eCommerce Review from Anonymous
Right after launching our campaigns with Disruptive, we saw results almost instantly. Our monthly revenue jumped from about $50,000 to over $70,000. Every key Google Ads metric improved, and by November, we were already nearing $550,000 in revenue, well on track to hit our $700,000 annual goal.
PPC Review from Anonymous
We’ve been working with Disruptive on a long-term PPC strategy, and they’re constantly optimizing campaigns and landing pages based on performance. They use Google Analytics to ensure accurate tracking, Unbounce for landing page testing, and run ads through Google and LinkedIn, with knowledgeable experts for each channel.
Digital Marketing Review from Jackie Arends
Disruptive Advertising is in charge of our online advertising, which includes PPC, social media marketing on Facebook, email marketing, and, more recently, Amazon marketing. They create content for the campaigns and manage them, create email templates, and automate [...] email marketing campaigns. Regarding our PPC efforts, we focus on Google Ads and Facebook Ads, and we recently started our Bing advertising efforts as well. Our ROAS is currently at about 4X5X. (Verified via email)

Webflow Review from Hannah Reid-Foley
It is great working with Davi & team! They are extremely knowledgeable and thorough with their work. Easy to get along with and quick to answer any questions we may have.
Webflow Review from Melissa Valentino
We've partnered with Curio Digital for about five years, and they have become one of the most trusted extension teams we work with. As a creative agency, having dependable development partners is critical, and Curio consistently exceeds expectations. They have supported TDH Creative on numerous Webflow website projects, and the quality of their work is exceptional. Their development is clean, thoughtful, and technically sound, but what really sets them apart is their communication and project management. They're responsive, proactive, transparent, and consistently deliver on what they commit to. As an account lead, that level of reliability makes a tremendous difference. Curio has also been incredibly collaborative throughout the creative process. They work seamlessly with our designers and strategists, offering solutions when challenges arise while always respecting the creative vision. They don't simply execute requirements they think through the best approach and genuinely care about delivering the best possible outcome for both us and our clients. Another aspect I appreciate is their pricing. They provide outstanding value for the quality of work they deliver, and I've always found them to be fair, honest, and transparent when it comes to estimates and project scope. If you're looking for a Webflow development partner that combines technical expertise, exceptional communication, reliability, and a true collaborative spirit, I would highly recommend Curio Digital. They've been an outstanding partner to TDH Creative, and I look forward to continuing our relationship for years to come.
B2B Review from Andrew Stiefel
The Curio team has helped us evolve the Endor Labs website from selling a single product, to a single buyer, to selling multiple products to the full enterprise buying committee. Part of that included building product-led experience for platform engineers and developers alongside our existing inbound sales motion for security teams, and rapidly evolving the brand and content. The team is incredibly responsive, often turning work around same day or within a week as we prepare for major industry events and respond to industry shifts. They're fantastic partners, great humans, and I couldn't recommend them faster!

Lauren Bergiel's Review Sourced from Google
I felt comfortable every step of the way. I was very nervous to shoot a video because I so desperately wanted to get things right. They put me at ease every step of the way. Honestly, It was so much easier than I could have imagined. I knew after our initial pre-shoot session that they would make me look good no matter what I said or did! They took all of my feedback in terms of the tone and mood that I wanted the video to convey and nailed It!

I'd like to particularly call out James, Joe, and Xavier for their excellent work during our engagements. Thanks t::t team for being an excellent partner!
James Fashing's Review Sourced from Google
We've worked with Thunder::tech to replace our cooperative's website. They have delivered as promised and more than expected in a professional and timely manner. Their team members are creative, technical and professional experts. We're looking forward to working on a second phase of the project with them starting soon. T::T is big enough a agency that they have multiple experts on the team with overlapping knowledge to get the job done, but not such a huge company where one might get lost as a client. As a web and digital media pro with 20+ years of experience, I recommend Thunder::tech. - JF

The most horrible people! They are very reckless, don’t show up to appointments. Not once, not twice but thrice. You call to ask they dodge your calls.Don’t expect call backs. I went to Derek and texted him several times about this and asked to call. Nothing! Figured a month would be long enough. Don’t waste your time on these people

Matt Granados's Review Sourced from Google
We’ve been searching for a strong marketing and PR firm for quite some time, and working with 1905 New Media has truly been a blessing. Their diligence, focus, and the ability to get us where we need to be has been a critical piece of our strategy that we’ve been missing. We haven’t found anyone else who can do it as well as they do.1905 New Media has become a key part of our long-term strategy, and there’s no question about why we’ll continue working with them. When you find a firm that is so reliable and effective, it’s a no-brainer to stick with them.If there were six stars, I would gladly give them. The ability to drive impact, regardless of industry or organizational structure, is truly amazing. We are incredibly grateful for everything they’ve done for both our for-profit business and our foundation.I can tell you clearly, every single time I’ve worked with 1905 New Media, they have been above board and completely transparent.My goal when selecting a partner isn’t to find someone who’s perfect and never misses anything. I’m looking for a firm that takes responsibility and delivers the results they commit to. In the PR and marketing world, everyone promises results, but few can actually get them. 1905 New Media gets them every time.Highly recommend 1905 New Media for anyone looking for top-notch marketing and PR expertise!

Working with INDIRAP to produce our three new brand videos was an incredible experience. As an arts advocacy organization, cinematic storytelling and high-quality visuals are essential to advancing our mission, and INDIRAP delivered on every level. They managed a highly complex, multi-city shoot across Chicago, DC, and LA with absolute professionalism. From weeks of scripting and planning to the final edit, their team captured our story beautifully. Special thanks to Lydia Smyth and Julian Tillotson for their dedication, creativity, and seamless execution.
