What they are Saying...

"Phoenix Picks is AMAZING!!! Having a 9-month-old at home and starting my new business I have lost touch with my inner rock-star. Phoenix Picks does all the work for me so I can 'appear' to have my finger on the pulse. It's like Arizona's best-kept secret... besides Dicks Hideaway."

A snippet from www.HauteAZ.com:
Phoenix Picks is a "haute" new life + style website featuring the best in Arizona living.  I had the pleasure of meeting Somlynn Rorie - the Managing Editor - and she's a peach.  We laughed over similiar stories of shared stomping grounds back in the day and I got to hear about her vision for Phoenix Picks...

"I have had some great feedback from the writeup and look forward to checking out the other boutiques listed.  Phoenix is lucky to have this fabulous resource!"
~ Allison, Madame Fortuna

"Thanks for a great article! You did a beautiful job writing it. We had two customers pop in today because of it."
~ Sarah, Passage

Many thanks to you - from all the darlings - for our HOT listing in Chick Picks, we loved it!
~ Maureen Puia, smashing darling.com

"I am so excited that you are now in Phoenix. I lived in Portland/Seattle for 20 years and moved to Phoenix five years ago now. Had to leave the rain, but with your Portland/Seattle Picks I feel like I never left the NW. So thank you for the e-mails in my inbox. I hope you continue those Picks and make Phoenix just as exciting to read and venture out and discover upon."
~ Christine
