      Lisa Knab's Review Sourced from Google

      From our very first meeting with Tony, Tim and Ashlee we knew The Felice Agency was THE marketing company that we were looking for to launch our new business! The level of trust that we felt in handing over the task of creating our logo and developing our branding strategy was almost immediate. And to say that they hit that task out of the ballpark is an understatement! They have exceeded our expectations in all regards. There is no doubt as we look towards the future, and launching our business, that The Felice Agency will be an integral part of that process. I can’t imagine partnering up with a better company…and it comes down to the people. I truly believe Tony and Tim care about the success of our business as if it were their own. You won’t find more creative, intelligent, genuine, kind, and hard-working people than you will at The Felice Agency!

      The Felice Agency provides stellar service, creativity and acute knowledge of the marketing industry. I've had the pleasure of partnering with Tony Felice in multi-year campaigns, and as a partner agency, we're continually impressed by his team's creativity and dexterity in implementing effective strategies that get real results. The best part? Tony and his team are a joy. Fun, genuine and wholly invested in a client's ongoing success. Highly recommend!

      You simply can't put a price on marketing if you're in business, it is the MOST essential service your business MUST have!!I've used The Felice Agency to open 3 companies over the past 6 years and have recommended them more times than I can count!!Tony and his team are truly top notch and more importantly they get it! They know what you need and how to execute!! Tony is a genius when it comes to branding and separating you from your competition so you shine just a little more than the rest.If I could have given them 6 stars or 7 or 8...I would have!

      Relevance is amazing! Once our non-compete ended with our previous company, we jumped right over to Relevance and the difference was noticeable day 1! Our account reps, Kari, Janine, and Chanelle, are caring, thorough, creative, and fun. They are also very well connected and tend to get us terrific media exposure. They always go beyond the call of duty to ensure that our needs are met and that we are happy.I would highly recommend Relevance to anyone in need of professional PR.
