Brian D. Johnson
Recomendations from Peers, Clients, Pundits.

Amie Devero “Brian has a deep understanding of the potential for PR, linking his organization to ethical behavior and leadership as a way of doing business. Where most PR peoaple stop at gaining the desired lines of copy or airtime, Brian delves into the actual behavior of the company, bringing its image inward too. That builds not only an organization's image, but its real value and strength as well.”

Jimmy Guterman “Brian is an outstanding communications professional -- well-informed, unbeatable interpersonal skills -- and he sees the big picture better than most "Internet experts." He's be working and thinking on the Net and technology for decades, but his ideas are still fresh and energetic.” 

Glenn Ricart “Brian is the best PR professional I've *ever* had the chance to work with. He stays on top of everything, is ever reachable, and has contacts in the media about which the rest of us only dream.”

Ike Duncan “Brian is absolutely brilliant, a team player and very motivated. I highly recommend him.”

Ken Roberts “Brian Johnson is the hardest working man in the PR business. He keeps the big picture, long term vision on track, while hammering every second on the day-to-day activity that makes it all come together. In his interactions, Brian is responsive, a great communicator and the consummate professional.”

Jim Jones “Brian is a consummate professional. He will get you the most out of the message you are trying to deliver, and let you know when the message is wrong. Brian was a competitive weapon as we grew our business line from $400M to over $1B in just 3 years.”

Terry Hall "Brian gave CenterBeam top notch exposure. Incredible that single handedly he generated more media coverage than most multi-staffed departments or agencies."

Trish Nicholas “Brian made a tremendous and positive impact on Alexander Communications during his tenure there. He challenged people across the agency to do their best, to build and nurture relationships, to think strategically and creatively, and to learn as much as they could about their clients' business. Clients and staff at all levels benefited from his experience, energy, brilliance and humor.”

Leland J. Katz “I have known Brian closely for over 20 years and he is a consummate PR & communications professional with a keen understanding of both high tech and non-high tech marketing.
