Web Design Review from Mackenzie Shriner
I contracted design in DC to build me a custom website. they were accommodating of my budget, very responsive, and gave good insight on layout, content and design. the process was very straightforward and the final product is great!
Web Design Review from Jo Maney
DDC has been an excellent partner since we engaged with them in 2023. The DDC team worked with us to completely redesign our website and work to provide ongoing digital marketing services. The DDC team has been responsive, proactive, and thorough with their work. They are also very transparent about how they operate and how much time special projects will require. We have referred DDC to several clients and partners thanks to their outstanding process and product. DDC is a very professional, creative, and well-organized team.
Web Design Review from Sapna Doshi, Ph.D.
My experience working with Design in DC was incredible. Everyone was friendly, approachable, and seemed to genuinely care about helping create the best possible website for my business. They were also invested in making sure the process was one in which I enjoyed and felt taken care of. The regular meetings made me feel like I was a priority and that progress was continually being made. I so appreciated the attention to detail in regards to the user experience. The collaboration in understanding my wishes and desires for the website and user experience was met with patience and paying attention to detail on my behalf. Not only were they taking my suggestions but offering their own to help me maximize the potential of my website. The design and functionality is more than what I could have imagined. I know, undoubtedly, that the work that Design in DC did for me will help my business grow. After wasting money in years past on website designers, I was worried I'd be doing hte same here. I was wrong. I don't think I'll ever need to search for another website designer group again. I would recommend this group to anyone I know. Thank you, Design in DC! It was an absolute pleasure working with all of you!

They took the time to really understand our goals and it showed in the final product. The booth felt intentional and helped us stand out without being overdone.
Charlie L's Review Sourced from Google
Had a great experience working with Exhibit Experience. Their team was professional, responsive, and detail-oriented from planning through execution.They delivered a visually strong, functional booth that aligned perfectly with my costumer’s brand and helped them stand out at a large, fast-paced event with over 18,000 attendees. Support was spot-on, allowing us to focus on making the most of the show. Marta was super helpful when we’re in a crunch during set up.We even had Jose, the CEO, reach out to us to see if there was anything else the company could do. Truly top notch customer service. Would highly recommend Exhibit Experience for any trade show or event needs.

For campaigns targeting Florida consumers, yes.
Miami, Tampa, and Orlando each operate with distinct media costs, audience behaviors, and seasonal demand patterns that out-of-state agencies consistently underestimate.
Where the local advantage matters less is in purely digital campaigns with no geographic targeting.
But if your campaign depends on local market fluency, in-state experience is worth prioritizing.
Before contacting any agency, have three things defined:
An objective like "increase brand awareness" is not sufficient. "Generate 40% more qualified leads from the Tampa market within nine months" gives an agency something concrete to build a strategy around.
You should also have existing assets organized: creative files, brand guidelines, previous campaign data, and access to your analytics platforms.
Conversion-focused campaigns, such as paid search and direct response, can show measurable results within 4 to 6 weeks.
Brand awareness campaigns typically require 3 to 6 months before recognition builds, and meaningful business results from brand-level advertising often take 12 months or more.
Data shows that campaigns with clearly defined milestones at 30-day intervals achieve 37% better ROI than those without structured timelines.
So, before signing with any Florida advertising agency, ask them to map expected outcomes to specific timeframes for your campaign type, not industry averages.
Most ad agencies in Florida structure contracts around two to three revision rounds per project.
A revision round means one consolidated set of feedback submitted by the client and addressed in full by the agency.
It does not mean an open-ended back and forth, and most agencies are strict about that distinction.
Clients most often run into problems by submitting feedback across multiple emails and calls rather than in a single document, exhausting revision rounds before the work reaches a satisfactory state.
Before the project starts, confirm in writing how revisions are defined, how overages are billed, and what the submission process looks like at each phase.
Here are some questions to ask before hiring a Florida ad agency:

A good split is 70% to 80% of your total budget going toward actual media spend, with 20% to 30% covering agency fees. When the balance shifts in the other direction, you are paying more for management than for reach, and your campaign has limited impact regardless of how well it is planned.
Ask any Florida ad agency to show you the proposed cost breakdown in writing before you sign. If the proposal does not separate agency fees from media spend, ask for that clarification before moving forward.
Many advertising agencies in Florida outsource media buying to external networks while presenting it as an in-house capability, and that distinction directly affects what you pay. When a third party is involved, each layer adds its own markup, and you have no visibility into what the media actually costs.
To get your reassurance, ask these two questions directly:
An agency that handles media buying internally will answer both questions without hesitation.
The clearest sign of misleading reporting is a monthly deck full of reach and impression numbers with no data on leads, conversions, or revenue. Watch out for:
The most common unexpected costs are media markups, revision overages, third-party production fees, and rush charges. Most proposals from Florida ad agencies quote a single fee that excludes all of them.
Before signing, ask for a written breakdown of every cost not covered by the quoted fee:
Bad engagements with Florida ad agencies follow one pattern: activity without accountability. To avoid it, do the following:
The most important red flags when evaluating top advertising agencies in Florida are performance guarantees, vague media practices, and contracts with no exit conditions. Here are some red flags to watch out for:
