Success Stories

Rod is a creative, ideas-oriented advertising person who sincerely wants to help his clients succeed.

Ralph PlankPlank Productions, Inc.

We have worked with numerous vendors and experienced various levels of radio spot production. Rod Schwartz, hands down, produced the highest converting advertising radio spots for our company. The attention to detail and content is unmatched by anyone we have worked with in the past.

When I first moved to this community I was surprised at the quality and creativity that I was hearing on some local commercials. Frankly, I thought they were produced in a large market and then sent here. I’ll admit it. I was biased towards large media markets after doing talent work in Sacramento and San Francisco. Then I met Rod Schwartz. He’s a creative genius and a consummate professional. He could work in any market but he prefers the non-urban environment and I don’t blame him, especially since I’m the mayor of Pullman. Over the years, Rod and I have had a chance to do a number of commercials and public service spots and it’s been a great experience and it’s been fun. He takes time to understand his client and his work reflects that. Give him a listen. It’s well worth your time!

Within 3-4 months of the campaign kicking off, I began to see clients reaching out specifically for me, realtors upset with me because I was “stealing their clients” and most importantly increased listings and sales. In addition, I was typically introduced at Chamber events, Rotary meetings and WSU events as “Pullman’s Real Estate Expert” not by my choice but because the person doing the introduction decided to include that description on their own. The campaign was launched in about 2010 and in 2013 I was number 3 in the market and voted as Whitman County Association of Realtors “Realtor of the Year.” Today’s real estate market quite challenging and competitive; it is extremely difficult for a Realtor entering a new community. Rod’s expertise in marketing helped me build a brand for my business. From the creative radio campaign to his assistance with carrying the brand through all other mediums, he has helped me build a successful business. I highly recommend Rod to anyone that is looking to build their business.

Rod Schwartz is an exceptional ad writer. His work for my specialty practice (peripheral neuropathy) was spot-on. Highly recommended!

Rick MurphyMad Dog Wireless, Inc.Lake Havasu City, AZ

I’ve known and worked with Rod in various ways for many years, and never will you find a more talented, resourceful, principled fellow. Rod always puts his clients and customers first, walking the walk while others merely talk it. I cannot recommend Rod more strongly. He’s a great human being and a genuine pleasure to work with.

Rod’s talents and experience shine through when working with him on any project, small or large. His ideas are forward thinking, innovative, and very creative. I’ve enjoyed my working and personal relationship with Rod and look forward to many more projects with him.

Many may know Rod as a silky radio intonation which can lull you into buying almost anything. As he’s helped me with radio productions his skill in sound engineering is presented, unspoken. Have you ever seen an artist take something as rough and awkward has a log and as unruly as a chain saw and watched him fashion something as imperial as a Kodiak, as mystic as a wizard, or as beautiful as an eagle. That’s Rod Schwartz on a sound board. But. That’s the least of it. He has the seemingly uncanny knowledge of knowing when and where to apply and imply emphasis to the public ear. Radio knowledge is the least of it. He’s helped me understand when to use internal marketing – not to mention even more subtle ways of offering oneself, one’s ideas, one’s wares.
