Testimonials From Clients



Venmark International became the publicity partner of many companies before the term "partner" became popular. We're easy to work with and produce measurable results.


"I've been with Xuron for over 22 years now and believe that Venmark was responsible for significantly growing our sales."

- Dennis Shores, VP Accounting & Finance


  XURON Corp.

"Thank you for the amazing results. Our web site traffic and product interest has grown tremendously because of the services Venmark has provided. Especially the fabulous photography! Our online store is producing sales every day as a result of the exposure we have received."

- Dennis Aikman, Sales Manager


  Dampney Company

"Rex-Cut had a record breaking year in sales for 2007. I have to give you credit in helping us achieve this goal. Your expertise at brand marketing is the best that I have experienced in my 20 years in sales. Your press releases are extremely well written and the photography is dramatic. This is evident in the amount of exposure we get every month in many major industrial publications and websites. On your recommendation, the development of our website has had a dramatic impact on the number of leads generated by your press releases. In addition, we can analyze the effectiveness of our projects with Venmark."

- Bob Costa, Director of Sales and Marketing


  Rex-Cut Products, Inc.

"Thanks for your help in presenting our products to the media. Etco's new unisex FlatSnap connector was selected as one of "Electronic Products" magazine's best products of the year for 2007."

- Sean Dunn, Marketing Director


  ETCO Incorporated

"Our web site traffic for unique visitors increased by 11% and 18% in September and October; compared to the average of the previous eight months. The product publicity about our metal grommets is definitely responsible for a lot of this increase. Venmark's ability to develop publicity concepts that convey the benefits of our metal grommets is quite unique and the proof is in the quality of editorial exposure and the resulting web traffic!"

- Ken Raifman, President


  RNR Plastics, Inc.

"By continuing our regular schedule of publicity releases during the down times, I think we planted a lot of seeds that are now bearing fruit - our sales are up and best of all, we continue to reach new markets, helping to diversify our customer base. I recently had a phone call from one of our Manufacturer's Reps who told me that he was bombarded with inquiries for Xuron products - he wondered if we were doing some kind of new advertising. To me the answer is simple - it's the publicity. Also, our Web traffic continues to grow on a monthly basis. I can't think of a better, or more cost-effective way for us to reach so many markets."

- Abby Robey, Sales & Marketing Mgr.


  Xuron Corp.

"Integrated marketing between the trade and professional magazines and the Web is definitely the way to go. I searched for Meller Optics on the Web and couldn't believe the listings! The consistent publicity program we've had for over 25 years now has the additional payoff of increasing our visibility on the Web and improving our search engine ranking. I look forward to seeing you again next month."

- David A. Lydon, President


  Meller Optics, Inc.

"The publicity we have received in Chile and Argentina has resulted in business we otherwise would not have gotten. We are also receiving Web site visits from companies there. In fact, we recently received a $35,000.00 order and know that Venmark International is the only source for it. Furthermore, there was no agent involved and we didn't have to pay a commission to anyone. Those orders are very profitable! Thanks again for all your work over the past 28 years."

- Matthew Brennan, President


  ESCO Tool

"As a result of your publicity, a major national distributor has selected another one of our products for inclusion in their catalog and Web site. The credibility we receive from being featured in the product news sections of leading publications and Web sites helps us a great deal in our distributor development and support efforts."

- Art Stafford, President


  Stafford Manufacturing Corporation

"As a result of the "SAIL Magazine" publicity you got for us, we have received several phone calls from prospective customers and have been contacted by a major national marine distributor who wants us to quote on developing several new products for them. This business could be huge and really illustrates the power of product publicity and Venmark's ability to make things happen for us. Thanks."

- Art Stafford, President


  Stafford Manufacturing Corporation

"Boy, you guys really do hit all the magazines... I just ran across our compass product highlighted in "RV News" and we've sold over 200 units since we started the campaign."

- Jim Kirk, Business Development


  OceanServer Technology, Inc.

"Clearly, the "Venmark Formula" is a success. Over the years, our product promotions consistently receive widespread exposure in both domestic and international publications. Furthermore, as the same traditional publications (print media) merge with digital formats, our product promotions now appear in both formats; doubling our coverage. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same for ETCO Incorporated's paid advertisements. Once again, thank you for the exceptional work. It has been a pleasure working with you these past 10 years."

- John Macaluso, VP Corporate Marketing


  ETCO Incorporated

"Yes, I am loving the press we are getting; some good leads as well. The Weldy Tool showing the PVC welding is fantastic and we have sold many kits as a direct result."

- Jonathan Bixby, President


  Malcom Company Inc.

"We are seeing many direct inquiries as a result of the recent press releases that you have done for us with links to our Web site. We can track our actual results and the way that we know this is that many people are finding us on the Web by simply plugging in our URL that you have included in your press releases. Even if the URL isn't included, they're still searching for "Malcom" rather than searching for "plastic welding tools." This really demonstrates the importance of the brand recognition that product publicity helps achieve for us. The combination of having a content-packed, high-quality Web site and a coordinated marketing strategy with press releases has produced many internet leads for our company. Because of the publicity, they're searching for Malcom directly, in addition to looking for our products."

- Jonathan Bixby, President


  Malcom Company, Inc.

