As a recent client of Sharkey Advertising, I’d like to commend Fran Sharkey and her staff on the excellent level of attention and commitment brought to our new branded marketing materials campaign. We are thoroughly pleased with the collaborative efforts between the Sharkey organization and ours. We are very happy with the creative ideas that were presented at the finalist meeting. There is continuity in theme/feel throughout the materials developed including corporate capabilities spiral presentation booklet, folder with insert, new logo, promotional giveaways and new website. We solicited bids from several other advertising agencies and Sharkey’s proposal was very comprehensive and was the best price for what was to be delivered. Sharkey Advertising has been very flexible in working with our team to get all the projects completed in a timely manner.
