Public Relations Review from Emily Pearce
This agency was only used for a short period. A pleasant and responsive team but not quite as strong on strategy, C-Suite engagement/interviewing or ensuring our organisation provided enough information to achieve the best results.

I had the pleasure of partnering with Media FRENZY to help with brand repositioning and strategic work, and the experience was phenomenal. They were truly amazing partners—strategic, creative, and always willing to push us when needed. Their in-depth process ensured every detail was addressed, and they remained open to discussions, feedback, and exploring new concepts with us.Media FRENZY consistently brought fresh ideas to the table, showcasing their ability to think outside the box while keeping our goals at the forefront. Their collaborative approach and dedication made them excellent partners throughout the journey. Sarah, Dave and team were professional, collaborative and quite frankly, a FUN team to partner with. If you're looking for a marketing agency that combines strategy with creativity and genuinely listens to your needs, I absolutely recommend Media FRENZY.

My husband and I own a start up and have worked with Aly, Justin, and Austin at Clique for a complete rebranding and website redesign and are now working with Jeff for continuous marketing and managing our ad spend. I can’t say enough good things about this team and this company. They are creative, innovative, dedicated, and they CARE. They treat our business as their own, asking thoughtful questions and guiding us through our growth. Our new site visits have conversion rates have skyrocketed, doing daily numbers that our old site and unstructured marketing did in months. I can’t say thank you enough to this team.

I had the pleasure of having Hooman working on a project for my company. He did an excellent job! He listened carefully, showed a great deal of care for the quality of the work he produced, and willingly revised the work several times until he made sure that he and I were both happy with the final product. I will work with Hooman again, and recommend his services.

I recently worked with Hooman to build a website and design product packaging for my business, and I couldn't be happier with the results. He is incredibly professional, approachable, responsive, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. He took the time to understand our vision and preferences and incorporated them with finesse.The website they built is modern, visually appealing, and user-friendly, and the product packaging design perfectly captures the essence of the brand. Overall, I would highly recommend Hoooman Studio to anyone in need of design services. Their expertise, attention to detail, and dedication to customer satisfaction are truly impressive.

steve drizos's Review Sourced from Google
I had the pleasure of meeting with Jeff Swartz recently, and I couldn't be more impressed with Ethic’s level of professionalism and dedication to their clients. From the moment I reached out to them, I knew I was in good hands.What sets Ethic Advertising apart is their genuine willingness to listen and understand the unique needs of your business. They don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions; instead, they take the time to customize their marketing strategies to perfectly fit your goals and objectives.I highly recommend Ethic Advertising for your marketing needs. Their stellar reputation is well-deserved, and I look forward to our partnership in the future.

Greg Leach's Review Sourced from Google
We talked to numerous marketing firms across the US and most were either inept or wouldn’t talk to us because we’re a startup.When I initially contacted Ethic, I was so used to having a bad experience with other marketing firms, I bluntly said “we’re a startup that needs a lot of help with brand recognition, but we’re on a very limited budget. Can you help?”. The owner Jeff said “let’s talk”. We spent the next hour discussing our business operation and different marketing strategies. We then had a follow up call in which Jeff came prepared with a full presentation and spent the afternoon explaining each line item step by step of how to execute our short term marketing goals. He did all this on his own time for nothing in return. We do not have an agreement in place and there's no guarantee of future business when working with a startup.I can't thank Jeff and the Ethic team enough. They will be our “go to” for all our future marketing needs but it's not because of the free time they gave us, but rather their level of expertise. Our company launched service in January 2023 and currently has 400 app downloads. I will give a follow up review in one year to showcase the value of this experience. If you’re looking for a high level marketing company contact Ethic.

We've been working with Ethic for about a year and a half, using various forms of online advertising and strategy. They have been great partners - always quick to respond, thorough in their approach and knowledgeable in the ever changing digital ad space. Their ability to scale their services to fit our needs and budget has been extremely beneficial as well. We highly recommend Ethic to anyone looking for a quality digital partner.

What services do digital strategy agencies in the United States provide?
They help organizations plan, prioritize, and optimize digital initiatives that support long-term growth, operational efficiency, and competitive positioning.
Industry research shows that small businesses most frequently invest in the following digital channels:
Social media: 73%
Website optimization: 73%
Email marketing: 57%
Search engine optimization: 49%
Video marketing: 34%
Content marketing: 32%
Other common services include:
Digital roadmapping and transformation planning
Channel prioritization and investment alignment
KPI definition and measurement frameworks
Customer journey mapping and experience optimization
Marketing technology and data strategy advisory
Approximately 58% of small businesses actively use digital marketing, and nearly all plan to increase investment. Social media continues to receive the largest share of digital budgets, with 63% allocating the majority of spend to social platforms.
How much do these types of agencies typically charge in the United States?
Pricing reflects senior consulting involvement and strategic scope rather than production volume.
Based on current market benchmarks:
Mid-market strategy consultants typically charge $150–$250 per hour.
Senior or enterprise consultants often charge $250–$400+ per hour, especially in New York, San Francisco, Boston, and Chicago.
Common project-based pricing:
Strategy audits or focused roadmaps range from $25,000–$60,000.
Full digital strategy or transformation planning ranges from $60,000–$150,000+.
Ongoing advisory retainers typically range from $10,000–$30,000+ per month.
Deloitte notes that organizations with structured strategic planning reduce wasted technology spend and improve operational efficiency.
What types of companies benefit most from hiring a digital strategy company?
They are most valuable for organizations where digital performance directly affects growth, efficiency, and customer trust, especially in complex or highly competitive environments.
Common client profiles include:
Startups: Over 70% of customer interactions involve digital touchpoints, making digital strategy critical for market entry, fundraising, and early growth.
Small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs): Only 19% of small businesses currently work with a digital marketing or strategy agency, despite widespread reliance on digital channels.
Enterprise organizations: More than 90% of enterprise leaders consider digital transformation essential, driving demand for structured digital strategy and governance.
Retail and B2B eCommerce companies: Retail and healthcare each account for approximately 17% of digital advertising adoption, while pharmaceuticals represent 11%.
Healthcare providers:74% of patients report improved experiences through virtual visits, increasing the importance of a digital engagement strategy.
SaaS and technology companies:98% of consumers consider online reviews essential when making purchase decisions, reinforcing the role of digital trust and advocacy strategy.
Finance and banking firms: Online search is the starting point for 90% of loan and mortgage consumers, 85% of check-cashing users, 76% of tax preparation clients, and 72% of accounting service buyers.
How long does it take to see results from a digital strategy engagement?
Strategic digital planning impacts performance in phases rather than instantly. Realistic timelines based on industry observations are:
3 months to see initial engagement signals such as traffic increases, early awareness, or setup completion.
3 to 6 months for measurable improvements once execution aligns with strategy.
12 months or more for compounded ROI from broader transformation initiatives, including technology adoption, process integration, and governance.
This type of planning provides early directional insights before full execution results appear. Short-term wins often show in traffic or engagement, while long-term ROI emerges as campaigns compound and strategic adjustments are made over several months.
