Software Development Review from Jake Mackay
For quite a long time we took orders by e-mail or personally from customers. It took a lot of time, as we either made layouts by hand or printed them according to the vague requirements of clients. All these difficulties have pushed us to take a step towards the digital transformation of our business. The team of Five Jars has developed a frontend and backend for our web tool to create print layouts. The team is not afraid to take on difficult tasks!
Responsive Review from Anthony North
I was looking for companies that had experience with large educational platforms. There are some really big players in the eLearning market in Five Jars' portfolio, so I trusted their development experience. After all our platform has become more attractive to users. Over the past year, we have noticed a significant increase in daily visits, so much so that we even had to change hosting. Five Jars helped us with that too!
Small Business Review from Colin Knox
I'm satisfied with the MVP we've done with the Five Jars team. I am currently looking for an investor for this project. I love working with professionals when I don't have to dive into a whole area that I don't know. Working with the Five Jars was a real partnership where the other side fulfilled their obligations without my constant checks.

Video Production Review from Bryce McPartland
We were referred to colormatics by our ad people at krem. We compared pricing and products of colormatics against a number of industry-specific marketing providers. Colormatics had the strongest portfolio and, surprisingly, offered exceptional pricing.Colormatics laid out a full shoot schedule which was pre-approved. They arrived on scene early one morning and traveled across central Washington to four separate locations to make an exceptionally tight yet comprehensive video about our firm. We began around 8 am and wrapped about 430 pm.Colormatics maintained excellent lines of communication including via email, text, cell and the video editing platform that they utilized. I always felt "in the loop" with them.
Video Production Review from Allison Grunthaner Gibicsar
Colormatics has been an outstanding partner in creating a huge amount of assets needed for our biggest product launch of 2023. This includes but is not limited to: social media videos, product videos, mattress cutaway visualizations, YouTube bumpers, edited b-roll, and more. The whole team is always willing to hop on the phone or quickly answer an email, with fast asset delivery and willingness to bring forth suggestions/solves outside of their scope.
Video Production Review from Ryan Throckmorton
Our team developed the idea of showcasing individuals who are making a positive impact online within their own communities. When we shared the concept with Colormatics, they immediately explored creative ways to bring it to life visually. They transformed our vision into a compelling visual narrative.The final piece blended live-action footage with motion graphics. We conducted interviews and also wanted to highlight the social media activity of these community members. Their profiles were used as a storytelling device, appearing almost like flashbacks, but animated in a way that made the content feel like it was unfolding in real time.We’re now experimenting with turning interview voiceovers into animated illustrations. We believe these could resonate even more on social platforms. The plan was to compare performance between the two video styles, and we’re looking forward to testing them soon.

Web Design Review from Debra Maldonado
We loved working with Connective. Everyone on their team was great. We love the end product of our new website. We highly recommend them for web design.
Web Design Review from Marc Mazza
I don't know how many web design firms I've engaged with in the past years before meeting Rodney. I think most of these Firms generally only cared about their perspective on what is right, nice, or effective for web design without including my opinions and ideas of what I wanted in my website. And SEO? It was literally non existent with the other firms. Connective Web Design is the complete package. They not only built a very effective and extremely high ranking website... they designed it taking into consideration my ideas and input. Concerning SEO... I don't think I've ever met anyone who knows more about this topic than Rodney. I mean honestly... It's amazing. The information connective web design has shared with me has helped my company grow by 300%. And It ALL BECAUSE OF THEIR HELP. Connective Web Design is not just made up of one person either... it's a full team effort. Multiple individuals make up the CWD team and I've met all of them virtually. And I have to say, not only are they super knowledgeable they are just the nicest and most patient individuals I've ever met.
Web Design Review from Bret Royle
As an attorney that runs a small but busy law practice I've dealt with dozens of web designers and SEO "professionals" who all just tried to take my money. Recognizing that the web development industry was wrought with consumer fraud, I dedicated myself to learning the basics of web design and SEO in an attempt to build and develop my own website and handle my own SEO. As I was learning I found myself on a web developer forum and was reading responsses in the forum from Rodney with Connective Web Design. His knowledge on various web and SEO topics seemed superior when compared to other web professionals posting and discussing. I found his contact info, and shot him an email asking if he would be willing to look at a few things for me. Rodney immediately responded and we set a telephonic meeting to discuss the status of my project. Long story short, I quickly realized that I was in over my head in building my own site and more importantly, I realized that I had found someone who I could actually trust to build out my website and manage my SEO. Rodney, Maria and the team at Connective Web Design far exceeded my expectations. They were professional, prompt in delivery, fair in price and honest in their business dealings. The team worked tirelessly to deliver and amazing product and I couldn't be happier. Because I do not live in Los Angles we collaborated remotely using various tools, emails and video messages all at the direction of Connective Web Design. In the end, my faith was restored in an industry that has so many companies selling snake oil. I have and will continue to refer others to Connective Web Design. To Rodney, Maria, Tim and the rest of the team -- thank you a million times over.

