“I hired Ernie to
clean up and rewrite the copy on my website. I had some
conversations with one of the Web's "top" copywriters before
meeting Ernie. The guy quoted me a flat rate per page without any
understanding of my business goals or market. Ernie took the time
to understand my business strengths, weaknesses and goals. We
started with an hour long interview keyed off of pages of
questions he sent to me.
"The results were
outstanding. He not only did a great job on the copy, he became a
trusted marketing advisor. I'm planning on doing a follow-up
direct mail marketing plan as a result of his performance and
commitment.”

“Ernest Nicastro has a
thorough command of the English language and knows how to use it
effectively. We now have a sales and marketing tool that is
second to none. I know from the presentations I’ve made that
Ernest's words and ideas, and the facts, figures, client stories
and related information he pulled together and articulated for
us…are having a positive impact on clients and prospects.
“So if you’re in the market for the services of an excellent
writer and marketer…who will dig and probe for the vital
information needed to convincingly communicate why people should
do business with you – instead of someone else – give
Ernest a call. You'll be glad you did.”
James Reed, Director of Sales, Inter-Action Consultants, North
America
“Working with Ernest
will not only yield excellent professional results, but will also
be satisfying from a personal point of view: always ready to go
the extra step to 'get it right,' Ernest is also a great source
of tips and thoughts about what is working in marketing and
communication and how the business is evolving. We are very
pleased with the corporate brochure Ernest created for IAC Corp,
and he has so much more to offer that I am sure I will be working
with him again.” -
Gabriele Rosazza Prin, VP
Operations/Deputy CEO at Inter Action Consultants Corp.
"I've used Ernie for
several important copywriting projects and I highly recommend his

"After spending an afternoon trying to put our own story on
paper, we knew we couldn't do it. However, we also knew what we
wanted, and that was someone who could SELL on paper. Ernie,
mission accomplished! The letters you have created are dead
on....You put the time in to understand our business in order to
present us in the best and most effective way, and once you got
into the flow of things, the letters started flowing. It was nice
not to have to check up on a service provider! We thank you again
for your efforts and your expertise, and we would not hesitate to
recommend you or use you again." -
Rick Zwelling, President, Audit My

"As
a private equity management and investment banking firm, some of
our clients don't have a lot of time or money to spend on
marketing so it's critical that we cut through all the marketing
fluff and get right to what really works - and that's what
Positive Response gives you. Since we've started using the
strategies outlined by Ernest, our client's marketing is
FINALLY paying off. One client took one of the letter templates
Ernest provided, mailed it to 200 people, and picked up 5 new
clients instantly. Another strategy is working like magic
to generate new referrals."
- Steve Garrett, Managing Partner, AccessEdge Value Network, LLC
"We were looking for a writer who
understood sales and marketing. We decided to go with Ernest
Nicastro and Positive Response. Not only he could put selling
power into the materials, he also put in extra efforts to get the
project out to meet our tight deadline and to work with our
graphic design house. As a result, we were able to launch our
marketing campaign successfully." -
Hayden C. Hong, President/CEO,
Long Circle,
Inc.
"Thank you for your help with the new letter program for our conservation program. Not only were
you easy to work with you were prompt and very responsive. The

record-breaking year." - Dave W. McKim, Vice President, Timberland Custom Homes
"It was a real pleasure doing business with you for the
development of our introductory sales letters. You really took
the time to understand each of our vertical markets and developed
excellent communication pieces. We already have seen response
from our brokerage letter that you created for us. I hope we can
do business again in the future."
