Web Design Review from Melnard Rio
I was tasked with revamping the website and communications strategy for one of our non-profit clients to boost their visibility and drive more foot traffic to their brick-and-mortar location. With our client operating on a tight budget, finding effective yet affordable solutions was paramount. Wilson stepped in and provided invaluable consultation. He crafted a creative and innovative game plan that our client could easily implement. Not only did it deliver the desired results, but it also helped slash overhead costs significantly. Wilson's expertise and out-of-the-box thinking were instrumental in achieving our goals. We're thrilled with the outcome and will undoubtedly enlist Wilson's services for our upcoming projects. Highly recommended!

I joined a non-profit board to help rebuild after declining membership rates since Covid. One of the largest factors was a redesign of our website which has expertly done by CIS Agency. We've seen an increase in membership and participation by 50%. A large contributing factor was our amazing new website and being able to accurately communicate information in a timely manner. We're very grateful to the CIS Agency for their amazing work and contribution in restoring our non profit back to pre-Covid participation rates.

A Superior Alternative to Hibu in Grand Rapids!We made the switch to CIS Agency after using Hibu for many years, and it’s truly been the best decision we’ve made for our business. From the start, their team has been responsive, professional, and proactive in managing our website and making timely edits whenever needed.Based near our shop in Grand Rapids, MI, CIS Agency is an excellent local partner if you're looking for a reliable web design and digital marketing company. They've also taken over our graphic design, google ads, facebook, etc helping us with branding and visuals for our shop—and we’ve already seen a noticeable increase in leads that have converted into actual accounts.If you're a business owner in West Michigan looking for a dependable, results-driven marketing agency, I highly recommend giving CIS Agency a try. We've been using their services for over 10 years now.

# Big Fish PR Review**Holy crap, where do I even start with Big Fish PR.**As VP of Her ALS Story, I’ve been around the block with agencies, and let me tell you - what Big Fish did for our Warrior Weekend was absolutely unreal.These people are MAGIC. Like, I’m not even exaggerating. When we first talked to them about the Warrior Weekend, I could tell they immediately understood what we were trying to do. This isn’t just another event for us - it’s about bringing together warriors in the ALS fight and giving them a space to connect, heal, and find strength. And Big Fish? They got that from minute one.The media coverage they landed for us was insane. We’re talking major publications - the kind of outlets that usually don’t give smaller nonprofits the time of day. But somehow Big Fish made our story irresistible to them. Every pitch felt strategic, every story placement felt meaningful. They didn’t just spray and pray with press releases. They crafted our narrative in a way that made editors actually care.What blew me away was how they made our Warrior Weekend feel like THE event everyone needed to know about. The buzz they created wasn’t just noise - it was the right kind of attention that brought in the right people and resources.But here’s the thing that really got me: they never made it feel transactional. Every conversation, every strategy session, every brainstorm felt like we were working with people who genuinely gave a damn about our mission. They celebrated our wins like they were their own family’s wins.If you’re looking for a PR team that will fight for your cause like it’s their own, call Big Fish immediately. Don’t walk, RUN. These people are the real deal, and I can’t recommend them highly enough.**Trust me on this one.

I’ve been building brands for 15 years and have worked with many PR partners, but none have impressed me like BIG FISH. Their strategy, communication, processes, and talent for building relationships with publishers and media is unmatched. In just a few months, they landed major placements for Adoorn in Architectural Digest, Oprah, and Real Simple. Highly recommend!

Working with Local Visibility has been such a great experience. Everyone on the team has been so nice, patient and professional to work with. For a very non technical person like myself, Creating a website seemed like such a daunting process, I didn’t know where to begin. But the team did a fantastic job stringing together a bunch of bits and pieces of ideas and thoughts into a beautiful, functional and quality website that gives us a crisp and modern web presence. They did an amazing job and I couldn’t be happier!

Working with Dabaran has been great for our company thus far. Within the first 3 months, we've already seen an uptick in qualified leads coming in - which is relatively rare when working with SEO.

