"I booked Brandon to speak with my students about journalism and marketing. He was awesome! He was able to relate to the kids on their level, while motivating them to think on another level. He was open and candid with the students which made them comfortable enough to open up and ask him questions.
The students really learned a lot from Brandon that day. I'm so glad he came!"

"Not long after I was appointed Executive Director, I'd received media inquiries from reporters about an issue that didn't concern my agency, but could've inadvertently implicated it in a controversial story.
I called Brandon and he immediately took care of the situation. Because of his swift and strategic actions, the agency's brand wasn't subject to delusive beliefs."
