  <title>4: Why I Guarantee Bookings (&amp;amp; Why That's Controversial)</title>
  <description>I have worked in the PR and publicity world for over 15 years and I know how clients want concrete answers to things we don’t always have control over - ROI and conversion, for example. This is the reason why most agencies don’t give guarantees to their clients.&amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; But when I started my own business I was determined to give my clients some sort of solid guarantee - even if it went against the typical PR “rules.” Why? Because as a small business owner myself, I know it’s hard to invest so much money in publicity without even knowing what results you’re going to see on the other end. &amp;amp;nbsp; But here’s the thing - publicity can be guaranteed and I can attest to this with the work we have done (and are currently doing). &amp;amp;nbsp; So if you’d want to learn what guarantees I offer to clients, the important things you need to think about when looking for a publicity agency and how you can find the best agency to cater to your business’ needs, listen in on this episode today.
