Jeffrey Lee, Owner of ET Enterprises and Growth Marketing Manager at CJ Pony Parts/American Powertrain

Leslie is the most thorough and thoughtful PR person I’ve worked with. She has her clients back and best interests at heart and will go above and beyond and even work with everyone involved to make sure your company’s story is told properly. In a modern world where everybody says, “Well, AI can do that”. Well, I can tell you that it absolutely cannot match the persistence, connections, media relationship building, push, and follow-through of a true professional like Leslie.


Eric Trimble, Marketing Manager, GFS Chemicals  

Leslie is great at networking and getting press pick-ups, editorial inclusions, and so much more. She is also great at research, writing, and collaborating.


Gary McCoy, Executive Director, Spring Manufacturers Institute

I had the privilege of working with Leslie during her time as PR manager of The Marx Group. I was always amazed at how Leslie could turn out large numbers of editors and writers for the news conference and special events we hosted for clients. Through her hard work and perseverance, she uncovered a lot of editorial opportunities for clients to boost their brand awareness.


Kerri Petersen, former VP, Marketing & Creative Services, The Marx Group

Leslie has been a great asset to The Marx Group for many years as a PR Manager. She is a total rock star when it comes to putting on events such as News Conferences at SEMA and AAPEX. She knows how to work her magic and get people to attend these events! She also knows how to get the local government to recognize and attend company open house events.
 
And even when it seems like it might be impossible to get editorial opportunities and multi-media interviews at shows, she comes through with flying colors. Leslie is dependable and gets the job done. Thanks for all your work, Leslie!

Zan Martin, Former President and Owner of Martin & Company  Advertising

Leslie Allen is the consummate PR professional. When I was working at another agency as Vice President prior to forming my own, I interviewed and hired her without hesitation. Once my agency was firmly formed, I tracked her down and hired her as PR Director of Martin & Company Advertising. Because of her excellent skills, we won numerous National Awards, including a Gold from the Automotive Public Relations Council. She is by far the best PR professional I have ever had the pleasure to work with, and we would recommend her in a heartbeat!
