      As a small business, my online presence is all-important and crucial to the success of my business. Brandmagic addressed all of my branding needs above and beyond my expectations. They developed my logo design, my website, and assisted with my online profiles in a way that truly captures the essence of my business and what I want potential customers to know about me. As a result of the creative force behind Brandmagic, I gained new clients and established my business in my region. I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Brandmagic, and I am looking forward to using them again in the near future.

      Branding Review from Andy Dickhut

      Ive had the opportunity to collaborate with numerous creative agencies throughout my career and BayCreative has delivered the level of insight, professionalism, and genuine partnership that I have experienced with the best of them. They have been true collaborators, invested in CFCUs vision and committed to helping us bring it to life.Our relationship with BayCreative began when we sought to undertake a full-scale rebranding initiative. CFCU has always prided itself on serving our community with a people-first approach, but we needed a refreshed identity that reflected who weve become and where were heading. We didnt just want a new logo or a new color palettewe wanted to redefine what Community First stood for in the modern financial landscape. BayCreative understood that right away.From the earliest discovery conversations, the BC team listened carefully, challenged us thoughtfully, and helped uncover an authentic narrative at the core of our brand. They guided us not toward trends or gimmicks, but toward something enduring and true to who we are.They have a team of talented creatives who brought our new brand identity to life. From graphic designers to copywriters to video editors, the BayCreative team demonstrated deep expertise. The final deliverables included a refreshed logo, a full identity package, and a bold new brand positioning platform we now call The New Local. This wasnt just a tagline or a sloganit was a strategic redefinition of who we are and why we exist. If you are looking for an agency that will take the time to understand your organization, push your thinking in productive ways, and deliver exceptional creative with professionalism, I cannot recommend BayCreative more highly. They are the real deal!

      Mike R.'s Review Sourced from Google

      Be very careful! This was by far the worst experience I've ever had with a vendor. After a week of running the campaign we learned that most of the clicks were coming from Kansas! After numerous conference calls, emails and a screen-share session they tried to explain why none of the clicks were in our targeted area which is insane! Their reasoning was that if the user didn't have their location data on then the default was Kansas (middle of the USA apparently)- my response was - if the user does not have their location data on why/how are we targeting them in the first place? Just be aware and make sure you're tracking on your end, otherwise they will tell you everything is perfectly fine! smh.

      I've collaborated with SEMbyotic on multiple projects over the years, and I'm consistently impressed. Adam brings not only deep industry knowledge but also a pragmatic, results-driven approach to every engagement, whether it's launching a new ad campaign, ongoing web development, or an eye-grabbing animation. His insight and reliability make him exactly the kind of partner any startup or enterprise would be lucky to have.

      Working with Adam and the SEMbyotic team for our web projects have been great. They can quickly react to requests/questions we have about our website and even optimize to make it better than it was before. And the best part is that they are really easy to work with and help to explain everything simply so even a non-web educated person can understand. Would recommend them for any web-related project!

I have been calling them for weeks and so far no response. When I told them that I wanted a refund, they quiclky put some items on the website. They are very dishonest
