Here’s some feedback we’ve received from clients who have had Elite Consultancy with Tom.

I wanted you to know I had a great talk with Tom Craig this evening.  We spoke for more than an hour. 

The important thing is he liked the script, so it wasn’t like he told me to scrap the work and start over doing something else.”

“He was very complimentary and he gave me two ideas that I am weaving into the plot…”

“He gave me some real insight into what it would take for this good script to be great.  He put me on the right track and I’m eager to apply what he said.”

“he confirmed my belief the country in which to find a sympathetic producer.”

Tom has also suggested “…producers that he would recommend contacting.”
