	“I was able to work with Brian on many projects while I was the Events Manager at Trans World Entertainment. Whether we were setting up artist appearances or promoting one of his two magazines that we carried in our stores, Brian always went the extra mile to make sure his projects were promoted to their full extent and were beneficial to both Trans World and his other partners. Brian was able to use his various projects to support each other and provide excellent exposure for all of his clients. A good example of this was his magazine that was distributed for free in our stores. This allowed Brian to promote his clients to our customers whether they were music related clients, automotive suppliers, jewelry retailers, or even our own stores and websites. His ability to bring together different companies and get them in front of the right customers is excellent. I have never worked with a person who is more determined to make his projects work and ensure that his sponsors or partners get their money's worth. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a highly motivated promotional partner who thinks outside the box.” September 27, 2010
