    As a content focused marketing studio, our resources are centered on creating successful content for our clients. With a small digital team, we knew we needed outside expertise to help us get the website done right and on time. The team at Online Optimism got to work on day one and we couldn’t be happier. Our site went from a one-page mess to a multi-page centerpiece. 10/10.

    Online Optimism worked with us to completely overhaul our website and marketing materials. This was no small feat considering that our organization oversees three distinct programs and also has a presence of its own. We started with three separate websites, and marketing materials that changed fairly regularly and were not always cohesive. OO helped us unify our brand while still honoring each program’s distinct features and focus.

    Some of the results we've seen since our work with Online Optimism began is a higher level of engagement with our members. The communication with Online Optimism has been fantastic. They have been so responsive to our needs, to our questions, to understanding what it is we are trying to do and accomplish with our website. They've gone above and beyond communicating with us.

    As our business has grown, so have our marketing needs. Online Optimism has been the perfect fit to help us adapt our strategies and expand our online presence. In our most recent 6-month marketing campaign, we had over 48,000 visits to our website, a 143% increase compared to the previous 6 months. 84% of our website traffic came from organic search, and 17 of our blog posts had a #1 ranking on Google, with many appearing in Featured Snippets as well. We are over the moon about our new website!

    Online Optimism checked all of our boxes, and they were a joy to work with — I was so happy that I found them. They were highly transparent. They also understood what I was trying to do; our personalities were a good match. Moreover, their CEO made himself available to me. As he handed me off to the team, he made me feel confident that I could easily call him and expect a response if I needed something. That was how we started the partnership.

    They created Instagram content and stories, pictures, and animations. They also produced content for Facebook. While Instagram and Facebook were our primary channels, the team also created content for Twitter. The engagement feels more like a true partnership than a working relationship.

    If I were telling someone about Online Optimism, I think that they're proficient in their communication but also in their ideation. Not only did they listen, but they understood exactly what we needed even when sometimes, we didn't understand what we needed. They have a way of getting through to the core of what you want to do and how it will translate digitally!

    They went above and beyond and have met all of our needs. Their team was attentive and quick to respond to any questions. They were prepared during meetings and quickly sent follow-ups, and did not hesitate to communicate any challenges they were facing. Working with them felt very collaborative and straightforward. We were very happy to have direct communication with the team members that worked on our project and never had to go through an account manager or someone unfamiliar with our project

    Their CEO was very receptive, and he seemed smart and dedicated — he had a team of people that all seemed great. They also had experience working with doctors and other medical practices, so I decided to work with them. I feel like they’re my partners and are part of my team.

    Online Optimism found that our previous vendor only did Google Ads and didn’t work on our SEO performance. Online Optimism then started implementing improvements to the entire website. They hosted our site and added new content on all its pages. We meet every two weeks to keep tweaking our platform. Additionally, they’ve taken over our PPC campaigns. I looked around for companies doing SEO. Whenever I mentioned Online Optimism, I always heard positive responses!

    LaNasa Realty Inc has been around for a long time in the New Orleans area. I reached out to Online Optimism to update my website and tell the story of my family history in the New Orleans area and how I have been involved in this history as a Real Estate Broker early on in my career. I needed a web site to show that LaNasa Realty does all aspects of Real Estate from Commercial Sales and Leasing to Residential Sales, and Rentals. Short term rentals have become very popular in New Orleans.
