"Marshall is a new media expert. If you can get time with him, don't pass up the chance."

-Michael Arrington, Founding Editor of TechCrunch, one of the top three most linked-to blogs on the internet

"Marshall is one of the gods of attention. If you want to know how to build the hotness he is a great guy to ask."

- James Governor, enterprise industry analyst at Redmonk

I was Marshall's contact at Sun and he was AWESOME to work with. He really knows his stuff. He dogged every detail and got answers, even when I was thinking we'd hit a dead end. He was nothing but upbeat and pleasant despite some trying circumstances. I really like his determination and willingness to try new things. Great job, Marshall!

-Joanne Kisling, Sun Microsystems. See the case study about the work I did with Joanne, the first of four projects I've done with Sun.

One of the people I learn from regularly is Marshall Kirkpatrick. He is thoughtful, thorough, and very easy going.

-Chris Brogan, a leading social media consultant to large corporations

Marshall provided us with a very effective and manageable system to bring a wide range of relevant news content onto our site. He did a great job managing the project - it required minimal technical resources and was very cost-effective. Our percentage of returning visitors and our depth of visit metrics have both improved since the implementation.

- Gerry Murray, Director Corporate Communications, Softrax (read case study)

I had planned to spend an hour or so with Marshall to get his feedback on the nuances of working in new media for some plans I had created. Four hours of really focused conversation later I walked away with a few bona fide breakthroughs in my thinking. He seems to truly enjoy the role of guide through the Internet maze and works out of a strong spirit of generosity.

-Kathleen Mazzocco, Principal at Clear PR, former account manager at Waggener Edstrom and Director of Media Relations at Conservation International

Marshall’s holistic approach to RSS has helped make the torrent of news and information I’m confronted with everyday simple to manage. His strategic approach to feed management and a suite of web 2.0 tools have clearly improved my workflow capacity and ability to stay abreast of the fast-moving changes happening on the web.

-Billy Bicket, Director of Strategic Development, Knowledge Services, CompuMentor

You have been great. I don't have the time to go out and learn about what's new out there and how to use it, so your compact help and information have been very useful. I'm so glad you're out there, thanks for the education.

-Norris McDonald, Director
African American Environmentalist Association
