Mindy Gantner and I have crossed career paths several times over the past two decades. I trust her judgement and recommendations with no hesitation. She brings a level of knowledge and expertise to media buying that is top notch. She introduced me to her team at Explore that holds her same high standards for performance and professionalism. It's been an extremely beneficial partnership for Downtown Boulder and I'd highly recommend the Explore Communications team to anyone looking for the best in media planning and buying services.
