"HRMarketer has proven itself as an invaluable part of our marketing efforts. Since using HR Marketer, our press releases are getting wider distribution and best of all, even better search engine exposure than past releases that were sent out through a major press release outlet. Finding and exhibiting at conferences, tradeshows and expos is a marketer's dream with HR Marketer. But most of all, what has surprised and impressed me the most is the hands-on support that we receive from the HR Marketer team." - Amanda Trombley, President, BeelinerSurveys

“ProcessWorks, Inc. has been using HRmarketer.com for just a few months but we’re already seeing a return on our investment. We have several senior level executives with excellent speaking and presentation experience. I don’t have the time to scour the regional and national industry organizations for speaking opportunities. The frequent email notices I receive from HRmarketer let me know which organizations are looking for speakers and which topics are open. This is a huge time-saver for me. We also introduced a new FSA communication tool last year on CD-ROM. The feedback from our clients and referral sources told us we had come up with something pretty innovative. We want to leverage this and have signed up to receive notices of award programs. We hope to gain additional visibility by entering the CD-ROM in the multiple award programs. Finally, the media tools have been another time-saver for us. We’re able to centralize our regional media lists and can quickly send out press releases. In addition, we can track how many people have viewed them. This is a great way to quantify marketing efforts. We know there is a lot more to the site and we look forward to integrating into our initiatives even more in the future.” - Susan Shimshak, Director of Marketing & Communications, ProcessWorks, Inc.

"Our HRmarketer membership is the best marketing investment we’ve made in over a decade.

It is a wonderful service. You don't know how often we say how glad we are we found you!" - Angela Rao-Brown (SPHR), Executive Vice President, Effective Resources, Inc.

HR Marketer is helping us to become our own PR firm. We are only one month into the process, and our second press release resulted in 3 phone calls from the media. The entire staff has been friendly and responsive. I would recommend this service to anyone who does marketing to HR professionals." - Jonathan Levy, CEO, Fair Measures

"As a non-profit think tank, educator, and association working to help individuals and organizations shift to a Talent Mindset, the Human Capital Institute doesn't have a big staff or budget for marketing and PR.

I use the site to send press releases and announcements, and to post events and subject matter experts in the directories. Thanks to HRMarketer's Alerts, it's as if I have an extra pair of eyes to keep abreast of key conference, speaking, and press opportunities. Perhaps best of all, the My Marketing Plannerfeature keeps me organized and on top of deadlines. HRMarketer has become the Personal Assistant I can't afford!" - Andrea J. Miller, VP, Communications, Human Capital Institute

We're also going to join some membership associations, based on what we found in HR Marketer. The service has been great!" - Matt Pitchford, Marketing, TruStar Solutions (formally IIRC)

"HR Marketer's media relations is impressive. We needed help with an upcoming press release for a highly-strategic announcement. One day before meeting with the planning team, we submitted it to Elrond Lawrence at HR Marketer media relations. On short notice, we received great feedback and editing suggestions that helped the release cut through the clutter and strengthen its news value. Elrond also provided sound advice on media distribution methods that would complement HR Marketer's distribution system and make the most out of our limited budget. We’re very pleased to have a personal media relations professional available to us as part of our HR Marketer membership." - Sandy Riser, Vice President, Business Development, Enwisen, Inc.

"I really want to thank HR Marketer Media Relations for helping to write our latest press release. The press release resulted in two invitations to write articles for two different HR journals.

What a great service you provide." - Cindy Mustful, Sr. Vice President, Business Development, Center for Talent Retention

HR Marketer is a well-developed tool that integrates so many different functions seemlessly. It really simplifies and covers the bases on so many PR functions. Best of all--it's easy to use.

