      I truly value Hawke Media as a partner agency which has been working with our brand for the last 8 months. Our designated account manager Taylor Holt always goes an extra mile. She is not only an expert in her field, but she truly shows a passion for what she does and sincerely cares about a success of our brand. Also, it has been a pleasure to work with Cynthia Soowal, who supports us whenever it is needed. Thank you, Hawke Media team, for helping us every step of the way of growing our brand.

      Ethan Prochnik (Wolf)'s Review Sourced from Google

      If you’re on the fence about partnering with Hawke Media, let me help nudge you over the edge. As the CEO of Kinshe Yoga—a startup brand launching innovative yoga products —I was initially skeptical about working with Hawke. With clients like Eddie Bauer, Red Bull, and Crocs, I worried we’d be too small to get their full attention.But from our very first calls, LeDoux, one of Hawke’s top executives, patiently walk us through exactly how their team could help us unlock our potential. He assured us we wouldn’t be an after thought—and proved it by negotiating a pricing plan that matched what much smaller agencies were offering for the same services.Next, we were introduced to Wakimba, Hawke’s senior media analyst. He didn’t just give generic advice from a boiler plate deck —he spent hours brainstorming and followed up with a custom strategy deck that demonstrated his deep understanding of our brand and our goals.The following week, we met with Cynthia and Sarah, Hawke’s resident social media experts. They conducted a thorough audit of our Instagram, Facebook, etc. -and then delivered a beautifully designed, 20-page custom deck packed with actionable insights—everything from color palettes and design to messaging and strategy, all illustrated with visual examples that spoke directly to our brand.Our on-boarding, wrapped up with Savannah, Hawke’s content strategist, who delivered a molecular-level analysis of our e-commerce store and writing tone. She provided yet another bespoke deck and a detailed action plan covering everything from brand storytelling and SEO to refining our value propositions. Her tagline suggestions and storytelling tweaks were next-level. In my former life I was an Emmy award-winning writer/ creator, and I honestly wish I’d known in the day —as a fixture in my writers room.Final note: Across the board, the Hawke team was smart, engaging, and fun to work with.

      We’re running a real estate brokerage out of NYC. Had a tough time with marketing agencies in the past, but when Arlen came in with his team IOI Solutions… not only did they underpromise and over-deliver on marketing targets, but their design department is the best.We attribute most of our referrals to great our website and marketing materials look. Clear messaging, unique design, and great copywriting. We look 10X better than our competitors. Their marketing is specialized on search and they do a great job getting quality leads.They have systems for their marketing and design process to keep everything consistent - this is unlike anyone we have used before. We have a dashboard to see our requests, work completed, and progress reports.Communication has been phenomenal. We highly recommend IOI Solutions. ⭐️

      I hired SpLAshPR Agency for all my publicity needs when my latest music album was a contender at the Grammy® Awards. Claire Arnaud-Aubour took the project under her wing. Her publicity strategy and communication was stellar. In addition of securing key magazine articles for the release of my Music Album as well as TV interviews, her agency and staff went so much farther by also helping me producing a Red Carpet Album Release event with 100+ VIP guests at a prestigious Art Gallery in Santa Monica, CA. Publicity, invitations and guests management, securing sponsors, SpLAsh PR not only handled it all but went above and beyond. Claire perfectly understood my vision as an artist and for the project. I highly recommend SpLAsh PR for all your publicity needs.

      Matthew Haviland's Review Sourced from Google

      As a full-time real estate professional with over 20 years in the industry, I had high hopes when signing on with Ylopo. Unfortunately, my experience has been overwhelmingly negative, and I cannot in good conscience recommend their services to other agents or teams.There were two major issues:1. The AI Texting Platform Hurt My Business:Ylopo made changes to their AI texting policy without properly notifying users or offering sufficient control. As a result, messages were sent to my personal database in ways that came off as spammy and intrusive. Several contacts I’ve nurtured over years asked me to never contact them again. These were real potential clients whose trust I had earned—and it was quickly lost because of Ylopo’s system.2. Google Local Services Program Was a Total Miss:We enrolled in Ylopo’s Google Local Services program with the expectation of a steady flow of high-quality leads. After months of ongoing adjustments and support calls, the results were extremely underwhelming. We received very few leads, and not a single one turned into an actual buyer or seller. It was a drain on both our time and marketing budget.Lack of Accountability and Inflexibility:After explaining these issues and the damage done, I requested a reduction of the 90-day cancellation policy to 30 days. Ylopo declined, despite the clear evidence that their own platform caused problems for my business. Instead of owning the impact, they stuck to rigid contract terms—even though the service is technically month-to-month.In short, Ylopo overpromised and underdelivered. I signed up to grow my business and ended up spending more time doing damage control than generating results. I rarely leave negative reviews, but other real estate professionals deserve to know what they’re walking into.If you're considering Ylopo, proceed with caution.

      I cannot recommend this web design company enough. Their team, particularly Rohit and Vikas, have been nothing short of exceptional. They were prompt in addressing my website issues and went above and beyond to ensure everything was addressed. Their level of customer service as they are always available to provide updates and checks. Thanks to them, my website is now back up and running. Their excellent service truly deserves a five-star rating!
