KIND WORDS FROM OUR CLIENTS:
“One of the challenges of having a rare disease is that it is difficult for others to understand your experience. So I wrote a book. But nobody pays attention unless it's in the press. Paula formulated a plan to contact media that matters, leveraged her contacts, scheduled interviews, managed all the logistics, provided guidance on how to present myself, and treated me like a celebrity. The resulting media coverage made my book stand out and produced increased sales, and increased awareness of Friedreich's ataxia.” _Kyle Bryant, author of Shifting Into High Gear (HCI)
"Paula Amato is an excellent publicist. She took great care and thought into setting the stage for my book release (Facing East) and building up my personal brand. I was very impressed with her attention and expertise. She is creative, enthusiastic and connected. I highly recommend her.” _JD Yang, MD , author of Facing East (Harper Collins)
Paula Amato, outstanding NYC publicist for Martin Terefe!” _Michael Dixon, manager Marin Terefe (producer, Jason Mraz, Train. KT Tunstall)
“I have worked with Paula Amato for the last ten years on several projects including CDs, tours and books. She has proved to be the most able and efficient publicist I have ever worked with. Her very pleasant but also determined attitude makes the often-arduous path of promotion easy. She is great company and someone I have also found very easy to be friends with outside of business activities – a significant quality not always found in the entertainment profession. I recommend her without hesitation.” _ Andy Summers, The Police
“Paula Amato is as much of a class act as anyone I’ve worked with in my years as a reporter and critic. She’s smart, warm and utterly genuine, thorough and passionate about her clients without ever being overzealous. I consider her a valued colleague and friend.” __Elysa Gardner, journalist at Town + Country, NY Times,
“Paula Amato has worked with my band, Blue Rodeo, for many years. First at Atlantic Records, and then as an independent. Paula's work is superlative. She is creative, diligent, honest, and never lets a detail slide. We have been forever amazed at the opportunities, TV shows, magazine articles, newspaper features that Paula has been able to secure for us. Paula is always my first recommendation to any band or artist looking for publicity or marketing help in the US.” _Jim Cuddy, Blue Rodeo
"I highly recommend Paula Amato and PAI Media to anyone looking to hire a publicist to launch a new product and/or enhance their media presence. She is a great strategic thinker and has helped me navigate the media with a thoughtful and proactive long-term vision. She has been a terrific asset in developing a strong foundation for the Holistic Baby Acupressure System as a brand, while positioning it for our next phase book release this summer.” _Jennifer Taveras, L.Ac., Holistc Baby Acupressure System
“Paula is extremely conscientious, diligent and very sensitive to my artists’ needs. She is always ready to accommodate and possesses vision and feeling for the industry we work within.
