Testimonials

Our loyal commitment to confidentiality, professional judgment and discretion is unwavering. Therefore, we do not routinely publish client lists or testimonials to shield those who entrust us with their brands and careers during the most sensitive of times. While we discourage it, there are times where the professionals we’ve worked with insist on saying more…


“We were in a position to have to respond to reporters on a deadline regarding a very sensitive issue, an issue that my client did not particularly want publicized.  The Fallston Group came through on short notice with practical and concise advice.  They guided us through potentially difficult waters.  Their moniker, “if you don’t tell your story somebody else will…” convinced us.  Next time, the Fallston Group is the first call.”  Charles B. Jones, Esquire, Thomas & Libowitz Law, P.A.

“Many business advisors ‘talk the talk,’ the team at the Fallston Group `walk the walk.’ Their expertise in issue management, assessment, marketing and business development has proven invaluable to me and the Atlantic Remodeling team. We’ve been able to identify organizational issues and trends much more quickly which allowed us to make more focused decisions during our expansion. If you want to work with people who have proven track records and honestly tell it like it is, look no further than the Fallston Group. I highly recommend their executive services.”  Bert Lebhar, President/CEO, The Atlantic Remodeling Corporation

“I wanted to personally thank the Fallston Group team for helping to execute a flawless program last month.  The “Protect Your Identity” shredding event was an incredible success.  Due in great part to the efforts of the Fallston Group, Incred-A-Shred was featured on multiple spots on WJZ and Fox News the day before and the day of the event.  The amount of PR and branding that we received prior to, during, and after the event was beyond my wildest expectations.  As a growing Baltimore-based business, we do not have the deep pockets like some of our international competitors.  Your team helped us build significant brand equity that we would not have been able to afford through traditional media channels.  Your communication, level of detail, and advice were second to none.  I can say that I view the Fallston Group as a true partner would strongly recommend them to anyone who wants to grow their brand!”  Jeff Rupp, President/CEO, Incred-A-Shred

“When I was asked to assemble a panel of experts to discuss Media Relations for a leadership group from the American Public Transporation Association (APTA), my first call was to Rob Weinhold of the Fallston Group. Rob’s knowledge of the field and his ability to communicate complex subject mattter in a clear and concise way is truly impressive. He is a consumate professional and I look forward to the opportunity to work with him and his team again. The APTA class we addressed called the media relations session the best they ever had, and it was due in large part to Rob’s contributions.”  Terry Owens, Chief Public Information Officer for the Maryland Transit Administration/Former Television News Anchor

“Rob Weinhold led a discussion during our 2011 Executive Dialogue meeting season on Crisis Management & Communications which I facilitate. The information and points he made were underscored by examples which many of us recalled seeing in the news. His very down to earth presentation style allowed our discussion to be interactive and well worth our time.”  Marvin “Buddy” Potler, Offit | Kurman, Attorneys at Law

“I have been tasked with running two companies, one construction company and one restoration company completing insurance build back and mitigation work for water and fire losses.  The latter is a new venture, born out of a declining economy for construction.  Starting the new company (a franchise) up two years ago this November was no small task.  Everyone says that with a franchise, you just plug in the system and it works. It is not the case and any start-up is a lot of work.  In order to create awareness, you have got to have a plan.  I met the Fallston Group through another mutual acquaintance and let them know what my challenges were and what we were looking to do.  They came back with an aggressive plan that would fit out needs (and our budget) that would help us grow the brand for us, through social media, releases and web site growth / traffic.  Perhaps the biggest obstacle to an owner being successful is the owner—trying to find time to plan and implement—all while you are trying to grow your baby.  Rob Weinhold makes that part easy, taking most of what I am comfortable in giving-up and running with it.  Our projections this year are getting revised each quarter, and in the right direction.  I’d have to say the Fallston Group had some major influence there.”  Jay Van Deusen, President of Van Deusen Construction Company and Rainbow International of Northeastern Maryland

“The Fallston Group was very instrumental in helping our organization reset its business development, marketing and outreach priorities while taking into consideration our business infrastructure needs. I highly recommend their services as they were understanding, easy to work with and helped me gain a perspective I didn’t have. We now have a renewed momentum which is very exciting.”  Frank Kolarek, President, League of Dreams, Inc.

“Having known and worked with Rob Weinhold for over 15 years, I can recommend him as a hard working person with great wisdom, attention to detail and trustworthy. Rob’s skill in handling communications and PR, especially in crises, is highly commendable. But those who choose to listen to his advice and take advantage of his proactive expertise will likely find themselves in very few crisis situations in the first place.”  Clinton Coleman, former Mayoral Press Secretary for City of Baltimore, Current PR Executive

“Rob is an extremely talented individual who will be a valuable resource to any organization he is involved with. He is very detailed, organized and knows how to focus his attention on the pertinent facts whenever an issue arises. I would recommend him enthusiastically without reservation.”  Douglas A. Strouse, Ph.D., President of the CEO Club of Baltimore

“Rob was Public Affairs Director for a law enforcement agency with 3800 employees. He was responsible for handling the most sensitive issues of urban policing and government with accuracy, sensitivity, and integrity. His contribution to straightforward information dissemination, respect for all concerned, and creation of a positive public image were extraordinary. He has my highest recommendation.”  Thomas C. Frazier, former Baltimore Police Commissioner, Current Business Executive

“Rob is an expert in communications and public affairs. He is a talented executive manager and a true professional with impeccable leadership qualities. It was my pleasure working with him in the public sector.” Bryan Alston, Public Affairs Executive
