Client Testimonials
CMAC's clients love working with us for many reasons, but mostly because we get results that move the needle and we help them achieve specific business and marketing objectives...in very little time. Hear what some current and recent CMAC clients, colleagues, and peers have to say about the agency, its expertise and capabilities, and its founder and president, Keith R. Pillow:
“I met Keith at a networking meeting, and he immediately stood out head and shoulders above many other ‘professionals.’ My first impression did not prove me wrong. Keith has a superior knowledge of marketing and a well of information that can help you in your business. If you are looking for someone that is responsible, professional, knowledgeable, and honest, you are foolish if you pass up the opportunity to work with Keith. He rates A+ in my books.”

Founder and President

“The true value of a marketing and communications practitioner is someone who is constantly evolving and keeping up with the fast pace in which technology is transforming business. I have known Keith for nearly 20 years, and he has always remained on the cutting edge with a thirst to learn more and outwork others. He is effective, dogged, and knowledgeable. Keith has both experience and expertise, and I’m confident CMAC will offer your business sound and solid stewardship.”

“Keith’s enthusiasm for storytelling, the art of public relations, and the craft of good writing is what makes him truly a stand-out among many in a sea of professional communicators. He has the unique ability to understand the inner workings of public relations and business, and how the two worlds mesh together. In addition, the rare combination of a MBA degree and APR designation give him the business acumen to understand the high-level issues that his clients need to resolve, and to quickly become an indispensable strategic partner that senior executive teams rely on to provide sound counsel and direction.
“Above all, Keith constantly delivers. I have worked with Keith in support of many clients of various sizes, and there are many common denominators. However, the ones that stand out are those always requesting him to lead their teams and their projects. This is because of his unyielding dedication to service, his ability to write, and his attention to detail. In addition, clients can always count on Keith to think of different ways to execute projects, deliver results, or provide innovative ideas.”

Founder and President
Farrell Talbot Consulting, Inc.
“Keith and I first worked together nearly 20 years ago on an event in Las Vegas. His professionalism, even then, struck me. We stayed in touch as our careers progressed, and when my new company, Skadaddle Media, needed to build its industry profile, I didn’t hesitate to call CMAC. While Keith’s ability to create the story, coupled with his unparalleled contacts, provides the recipe for success, his approach and knowledge of best practices in marketing and communications is the icing on the cake.”
Todd B. Lieman
Founder and President
Skadaddle Media, Inc.
“I had the pleasure of working with Keith for approximately two years during my tenure at Dynamax Technologies, and I can honestly say he is one of the most focused and results-orientated PR professionals I have come across. His knowledge and understanding of ‘joined-up’ PR and marketing programs delivers a refreshing degree of performance-related results and metrics to all of his clients. Keith’s strong negotiation skills enable him to develop long-term working relationships with clients, journalists, and industry analysts. His writing style reflects an intellectual understanding of his chosen subject together with empathy for the reader, this is a rare, and very successful communication skill, which he delivers with flair into the new digital and online marketing arena.”

“Keith and I worked closely together for two years while I was launching eBureau, a leading developer of powerful predictive analytics and real-time information solutions, into the marketplace. Not only is Keith a consummate PR professional with outstanding communication skills and a strategic mindset, but also he dove in headfirst to really understand our complex and multi-faceted business. Armed with this knowledge and insight, he developed and executed several creative communications programs that gained us repeated media coverage and industry exposure across many different print and online publications.”
