“What initially seizes you is Susan's passion. Her experience and devotion to her work is immediately apparent during the first few minutes of meeting her. There is an instant sense of comfort and an overwhelming feeling that this person is going to do everything and anything possible to get the press you desire. And she does. She has an energy and devotion rarely seen these days and I always feel like Susan and her team at Siren are doing the work of 30. Siren’s enthusiasm is complemented by a degree of organization that borders on militant. I am at ease knowing that an opportunity or angle never slips by without Siren knowing about it and making it work for us. Siren is a one-of-a-kind find and we look forward to a long and successful relationship with them.”