There are many opportunities – trade show, speaking and editorial – we would not have been aware of without HR Marketer. Most of these opportunities are brought to our attention with lead times that we did not have before. Because of the increase in lead time, HR Marketer allows us to focus on our objectives for each opportunity, rather than submitting something for the sake of making a deadline. We really appreciate that!" - Current Client - New York, NY

"HRmarketer is a great service with unbelievable room to continue to grow within the HR industry and into parallel industries. With my company not originally in the HR industry, HRmarketer was a great service that I couldn't wait to happen to my industry. We now find that we are about to expand our core business into the HR industry. We are on the fringe of jumping into the ring to play with the "big boys". HRmarketer for us is about to rapidly go from... "Great Idea!" --to-- "Indispensable part of our rollout and growth strategy". HRmarketer is enabling this "David" to have a go at all of the "Goliaths". - Tony "David" Lillios - San Francisco, CA USA. Formally with Speck Design where he was a Co-Founder (an Inc. 500 company for two consecutive years)

"With a background of more than 15 years in journalism when I made the transition to marketing, I figured my most daunting task would be building a strong list of contacts. I was floored when our co-founder introduced me to HRmarketer. I was probably able to trim months off the ramping-up process. And that doesn’t even begin to take into account the quality and quantity of the personal attention I received. They made me feel like I was HRmarketer’s most important client, and I’m probably a bit more skeptical than most, considering my background. Finally, I can’t say enough about the press release review service. After writing a few thousand major-market newspaper stories, I submitted my first press release to HRmarketer with more than a little bit of apprehension that they could improve the product. But Human Resources is a different game, and HRmarketer plays in the big leagues. Their revisions made a world of difference." - Brian Higgins, Media Manager, JobFlash

"The genius of HR Marketer comes in its deceptively-simple combination of smart technology and back-to-basics customer service. In the eyes of this 14-year PR professional, the crucial ingredient is a savvy understanding of the services marketing and PR people need, but never have time to do -- tracking publications and their staffs, along with conferences, speaking opportunities, award opportunities and more. When I worked at Ketchum public relations, these duties kept nearly two full-time staff occupied. HR Marketer enables hundreds of clients to share the wealth and reap the benefits together. And live people still answer the phone!" - E. Lawrence, PR Pofessional (formally with Ketchum Public Relations)


“It’s been a pleasure doing business with HR Marketer. They have been responsive to all of our needs.

Kirkpatrick, Director-Product Marketing & Quality Assurance,Travis Software Corp.


"One of my key marketing goals was to increase the number of speaking engagements in front of college recruiting audiences, and HRmarketer has given me the tools to achieve that goal. HRmarketer’s vast database of conferences and events enables me to review upcoming opportunities and apply for them with the click of a mouse. This year alone, I’ve secured three engagements at events that are aimed directly at my target audiences. The expertise of HRmarketer’s staff and its wide variety of resources ensure that I’m making the most out of my marketing dollars.” - Steven Rothberg, President and Founder , CollegeRecruiter.com

The following is an independent and unsolicited review by John Sumser from the publication, Electronic Recruiting News. The review was done in 2004.

"There are few tasks that are more onerous than the development of a basic press list and events calendar. Yet, the very budget of the vendor Marketing Department depends of having timely and accurate data in this area. Seasoned marketing professionals hate the raw data collection (lots of phone calls and return phone calls) while junior people are rarely any good at it. As a result, the core marketing database is often in disarray and needs to be reassembled, from scratch, for each new product launch, revision, event or budget.

There is a professional level tool available.

HR Marketer is an HR marketplace tool for marketers. It combines rigorously updated press lists, editorial calendars, event calendars and searchable press releases into a genuine weapon for marketing in our industry. HR Marketer allows a company to develop a detailed plan to position the company in the eyes of the editorial community that ultimately determines fate.

We've spent some time evaluating the product and believe that it will save money and improve results for marketing departments in the industry. Their customer service people helpfully suggested that we narrow the distribution list for a press release in order to save our brand integrity. The company clearly stands for effectiveness over volume. Try it out." - John Sumser, Electronic Recruiting News
