Setting the record straight.....

She gave the same tireless attention to The Moody's, the Beach Boys, and countless others. She has been a respected and contributing member of the music industry and there are countless record executives, managers, and concert promoters that would tell you the same thing. I continue to work with Maria on a number of different projects and she is invaluable in her knowledge of marketing and the music business as a whole. The negative comments expressed towards her upset me to the point of having to write this rebuttal as I found it to be so ridiculously off base and totally unfounded..... I hope this helps to set the record straight....

Though I can guess that Maria Brunner may have been suspicious and condescending to the report poster over the phone, Insight Management is, in fact, a legitimate organization working with countless legitimate music and entertainment clients. When I was employed by this company some years ago, I suggested building a website and using non-AOL email addresses to lend more credibility to the company, but they felt it was not necessary as their contacts are all behind-the-scenes in entertainment and their relationships in that world are very strong.
Insight's stellar history in the industry and Maria's vast network of contacts keep the business booming. She told me the company has no need for a website that only draws in a bunch of distracting new inquiries when they are continually getting new clients based on referrals from satisfied artists/managers/promoters/etc. Since Maria literally works nonstop (she dictates emails, tasks and to-do lists to her employees into a tape recorder even while exercising, driving and eating), it may very well be the truth that the business doesn't have time for new accounts. I don't see how Maria could be a con artist when it appeared to me that all her waking hours were spent marketing the living daylights out of every client she had. I would be very shocked if a workaholic with her level of integrity was involved in any shady dealings.
Having worked in their office, I can tell you that it is a highly structured, endlessly busy environment with tons of clients and very full days. Maria Brunner is a well-educated, compulsively efficient marketing professional with a huge client list who'd vouch for her on any day of the week. After a couple years of insane days working in the same room with Maria from morning until night, hearing all of her phone conversations, making business calls, designing marketing campaigns, typing her emails, assisting in servicing clients and participating in after-hours pro bono work for animal charities, I can say that I seriously doubt there was any type of "scamming" going on. I worked on nearly every account she had, and while I didn't know how much each client was paying for our services, I do know that I was part of thorough, legitimate marketing campaigns for numerous artists (Moody Blues included) and several pro bono charity efforts.
I realize this report is several years old, but Maria Brunner and Insight Management are very much still in business and do not deserve for this kind of malicious libel to mar their reputation.
