Testimonials

“Textbook sales are a significant part of our business, but we lacked the in-house sales support that major textbook publishers have. BMG fills that gap for us--engaging directly with professors and closing adoption sales. BMG uses proprietary software and their deep knowledge of the textbook market to identify strong leads and pursue them. BMG's strong advance work on forthcoming textbooks enables us to recoup our investment in textbooks sooner. Shortly after the sales team started working for us, we saw the results of their strategies. By the time our new Russian textbook hit the warehouse, we already had a good number of firm course adoptions. I highly recommend BMG. They are ideal partners for modest-sized publishers who want the same experience and effectiveness as an in-house sales team at one of the large corporate textbook publishers.”

“Brian Murphy Group is professional, self-sufficient and not afraid to make a decision on behalf of Wiley in order to move an initiative forward. They know the higher ed market and instill a great degree of confidence that they can be successful without a lot of support or time invested from the home team. But, they are not afraid to ask questions and ask for what they need to be successful. A highly focused team.”

“We have worked with the Brian Murphy Group since 2010 on targeted e-mail campaigns for our textbook program.

“In 2014, we employed the Brian Murphy Group to help us better identify target customers for some of our markets. The Murphy group worked hard to identify decision makers and specific customer contact information so that we could run a successful campaign. As a result we saw several of our products increase sales due to the improved information and allowing us success in markets we had not entered previously. Their work was thorough and timely. We would absolutely use them again.”

He is a great listener who quickly understands a customer’s goals while keeping in mind the mission and goals of the company.
