   The importance of working with and knowing the right people
The proof is in the names that have already entrusted Two Blue Rhino with their own expeditionary forays into successful expansion. And equally as important to you, is the Rolodex of contacts and colleagues Two Blue Rhino works with day-in and day-out to blaze a trail of success for their clients. Here are some testimonials from some of our valued clients and colleagues:

"Being able to tap the expertise and industry relationships of Nory LeBrun has been vital to securing long-term affiliation agreements with every distribution point, from major MSO’s through small independents. Two Blue Rhino has worked with us since 1998, first at the WB and most recently at the CW. Nory and his team carefully crafted complex distribution partnerships that bridged the Cable and Broadcast landscape. Two Blue Rhino was instrumental in the smooth transition from the WB/WB 100+ to The CW/CW PLUS. LeBrun facilitated the Cable-Only platform transition to Broadcast-digital distribution, endemic to the 100+, as well as continued Cable-Only carriage in some markets. He also advised the Network and prospective affiliates on retransmission relationships---in both Top 99 DMA’s and 100+ markets. Today Two Blue Rhino continues to advise the CW PLUS on Cable and DBS matters, post total distribution of the WB 100+ and the successful transition of WB/UPN to The CW. Nory LeBrun and Two Blue Rhino are and have been true PARTNERS for years---we look forward to future success!"

At the beginning of CNN, Nory LeBrun provided our first 25 million subscribers. We were fighting for awareness, acceptance, distribution. Nory designed a sales and distribution plan that put CNN on cable companies and helped turned it into a hugely profitable company. Nory was with me when we started the Food Network. Again, he designed the sales and distribution plan, hired the original staff. And now the Food Network is hugely profitable. He grew the Home Shopping Network by 40%. He cleared the WB 100 Plus throughout the United States. Without LeBrun’s distribution plan, these networks might still be languishing. But providing carriage, True Blue Rhino turns ideas into successful businesses. It can’t do better in today’s competitive environment.

"Nory helped us create the business plan for Gospel Music Channel and his skills have been essential to the tremendous growth of the network since launching in October 2004. He reached out to his investment contacts who subsequently provided the financing to launch the network, worked with us to create the sales and distribution plan and got out there and made it grow. Nory’s expertise and relationships, tenacity, hard work and management skills have helped put GMC on the map. When you want Cable, DBS, and Telco distribution, especially in today’s competitive environment, Two Blue Rhino gets the job done."
