Our Clients

Congratulations to Mary and the rest of the MSR team on this major milestone, which I have no doubt was made possible by the sincere passion for PR and personal dedication to your clients that I’ve seen since your earliest days. It's this commitment and the results that you consistently deliver that keeps me coming back. David Hsieh , CEO of Kaptivo, 5 time MSR client

MSR Communications was our knight in shining armor. We didn’t give the agency a lot to work with, and yet month-over-month, they kept us in the spotlight, driving issues and debates in the media that made us relevant to reporters. With MSR Communications on the PR side, we were able to accomplish what we needed on the business side. I would work with them again in a heartbeat. Bryta Schulz , Former Vice President of Marketing at Janrain

I’ve partnered with MSR in my companies 3 times over 20 years...from their infancy in the dotcom days through the established firm they’ve become today! Congratulations to Mary and team for reaching this amazing milestone with consistent excellence all along the way! Glen Vondrick , CEO of CoSo Cloud, 3 time MSR client

During the 10 years I partnered with MSR while at The Myers-Briggs Company, Mary and her team dramatically increased awareness and perception of the Myers-Briggs brand through PR and Social Media strategy, communications, and content creation. Ours was a partnership built on trust and a foundation of expertise, collaboration, and friendship -- you never let me down and always delivered incredible results! Leah Walling , Former Director of Marketing Communications at The Myers-Briggs Company, 2 time MSR client

I have hired MSR Communications no less than 5 times over the last decade. They are a top-notch firm of wonderful, highly skilled PR professionals. I highly recommend MSR to companies looking for a true communications partner who deliver results every time. Lisa Bergamo , Former Vice President of Corporate Communications at Actiance, 5 time MSR client

In my international career to date, I have come across only a few PR & Social agencies that are truly world class and global. MSR Communications is at the top of that list. They were an integral part of the AVG and Kentico success. Furthermore, I could not recommend them more highly for whatever challenge or opportunity you may face, anywhere in the world. Rock stars in every sense. James Hart , Former VP of Marketing at Kentico, 2 time MSR client

Congrats to everyone on the MSR team for reaching this milestone. It takes great people coupled with adaptability to consistently deliver and thrive as you have. Richard Gray , CEO of Brightday

They're experts at launching a new product entry into the marketplace with the right combination of strategic industry positioning and consumer relevance. They excel at creating media awareness. MSR is a valuable partner--organized, professional and highly skilled. Howard Gefen , Former Executive VP of Marketing & Business Development at Obopay

Congrats MSR! Your continued success comes as no surprise given the constant care and creativity you put into making sure we were always in the spotlight. Though we were on other side of the world and a mid-sized company, the ongoing feature coverage you generated did much to boost our thought leadership and brand awareness as a true global player. Cheers! Robert Pinkas , VP of Marketing at Kentico
