Quotes

“I've not seen that arrangement before […]pretty cool”

 

- John Sheridan, Managing Partner and co-founder of SocialMedia404

 

"The SMPK has flexible design possibilities so that it suits every brand without having to make compromises to the functionality. In this way every press kit is unique and custom made. Its important that the blogger or journalist can navigate their way around the SMPK,  but the task of combining design and functionality has worked really well.”

 

- Olaf Haarsma, Creative Director - Swordfish Media

“Press releases are nearly useless. They typically start with a tremendous amount of top-spin, they contain pat-on-the-back phrases and meaningless quotes.”

 

 - Tom Foremski, Journalist Silicon Valley Watcher
