Crowd PR Refused Performance Guarantees San Francisco CA

We had a healthy campaign with over $200,000 raised. Our facebook ads were performing quite well, so we decided to take a call with Crowd PR in hopes to kick up our total raise a bit. Boy were we wrong. I made a simple request: guarantee me you can get us featured by The New York Times. I wasn't asking for much, considering our prodigious raise and funding amount. Their response? We dont' guarantee particular publications, we don't have control over journalists.

That right there is a dead give away of illegitimacy. If you can't guarantee any of the biggest media outlets, then what's the point? Their service is not even worth a grain of salt as far as I am concerned. My project can easily get coverage in NYT, CNN, or Washington Post. Those liberal media outlets post so much fake news, that what's the big deal in any of them covering a crowdfunidng project? They cover startups in Silicon Valley all the time. Crowd PR could not guarantee any of this, therefore they are a fradulent firm.

To top it all off, their facebook page doesn't allow reviews either. Likely to keep anyone from posting their crowd.pr review. I know from past experience that if a marketing agency can't offer a guarantee, a notorized written assurance of weath, then they are not a real agency. It is the absolute best way to see who is a performer and who is a low energy provider of services.

When asked why they are not capable of guaranteeing the biggest media outlets, their response was very snide and crude - they told me that they do not have mind control over journalists, and that editors have "free will". Very cute response, but I know full well there are ways to force people to do what you want no matter what. I'll steer clear of Crowd PR, thanks.
