  • "We love Sweet Rickey", is the one consistent comment I get from agencies and clients. On every single job. Always. I've worked with Sweet Rickey on numerous projects with big budgets, small budgets, challenging creative ideas, no time to produce projects... you name it. They have always over-delivered. When you work with Sweet Rickey you can put a big check mark on creativity, outstanding service, top quality product, partnership, honesty, collaboration... I can keep going, but you get the idea. If you are a producer or a creative and have not yet had the opportunity to work with Sweet Rickey, I strongly recommend that you do. They are one of the most collaborative companies I have ever worked with, the service they provide is unmatched, and their willingness to go above and beyond to make your project great is unrivaled in our industry."

  • "I’ve had the pleasure of working with Sweet Rickey on a number of occasions. They always bring their “A-Game.” In this industry they have the respect, the experience and the passion that makes them invaluable creative partners. They are solely committed to taking creative ideas to the next level. Every production I’ve worked on was totally locked in and locked down. The producers have a knack for making sure everyone’s voices are heard. Scooter is a master at running a tight ship all the while keeping a smile on his face. Should a problem arise, Vanessa will make it disappear without you even knowing about it. Did I mention they are super fun to work with? I’m looking forward to collaborating on our next production."
