Success Stories

We have worked with numerous vendors and experienced various levels of radio spot production. Rod Schwartz, hands down, produced the highest converting advertising radio spots for our company. The attention to detail and content is unmatched by anyone we have worked with in the past.

This guy is good! His product is as good as it gets. I strongly recommend Rod.

I can’t say enough positive comments about Rod. He took the time to get to know our community, its residents and what makes us stand above all the other Senior Living Communities in the area. He put together an ad campaign that told a story about us, i.e. what sets us apart from all the rest. He truly has a gift when it comes to ad/marketing campaigns and how to get the message across to the public.

Rod helps me stay on top of the marketing needs of our business. He is clearly an expert at what he does and is professional at all times.

Many may know Rod as a silky radio intonation which can lull you into buying almost anything. As he’s helped me with radio productions his skill in sound engineering is presented, unspoken. Have you ever seen an artist take something as rough and awkward has a log and as unruly as a chain saw and watched him fashion something as imperial as a Kodiak, as mystic as a wizard, or as beautiful as an eagle. That’s Rod Schwartz on a sound board. But. That’s the least of it. He has the seemingly uncanny knowledge of knowing when and where to apply and imply emphasis to the public ear. Radio knowledge is the least of it. He’s helped me understand when to use internal marketing – not to mention even more subtle ways of offering oneself, one’s ideas, one’s wares.

Within 3-4 months of the campaign kicking off, I began to see clients reaching out specifically for me, realtors upset with me because I was “stealing their clients” and most importantly increased listings and sales. In addition, I was typically introduced at Chamber events, Rotary meetings and WSU events as “Pullman’s Real Estate Expert” not by my choice but because the person doing the introduction decided to include that description on their own. The campaign was launched in about 2010 and in 2013 I was number 3 in the market and voted as Whitman County Association of Realtors “Realtor of the Year.” Today’s real estate market quite challenging and competitive; it is extremely difficult for a Realtor entering a new community. Rod’s expertise in marketing helped me build a brand for my business. From the creative radio campaign to his assistance with carrying the brand through all other mediums, he has helped me build a successful business. I highly recommend Rod to anyone that is looking to build their business.

Rod is a rock solid resource. Whether as a writer, voice talent or marketing consultant, Rod will not just finish the job on time, he will eat, breathe, and live the job until it is perfect. Don’t expect him to just slap something together, that’s not how he works. Rod wants every job to be something very special that stands out from all the rest. I give Rod my very highest recommendation.

Working with Rod Schwartz has been an extremely rewarding advertising collaboration. Rod is a true partner in making sure our services are known and understood by our potential clients and the community at large. His passion to communicate effectively, clearly, and well has positively impacted our organization at many levels. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Brenda SaltzerAscend

My experience with Rod and his creativity has helped my business grow for more than 20 years. His ideas never seem to wane and his enthusiasm is always refreshing. He has always worked hard to meet our goals and needs, and he makes sure the message is spot-on. As a student of marketing, Rod comes to meetings with a fresh approach and ideas to help his clients.

Rod’s talents and experience shine through when working with him on any project, small or large. His ideas are forward thinking, innovative, and very creative. I’ve enjoyed my working and personal relationship with Rod and look forward to many more projects with him.
