Travel & Real Estate

“We have had the pleasure of working with the Turner PR firm for approximately eight months on our resort development in Bend, Oregon. During this period we have been extremely impressed with the team approach their firm utilizes to serve their clients. Their commitment to understanding their client’s needs, product and the message is exceptional. I can without a doubt, say that they have lived up to their end of the bargain and they have exceeded my expectations. I have never seen a Public Relations firm deliver quality results in such a short period of time.”

— Thomas Hix, President, Hix Rubenstein Companies for the Pronghorn Development in Bend, Oregon
“I have interviewed and hired many different consultants since optioning the Pronghorn development in 1998. From land planners and architects to web companies, ad agencies and public relations firms… and Turner PR is a definite stand out when it comes to consultants. The firm has an amazing energy and an acute understanding of our business. They hit the ground running and have not quit. It’s great to have an advocate that truly loves our project. The audit exercise was very beneficial to Pronghorn — not only did it help their team gain a deep understanding of Pronghorn, but it helped us to better understand ourselves. I praise them for putting a great team together. In fact, I have already referred their firm to other companies and I will not hesitate to sing the Turner praises in the future.”

— Scott Denney, President of Pronghorn Properties, Inc.
“Turner PR Rocks. You are dumber than you look if you don’t add them to your team.”

— Richard Keith, President & CEO, Private Escapes Destination Clubs
“As a rapidly growing resort community, Bear Mountain was seeking a public relations partner who could familiarize themselves quickly with our range of product and help to make an immediate impact in the U.S. market.

We look forward to continuing to build our U.S. market awareness with Turner over the coming year.”

— Russ Cowan, Executive Director, Marketing & Sales
“Turner PR has been an exceptional business partner for Metro Brokers, Inc. They have met with us on a monthly basis to gauge our on going public relations goals in the real estate arena — in fact when we mentioned that we would like to strengthen our coverage in certain areas and be perceived as industry leaders — they stepped up to the challenge and exceeded our expectations. I would whole heartedly recommend that you consider Turner PR for your public relations partner!”

— Maria Cook, Executive Director, Metro Brokers Inc.
“Turner PR has represented Hidden Meadow Ranch Lodge & Club in Arizona’s White Mountains for just over a year now and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results! The thing we love best is that they don’t sign you up and forget you; rather they initiate and keep the process moving onward and upward. The Turner team has great energy and enthusiasm, and we feel fortunate to have them on our side!”

— Casey Bolinger, Principal of Greenbrier Southwest Corporation, the developer of Hidden Meadow Ranch
“Turner PR has successfully launched The Palmyra Resort & Spa through a powerful U.S., UK & Jamaica media relations campaign. We challenged them to provide a fast, results driven launch and they delivered. Turner’s team understands real estate developments — they “get it” — and this knowledge and expertise continues to bring The Palmyra significant media coverage.”

— Geoff Landry, Director, The Palmyra Resort & Spa at Rose Hall
“Turner PR is professional, capable, thorough and fair, but this is not why you should consider them for your PR firm. I love working with people who seem to have “IT”, that is where their passions and talents collide. You’ll not meet a more passionate and talented group of people who not only LOVE PR, but generate significant results. Turner PR has my full endorsement.”

Fashion & Consumer Brands

“Turner PR has done a great job for Collective. They bring both the depth and breadth of coverage of a large firm combined with the service and understanding of our brand and culture of a small, boutique PR firm.”

— Bruce Pettet, President and CEO, Collective Licensing International (Airwalk & Vision brands)
“In the relatively short time we’ve been working with Turner, we’ve been consistently impressed with the energy, enthusiasm and dedication of the Turner team. They bring key insights and industry expertise to every assignment. They have demonstrated an ability to quickly understand our brand, our people and our products and then translate this knowledge into results-oriented PR strategies.”

— Kaia Akre, President, Cutter & Buck
“I’ve known Chris and her team for over seven years and have found myself in the most flattering of professional positions: recommending them to a $1 billion+ public company as one of the premier branded PR agencies in the country and yet again with a division of Enterprise Rental Car. Their dedication to detail is relentless, yet their ability to persuade and command is one of partnership and constructive reasoning rather than of pushing and getting their way at any cost. They have an extremely keen ability to honor and respect the brands they are associated with, NEVER causing the brand to feel they have lost their way relative to mission and vision.”

— Steven Moergen, Vice President of Sales, Giro® Footwear
“I rely on Turner PR as an extension of our internal staff. They’re professional and energized. Turner’s PR experience, contact base, and creative ideas complement our marketing initiatives throughout the year.”

