Web Design Review from Celyn Matienzo
Working with the Buzzworthy team on a website design and development project has been a fantastic experience with the expertise and creativity they bring to the table. Anyone can design and develop a basic, functional site that looks good. But the Buzzworthy team doesnt just take orders and pull something together that just meets what you think are your basic requirements.
The team took the utmost care to get to know what makes our products and services unique so they could create a visually compelling website that communicated our key value proposition to help us stand out in a crowded market. The page layouts, visual elements, and even the smallest details on the site all work together. It takes true mastery of their craft to balance visually stunning sites with functionality both in technical execution and as a part of an overarching sales and marketing strategy.
Buzzworthy is truly a valuable collaborative partner that wed be glad to work with again on future projects!

The whole Buzzworthy team was attentive to our wants and needs, and integrated our vision into the site design in a way that was so much better than we had ever hoped it could look. This is a very important cause to us and the team at Buzzworthy treated it with the care it deserved and delivered enormous value with an absolutely gorgeous website. I would recommend them to anybody!

We had an amazing experience working with Jerry especially on such short notice. We didn’t know if we wanted to have videography until about 1-2 weeks before the wedding. Jerry swooped in and did an amazing job. Instant film was completed and sent over the night of the wedding. Ceremony film was done within the week. Amazing turnaround speed and fantastic quality. I don’t know how he does it!

Melissa Eick's Review Sourced from Google
ICG-ADV took the time to deeply understand not just my organization's work, but the heart of our mission. Their work renewed, refreshed, and encouraged the entire team and even helped us see ourselves more clearly. We were able to start implementing their advice immediately, improving how we show the world who we really are.
ICG’s support came at the organization's ten-year anniversary. The work they did will leave an indelible mark and launch us into the next ten years stronger than ever.
If you're considering whether to work with them, I enthusiastically recommend their services.

Whitney Anderson's Review Sourced from Google
Working with ICG has been one of the most meaningful experiences in our nonprofit organization’s ten-year history.
We came to them in desperate need of a brand refresh. Our work is deeply complex and nuanced, and for years we had struggled to communicate it in a way that people could fully understand. Because we are so immersed in the work every day, we couldn’t quite find the words to name what we do in a clear and compelling way. ICG did.
From the very beginning, their team was professional, thoughtful, and deeply curious. They took the time to truly learn about our work, and in what can be a very vulnerable process, they created a space where we felt safe, seen, and understood. They also brought so much joy into the process—we laughed a lot, which made something that could have felt heavy or cumbersome instead feel energizing and human.
What they created for us is hard to put into words. They brought life, voice, and light to our brand in a way we had never experienced before. They named what we had been trying to name for ten years but couldn’t. When they revealed the brand, I was overwhelmed with tears of joy and gratitude. It felt like they had captured the heart of who we are and reflected it back to us with clarity and beauty.
We are continuing to partner with them on our website and video, and I am so grateful for their ongoing investment in our work.
This experience has given me so much hope, encouragement, and excitement for what’s ahead. Working with ICG has truly felt like a gift.
I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for a team that not only delivers exceptional creative work, but does so with heart, intention, and deep care.

6 Frequently Asked Questions About Social Media Marketing Companies
What services do social media marketing companies provide?
Social media marketing companies provide a comprehensive range of services that span strategy development, content creation, and optimization. Here are some of their core services:
Social media strategy
Content creation
Paid social
Community management
Influencer marketing
Analytics and reporting
Some companies also offer broader digital marketing services, including search engine optimization (SEO), paid media, email marketing, video marketing, public relations (PR), and landing page optimization.
What social media channels should your business prioritize?
For business-to-business (B2B) organizations, LinkedIn is often a top priority, while X may also be useful, depending on your industry and whether real-time conversations matter to your brand.
For business-to-consumer (B2C) brands targeting younger consumers, YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok are often stronger options.
According to the Pew Research Center, 95% of 18-29-year-olds use YouTube, followed by Instagram at 80% and TikTok at 63%.
A reputable social media marketing company should recommend a channel mix based on your goals, target audience behavior, and the type of content you can produce consistently.
When should you partner with a content creator vs. an influencer?
Partner with a content creator for asset creation. Conversely, choose an influencer for the audience. Here are more details about the differences between each to help you with your decision:
Content Creator
Influencer
Who are they?
Experts in their specific field who create engaging and educational content for a specific topic, niche, or format
Individuals with an established audience who can shape opinions and promote brands, products, or ideas
Content examples
Explanatory videos
Blogs and articles
Tutorials
Branded visuals
Product reviews
Unboxing videos
Sponsored posts
Social media giveaways
Best for
Building brand credibility in a niche
Filling content gaps through reusable assets (video, blogs, and graphics)
Quickly expanding brand reach
Developing trust with a target audience
Producing promotional organic content
How to measure the ROI of your social media efforts?
To measure the return on investment of your social media efforts, first clarify the business outcome you want to achieve with your social media campaign. For example, generating leads, sales, or demo requests.
Next, track key performance indicators (KPIs) tied to that goal, such as engagement rate, click-through rate, conversion rate, cost per lead, and return on ad spend (ROAS). Use attribution models, analytics tools, and UTM parameters to connect social activities to business results.
Industry benchmarks can provide helpful context, but they vary by platform, industry, and methodology. Here are benchmarks from an Emplifi research report to help you gauge campaign performance:
Instagram
Median engagement rate: 16.9%
Cost per mille (CPM): ~$2.50, with ad spend per account reaching $5,100
Facebook
Median engagement rate: 1.4%-2.5%
CPM: ~$1.40-$1.70, with ad spend per account reaching $8,500-$11,200
TikTok
Median engagement rate: 27.6%
CPM: ~$1.00-$1.30, with ad spend per account reaching $14,900
How long until you see the results of your social media marketing campaigns?
Paid social campaigns generate results within a few days or weeks, but organic social media may take at least 3 months.
For organic social media, you might see initial follower growth and engagement within the first few weeks of regular posting. After 1-3 months, your account may gain traction as content performance improves, and audience engagement becomes more consistent.
By months 3-6, you may start producing qualified leads, stronger brand recall, and sales impact, especially for newer brands that are still building and refining their strategies.
Paid media campaigns, by contrast, can generate visibility, traffic, and conversions within days or weeks, but long-term performance will depend on creative quality, targeting, budget, and optimization efforts.
Ultimately, the time required to see meaningful results depends on your brand awareness, content quality, posting consistency, audience targeting, offer strength, and your broader marketing strategy.
