The client submitted this review online.
BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the Communications Manager at a software company that serves channel partners and end-customers from around the globe. I am in charge of global communications, including media relations.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Bob Gold & Associates?
We were looking to enhance our company’s brand awareness in the US market. We have limited internal resources and turned to an international PR network of agencies that connected us with Bob Gold & Associates to support us in the US market.
What were your goals for this project?
The main goals of our cooperation with the agency were to improve customer awareness about our company/its products in the US, position our company as a clear market leader, enhance our thought leadership profile, and to generate an ongoing flow of media mentions.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor?
We searched for an international PR agency with a strong footprint in the US. We have contacted several agencies featured in various lists or reviews, studied their proposals and selected the one that was strong in our sector and had several partner agencies across the globe, including Bob Gold & Associates.
Describe the scope of their work in detail.
After having selected the umbrella agency, we had a few workshops so they got familiar with our company, our value propositions and core messages, and agreed on the optimal scope of work. Bob Gold & Associates works tightly together with the umbrella agency as well as our team – we have regular conference calls in order to update each other on new opportunities and align on priorities. We have dedicated daily contact people on each side and maintain an online work-in-progress list.
What was the team composition?
We work closely with Account Coordinator, Vice President as well as the Founder and CEO when there are some major things to discuss. We have a matrix project organization with the agency network.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Since we started our cooperation with Bob Gold & Associates, our media coverage in the US has increased significantly, reflecting also in improved web traffic and SEO statistics. The agency has also arranged some outstanding speaking opportunities at US industry events.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
The workflow was ideal for us – there was no “prescribed” way of communication, but we heard from each other when needed, via email or conference calls. The team is ambitious, proactive, and really wants to help our company reach our goals. They are as punctual as a Swiss watch and always highly responsive. We never feel like a mere client, but perceive the agency as a trustworthy partner that is always open to any questions or concerns we may have.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
We were impressed by the agency’s quick understanding of our rather complex industry and business. They always try to see a larger picture and don’t limit themselves to the scope of work. For example, we can always ask them for their opinion or advice, even though it's not directly related to current projects. They have some great writers, so the content they create hardly needs any edits, which allows us to move forward fast. They also have a strong network of media contacts, making it easy for them to secure great publishing opportunities.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Right now everything seems to be “best practice."

Bob Gold & Associates led a traditional PR campaign and product launch, writing bylined articles and pitching to various media outlets.
The number of articles and the amount of visibility have increased markedly since Bob Gold & Associates was first engaged. Their consistent communication, responsiveness, and client-focused approach justify the investment and make them a valuable partner.
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the CEO and founder of Global Net Solutions. We manufacture smart security and business intelligence solutions. Our primary solution is the S-Badge, which is a secure, smart, and safe access control badge.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Bob Gold & Associates?
We needed help to start marketing the product, and spreading the word about our company as a whole.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Bob Gold & Associates started by meeting with us to understand the business and what differentiates us from the competition. They advise on key messaging and help us highlight the key factors of our product. They also identified the markets we need to target. We decided to target CES 2018 in Las Vegas as part of a strategy to achieve maximum exposure.
In terms of content, they refined the information about the company and our leadership bios. They also created bylined articles. Using their contacts, they led the engagement and outreach to various media outlets.
What is the team composition?
I work with several members of their team, including the director of marketing and the director of PR. I also work directly with Bob (principal, Bob Gold & Associates) on the high-level design and strategy.
How did you come to work with Bob Gold & Associates?
I happened to drive by their office in Redondo Beach during the time I was looking to hire a PR firm. I stopped in and met Bob. We clicked right away and set up a formal meeting. He sounded very interested in the product, and he had excellent media contacts. I felt he was interested on a personal level and not just as a business relationship.
How much have you invested with them?
We spent $15,000 plus out-of-pocket expenses.
What is the status of this engagement?
The main project took place between October 2017–January 2018. We’re still working on and off on various projects for Global Net Solutions, and I’m talking to them about doing work for another company that I own.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
They did a great job introducing our company to the world. The amount of exposure they were able to get us in three months’ time was excellent. The exposure at CES alone was more than 150,000 people in just one day. They also set up a lot of interviews at the event, which introduced us to a variety of news agencies and reporters. We were featured in a number of articles, including the CES magazine. They did a wonderful job crafting a successful PR campaign and launch. In particular, Bob's experience and guidance were very valuable.
How did Bob Gold & Associates perform from a project management standpoint?
Their team is on top of everything. We had a weekly meeting leading up to CES. They focused on what needed to be done and streamlining the approval process. Given the short time frame, they quickly got the project going in the right direction. They were very professional and focused on success.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I really appreciate their dedication. They have a very good relationship with their clients. The way they got to know us on a personal level definitely made a huge difference. Unlike with a larger firm, I never felt like we got lost amongst their clients. Their focused attention has a huge impact not only on the value they offer but also in the message that is sent to the end customer. Their caring is reflected in their work.
Are there any areas they could improve?
We haven't done any digital marketing yet, which is where I think we need to focus next. I’m not sure why we didn't discuss digital marketing in our initial meeting. I don't know if it’s something they offer. It would make them really stand out if they did offer digital marketing alongside the traditional PR.

transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I'm the executive director and founder of the Media Entertainment Services Alliance (MESA). We're a trade group that communicates with content creators and represents the vendor point of view in software evolutions.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Bob Gold & Associates?
We wanted to expand our reach across the industry and make sure that we communicated our products and our offerings effectively.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Bob Gold & Associates distribute our press releases to a broader audience. From a practical perspective, they get people engaged and involved in what we're doing. Since they’re a good representative of my brand outside of my sphere, we rely on them to drive people to our events. They broaden our reach, and engage people in what we do.
What is the team composition?
Being the founder, I tend to work more with Bob (Founder and CEO, Bob Gold & Associates), but his team works directly with my team. Bob and I will conceptualize something that he will then pass along to his team, and my team will facilitate.
How did you come to work with Bob Gold & Associates?
We knew each other through our events, and also through him turning clients on to what we do.
What is the status of this engagement?
We have worked with them for almost five years, and are still currently working with them.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Whether it's social media, e-mail, or driving traffic to our site, Bob's been very effective in achieving results. We’ve seen increases in subscribers, clicks, and likes, because of his social media work.
How did Bob Gold & Associates perform from a project management standpoint?
Part of his team interacting with my team is making sure deliverables are on track. They’re very project management-oriented. Bob’s done a wonderful job in terms of keeping me on schedule and keeping the pieces in place even when things are incredibly hectic.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Bob’s an incredibly personable talent in the industry. I only rely on a few people to represent my brand on stage. I call them my champions, and Bob is a champion. When moderating a session, he allows people the opportunity to speak their mind and is engaged without being overbearing. At the same time he pushes people to stay invested, keep connected, and keep things moving forward.
Are there any areas they could improve?
I don't have much advice in terms of how he should run it any differently, and I certainly don't have any issues. He provides a good product, a good profit, and good process management.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Vendors will sometimes use a trade association as their PR company. It is nice to have Bob as a professional and trusted partner to offload some work if my team ever gets in over their heads in terms of PR need.

transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
Penthera is a technology company specializing in the mobile video viewing experience. Our software improves video streaming and download processes and resolves buffering and network overload issues. As chief revenue officer, I’m in charge of all sales and marketing.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Bob Gold & Associates?
We want to be seen in the marketplace as the go-to experts in our field, fueled by strong PR and marketing campaigns. They provide those outsourced services.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
We have meaningful weekly calls where we discuss our marketing and PR initiatives. They keep a very detailed spreadsheet of the different topics we discuss and the initiatives that come from those discussions. They ask what we hope to accomplish and help with research studies. Once we complete the research, they help us turn those findings into good stories for press releases. They constantly follow up and bring new ideas and suggestions to us on a regular basis. I recently hired a new head of marketing who will take the lead on our side of the relationship with them.
They’re also involved in our outward-facing communication and our conference and event scheduling. They help create sales collateral materials, including PowerPoint decks, sell sheets, and video content.
What is the team composition?
I work with Bob (Principal, Bob Gold & Associates), Roxanne (Account Director, Bob Gold & Associates), and Linda (Senior Account Executive, Bob Gold & Associates). There is another gentleman in the background who runs numbers and analytics.
How did you come to work with Bob Gold & Associates?
Our CEO has a long-term working relationship with Bob. When I joined the company in October, I inherited the partnership. I met with members of the team and really like them. I decided to move forward with them.
What is the status of this engagement?
The relationship began before I joined the company and is ongoing.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
The process works really well, but we’re not measuring statistics yet. I’ve been with the company for a few months and am building out our upper sales funnel analytics. Anecdotally, Bob and his team fielded a research study that we published. Partly thanks to their contributions, I’m in the contract stage of a huge deal that will pay for the past couple years of their involvement. That’s just one deal and we expect more. They’re absolutely beneficial.
How did Bob Gold & Associates perform from a project management standpoint?
I give them delivery dates and they push me to meet deadlines. They make sure I stay on task and on schedule. They do a wonderful job.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They’re all about the relationship, they don’t feel like a vendor. They act as an extension of our marketing department and are genuine partners. I really appreciate that.
Are there any areas they could improve?
I’m still trying to feel out their strengths. Their heritage is in the cable media space, while I have a digital media marketing background. I’d love to see them grow their expertise in that field.

Exceeding all expectations, they increased brand awareness within the target market and began exploring other markets. Their attention to detail, commitment, and persistence in following up on projects make them a reliable long-term partner.
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
Our company produces electronics: remote controls, sensor technology for security devices, and more. We build our products mostly for OEM companies and one of our primary markets is cable and satellite television. I'm a marketing director.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Bob Gold & Associates?
Our brand does not always appear on the products that we produce and the solutions that we create for customers. We wanted to raise awareness about what we do and the depth of our involvement with our customers within specific industries, so we were looking for a public relations company to help us with that.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
We've been working with them to raise our brand awareness within the cable television industry and we have expanded that role. They help refine messaging and marketing strategies, create press releases/articles/and social media posts, and do media outreach to targeted industry segments.
What is the team composition?
We have a primary point of contact, but we work with their whole team – they have a very team-oriented environment.
How did you come to work with them?
We used public relations agencies in the past. At that time, we were looking for a company that could address the specific marketplace we were targeting, so we got some referrals from the media. Bob Gold & Associates got good feedback from the media and other clients, so we thought they'd be a good fit for us.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with them in October 2016 and the relationship is ongoing.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We've definitely had positive results based on the parameters we set for our yearly and quarterly objectives. They've done very good work in terms of expanding our outreach beyond what we originally engaged them for. They increased our brand awareness within our target market, so we started looking at other areas we wanted them to focus on.
How did they perform from a project management standpoint?
They're great at following up with the project and have excellent attention to detail. We have regular meetings and phone calls.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They care about our well-being and genuinely want to see us succeed. They're like an extension of our marketing department, listening to us and executing what they've promised. We always feel like we're their number one client and I appreciate that.
Are there any areas they could improve?
I'm very happy with them, so there are not a lot of areas I'd want them to improve. I'd like them to continue keeping up with us in terms of volume, which they're doing. In fact, we would like them to be more involved in our day-to-day business and I think they'll be receptive to this idea.
