Julie, Stef and their team take the time to understand your needs and then develop and implement a PR strategy that can realistically achieve your goals. You always feel like they are 100% focused on your business and you are not “just another client”. This enthusiasm and professionalism reflects in their outstanding results.

“The results speak for themselves. Progeny’s proactive attitude, ambition and genuine interest in and knowledge of the self storage industry ensures that everything is done well and ahead of time. With a relentlessly busy schedule to contend with, it is a weight off my mind to know that Progeny has our social media, PR and content under control.” View Site
Frederic de Ryckman de Betz, Founder, Attic Self Storage
“We have worked with Julie and her team on several occasions. Progeny brings a fresh approach to PR, and in particular one where the PR consultant’s interests are closely aligned with yours. I am not familiar with any other firm that bases its fee policy entirely on success fees, but such is Julie’s level of confidence, and with good reason. We are happy to recommend Julie and her team, and look forward to working with them again.” View Site