"This past week I went to search engine Google and did a search for "field simulation fiber optic" and we had 2 hits out of the first 3 listings for the FIBER LAB products. This is really excellent since we don't really do anything special to obtain high listings for our products."

- Gary Miller, Business Development


  M2 Optics, Inc.

"To date we've received a total of 422 sales leads and we are still receiving requests four months later. That response, in our experience, was spectacular!"

- Matthew Brennan, President


  ESCO Tool

"We have noticed a significant increase in "hits" on our Website after each of the product releases you submit to the various magazines has been published. This is validated through the use of Urchin Software which lists the web addresses of all visitors to our Website. We appreciate your efforts."

- Bob Glanville, President


  Westfall Manufacturing Company

"On behalf of Aved Electronics I would like to thank Venmark for the expert handling of our press release material. The consistent exposure of our press releases has brought in more opportunities in one year than all my print advertising combined, and at a fraction of the cost. Venmark’s simple, straightforward format helps Aved get new products in front of potential designers with minimal effort. Once again, thank you."

- Rich Kurth, General Manager


  Aved Electronics, Inc.

"We see a lot of catalog requests on our website with the comments section referring specifically to the title of a particular press release by name. This shows me that our publicity efforts attract prospects to our website. It also lets me know which press release topics generate the most market interest and further illustrates the value of a consistent publicity program."

- John Macaluso, VP Corporate Marketing


  ETCO Incorporated

"I am writing to let you know how pleased we have been with the success of the publicity campaign. As a result of this visibility, many of our customers think we are doing a lot of costly direct advertising. Working with you has been a very cost effective way to promote our products."

- John Nicholson, Manager, Specialty Products


  Nuclear Metals, Inc.

"I think some of the reason for its success is the quality of the photos, and the clear concise editorial content is certainly attractive to the editors of your selected list of publications. In addition your experience and reputation for representing quality products with a distinctive photo and novel copy is not only unequaled, but also more cost effective than print ads."

- James H. Aimone, Executive VP


  Clark-Cutler-McDermott Co.

"Our publicity campaign has paid off!! Last month alone, we shipped $25,000 worth of battery packs to a new customer. I am certain that this success was directly attributed to Venmark's combination of eye-catching imagery and concise writing."

- Rich Kurth, General Manager


  Aved/Generation Electronics

"As a result of our latest publicity for the FL 3200, we have closed a $15,000 commercial order, are in the process of closing another $15 - $20k order with Boeing, and I'm working on one for the Navy that could result in a >$50k order. I should get both of them."

- Gary Miller, Business Development


  M2 Optics, Inc.

"Not only does the international exposure make my sales job easier, but we can actually track sales to specific publicity releases. We can directly attribute purchase orders from Japan as a result of the publicity being written in their native languages."

- Douglas E. Snader, VP Sales & Marketing


  Tru-Connector Corporation

"Please accept my gratitude for all of us here at American LEWA, Inc. for all the fantastic work you've done for us. By creating a consistent and effective publicity program, you've generated new excitement for American LEWA products. This new 'excitement' is clearly evident in our daily quotation activity."

- Joshua Harding, Marketing Communications


  American LEWA, Inc.

"Our products and services are far from unique to the industries to which we sell, but the promotion of our name and related products is! The partnership with Venmark we have enjoyed and benefited from over the years has contributed immensely to our success. Thank you for being our #1 behind the scene salesperson."

- Charles Nelson, President


  NELCO Products, Inc.

"We applaud you for the excellent results from the marketing programs that Gilway Technical Lamp has conducted with Venmark International. Gilway has staged publicity programs in the past. However, we've never had rapid results like this year. We have witnessed a surge of customer inquiries via the phone, trade magazine responses, and our Web site."

- Tom McLoughlin, President


  Gilway Technical Lamp

"The response to these publicity releases has provided a concrete measure of the relative importance of different publications, markets, and products to our future growth. This information has allowed us to precisely tailor our marketing efforts into areas with the highest payoff. Again, my thanks for your assistance. DTI’s business has more than doubled since we have been working together, and the growth rate is accelerating. The results from working with you have far exceeded our expectations, at very low cost. I look forward to continuing our relationship with Venmark."

- Michael A. Kempkes, Vice President Marketing


  Diversified Technologies, Inc.

"I just wanted to drop you a line to say congratulations and thanks a lot for the success of your recent publicity release for our thermally conductive plastics. The response was fantastic, the phone was ringing off the hook! This is by far the most cost effective marketing experience I have ever had. Thanks again."

- James P. Mack, President


  Mack Plastics

"Your ability to create product photos with a narrative, which gets desired results, is deemed by us to be a gift that is rare and unique."

- Ernest R. Fenton, President


  INSULTAB, Inc.

"In the end, your publicity delivered more exposure and higher credibility than an ad could bring us - at a fraction of the cost. Thanks again."

- Andrea Mainardi, Marketing Communications


  NEPTCO Incorporated

"The response we have received from all of the press releases you have done for us over the past year has been overwhelming."

- Tina Ruggiero, Marketing


  Coto Wabash

"About 1 year ago, you prepared a press release for distribution to European publications; moreover, the text was translated into German and French to increase the number of publications that might pick up the release. From leads generated from that release, we have increased our European customer base by bout 20-30%"

- Robert H. Fay, Marketing Manager


  Battery Engineering, Inc.
