"Andy Ellwood has the rare ability to perfectly combine creativity with business and create innovative new deals. I have had the pleasure of working with Andy on numerous projects CNN and Gowalla have done together. Each deal, Andy was client focused, cued in to everyone's needs and delivered above and beyond. Andy hustles from city to city, project to project with a focus on quality. You also may want to ask Andy about his pocket squares or cowboy boots.” - Eric Kuhn, Audience Interaction Producer, CNN “Mr. Ellwood is a savvy and effective business development and sales guy. But more importantly, he's a honest sales guy you can trust and rely on for good advice and industry knowledge. The technology space is saturated with ineffective and disingenuous sales people. Thankfully Andy is one of the good guys: he knows his stuff, sees the big picture, and makes you feel good while closing the sale. Guys like this are few and far between.” - Dan Patterson, Digital Platform Manager, ABC News Radio
