"I have used Howard Rosen Promotions on several campaigns and different formats over the years with great success. We have acheived results way beyond expectation because of the extra efforts and attention to detail as well as deep knowledge of the industry. In addition, their reporting is honest, flawless, and on-time allowing me to quickly react to results. Their long-term relationships with stations and hard-working dedicated team means my artists actually get listened to and get the airplay they deserve. I always turn to Howard Rosen Promotions when I want results."

"Dear Howie,
Thank you very much for believing in us, trying your best to help us, and for introducing us to David. He is a great writer and producer, and because of working with him, our music has moved forward and continues to do so.
We appreciate all the airplay you got for us. I've always felt that radio is the best way to increase your success. Thank you again. Hopefully we will be able to work together again sometime.
Wishing you all the best,
Sincerely,
Annie and Stuart"

"Dear Howie,
Just wanted to let you know I am extremely satisfied with your promotion services. I felt that both Andy and Ryan really went above and beyond the call of duty by making extra efforts to reach the stations that I felt were the most important and also by even extending the campaign an extra week to make up for time lost as a result of a slightly premature start and holiday schedules. I would highly recommend your services to anyone seeking more exposure in a very competitive market. As a result of the campaign some very promising new developments may be on the horizon for me. I hope we can work together again in the future."
- Sincerely, Steven "Woody" Woodham
"Howard Rosen Promotions is it! His team is wonderful to work with and never ceases to amaze us. They say what they are going to do and always make it happen! The amount of spins they have gotten Burgandy as a new artist is great, and we look forward to working with Howard and his team for many years to come! I will always refer Howard Rosen Promotions as the top radio/record promoter to all bands, he knows his stuff, he knows the business, and more importantly he knows what is right for his clients!"

"Dear Howie,
Thanks for all your help this year. We're now on the ballot for possible Grammy nomination in SEVEN categories. You and your team were a critical part of the strategy Felix Jones employed to heighten exposure and help us generate a buzz in '07. It seems the more promotion we do, the more serious people in this business take us. Couldn't have gotten the exposure we did without you buddy. Hope to see you at the Grammy Awards ceremony in '08... :) Take care now."

"Hey Howie, it's Suzanne Gorman here. I have been wanting to meet you and I just wanted to thank you for all the work you have done for me. I know it is not easy getting the music out there but you have done a great job for me. I hope to be finally getting my band together once again and getting out and about. I find that me as an artist as well as a fan of many of the greats really loved seeing the artist live on stage. Brings it close to home. And makes us REAL. Nothing like it. I just got asked find out that we missed the window by 10 minutes to reply. No more of that. But with people like him and others to open for we shall be lightening up in the physical rather then the virtual.
Again thank you so much for putting me on the engine where we do or die but you know, we won't know until we get there. Take care, and love the 'howiewood'."
Clever. With lots of hope for success ahead.
- Best to you, Suzanne Gorman
"Howard Rosen is a consummate professional who understands his business better than anyone else out there. As an independent artist, entertainment attorney and record label owner, I have an insider's understanding of just how difficult it is to break an independent artist onto the airwaves of mainstream radio. Despite my cynicism, Howard and his team, through hard work, dedication and know-how, broke through with my single 'Willie Mays' getting it added onto playlists in dozens of markets and into heavy rotation. Basically, he helped put myself and my label, 67 Records, on the map."
- Thanks, Howard." - Adam Stengel
"You guys have been the ultimate business, of business of business. I've enjoyed our relationship immensely. I have grown, and gotten closer to my goals through working with Howard Rosen Promotions."
- Thank you." - Freddee T.
"Working with Howie has been a positive experience all around. We have had great success with Howie . . . our first single charted on R&R without the muscle of a major label behind it. Howie is constantly on the phone with the program directors and gives us lots of feedback in writing on weekly basis . . . we receive charts from him that show us our adds; tests; how we are trending, and comments from the program directors, etc. He also personally calls us at least two or three times a week to tell us how we are doing for the week, and what the game plan should be on a go forward basis. He is also sensitive to money spending issues. While some radio promo companies will simply ask for a huge chunk of money up front, Howie will ask for a smaller amount, and based on the success of the single if he feels more is needed at some point in the campaign, he calls you and explains why, and then you can decide to spend more or less. In addition to being professional and hardworking, he is also an honest and nice guy . . . a real MENSCH!"

"Howard Rosen has the only team I know that, with sincere dedication and hard work, can successfully take an independent artist on an independent label, to the place that only majors can afford to go."
- AJ Croce
"The Jeannie Kendall record was stalling until Howard Rosen's team got a hold of it and put it in the top 40 where it belongs and where IT STILL IS!!!.
Thanks guys."

"As I shared with you by phone recently, on behalf of Midnight To Twelve, let me officially express thanks and appreciation to you and your staff for the tireless effort on behalf of the band's single SLAM. The success of radio significantly helped Midnight To Twelve launch their Summer Slam tour which will see them in more than 60 markets across the country. This could not have happened without Howard Rosen Promotion. Your team of professionals took on the Midnight To Twelve assignment with enthusiasm and energy and it showed in the successful landing of numerous 'test spins' and continued 'adds' on large and small radio markets. We whole-heartedly recommend Howard Rosen Promotion to other acts. You not only did what you said, you exceeded our expectations. As a part of a full PR plan, we found the radio promotion investment for Midnight To Twelve entirely cost-effective. We look forward to releasing other singles through Howard Rosen Promotion in the future. When Midnight To Twelve returns from tour we'll talk about a second release."
- Randy Brewer, Manager, Midnight To Twelve
"Thank you and the Howard Rosen staff for doing such a great job. It's obvious that you guys care just as much about the success of our song as we do. Thanks for spending months with my band to find the right song, the right air date, and the right market to achieve the most attention from radio stations and the greatest possible exposure to the airwaves."
- Colin Crosskill, Peluka
"Just wanted to thank you for all your teams effort on behalf of Jim Deverick and Arthur Kill. I really believe after we add the track they are doing, we have a CD that can break. And you're the team of people to do it."
- Jeff Shane, Pyramid Records
"When I think of record promotion I think of Howard Rosen. Not only is he of the highest quality, such a fact is reflected by every member of his staff. Success and excellence are not always coincidental, with Howard Rosen Promotion they are."
- Michael McGlone
"Our record company and band Cutting Edge, have been working with Howard Rosen Promotion for over three years and have found the relationship not only productive, but very rewarding. Our first single Without You reached number 20 on the FMQB charts and number 26 on the R&R charts. The single Love Police reached number 16. Name me another band (major or independent) that has had the same single hit the top 20 on any chart on two different occasion and 1 1/2 years apart. Howard Rosen is the individual that handled all of this for our company and band"
- David Pesnell, Thunder Quest Records.
"Howard Rosen Promotion is absolutely the best independent radio promotion company out there. Their level of expertise, track record, hard work and professional dedication make them a cut above the rest. As an independent artist, I would not have achieved national charting success without them. I truly enjoy working with them, and I would urge every artist out there interested in getting airplay, to contact them first."
