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.

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.

One of my friend recommended this place to eat out and I love it very much. I have no concern , food is very delicious, the workers are really great, people are diverse, and most of it all the food portion is really great for its price. Let’s just say ever since I tried it for it the first time I became a loyal customer.
Sometime they are busy so seating will take a while but it’s worth the wait. When it’s not busy there seating is really fast. Overall the customer service is really great! I think everyone should try this place once in their lifetime!!

We have the #8 Thai flavor and #12 Seafood Lobster hot soups. The food and soup were excellent, you can select the level of spices, add-on extra ingredients with extra charges, and prices are fairly. Perfect place to dine-in on cooler or cold winter days.

The team at Tegan is the best I’ve worked with in the industry. They provide professional, cutting edge ideas and are passionate about what they do. From design to development, my client's website was flawlessly executed. They recently moved their offices from Plano to Addison which added to the drive during face-to-face meetings but the employees of Tegan have always been flexible regarding scheduling meetings, calls, and video conferences.
