Video Production Review from Bryce McPartland
We were referred to colormatics by our ad people at krem. We compared pricing and products of colormatics against a number of industry-specific marketing providers. Colormatics had the strongest portfolio and, surprisingly, offered exceptional pricing.Colormatics laid out a full shoot schedule which was pre-approved. They arrived on scene early one morning and traveled across central Washington to four separate locations to make an exceptionally tight yet comprehensive video about our firm. We began around 8 am and wrapped about 430 pm.Colormatics maintained excellent lines of communication including via email, text, cell and the video editing platform that they utilized. I always felt "in the loop" with them.
Video Production Review from Allison Grunthaner Gibicsar
Colormatics has been an outstanding partner in creating a huge amount of assets needed for our biggest product launch of 2023. This includes but is not limited to: social media videos, product videos, mattress cutaway visualizations, YouTube bumpers, edited b-roll, and more. The whole team is always willing to hop on the phone or quickly answer an email, with fast asset delivery and willingness to bring forth suggestions/solves outside of their scope.
Video Production Review from Ryan Throckmorton
Our team developed the idea of showcasing individuals who are making a positive impact online within their own communities. When we shared the concept with Colormatics, they immediately explored creative ways to bring it to life visually. They transformed our vision into a compelling visual narrative.The final piece blended live-action footage with motion graphics. We conducted interviews and also wanted to highlight the social media activity of these community members. Their profiles were used as a storytelling device, appearing almost like flashbacks, but animated in a way that made the content feel like it was unfolding in real time.We’re now experimenting with turning interview voiceovers into animated illustrations. We believe these could resonate even more on social platforms. The plan was to compare performance between the two video styles, and we’re looking forward to testing them soon.

SEO Review from Łukasz Fido
We have used Tech Savy Crew now going on 3 years. Our SEO rankings and eCommerce sales have been fantastic over that time span. More than I could have anticipated. This team knows what they are doing in the complex SEO world and are a huge asset to us. 3 years ago, we had basically 0 online presence. Now, we are consistently ranking #1 on Google for our best-selling products. (Verified via email)

Digital Marketing Review from Randy Hill
We hired Allegiant Digital Marketing after several failed attempts with other digital marketing agencies to help us generate business from the internet. They helped build our new website and run our PPC and SEO. As soon as we began working with them we noticed instantly a pretty substantial uptick in our digital leads. Not only are they really good at what they do, but they really show they care about our business by going above and beyond for us. Highly recommended!
Arthur Choi's Review Sourced from Google
Allegiant Digital Marketing has gone above and beyond for us time and time again—handling complex website migrations, hitting emergency deadlines, and delivering the impossible with incredible skill. So many times, when our company was in a bind, Chad and his team stepped in and saved the day for us. Whether or not that is fixing caching issues, delivering on technical SEO requests, and providing us with an actionable marketing strategy to help our company stand out from the rest of the competition. Chad Markham, the owner, brings vast expertise not just in marketing but also in the M&A space across diverse industries like HVAC, tree care, restoration, roofing, and eCommerce. His team is equally outstanding, especially Chris Tucker (no relation to the celebrity!), who has consistently prioritized our needs even during their busiest times. We’re infinitely grateful for their dedication and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top-tier marketing partner!
Gregette Smith's Review Sourced from Google
We couldn't be more impressed with the exceptional service provided by this digital marketing company.

The professionalism, responsiveness, and expertise they bring to the table have been invaluable to our growth. From improving our online presence to generating quality leads, they’ve been an incredible partner every step of the way. The detailed reporting and proactive communication give us confidence in their ability to adapt and optimize our campaigns. We highly recommend them to any business looking for a reliable marketing partner for RHP.

Tina Loren's Review Sourced from Google
Exceptional studio, powerful platform, and great people.I (@TheTinaLoren) had the opportunity to do an interview at Real News Public Relations about a year and a half ago, and just recently returned to record a podcast with Mary Blake and both experiences were outstanding. The studio is not only beautiful, but it’s also set up for serious content creation: sleek, professional, and designed to make you feel confident on camera.Jeff Crilley has built something truly special here. His background in journalism shows in the way the team operates, with integrity, professionalism, and an understanding of how to help you share your message with impact. You can tell there’s a real passion for elevating voices and giving entrepreneurs, experts, and changemakers a platform that feels both credible and high-quality.If you're looking for a media studio in Dallas that delivers both polish and purpose, this is the place.
Susham Modi's Review Sourced from Google
Real News is an absolutely amazing team. Every single person that works here really cares about your company and they put in the extra effort at every turn, are super responsive and want to get out your content to help educate the public. Their studio is amazing and high quality. Jeff the CEO literally responds instantly via text, Lauren has edited my videos into amazing short reels, MacKenzie did a great job with my FAQ's, Laura got me on FOX news multiple times, and Josh said he'd deliver over 20 media interviews in a month and him and their team delivered! Ziggy puts in so much effort editing the videos so they're top quality and is always there to answer questions from my team. Thanks to them I have literally been on multiple local news channels across the U.S. in the last month, have got over 40k views on my channel alone in less than a month and I'm honored and thankful to have them on my team so we can help the public together. I very highly recommend them.
Cambridge Caregivers's Review Sourced from Google
With no prior public speaking or media experience, I just wrapped up the 51st episode of the Manchester Living Podcast, recorded at Real News Media Studio in Dallas.The goal of the podcast has always been to help people navigate the complex and often overwhelming maze of eldercare. From concept to launch—and every episode in between—Jeff and his incredible team at Real News Media have guided me every step of the way.They’ve connected me with potential guests, offered invaluable advice on social media strategy, and helped me turn each episode into a meaningful tool for reaching my target audience.Educating people on eldercare is my passion, and Real News Media gave me the platform to make it happen. I’m truly grateful!

Public Relations Review from Ramsey Bergeron
I engaged Pressiqa (invoiced via The Alpha Linkers Limited) for a paid, guaranteed placement in an MSN Top 10 [category] to Follow in 2025 article. Scope included a short feature paragraph, an SEO backlink, and a social graphic to announce the feature. I paid USD 400 on Apr 9, 2025.An MSN link with my name did go live, but only for a few days before becoming inaccessible without notice. After the takedown, Pressiqa proposed publishing my profile on a different website (ceogazette.com) that I had not agreed to. I asked for documentation of the cited MSN policy change; none was provided to me. I was also sent a promotional graphic that used Microsoft/MSN branding and stated msn.com names [my name] among the Top 10, which in my view implies an editorial accolade I did not receive.The short-lived link created practical problems. I had already shared the MSN URL in proposals, my media kit, and social posts; when it disappeared, those assets contained dead links and I had to remediate them, which impacted credibility with clients and event planners.I filed a PayPal dispute for service not as described, attaching the contract/pitch, invoice, screenshots of the dead link, and emails offering a substitute site. On Aug 12, 2025, PayPal closed the case in my favor and refunded the payment.Communication was prompt but did not resolve core issues or provide third-party documentation supporting the removal. Based on my documented experience, I would not engage again.If you consider services like this, insist on a minimum publication duration in writing, verify the hosting platforms policies directly, avoid substitutions you didnt agree to, and pay through a method with buyer protection.
