As an agency, we rely heavily on our client partners in order to achieve success. At iHEAR, we worked hand-in-glove with Robert on a daily basis to ensure that the marketing plans were sound and that the execution of each campaign was done with purpose and for specific goals. Robert provides cheerful yet firm direction. He is highly collaborative in his approach which inspires us to do our best work. His deep knowledge of on-line tactics often provided insights that guided us in optimizing our efforts. Under pressure, Robert remains cool and focused. A great and rare client!
