Two of the best media minds today have created a simple, elegant model for the new micromedia world.  Beyond concept, Barbara and Rusty show us how to utilize tested strategies for building and strengthening our own media platforms rather than depending on the elusive dictates of the traditional gatekeepers.

Rory Vaden
Cofounder of Southwestern Consulting and New York Times bestselling author of Take the Stairs

Rusty and his team have a keen understanding of the most critical components of the social media web, and more importantly, a talent for helping reach our audience in an authentic and incredibly creative fashion. They craft strategies that “stick” and have long-lasting impact, and they are masters of integrating traditional PR with the world of the web. Perhaps, most important, the style at Shelton – everyone on the team not only knew our work as well as we did, but was also responsive, friendly and easy to work with. Thank you!”

Claire Shipman
ABC News Journalist and New York Times Bestselling Author

There are a million people online who promise to help you with buzz, hype and promotion. Currently, all it takes to be considered a ‘social media expert,’ is to own a Twitter account. But Shelton Interactive are operating at a different level. Their work and real expertise were critical to the successful launch of my latest book ‘Do Over.’ I highly recommend them!”

Jon Acuff

Your work is absolutely remarkable from a design, content, creative, and quality standpoint. I am also continually blown away by how amazing the backend functions for the sake of scaling in the future. You have clearly thought way ahead of where we even are right now! I am excited to highly recommend you guys and will plan on doing a lot more in the future!”