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.

Dessi Nikolova's Review Sourced from Google
Attention! - Big scam!After 3 months of communication back and forth ( with multiple people) , I ended up paying almost $5000 for a website that looks like crap.Had to have a new one built since there is no one to take responsibility for the work they have done. After trying for another 2 months to communicate and “ fix” the website, I finally gave up. They needed more, and more money to “ fix” a simple informative site ( that’s all I wanted)… And since I had already invested so much, it was hard to give up and I kept hoping and paying more and more until they drained my account. Being unable to pay someone else, I had no choice but to try building the website myself. I went to Godaddy and did it! Turned out it was so easy to do - multiple choices of templates! I found one that also allows me to take payments and make appointments online. And I paid $179 for it. Beautiful website! Please save your hard earned money and don’t even make attempts to contact these scammers.This, by the way, is the only bad review I ever left for someone and that should tell you a lot.Good luck!

I enjoyed the course and learned a lot from it. The academy is well organised and focused on practical disciplines such as SEO, PPC, Programmatic, Mobile and Display. I particularly enjoyed the bits of psychological research and discussions shared in our sessions. I would definitely recommend to those starting out and have interest in digital marketing. Well done to everyone involved at the course. And a BiG thank you to the entire TIPi team!

We recently moved over to Radiant after struggling to gain enough traction with our previous developers, and the difference has been night and day. The onboarding process was seamless – they uploaded all of our existing tasks straight into their platform, making the transition effortless. Their system makes communication incredibly easy, with tasks and chat all in one place, so nothing ever gets lost.Our account manager has been outstanding – proactive, full of ideas, and always willing to go the extra mile. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and we feel like we finally have a true partner invested in our success. The whole experience with Radiant has been smooth, professional, and genuinely refreshing. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

We’ve been working with Liquid Creativity since launching Arli Homes in 2019, and they’ve played a huge role in shaping who we are as a brand today.From day one, they’ve supported us across brand strategy, identity, website, SEO and marketing. More than that, they genuinely understand our brand and know it inside-out. There’s a level of care and consistency in everything they produce that’s hard to find.As we’ve grown, they’ve also helped bring our sister brands, Lumi by Arli Homes and Nido Homes, to life. Each has its own identity, while still feeling connected to the broader vision.They’re not a set and forget agency - they’re constantly reviewing, refining and evolving our brand alongside us to make sure it stays relevant in a changing market.We see them as an extension of our team, and their partnership has been incredibly valuable!

I started my own business (medical specialist) in 2013 and Sue created a fantastic logo and letterhead to give it a fresh, new look as well as overseeing my profile picture and website. Exactly what I needed and I soon had more patients than I could see! Sadly I had to close in 2024 so you can't see it online anymore.
Megan Grant's Review Sourced from Google
Working with Sue from Liquid Creativity over the past 12 months has given me a completely new foundation for my business. She took the time to really understand my story, my clients and the way my personal money management service works. Through workshops, research and client interviews she pulled everything together into a clear brand blueprint that covers my positioning, values, ideal clients, key messages and tone of voice, something I simply couldn’t have created on my own. Sue also created my new business name, Plentifor, and wrote the core messaging and copy for my new website. I’m happy to be moving away from my old brand and feel the new name and language reflect who I am and the impact my service has on clients much more accurately. She was very patient with me as a solo business owner, guided me through each step, and kept things moving even when I felt overwhelmed by decisions. I now have a strong, strategic brand and website content that I can build on for years to come. If you’re looking for someone who will dig deep, ask the right questions, and help you articulate what makes your business unique, I’d recommend talking to Sue and Liquid Creativity.

