Susan LaRosa, President, Marketing Direct

As a control-busting copywriter and "secret strategist":
"Thomas Selleck is my secret strategist who gives me far more than control-busting direct mail packages. I look to him as a sounding board for strategic ideas and for new creative concepts.  He has beaten several longstanding controls for me, including one that had held its own for 6 years.  Thomas and his team provide soup to nuts service and are very easy to work with.  I've kept him in my pocket and didn't share him with others for several years -- but I think the time has come for the word to get out!"
Elizabeth W. Eversen, Director of Marketing,
Good Sam Club

"...quality thinking both strategically and tactically and fast turnaround time on 'hot' projects without compromising quality.  Thomas Selleck is easy to work with and also provides high levels of customer service.  Thomas has consistently produced a number of 'control' packages for me, and I would confidently recommend his services to any direct marketer."  
Ken Schneider, Direct Marketing Manager, NISSAN

As an innovative thinker and on-target marketer:
“Thomas Selleck has an uncanny ability to tune in to the needs and expectations of the targeted audience – and reach them in appropriate and compelling language.  As a professional writer I especially appreciate his talent for producing powerful, persuasive copy and his creativity in developing fresh and suitable concepts.  You’re in for a treat when you retain him on your next marketing project -- he’s truly a pleasure to work with!"  
Jennifer Hawthorne, Co-Author, Chicken Soup for the Woman's Soul

As a direct response copywriter, editor and designer:
"Truly a lot more than a writer ... Thomas Selleck is:

Original -- he has originated some of our most successful mailings.

On Target -- he quickly and accurately grasps the main benefits of a product and the essence of a direct marketing assignment.

Dependable -- always delivers on time.

Thorough -- he covers details, dialogs, does a complete job.

Remarkably Co-Operative -- what I need in a hurry, Thomas does in a hurry.

Successful -- a great number of Thomas's packages have become 'controls'."
