Testimonials

“It is very rare to find someone as enthusiastic and dedicated to their job as I consider myself to be as Manager of the singer Stephen Lloyd-Morgan. But I certainly met my match in Maria Petrak and her sheer tireless devotion to The Best of Marbella and now The Best of Vienna websites.

Soon after our first meeting in 2009 we began a promotional collaboration which, through her websites, blogs and PR networks has given me instant access to literally thousands of people while still being focused towards the most appropriate market. Far exceeding my initial expectations this relationship had not only become invaluable, but also the most important at my disposal. We wish Maria the best of luck and know her growing success is a assured.”

“I am grateful to have met Maria Petrak (Founder of The Best of Marbella.com and Vienna blog) just before I became a finalist and 7 times semi-finalist with 8 lyrics I submitted in 2009 to UKSC http://www.songwritingcontest.co.uk/

Maria helped me enormously with promoting me as a lyricist through her blog articles, press releases and connecting me with some local press and media, such as radio stations and magazines as well as her personal contacts. Since then, I received great response from The Best of Marbella associates and fans via Maria´s network. I highly recommend any business or artist to advertise on her websites and can honestly say that Maria helped me to start my career. Nowadays it is all about networking and if anyone has got the finger on the pulse, it is Maria Petrak. Deep thanks from the bottom of my heart! Lucky Vienna, you have now the same opportunity!”

“Maria,
From the first time in Nueva Andalucia, when you sat and talked with me about your new idea, “The Best of Marbella,” I have never doubted or lost faith in you and your determination and ultimate success, and I knew the many obstacles you had to overcome to reach this success.

You are firstly a giver, and have given much to your friends including me who you have generously helped with your beautiful website to keep my campaign for Marbella at the forefront.

Now it’s your time. This idea is great and could be franchized. The Best of Vienna as well as The Best of Marbella are wondeful sites that reflect your shining prsonality. I like he way you show the Testimonials, in a fine presentational style which gives importance to those who write to you.

Keep up this great effort as you will acheive all that you wish with your spirit. Remember my campaign motto. “If you do not fight for what you have or wish, you do not deserve to have it”
Dario”