Prepare an internal decision maker and development and content capacity to accelerate the onboarding process and ensure implementation of SEO consulting services strategies.
What you need from day one:
According to a study by seoClarity, the top challenges in implementing SEO are a lack of search engine implementation resources (55%) and a lack of development or engineering resources (52.5%).
As such, by having these three items prepared, you prevent most of the SEO roadblocks.
The clearest sign that SEO consulting agency is built around your revenue goals is whether the consultant can explain which of your pages drive leads and sales before they have started working.
An SEO expert who cannot provide a clear answer is selling you packages rather than outcomes. As a result, you may end the year with more published SEO content and tracked keywords, but no measurable lift in qualified leads.
What a revenue-connected proposal looks like:
A revenue-connected proposal includes a prioritization rationale based on your current performance. It should answer: why these pages, why these keywords, why now.
Ask the experts to walk you through the decisions behind their strategies. These four questions also help surface if they have performed pre-engagement analysis on your site:
A discovery call is your lowest-cost opportunity to disqualify the wrong SEO consulting firm before money changes hands. The red flags to watch out for are consultants who lead with rankings, provide no clear process and strategy, and are unable to pivot.
The difference between a proposal built for you and one built for anyone shows up in the details: specific audit findings, named owners for every deliverable, and clear language about what happens when the engagement ends. If any of the elements below are missing, ask for them in writing before you sign.
| Proposal element | What it should include |
| Pre-engagement audit finding | Specific site and SEO issues, such as keyword targeting gaps and Web Core Vitals health. |
| Defined deliverables with clear ownership | Named team members responsible for each line item. For instance, the client is responsible for content production. |
| Measurement framework and reporting cadence | The specific metrics tracked, items included in the report, and the frequency of the report. |
| IP and data ownership language | The produced content, technical work, data, and account should all belong to you. |
| Exit clause | The notice period, offboarding process, and what happens to ongoing work once the contract is terminated. |
| Defined escalation path | An SEO specialist in a management or leadership position who you can directly contact when you are dissatisfied with the results or the communication of the current team. |
While SEO is a long-term strategy, you should receive a concrete strategy in your first 3 months, initial movement in months 3-6, and revenue-connected SEO before month 12. If nothing has moved by the fourth month, you should start investigating the work of the SEO consulting company.
Here is what you can expect in the first 12 months of your engagement:
| Timeline | What could happen |
| Months 1-3 |
|
| Months 3-6 |
|
| Months 6-12 |

An SEO consulting company offers strategic expertise in a particular field or vertical, such as eCommerce SEO, but relies on your team for execution. Conversely, an SEO agency provides strategy and execution in one package but lacks the specialized depth of a consultant.
Hire SEO consulting services when:
Hire an SEO agency when:
The decision ultimately depends on your scope, accountability, and day-to-day management.
Consider a flat monthly fee for predictable work, and an hourly consulting fee for occasional input rather than day-to-day execution.
The table below compares both models across the decisions that matter most: predictability, risk, and fit.
| Flat monthly retainer | Hourly consulting fee | |
| Pros | Predictable for budgeting and provides a clear deliverable structure | Flexible scope and pricing that adjusts to your actual needs |
| Risks | Scope creep: consultant underdelivers and hides behind the retainer, or the package no longer meets your expanding needs | Difficult to manage, as hours can be consumed by calls and reports rather than high-value work |
| Best for | Businesses with a well-defined, recurring scope of work | Businesses that need occasional expert input rather than ongoing execution |
Another alternative is to start your engagement with the SEO consultant on an hourly fee, when you need a high-level strategy the most. Then shift a monthly retainer for day-to-day management and execution of SEO work.
Most SEO retainers are priced for a narrower scope than buyers assume. The gap between what the proposal covers and what the work requires only becomes visible after the contract is signed. Before you agree to a monthly fee, ask your consultant to confirm in writing whether each of the following is included or billed separately:
Ask questions that pressure-test judgment, not just credentials. SEO consulting companies who have genuinely done this work will answer with specificity. One who hasn't will answer with confidence that falls apart under follow-up.
Here are 8 questions to help evaluate the SEO services company's capabilities:
Rankings and total traffic volume are not business measurements. Any reporting framework built around these two metrics alone shows your activity, not impact. Insist on a dashboard that connects organic search performance directly to revenue outcomes, including the following:
According to FirstPageSage, the average ROI for technical SEO is 117% with break-even at month six, while thought leadership SEO reaches 748% ROI within nine months. These benchmarks are what a properly measured campaign should be able to work toward.
Realistically, you should start seeing initial movement after 3-6 months of implementing the SEO consultant's strategies. By the 6-12-month mark, you should record sustained, measurable results, such as an increase in qualified leads and organic-attributed revenue.
The final timeline of results will depend on:
Below is an estimated timeline on what to expect during your engagement:
Consider switching SEO specialists when there is no measurable improvement within 3-6 months, without clear explanations and action plans on how to resolve the situation. Another signal is when you observe repeated behavioral problems, including a lack of transparency and communication.
Here are some signs that it is time to leave your current SEO engagement:
