      Orbit Media Studios in Chicago is the "James Clear" of digital marketing content creators.

      We’ve been working with Orbit Media since 2010, and they just helped us successfully launch our second website. Their process is thorough, clear, and easy to manage. Orbit walks you through each step, making sure everything is handled smoothly. They are open to ideas, and even if they don’t have an immediate solution, they always find one and respond quickly. When we’ve needed emergency assistance, they’ve been incredibly responsive, usually within a few hours. We’ve never had issues with our site going down, and I highly recommend this team for their reliability and expertise!

      Megan Folkman's Review Sourced from Google

      My company had a pretty horrible experience with this company! They overpromised and underdelivered, the project management experience was clunky, confusing and repetitive, there was a lot of work on the part of the client to complete (when you're paying $25K you'd expect it to be seamless). Topics during conversations were forgotten, instructions had to be repeated multiple times. Upon completion, we allowed one of our freelancers access to the coding and she deemed it "lazy coding." The whole experience was very unfortunate!
