“I approached Michael D. Francis Presents regarding a TV project that I’ve been trying to get moving in the right direction. I’m an award-winning experienced producer for an entertainment magazine show but I have no experience with the reality documentary genre or how to pitch such a project. After running into some roadblocks, I was fortunate enough to get in touch with Michael. He was able to help me focus on the essence of my pitch and make it crystal clear. The bottom-line, Michael saved me a ton of time and money that I would have wasted going about things the wrong way. As for results, I was able to get the project moving in the right direction and I’ve already got some interest from some important folks thanks to Michael and Michael D. Francis Presents!“
