COMMENTS FROM CLIENTS IN THEIR OWN WORDS

Chris Batty, VP Sales Gawker Media

“I spoke to other search firms in the space and was frustrated by their lack of knowledge regarding the industry and their incomprehension of Gawker’s business and culture. This was not the case with Mercury Group. Working with them was both refreshing and extremely productive. They have a unique approach and intimate understanding of both our organization and the candidates, which results in a positive outcome. We found the right people, at the right levels, quickly and efficiently.”

“We had very specific needs when launching NYSun.com but didn’t have time or resources to allocate to find the right talent. Mercury Group was an indispensable resource in building our Web team.”

Meredith Levin – Group Publisher, Forbes Life/Forbes Life Executive Women

“We used the Mercury Group to fill a particularly important senior sales position at Forbes, and were pleased with both the quality of candidates presented and the speed with which we were able to find the right person. We would certainly call on Jeff and JD again and I would absolutely recommend them to peers in the industry.”

Justin B. Smith, President, Atlantic Consumer Media, Atlantic Media Company

“In relocating The Atlantic’s commercial operations to NYC, we had to rebuild an integrated sales and marketing team from scratch. The Mercury Group consulted on everything from the organization chart to divisions of responsibilities to the identification and recruitment of top-tier talent. Due to their invaluable expertise and counsel, we assembled one of the best teams in publishing.”
