Christian Frost (CEO – FELL Marine) – “For us, being a Norwegian company, it can be hard to select the right partner in a foreign market. I highly recommend Bill Schwarz as a trusted partner for PR and Marketing services. He delivers a solid service with great control and communication throughout their process, and the team is determined to achieve the goals we have agreed to reach.”

Andrew Westcott (Sales Representative at Consumer Profiles Inc.) – Bill has a vast knowledge of the outdoors industry and online marketing, is extremely motivated, and is a pleasure to work with. I learned a ton about the digital marketplace and the recreational sporting/outdoors industry during my time working with ODU. If you’re looking to promote and grow your brand, Bill is definitely the guy to talk to. And by the way, he’s a pretty darn good fisherman too!

Capt. Ron Presley (Writer/Editor)- “Bill Schwarz is a dedicated and thorough owner/editor at ODU. I have worked with him on many occasions and each encounter was met with enthusiasm and thoroughness. I plan to have similar experiences with him in the future. I recommend him highly.”

Teeg Stouffer (Founder of Recycled Fish) – “Bill has taken social media by storm as far as fishing goes. His leadership at Twitter in particular has helped grow ODU Magazine and its partners in ways that are not seen in the fishing scene. He’s leveraged the right strategies and developed processes that work. I’m happy to recommend him to anyone that might need a hand expanding brand presence at social media, especially companies in the outdoor sphere.”

Karen Greene (O’Neill William Show – O’Neill Outside)- “I’ve had the privilege of working with William Schwarz for approximately 8 months now and in that time I have known William to be a well-grounded and down-to-earth business associate and colleague. He is a true expert in the field of social media, promotion, and advertising, and with his assistance has helped one of my customers gain considerable ground in new sponsors and followers. My customer is a company that produces hunting and fishing programming for radio and television. With William’s knowledge and assistance, my customers have gained considerable exposure on Twitter, Facebook, and we have gained extensive knowledge on the best ways to promote the company via email newsletter mailings. I would highly recommend William for any promotional needs regarding new media business solutions.”
