My firm, Mount Yale Capital Group, LLC, retained Cat & Tonic to create a new digital persona for our Private Wealth Management business and I can say that working with the C&T team was an absolute pleasure as they spent the time to learn the intricacies of our business so they were able to bring us many well thought out, super creative ideas, resulting in a digital persona that far exceeded all our expectations and set us apart in a fairly crowded space, and did so by meeting or beating all deadlines and delivering a finished product under budget. I can't endorse Cat & Tonic strongly enough other than to say that going forward I will use them for all my firm’s digital marketing needs.

Company: ProSource Guttering After 27 meetings with digital marketing agencies and investing a total of 46 hours, I chose Agency Jet to handle my SEO needs. I conducted extensive due diligence on every company I spoke with (outlined below) to ensure I made the best decision. My first meeting was with Julie, whose immense knowledge of SEO immediately stood out. I spent about an hour asking her detailed questions, followed by a 30-minute meeting with the Google Ads team. I then scheduled another 1.5-hour meeting with Julie to dive deeper into SEO strategies. Finally, I met with the development team. Based on these interactions, I decided to partner with Agency Jet for SEO services, though I opted not to use them for Google Ads. My Due Diligence Process: 1.Reviews •I analyzed Google Reviews and Glassdoor feedback (to understand the work environment from employees’ perspectives). •Most importantly, I relied on Clutch.co reviews, as they conduct in-depth, 30-minute interviews with customers for a more comprehensive evaluation. 2.Online Presence •Since my goal was to enhance my online visibility, I prioritized companies with a strong digital presence. •I evaluated their monthly organic traffic and analyzed the keywords they ranked for to gauge their expertise. 3.Clients’ Organic Traffic •Using SEMrush (a tool that allows 10 free searches per day per account), I reviewed their clients’ webpages to track organic search performance. •This revealed valuable insights, such as monthly traffic, and how many keywords ranked in positions 1–3, 4–10, and beyond. •This method exposed several questionable companies, making it an essential step in my process. 4.Interviews •I prepared challenging questions, including test questions for which I already knew the answers. •This allowed me to assess their transparency and trustworthiness based on the accuracy of their responses. To be clear I have not yet started work with them. I will be updating this review as time goes on.

We retained 9th Wonder for a 6-month branding project. This came in the wake of two key acquisitions that expanded our existing markets and opened new, adjacent markets as well. We sought agency help to reposition the company and update/consolidate the brand to reflect the evolution of our business. The team at 9th Wonder came in and drove the project with focus, creativity, and great insight. With 9th Wonder, we had a genuine, invested partner who brought the invaluable expertise that we did not have in-house. They produced the entire slate of core deliverables: discovery docs, internal and customer interviews, messaging platform development, logo and collateral design, web site assessment and optimization, and market testing. The final deliverables were outstanding, and we’re now positioned—from a brand perspective—to accommodate additional growth and expansion for at least the next 5 years. Would I seek help from 9th Wonder should another large-scale marketing project arise? You bet. It’s the first call I’d make.
