Having The MicDrop Agency as our partner Marketing & PR firm has truly moved the needle for us. Document Crunch is growing rapidly and we needed an agency that was knowledgeable, adaptable and that would grow with us.
Working with The MicDrop Agency has been so amazing. Having Katie as my publicist has been great because every step of the way she’s always been there with encouragement to help me understand why it’s important for me to tell my story in the first place.
In over 20 years of running a software company, I’ve worked with many PR agencies. Working with The MicDrop Agency has been a completely different experience. From booking speaking engagements to podcast interviews to personal branding to leading my book launch, everything I’ve thrown at them has been beyond my expectations. It has allowed me to extend my personal brand and corporate brand to new clients, prospects and opportunities.
