Testimonials

Here’s what our clients are saying about us…

In addition to being an effective strategic partner, Byrum & Fisk supported us with messaging, direct mail, media events, media placements, digital advertising, press conferences, editorial board meetings and other key tactics. We are pleased with their professionalism, expertise, responsiveness and creativity and would highly recommend them as a communications partner.”

Dr. Daveda Colbert
Superintendent of Wayne RESA

“Byrum & Fisk played a critical role in renewing the DIA’s millage and helping us drive a consistent and disciplined message, which clearly resonated with residents in Southeast Michigan. Their creativity, deep experience in metro Detroit and strong work ethic made them a huge asset to our team and I would highly recommend them for strategic communications efforts, crisis communications or campaigns.”

Dave Flynn
Senior Vice President at the Detroit Institute of Arts

“From writing and pitching press releases day to day, to crisis support, to providing media training and helping us advance a steady drumbeat of positive communications, Byrum & Fisk is a truly valuable member of our team. I would highly recommend them as your strategic communications partner.”

Dr. Monica L. Merritt
Superintendent of Plymouth-Canton Community Schools

“When it comes to effective Association communications to the press, public, your members and policymakers, there’s no firm that’s more aggressive, creative and effective than Byrum & Fisk. They’re hard-charging, proactive, responsive and you want them on your team during a tough fight.”

Spence Nevins
President of the Michigan Beer & Wine Wholesalers Association

“Plan the work, work the plan. Other firms talk a good game or seem to fly by the seat of their pants. With Byrum & Fisk, they create a plan and then execute to deliver seamless results and a steady drumbeat of communications for their clients. They have been a key member of our communications strategy, helping us consistently deliver a clear message to our members, lawmakers, allied groups, the press and beyond.”

Bob Allison
Deputy Director of the League of Conservation Voters

“Byrum & Fisk has been our key strategic communications partner on not one, but two, successful legislative and public relations efforts – one to require CPR as a graduation requirement in schools, the second to provide healthy food access to thousands of Michigan families. I truly can’t say enough good things about their work and I truly believe our effort would not have been as successful without the help of their team of experts. They deployed paid and earned media in new, innovative ways to drive a statewide conversation that created the right atmosphere for success. With their help, Michigan pioneered a unique approach to healthy food financing not seen anywhere in the nation.”

David Hodgkins
Director of Government Relations at the American Heart Association

“This was truly a special campaign and it brought our entire community together to support the John Ball Zoo and Grand Rapids Public Museum. Between the jingle, creativity and relentless approach of Byrum & Fisk, we couldn’t have done it without them.”
