    My office relies on Amy Flurry and her team to do the heavy lifting of keeping an updated media list. It’s a thankless job and her list is a valuable tool to keep key contacts at my fingertips. This sole proprietor is so very grateful!!!!

  4. Heather Ison, Interior Design Photographer

    Both the media list & Recipe for Press have been a game changer to my business this past year. I am an interior design photographer & with the tools I learned from Amy’s book and the contacts I now have from the media list I have been able to put my clients in print publications consistently all year long. I can’t recommend it enough to have these two tools if you are in the interior design industry.

  5. Claire Staszak / Centered By Design

    Using Amy Flurry Media as my PR team was one of my best decisions last year! Amy’s guidance and relationship building helped my firm to land a national showhouse and two national print features, along with a high profile online feature as well. A true believer in collaboration, creative ideas and a champion of those in the design industry, it was a pleasure to brainstorm, work with and learn from Amy. She has a wonderful ability to put you at ease, but still give it to you straight. Both qualities I truly appreciated in a PR professional.

  6. Melissa Moriarty

    Wow this list is a total life-saver AND a game changer. Not only is it helpful for finding the right point of contact at the right publication, but there’s also great insider knowledge in the Notes section with commentary around recent career movement, special rules to follow (if any), and sometimes the editorial calendar for the year. The list is worth every penny.

  7. Ruthann Baler

    Congratulations for spearheading a business that many of us solo entrepreneurs need! I used to work for agencies and I know they spent thousands on media intelligence software. The Recipe for Press Media list makes it possible for independents to be more strategic and successful (and save time!) in our media outreach. I will be sure to refer you to my colleagues.
