Creative Services Review from Andy Blevins
Social Driver provided branding services for the merger of two national LGBTQ military & veteran nonprofits. They incorporated insight from two boards to produce a name, logo, and branding package. The deliverables have all earned high praise, with the logo and overall brand being versatile and simple. All deadlines were met and communication was a highlight. Their smooth and streamlined process helped us pull everything under the same umbrella to have a united front. I highly recommend them!
Social Media Marketing Review from David Sallee
Social Driver provided social media marketing workshops and advice for the departments on campus which were involved in social media marketing, such as alumni, athletics, and advancement.Their staff provided in-depth instruction for all appropriate staff and follow-up conversations to support their work.Social Driver has very strong technical skills. They also demonstrate a very high level of insight for applications of social media that go far beyond technical insights into human insights.
Web Design Review from Eileen Kessler
My company worked with Social Driver to redesign the UX/IA for a national scientific organization's extensive research resource that was moving from print to online. There was a tight deadline to conceptualize a new user experience and create a framework that our client could review iteratively. Our client was very pleased with the results of the new interactive framework and design. This design was used for the build of the web site which began immediately upon completion. Highly recommend!

We are very pleased with the Umbraco website developed by Marcel Digital. Their Umbraco Master's transparent development process and attention to detail resulted in a beautiful website that has made a tremendous impact on our digital marketing efforts. They continue to be a valued partner and one we recommend without hesitation.
Digital Marketing Review from Megan Patterson
Marcel has been a great a partner in our journey into the 21st century. They helped us to build a beautiful and functional Umbraco website, and have been there to help support us anytime a crisis arises. The increase in quality of leads was immediately recognized and anytime there was a change in lead flow our Marcel team was immediately there to offer suggestions and help us stay updated. We truly view Marcel as an extension of our team.

Digital Advertising Review from Jessica Donoghue
Path is an excellent digital agency partner in a multitude of ways. Not only are they a nice group of people to work with, due to their search background all the work they do whether social campaigns, social influencer programs, search, digital advertising, whatever, they are results orientated & data driven. They are methodical and detailed. I trust my money with them. It has been a pleasure working with them.
Digital Marketing Review from Justin J. Hill
In working with Path Interactive for the past few years I have always found their firm to be on the cutting edge of emerging digital marketing trends and always providing valuable insight and planning of our PPC and SEO efforts.
Brand Strategy Review from Eric Spoley
My experiences with PATH have been excellent. They are one of the most responsive agencies I have ever worked with and they are very clear about their insights even if it does not put them in the best of light. Something I cannot say about all the agencies that I have worked with. Projects were always completed inside the budget and on schedule and they always did everything they could to support the brand.

Web Design Review from Christopher Calarco, D.C.
Our company had an excellent experience partnering with Jeremy and the 97 Switch team on our website and SEO. The initial build was on a tight timeline that was kept, and after the sites completion we saw a significant increase in new business coming our way. More medical professionals learned about us and wanted to join our network, which was an amazing bonus of working with 97 Switch. We've committed to work with 97 Switch for the next several years given they have been crucial in guiding our plan for growth.
Web Design Review from Justyna Chrupek
We hired them to build a new website. The website was quickly completed in just a couple months, and weve seen markedly positive results from 97 Switchs efforts. It's a new marketing feature that we use on a daily basis. The improved quality has facilitated our communication and made things much easier. Weve received great feedback from our vendors, investors, and customers who want to view our properties. Internally, our staff is excited to see what's going on in our company. We are definitely proud of our new platform. Our executive team is excited to be featured on the new website; previously, they didn't even want their picture shown. Before this redesign, we were almost embarrassed to send out the link. Now, we can comfortably share it with our investors, potential investors, and landlords so they keep track of our updates on a monthly basis. We love how this site presents the face of our company.
Web Design Review from Adam Greenberg
We've seen tremendous growth and exposure. The website has generated a number of new leads and weve received tons of cold calls from potential clients. This is thanks to 97 Switchs efforts to increase our digital exposure. We communicate primarily via phone and email and theyre highly responsive. I receive a response to emails within minutes and they get back to me within half an hour if I request a phone call. They're able to conduct face-to-face interactions in order to truly understand the goals and business culture of their clients. This allowed them to create a design that accurately represented our brand. I've had nothing but positive experiences with 97 Switch and Id recommend them to anyone.

Content Marketing Review from Mckenzie Ycmat
I've worked with Siege since 2016, and there's a reason I've brought them with me to nearly every company I've joined since. I've partnered with a lot of agencies over the years, but Siege consistently stands out because they don't just execute SEO tactics, they become an extension of your team. They take the time to understand your business, collaborate across marketing, and build content strategies that actually drive measurable results. One of the things I appreciate most is how proactive they are. They bring ideas to the table, back recommendations with data, and genuinely care about long-term growth rather than chasing quick wins. The impact they've had on my career has been significant. At multiple companies, their work has helped us grow organic traffic, strengthen our content strategy, and prove the value of marketing initiatives. They're one of the few partners I've trusted enough to advocate for repeatedly, including making sure I could continue working with them after changing jobs. The fact that I've spent nearly a decade recommending Siege internally says everything. They're one of those rare agencies that consistently exceed expectations, and I'd recommend them without hesitation to any marketing team looking for a true strategic partner.

We've worked with Thunder::tech to replace our cooperative's website. They have delivered as promised and more than expected in a professional and timely manner. Their team members are creative, technical and professional experts. We're looking forward to working on a second phase of the project with them starting soon. T::T is big enough a agency that they have multiple experts on the team with overlapping knowledge to get the job done, but not such a huge company where one might get lost as a client. As a web and digital media pro with 20+ years of experience, I recommend Thunder::tech. - JF

Our organization, FirstCall Labor Solutions, launched a project to redevelop our website which required us to interview a number of firms to help us. Through this process, Daniel at Windy City Web Solutions stood out and a good blend of visionary and pragmatist.WCWS was able to take our brand identity, business model, and mission statement and translate that into a well thought out, user friendly website. Their process was iterative and allowed for changes right up until we went live.When the project came to a point where a creative art director was necessary, WCWS was able to refer a firm that was effective and efficient.I would recommend WCWS.

I worked with Daniel to create a new website for a nonprofit client. Daniel created a stunning website that is super accessible and straightforward for our users. His knowledge of web design and best practices, along with his creative techniques, made all the difference in developing our new site. In addition, his ongoing support and security package is super helpful for our team.
Audrey Brill's Review Sourced from Google
Daniel was very communicative throughout the entire process and made everything easy to understand. He was patient and flexible when we changed our minds or requested revisions. Whenever something couldn’t be done exactly as we asked, he took the time to clearly explain why and worked with us to find the best possible solution. In the end, he helped create a website that looks great and that we’re really happy with.
