Here’s what some of my colleagues have to say:

• “I’ve known, met with, dealt with, and received press releases and other announcements from Kelli Ramirez for the past several years on behalf of Mimaki, in my position as Editor of Graphic Arts Magazine for almost 10 years here in Toronto. As I’m the one responsible for posting news items on our website and in our printed magazines, as well as other features, I can tell you without hesitation that she ranks in the top three on my list of PR reps that provide the best press releases and accompanying images. Here writing is clear, focused on user benefits (not just device features) and best of all, needs little or no editing from my end. This makes my job so much easier – and to be honest with you, means that they have a much better chance of running in tight-deadline situations. Another thing – she responds to my e-mails almost immediately. And if I need additional information or images, they’re always provided in a timely manner. Bottom line: If I needed a PR person to represent my company or brand, I would not hesitate for one moment to hire her. (FYI – And this from someone who was head writer in the Communications/PR Department of the Toronto Star, Canada’s largest daily newspaper, for 15 years). Please do not hesitate to call me of you require further comments.”
