We are tired of the threats, harassment, and unethical business practices associated with Mike Taylor and Levi Hancock of Golden Hills Marketing/Hill Country Breaking News. They have used their positions to bullying and intimidate members of the public; including threats, harassing messages and calls, driving by people's homes, and other methods. As well, numerous incidents have occurred while on scene to film or obtain photos for stories on their page. This behavior has been a regular occurrence for several months or longer; causing numerous people to leave their page or stop doing business with them. However, when people attempt to speak out they are threatened or harassed. This must stop. This is not behavior that should be acceptable for any local business; and the people who live here and do business should not feel unsafe.

We are asking you, the businesses who sponsor this page or advertise with them, to join us in saying we will no longer allow this. Your name and reputation is associated with Golden Hills Marketing; and this reflects upon you. Join us in saying we will not tolerate a business that runs this way. We, the citizens of Kerrville, will not support a business that runs in an unethical, bullying, or harassing manner; if you continue to support Golden Hills Marketing/Hill Country Breaking news we will no longer do business with you.

The previous image has been removed as numerous sponsors have not renewed contracts with Golden Hills Marketing. We do not want to continue to reach out or list a business that has discontinued sponsoring or advertising. We will try to provide updated information or visit the Hill Country Breaking News Webpage.

Mike harassed my family for weeks because we disagreed with one of his posts. It was scary having them show up at my house late at night. Glad someone is finally calling them out!

I did advertising with him on a couple of different ventures. Was never pleased with the outcome and my advice on how to handle my line of work to relay to the public fell on deaf ears. He talked me into to paying three months in advance by discounting the monthly cost. A month and a half into it (if even that long) he stopped doing the show we’d agreed on for my sponsorship. Instead, putting it on some online radio app he had started that he has since left behind. I told him I didn’t want to advertise further until he got something solid, steady, and most of all professional going. My experiences with him were not fruitful in any way but instead, financial wasteful and harmful to my business as the crowd he draws tends to be far from the patrons I’d wish to have as clients.

I was banned from the Kerrville breaking news group for NO reason.

It's time to speak out, enough is enough.
