Recommendations & Referrals
When you have a special guest in town and you want to take them somewhere spectacular to eat, do you go to the small dive restaurant that specializes in only a few dishes – that you know will leave them speechless – or do you take them to the big chain restaurant with average food, but there’s something for everyone?
For us, it’s hands down the dive restaurant. Every. Single. Time. Why? Because we believe specialization is the key element in delivering high quality. Sure, we could offer a ton of services and never say “no” so we could cash in on every opportunity that comes our way… but as consumers ourselves we believe focusing on one or two things and doing them well, will always deliver a better product.
This is why Picture KC does not aim to be a one-stop-shop for photography. Rather, we want your business, our business, and other local Kansas City businesses to grow together by providing top-notch services, products, and resources that truly let your business reach it’s full potential!
Below you will find resources that we recommend for a variety of real estate, build, and design industry related business needs.
Do you know someone who delivers an exceptional product or service in the property marketing world? We’d love to hear who you think should be our next trusted resource!
All recommendations are unsolicited and referrals we have personally used and recommend.
