Dear Dylan,
Scott and I are so happy that we chose you and your company, Dolphin Rose to oversee our PR campaign celebrating our 20th year anniversary for Olson Windows.
From day one, we hit the ground running, beginning with our first placement in The Daily Herald. That article gave us our first taste of high profile exposure for our business, which made our phones ring off the hook and new customer’s literally walking cold into our showroom for several days!
In fact, customer’s still reference our story in that Daily Herald business section, because, even though the piece ran hard-copy in the newspaper, our story lives permanently online on The Daily Herald’s website which has proven invaluable to my brother and I and for our SEO!
We could not have had a prouder moment than when WBBM Radio’s legendary Newsman, John Cody, personally met us on location and interviewed us for WBBM’s “Made In Chicago” segment, one of the most prestigious radio broadcast segments, on one of the top-rated stations in the country and the flagship for our beloved Chicago Bears.
Appearing on WBBM Radio was a dream come true as they ran our interview 16 times in one week! Talk about a blue-chip placement-very exciting and again, the feedback was off the charts!
From morning drive radio interviews with Greg from the IL Radio Network, to Tribune Reporter Bridget O’shea and for the wonderful blend of print, broadcast, radio and IT story placements, both Scott and I are thrilled to have chosen Dolphin Rose Music & Media Worldwide as our partner honoring our two decades in business.
You have been a hands-on, personable partner in helping us reach both our loyal, core audience whom we have serviced and continue to serve diligently, as well as having opened new pathways to customer’s in both regions where our showrooms currently stand.
Dylan, from day one you took ownership of our goals, you were passionate and enthusiastic about providing us with the opportunity for our customer’s and our target markets to get to know our story better and needless to say, we’ve had a great time celebrating our 20 year legacy which we entrusted to Dolphin Rose on the PR side.
From expert media training, to snappy news releases and our strategic sessions geared towards getting our story to the appropriate media targets, our 20th year in business has been a resounding success in terms of name recognition and sales/call to action.
Thanks a million for an incredible public relations campaign and for bringing Olson Windows newsworthy coverage that we’ll always value and reference fondly.
Warm Regards & Congratulations to you for a job well done.
— Brian & Scott Olson, Co-Founders Olson Windows

“Dolphin Rose Public Relations has the creativity, insight and an exceptional ability to take any business to the next level.” —Clark Weber Legendary Chicago Radio Personality
"I was very impressed with Dylan Jordan of Dolphin Rose Music and Media Worldwide on my recent visit to the Chicago area. Dylan arranged for a number of excellent interviews and guest appearances, and tirelessly chased down the best opportunities available. He arranged for me to give an extraterrestrial weather report on ABC-7, appear on a science quiz game show segment on WGN in Chicago, and be interviewed by ABC and CBS news in Milwaukee. He also set up print interviews with Chicago Magazine and the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The kicker was a pre-recorded interview with legendary WGN Talk Show Host and Broadcast Hall of Fame inductee and great, Milt Rosenberg who interviewed me at The Tribune Tower-Wow! Dylan has a great combination of the energy and aggression needed to be an effective media rep, with a truly kind heart and sense of fun. Dylan always had a plan for the next appearance, and he made my head spin with the sheer number and quality of opportunities he found. He is my exclusive "Go-To" for my Media Tours and the only publicist I would ever use! I would recommend him for anyone looking for media exposure in the Chicago-Milwaukee area." — Sincerely, Dr. Michelle Thaller, Astrophysicist NASA, Science & Exploration Directorate
"I met Dylan Jordan 4 years ago while completing a small maintenance project at his personal house through my side business, Silver Star Home Services. While preforming the job, he spoke with me openly about his company called Dolphin Rose and how he is able to work with businesses small and large to provide media exposure and advertising and public relations opportunities. At the time, I was a one person business and did not think much about media exposure. Dylan worked with me and opened up doors that provided me with enough business to expand and hire help.
During my time working with Dylan, my son Ryland was born with a congenital heart defect. Dylan wrote a great media piece that not only made readers aware of CDH, but also brought in more business at a much needed time in my life so I could help pay for my son's surgeries. Within the first 7 days, Dylan's piece that he composed ignited over 700 responses!
As our business and personal relationship developed and I once again called upon Dylan to help spread the word about a very close friend and coworker who passed prematurely at a young age leaving a wife and several children behind. From the second I called Dylan, he was completely dedicated to making sure my friend's story was heard by many on the North Shore. A large sum of money was raised for his family helping them through a rough time in their lives, much of which can be attributed to Dylan. The large increase in call volume I received after starting to work with Dylan confirmed my decision. The ROI from working with Dylan is still increasing today and shows no signs of slowing down. I am grateful to have met him and enjoy working with him." — Officer Ben Grum
On the Advertising Side
Mexicana Airlines: Dylan Jordan has brought many excellent opportunities to us. He has been professional in his counseling and advice and we have seen an increase in sales as a result. Dylan's "hands-on" attitude and his enthusiasm in general convinced our advertising firm, J. Walter Thompson L.A. to use his services which was a first for our Airlines in the Midwest. The outcome was first class and well worth our investment. It was Dylan's thoroughness, follow through, clear explanations and aggressiveness that prevented Mexicana from missing major sports television exposure.—M. Katherine Lorenzi, Regional Manager, Mexicana Airlines
