      Michal Morgan's Review Sourced from Google

      This company is deplorable! To keep it simple, we used a "free" consultation from Mojo Dojo and didn't sign on with them. So what do they do? They go to your competitors and let them know you are engaging in SEO and try to leverage that to gain a new client (your competitor). We called them out on their unethical behaviour, and of course, because they are an immoral company, they create fake Google accounts to leave one-star reviews (check out Fit Test Australia) for the evidence. The fragility of this company is concerning but I guess that's what we should expect. If they waste time creating fake accounts to review bomb an honest Australian company, how much time are they spending on their clients? Food for thought.Updated response: You signed on a competitor, "Fit Test Vic" after we went our seperate ways, and the screenshot shows you knew our direct competitors. The only threats were from Ajay who was constantly shouting at Rebekah over the phone. They didn't take their reviews down by choice, Google removed them. In your massive response about dates and times (apparently over 50 hours was spent working with us, glad that fluff was not billable), you ignore to mention your fake review campaign? I can see you added some fake 5-star reviews to your own Google page. How many of your reviews are real?Again just more lies and trying to bury the truth; please check our second attachment about when we told them we were not interested and went our seperate ways, no "asking more questions about strategy"This is clearly a case of a bigger company intimidating and threatening us because we submitted an honest review. Now we are paying the price (fake reviews on our business). Maybe it's better to keep our mouth shut and let companies be unethical and dishonest?

      What a fantastic experience working with DreamCo Design! Jay was incredibly professional and helpful. We got started right away on building my website for a book I hope to see published. Sarah worked diligently on the design and included me in every step, explaining things thoroughly and communicating in a timely manner. The price was reasonable and well worth it for the product I received. I couldn't be more thrilled with their beautiful work! Even after the process was completed, they have maintained communication and check in to see how things are going. I would absolutely recommend DreamCo Design if you are seeking a wonderfully crafted website, tailored to your specific interests by a talented team of people.

      We randomly found DreamCo Design online. It was actually their design style and energy that first caught our eye, but creative design is just the beginning. Their professionalism, client interaction, and execution are the real trademarks of this firm, and what makes us love working with them. DreamCo Design has done multiple projects for us over the years, and we absolutely love working with Jay and his team.

      We contacted Jay and his team to design a website as well as a theme around our company logo. We are new and so it was a ground up project. The team at DreamCo design delivered what was asked and the site has been up and running since! Real person, real review. Chris; managing partner with Poseidon Charters Inc in Turks and Caicos.

Frequently Asked Questions

What services do digital marketing agencies provide?

Digital marketing agencies manage businesses' online advertising efforts with the core intent of improving their online presence, raising brand awareness, improving digital visibility, and helping them close more sales.  

Their portfolio covers a variety of digital marketing services, but in general, they focus on one or a combination of the following key services: 

  • Search engine optimization (SEO) 
  • Social media marketing 
  • Content marketing and content creation 
  • Web design 
  • Affiliate marketing 
  • Email marketing 
  • Paid advertising 

The portfolio of full-service digital marketing agencies often extends to influencer marketing, conversion rate optimization (CRO), marketing automation, event planning, and analytics.  

How much do digital marketing services cost?

On average, digital marketing firms charge $5,000 per project, while enterprise packages may reach $67,000+. Overall, the final cost is determined based on the service type, number of channels, expected deliverables, market, office location, and the complexity of the request.  

In that regard, different digital marketing services entails different price: 

  • Search engine optimization (SEO): On average, $2,500 per project or $833 per month for continued optimization 
  • Pay-per-click (PPC): $12,500 per project or $2,500 per month for Google ads and other paid media, not including ad spend 
  • Social media management: Usually costs $2,500 per project or $1,354 per month, with full digital marketing strategy work averaging $36,250 per project or $6,563 per month 
  • Google Ads management: $2,500 per project or about $365 per month 
  • Link building: Depending on outreach volume and authority targets, it goes from $10,000 per month 

When can clients expect ROI from digital marketing?

The return of investment (ROI) in digital marketing follows an S-curve where costs are high initially, followed by a period of exponential profit as the data matures. In the beginning, ROI is usually negative or neutral and businesses are paying for the setup, i.e., the research, the ideation, technical audits, and creative development. Basically, it's a learning curve period of understanding which keywords, audiences, sentiments, and channels work for the intended objectives. 

For companies seeking fast return of value, paid channels are the primary choice of medium as they provide immediate cash flow while the slower, free traffic sources like SEO are being built. On the other hand, for compounding business growth, the highest ROI usually comes from content and search engine optimization. These assets can be quite beneficial but take 6 to 12 months for sustained growth. 

What digital channel delivers the best ROI?

Email marketing remains the most profitable advertising medium in 2026, securing $36 to $40 on average for every $1 spent. The channel works well because the business owns the contact list and doesn't have to allocate additional resources to reach the intended audience. Here's how other digital marketing channels compare: 

Channel Average ROI 
SEO5:1 to 10:1
PPC (Google Ads) 2:1 to 4:1
Paid social 1.5:1 to 3:1
Content marketing4:1 to 7:1

Standard industry performance metrics categorize a 3:1 to 5:1 (earning $3 to $5 for every dollar invested) return as an indicator for sustainable growth. A ratio under 2:1 is generally classified as underperforming, necessitating a re-evaluation of the conversion funnel. 

Notably, while a 10:1 return appears highly favorable, it actually suggests that the organization is playing it too safe and should spend more money now to obtain more customers before their competitors do.  

How much should businesses invest in digital marketing on a monthly basis?

Marketing budgets vary by industry, with some companies dedicating as little as 5% from their total revenue to over 15% across competitive verticals like eCommerce and financial services. To avoid spreading their budgets too thin, this is how businesses usually disperse their marketing budgets: 

  • 40 to 50% toward search ads: Targeting people that actively look for the product/service 
  • 20 to 30% toward social media marketing and retargeting: Remaining present among people who have already visited the site 
  • 10 to 20% toward SEO services and content: Building organic traffic that lowers average cost-per-lead (CPL) over 6 to 12 months 
  • 10 to 15% toward retention (email marketing/SMS marketing): Marketing to people who have already bought from the business as it's 5x cheaper than finding new customers
