“I have worked with Rick on many consulting and strategic engagements. He is the consummate professional and his annual bench-marking surveys give him a superb perspective on the industry. The fact that Rick is a C.P.A. and J.D. gives Rick the ability to understand the key financial and operational elements of a public relations firm and to help his clients drive towards success.”
“I have known and worked with Rick for many years both as an agency principal and over the last 12 years as an advisor to agency owners. I have referred clients to Rick for help with valuations, advice on selling or acquiring, and guidance on key financial issues. In all cases, my clients have valued his expertise, his diligence and his commitment to working within their budget and timing requirements.”