— Laura Wisner, Communications and Internet Marketing Manager, Spyder Active Sports, Inc.
“I have contracted with Turner Public Relations on behalf of three separate organizations involving different golf consumer products. In each and every case Turner PR has exceeded my expectations and delivered the SIZZLE. For a PR firm to come through once I consider lucky, twice I consider good but three times is pure SKILL.”

— Wes Whittingham, Vice President Sales, King Power Enterprise Inc., former Director of Florsheim Golf
“I hired Turner PR almost a year ago. Right away I was impressed with their creativity and attention to detail. They are very professional and have helped to build better relationships between my company and the people we work with. Best of all, Turner has been able to secure more local and national PR exposure within their first few months than other firms did within a few years.”

— Andy Macdonald, Professional Skateboarder, Owner of Andy Mac Skateboards, Footwear, Helmets & Pads
“The Havana Joe brand would never have made it out of Spain and to the United States if it weren’t for Christine Turner’s PR help. Her ability to secure press coverage without advertising dollars was integral in establishing a new brand in the States. She landed our brand in numerous national magazines from Men’s Health to Harper’s Bazaar, national newspapers and national network television, including NBC’s Today Show. Her strategies, persistence and professionalism helped our team tremendously.”

— Michael Saitowitz, former president of Havana Joe Boots & Shoes, responsible for bringing brand from Spain to U.S.
“Turner PR helped position EMU as the leading Australian lifestyle footwear brand and a consistently major player in the press. These ladies are pros that function like a leg of our team. We always know they are going above and beyond to get the job done for us. Bottom line, Turner knows how to go after a story and how to get results.”

— Greg Licht, president, EMU Australia
“Turner Public Relations created & flawlessly executed a national PR campaign which resulted in top tier press coverage of the e-Stork product and web site. We attribute the successful acquisition of our company by eStyle, Inc. / babystyle.com, in part, to the credibility we gained through Chris’s PR successes. We highly recommend the TPR team to any organization who wants knowledgeable, dedicated, determined, results-oriented PR professionals.”

— Kathryn & David Besemer, founders of e-Stork
“Christine Turner took the time to understand who the YMCA is, she believes in our mission and as a consequence, she has helped to position us exceptionally well in the community.”

— Thomas K. Craine, President, YMCA of Metropolitan Denver
“In one month, Turner PR garnered more PR exposure for our brands than we accomplished ourselves in one year. Turner PR is the perfect combination of a specialty PR shop, with the media relationships of a big city firm. And I’ve worked with a lot of PR firms over the years. You couldn’t find more wonderful people to work with. Call me if you’d like to talk about their capabilities.”

— Linda Nielander, former VP of Marketing TARÉ7 (Airwalk)

Media

“As a TV producer who has worked at the top networks and cable stations including CBS, ABC, MSNBC and CNN, I have never worked with a more professional publicity firm. Turner PR completely gets the immediate turnaround deadline that happens in telelvision and they are beyond efficient when it comes to meeting all of the demands. I wish all of the other publicity firms that I work with operated like Turner PR on a daily basis. They are enthusiastic, smart, innovative and most important really fun to work with. They send me fantastic pitch ideas and they know exactly who they are pitching as it has never been a waste of my time.”

— Melissa Gerstein, Producer, CNBC
“Turner is among the best agencies I’ve worked with in this business. Not only do they provide information in a timely manner, but they go the extra mile and try to generate interesting ideas that they believe will appeal to our readers. They are also always willing to back up their ideas with imagery — not necessarily just photos but interesting graphics like the “evolution of a design or logo,” etc. Top to bottom, they’re a top-rate organization.”

— Lisa Girard, Apparel Editor, PGA Magazine
“In my experience as a journalist, Turner PR stands out as a PR firm that works hard to maintain both a pleasurable and productive professional relationship. Its representatives diligently keep me apprised of the latest and most relevant goings-on, and they are always efficient in obtaining interviews and information when I’m on deadline.”

— Elizabeth Exline: Contributing Editor, Estates West
“I have had the pleasure of working with Turner PR for a number of years on a variety of assignments regarding travel and luxury communities. From the first, agency associates have been helpful, timely, and gracious, providing me material as well as contacts to deadline — and to the point.”

— David M. Brown: Freelancer, Robb Report, Robb Report Vacation Homes, Arizona Foothills, Arizona Living
“The folks from Turner are great to work with. They understand our magazines and our audience and get us what we need when we need it. They are extremely sensitive to deadlines. I know if they call me it’s because they have something legitimate to talk about it. They do not waste my time and because of that have open access.”

— Mark Sullivan, Sports Intelligence, Footwear Intelligence, Textile Intelligence
