Branding Review from Susana de la Rionda
A legal cannabis company hired SOCIAL HOUSE, INC. to design collateral for in-store promotions. They created terpene wheel display boxes, an interactive bingo experience, gift boxes, and in-store tables.
The team was responsive, collaborative, and communicative throughout the process. They prioritized transparency and accountability, and their talent and imagination stood out.

TAMMIE NIELSEN's Review Sourced from Google
I have worked with other website companies but none have been so easy to work with! Their onboarding process was easy to understand and they were always willing to answer questions and walk/talk me through things I didn't understand. I am not a website person, so even the language sometimes had to be explained to me. They were very professional and I believe we received great value for our dollars. The real test is would I use them again? ABSOLUTELY!

The whole team at 1 At Bat Media has been an absolute breeze to work with! They helped us bring our struggling and outdated website into 2020 & now they are helping us bring visitors to it. Our phones have been way more busy with inquires, even during these uncertain times with COVID. I highly recommend working with 1 At Bat Media for all your digital marketing needs!

Michael Hurst's Review Sourced from Google
1 At Bat Media actually searched our company out and came to us with ideas on improving our website. A revamp of the site was long overdue and we were coincidentally already in search of someone we could trust to perform the work for us. They listened to our goals for the site and offered recommendations and delivered an end product on time and exceeding all our expectations. They never pressured us into any 'extras' or oversold anything. They listened to what we wanted and delivered exactly that. I would recommend 1 At Bat Media for any of your website or digital media solutions.

If you are looking for a professional marketing person, with extensive professional knowledge, and who you will really enjoy working with, we highly recommend contacting Shai. Beyond the enormous promotion that Shai brought to our business, on every platform Google, Facebook and Instagram, Shai also took the time and knowledge to guide us in other areas related to our business and which contributed to the promotion of our business no less.
If I want to describe the communication with Shai in a few words, then before meeting with Shai I feel as if I am meeting with the owner of my business.
Thank you very much,

Eleanor Davis's Review Sourced from Google
If I could give more stars, I would. I recently worked with Corduroy on two separate documentary-style video series. Both projects involved challenging and complicated content, quick timelines, and a lot of creative problem solving. Corduroy blew me out of the water with their energy, enthusiasm, creativity, and their willingness to educate themselves and become deeply familiar with our programming and the subject matter before the process had even begun. Not only that, but they were incredible listeners - always genuinely asking for and receiving feedback, and looking to me and my team as the experts on the subject matter of the videos. Working with Corduroy felt like a real creative partnership in a way that it hasn't always with other video production companies I've worked with. And, to top it all off, they are wildly talented. The videos they produced for us are incredibly beautiful - the footage is gorgeous, they hit all the perfect key points, and the videos are educational and effective at teaching as much as they are inspiring and moving. The team is a joy to work with and talented to boot - can't recommend them highly enough!

Tiffani Chan's Review Sourced from Google
From the proposal stage to the final video, everyone at Corduroy were great to work with. We couldn't trust them more with producing a video that would evoke the emotions and motivation from our audience to learn more about our outreach programs. Brandon, our Producer and Director was fantastic throughout the project and we are so pleased with how he and his team transformed the untold stories of our participants into a moving and inspirational video. We definitely hope there will be more opportunities to collaborate again in the near future!

Doug C's Review Sourced from Google
I have worked in outreach efforts as a sort of spokesperson, with other firms and also R&R Partners and I have to say all the firms have been good and professional. R&R not only excelled there, but they were very helpful and encouraging when I was nervous.
I am not a professional by a long shot, but they made me feel like one during the shoots. I have seen their work for the fundraising promotions they have done for many years for the hospital and clinic where I am a patient. Each year they keep raising the bar and I am honored that I got to work with them.
The people I worked with have been with the firm for many years. In this day and age of technology, that is not common.
Thank you for your work and how you continue to drive the fundraising for the ALS clinic and Barrow as a whole.

Jade Carr's Review Sourced from Google
I've worked with Outsauce Media on two shoots so far - one for a personal training photoshoot and another for a dance workshop in a studio - and both experiences have been excellent.
He is not only professional but easy to work with, but also genuinely creative. He took time to understand my vision, but what really stood out was how he went above and beyond by suggesting shots I hadn't even thought of. Those extras ended up giving me new content, which was a huge bonus for my brand.
The final photos and video looked incredible and really helped me elevate how I present my business. I'll definitely continue working with Outsauce Media for all my future content needs. Highly recommend!

