John Cobb, PharmD. – Cobb’s Westside Pharmacy, Inc.

Judy has been handling our advertising for well over a year now and I couldn’t be more pleased with her services. While I knew the importance of advertising I simply couldn’t devote the amount of time required to advertise effectively. I had haphazardly advertised on radio and occasionally in print, but never on television as I thought I could never afford it, especially with production costs. Boy was I ever wrong! Thankfully Judy convinced me I could afford a television and radio advertising campaign that would be professionally produced and very effective. Now all I have to do is tell Judy each month what products or services we are featuring and she does the rest. Since we have been using Levanthal Productions our business has grown nearly 15% in large part due to a coordinated, professional and constant advertising presence in our market. I know our advertising is working because almost every day at least one person tells me they saw me on television or heard me on the radio or even better they ask about a product or service we advertised. I would highly recommend Levanthal Productions to anybody that wants a professional cost effective marketing company that will get results!

I have been working with Judy Leventhal for the last four years. In that time, Judy has helped me with my radio and television advertising. I can’t stress enough how important it is, in today’s business climate, to have a professional such as Judy helping me navigate through the confusing world of marketing and advertising. Judy was the first person to make me aware of the opportunity to advertise on television at a reasonable rate. After one month of television ads, I experienced and increase in business. The commercials created more feedback than any advertising or promotion that I have ever done. I have been in business for almost 30 years and was amazed at the comments we received at the store about our commercial. I would not hesitate to work with Judy on any marketing or advertising that you plan for your business in the future. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have about hiring Judy to work with you. You will not be disappointed with your results.
