A preview of what LinkedIn members have to say about David:

  • “
    From working with David Parmet at Environics, one thing is certain -- he knows his stuff. Beyond being a smart and savvy PR guy, David had his finger on the pulse of where the industry was headed and knew that social media and blogging was going to be big. He taught the agency how to work with bloggers years before that was considered the norm and I’d definitely consider David an expert and asset to the firm.
  • “
    David is one of the guiding lights in that murky area where social media and P.R. overlap. He constantly promotes better approaches to public relations that work with, not against, the new technologies of the social Web. His brand of P.R. capitalizes on the openness of social media to deliver messages that are honest and crisp -- as well as more effective for clients. Those of us active in the social media world are lucky to have his insights.
