PPC Review from Viet Nguyen
We've had a very positive experience working with HK Digital as our paid media partner. As an ecommerce business focused on sustainable growth and performance accountability, we value partners who combine strategic thinking with reliable execution and HK Digital has delivered on both.From the start, the team demonstrated strong organisation, clear communication, and a collaborative mindset. They took the time to understand our business goals, customer acquisition challenges, and revenue targets, then translated those into structured paid media strategies across our core channels.One of the biggest strengths of HK Digital is their ability to balance performance optimisation with long-term growth thinking. Reporting is clear, actionable, and focused on outcomes that matter to the business not just channel metrics. The team is proactive in identifying opportunities, testing new ideas, and refining campaigns based on data.Since working together, paid media has remained a major contributor to our ecommerce revenue, with campaigns consistently driving qualified traffic, supporting customer acquisition, and helping us scale efficiently. Their responsiveness and willingness to adapt quickly to business needs have made them feel like an extension of our internal team rather than an external agency.Compared to other agencies we've worked with, HK Digital stands out for professionalism, reliability, and a genuinely collaborative approach. They are solutions-oriented, dependable, and focused on delivering measurable impact.I would confidently recommend Travis and HK Digital to any ecommerce brand looking for a performance marketing partner that understands both the commercial realities of running a business and the technical execution required to grow it.

Performance Marketing Review from Carol Shih
We've partnered with HK Digital as a performance marketing partner and have referred business back and forth with full confidence. Travis Herndon is extremely knowledgeable, direct, and efficient the kind of partner who doesn't waste time, overpromise, or hide behind buzzwords.His customer service and response time are excellent, communication is clear and matter-of-fact, and most importantly, the results speak for themselves. Travis approaches performance with discipline and accountability, which is exactly what serious brands need.If you're looking for a straightforward, high-integrity performance partner who delivers without the noise, HK Digital is a strong choice.

TEC Direct Media has helped us on several projects, and has been instrumental in helping our agency "learn the ropes" about programmatic and all things digital. We're always learning new things about digital for our clients, and TEC Direct has always been there when we have a question. They have helped us on two projects in 2016, and each of those were successful and those clients will continue with us in 2017. We consider TEC Direct a strategic partner. D. DeFreeuw, President, Force 5

Kirsten AD's Review Sourced from Google
I've enjoyed working with Artisan both on internal projects and being placed with clients through them. While they don't see the same number of roles as some of the bigger companies, they do tend to get jobs with higher pay rates than some of the other staffing agencies - and definitely advocate for the talent when it comes to dealing with clients. I would definitely recommend getting in touch if you're looking for work in a digital/creative role.

Nancy Antol's Review Sourced from Google
I worked for Artisan as a Contract Copywriter for more than three years. The team did an excellent job finding me a contract with an outstanding company. In addition to a great placement, Artisan provided me with very good benefits, including 401K and some paid time off, which is unusual in the industry. I highly recommend Artisan to anyone who is looking for contract work.

erik johnsen's Review Sourced from Google
In a world of agencies that are mostly out for a quick buck, they build relationships on both the client and talent side. It is a refreshing change of pace to see such integrity. They are fair and honest people that I worked with for years. If you are looking for talent, or have a talent, I can not recommend them more.
