The team's knowledge and network of both traditional and modern media outlets along with their deep roots and connections to the Chicago led to tremendous direct results for us throughout our entire opening campaign. They brought a fresh, energetic perspective to our business, helped us spread the word throughout Chicago, and from top to bottom are some of my favorite people to work with.