After working with countless agencies and seeing little to no progress, we finally found our home with Dabaran. From day one, their team has been a breath of fresh air. Their exceptional communication ensures we're always in the loop, and the detailed reporting provides complete transparency on every aspect of our campaigns.The results? Simply put, tremendous. We've seen our metrics trend upward since the beginning, and the growth just keeps building. Dabaran's expertise and dedication have made a measurable & significant difference for our business. If you're tired of unfruitful partnerships, give Dabaran a chance—you won't regret it!Highly recommend! Danielle, Asad and team are well-worth the time and investment 🚀

The team at Dabaran have been very easy and professional to work with. When we started with them a few months ago, we were ranked 71st in search engines. Within that time, we've moved up to #8 and have begun getting legitimate business sales from people we do not know, which was always the goal when we started with this SEO process.We highly recommend them to everyone...except our competitors!
Reviews verified by DesignRush and sourced from the agency's profile View All Reviews
Reputation management directly affects revenue and trust.
Reputation management typically includes:
Monitoring brand sentiment across search engines, review platforms, social media, news sites, and online communities
Managing reviews and ratings, including responding to feedback and encouraging positive customer experiences
Improving search visibility by promoting favorable content and addressing harmful or misleading material when appropriate
Crisis and issue response to contain negative press, complaints, or reputational risks
Content and presence management to ensure brand-owned channels accurately reflect company values and messaging
In the U.S., 67.7% of consumers say online reviews influence purchasing decisions, and buyers read an average of 9-10 reviews before making a purchase. Poor brand perception can cost businesses up to 14.7% in lost revenue, while positive reviews increase trust and conversions.
How much do reputation management companies in the USA charge?
Reputation management pricing in the United States ranges between $100 and $500 per hour or $5,000 and $20,000 per engagement. Final billing will depend on agency scope, engagement size, and time commitment. Here’s what you can expect:
Average hourly rate: According to DesignRush data, the top reputation management firms charge an average of $107 per hour.
Lower minimum budgets: 19.5% of agencies accept projects with a minimum budget under $1,000.
Higher minimum budgets: Only 0.7% of agencies require a minimum project budget of $50,000, showing that fewer agencies operate at that entry point.
Typical engagement cost: Online reputation management solutions generally range from $5,000 to $20,000.
Time commitment: These engagements typically involve 50-200 hours spread over several months, depending on the scope and complexity.
Can a business rebuild trust after reputational damage?
Yes, they can absolutely rebuild trust after reputational damage.
Research shows that 90% of consumers trust brands more when they openly acknowledge mistakes, and thoughtful responses to negative reviews lead 33% of customers to update or remove critical feedback.
Companies with mature reputation management strategies recover up to three times faster, often within weeks rather than months, by addressing issues head-on instead of staying silent.
If you’re in this situation, a reputation management agency will help you do the following:
Assess the impact by tracking sentiment, reviews, customer churn, and revenue signals.
Align internal stakeholders so leadership, legal, PR, and support teams share one consistent response.
Respond transparently with explicit acknowledgment and visible corrective actions.
Engage directly with feedback to demonstrate accountability and regain confidence.
Reinforce positive trustsignals by amplifying verified reviews, testimonials, and earned coverage.
What’s the difference between brand management and reputation management?
Brand management and reputation management influence how a company is perceived, but they serve different purposes. Specifically, brand management focuses on the image a company intentionally creates.Reputation management, on the other hand, reflects how a company is actually perceived based on real-world behavior.
Here’s a more detailed breakdown of their differences:
Brand Management
Reputation Management
Brand identity, positioning, and messaging
Visual elements like logos and design systems
Customer experience across marketing channels
Customer reviews and ratings
Employee and leadership actions
Media coverage and public response to issues
How brands handle feedback, complaints, and crises
With 81% of US consumers saying they must trust a brand before buying, both brand management and reputation management play a crucial role in revenue and growth.
Is reputation management different for small businesses vs. large enterprises?
Yes, reputation management looks very different for small businesses and large enterprises, mainly due to visibility and risk exposure.
For small businesses, it’s highly immediate and localized. Most customers discover small brands through search results and reviews, and 90% of consumers say positive reviews influence their buying decisions.
With fewer brand touchpoints and limited margin for error, even a small number of negative reviews can directly impact sales. As a result, these companies have their reputation management provider focus on:
Monitoring and responding to reviews
Local search visibility and credibility
Consistent customer experience and feedback
As for large enterprises, reputation management operates at a broader level. It typically involves:
Cross-functional coordination across PR, legal, HR, and leadership
Ongoing media and sentiment monitoring
Governance, leadership visibility, and crisis preparedness
