I have, and continue to, really enjoy working with Hartke Communications and Kimberly. For me, they are the right mix of professionalism, the personal touch, and simply getting it done. I feel involved and informed, and have loved the results. My goal is TV guest appearances, and I got exactly that. I was immediately invited back, and with Hartkes help, will continue to do so not only on that program and network, but others. I have complete confidence in Hartkes ability to make that happen. They are flexible and adaptable to any changes or suggestions I want to make - incorporating them, yet maintaining the PR expertise. I look forward to continuing our journey together. I highly recommend Hartke Communications, and am more than happy to be contacted about my experience working with them.

Hartke Communications has done an excellent job for us in perfecting editorials and connecting us with the media in key locations, and in translating English to Spanish when and where necessary. They are highly capable and I can recommend them without reservation.