Trent is an absolute professional from start to finish. His creative direction is second to none, and he made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. Before the shoot, Trent set up a detailed Pinterest board to ensure we were completely aligned on the vision, which made the day run effortlessly and allowed us to execute everything exactly as planned.
The turnaround time for the photos was incredibly quick, and the results were phenomenal—beyond what I could have hoped for!
I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to Trent again for future projects. If you’re looking for someone who’s creative, reliable, and genuinely passionate about what they do, Trent is your guy. Highly recommend!

7 Frequently Asked Questions About Media Buying Agencies
Which platforms do media buying companies manage?
Media buying firms manage major advertising platforms where your audience spends time, both online and offline. They handle campaigns across multiple channels to reach people at different stages of the buying journey and to improve overall results.
Paid search and social Agencies run ads on platforms like Google, Bing, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and TikTok. These channels drive targeted traffic, leads, and sales based on user intent and behavior.
Programmatic and display They use demand-side platforms to buy ad space automatically across websites and apps. This includes banner, video, and native ads, all optimized in real time.
CTV and OTT (Streaming ads) A media buying firm places ads on streaming services and smart TVs to help brands reach audiences who no longer watch traditional cable.
Traditional media They still buy ad space on TV, radio, print, and billboards when it makes sense for reach and brand awareness.
Audio and Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) Ads on Spotify, podcasts, and digital billboards in public spaces like malls, highways, and transit stations.
What is the difference between media planning and media buying agencies?
Media planning agencies decide where, when, and how to advertise. Media buying firms execute that plan by purchasing ad space and managing placements.
Planning sets the strategy; buying delivers the ads.

How do media buyers choose the right channels for a campaign?
Media buyers choose channels by matching audience behavior, campaign goals, and budget to the platforms most likely to deliver results. They rely on data to see where people spend time and shift spend toward what performs best.
Business size
How agencies choose advertising channels
Typical channels
Small business
Focus on low-cost, high-return channels with quick feedback. Prioritize direct response and easy tracking.
Google Ads (search), Facebook/Instagram, TikTok
Mid-size business
Balance growth and efficiency. Test multiple channels and scale what works. Combine awareness and conversions.
Paid social, Google Ads, YouTube, programmatic display
Large business
Maximize reach and brand impact while maintaining performance. Use a full-funnel strategy across many channels.
Core logic stays the same at every level: reach the right audience, support the campaign goal, and invest where return is strongest.
How much do media buying companies' services cost?
Media buying firms usually charge a percentage of your ad spend, typically between 3% and 10%, or a flat monthly fee depending on campaign size. Smaller budgets pay higher percentages, while large budgets get lower rates.
Typical pricing models:
Percentage of ad spend: 5% to 10% for most campaigns
Flat monthly fee: $2,000 to $15,000+, depending on scope
Project-based (strategy/planning): $1,500 to $50,000+
Setup fees: 2% to 3% of initial spend (one-time)
How pricing scales:

$100,000-$1M

Costs depend on your ad budget, the number of channels, campaign complexity, targeting depth, creative needs, and the amount of ongoing management and reporting required.
You are not just paying for ad placement. You're paying for strategy, execution, optimization, and performance improvement.
Is there a minimum spend?
There is no strict minimum spend, but in practice, you need at least $1,000 to $3,000 per month to generate enough data for optimization and results. Very small budgets, like $5 per day, rarely perform because they don’t generate enough clicks or conversions.
For better performance, campaigns should aim for at least 30 conversions per month, which often requires higher spend depending on your cost per click.
More advanced channels like programmatic or CTV usually require $5,000 to $10,000+ to run effectively, and many agencies set similar minimums to ensure campaigns are worth managing.
How long does it take to see results from media buying?
You can see initial results in2 to 4 weeks, but most campaigns need 2 to 3 months to stabilize and deliver consistent ROI.
Early signals like impressions, clicks, and some leads often appear within days to a few weeks, especially on paid social and search. However, platforms need time to learn and optimize, so stronger and more reliable results usually take8 to 12 weeks.
For more complex campaigns, such as B2B or high-ticket offers, meaningful revenue impact can take 3 to 6 months due to longer sales cycles and ongoing optimization.
