Media Spike #11 – What’s Your Favourite Number
by Dennis Kelly Welcome Back. Hope you’re having a great day today. Are you one in a million? Perhaps one in 100,000? Maybe sneaking in there at one in 3,000? The hardest part of making yourself memorable is finding a way to STAND OUT. In a sea of daily messages, it has been estimated we […]
Media Spike – You Deserve A Reward…with My Appreciation
by Dennis Kelly Thank you Collision Repair readers. Sometimes things go off the rails. Despite all your efforts, diligence, vigilance and savvy, the unexpected happens. You’ve had days like that?

Media Spike #4 – When Cooler Heads Prevail
by Dennis Kelly Glad you stopped by. Recently one client asked me to comment on the potential choice of radio stations in two different markets. That’s fine. It’s part of what I do and I was glad to respond. It poses a bit of a quagmire potential because so many factors influence the choice of […]
