“Thanks to Marcus, the communications materials for my Frankel for Judge campaign were highly professional, appealing and easy to read. His willingness to support my campaign and turn projects around quickly was very much appreciated. In a sea of busy, political ads, mailings and flyers, our materials really stood out.”
