IMPACT Reviews & Testimonials
Mike Ritzema's Review Sourced from Google
Before working with IMPACT, we were stuck trying to make marketing work on our own. I had read They Ask, You Answer (the previous version of Endless Customers) and believed in the principles, but doing it DIY wasn’t producing results. We were writing articles here and there, posting inconsistently, and missing clear calls to action. The content wasn’t building trust or generating the kind of sales opportunities we needed.That changed when we made the decision to get a coach. Working with IMPACT’s coaching team gave us the structure, accountability, and clarity that had been missing. They helped us understand how to create content that earns trust with potential buyers, draws them in, and positions us as the most preferred option they are considering. We learned how to align each piece of content with the buyer’s journey and give every article a purpose.The results have been measurable. In just one year, our website traffic grew by 18% at a time when many companies are seeing declines. More importantly, our sales opportunities nearly tripled and grew even more when we only count qualified trucking companies. That growth allowed us to hire a salesperson for the first time in four years, which freed our content manager to focus fully on building quality articles, videos, and new tools.The experience of working with IMPACT has been excellent. The coaching team brings accountability and guidance without overwhelming us. The conferences and community have also been a big part of our journey, giving us ideas, tools, and connections that make implementation easier.I would recommend IMPACT to any business that wants to stop guessing at marketing and start building trust that translates into real sales opportunities.
Jason Diller's Review Sourced from Google
I've been doing inbound marketing since 2010 and I can say that Impact is one of, if not the best, inbound marketing agencies in the country. They're great people that are highly skilled at their craft. I would recommend them to anyone with aggressive growth goals. Impact delivers great results and their team is as kind as they are smart.

Thank you Team Brandit.
Amie Harris's Review Sourced from Google
Brandit is top notch. Not only in the items that they sell, the care and detail they add to each product, but their customer service is something that is not found in many places anymore. It didn’t matter if I gave a great notice of an item needed, or if I called with an emergency, I was always treated like I was the only customer they had. They listen, and their ideas and guidance for the less than creative folk such as myself are just spot on. From banners, flags, clothing, to employee appreciation items, to reworking a total design and feel of a lobby; they are who you need to talk to. They’re such great people, that you may not only gain a great business partner, but you gain friends.

Hiring Guide: How to Choose the Right Video Production Company in the US
How do I choose the best video production company for my project?
Key factors to consider when choosing a company for a project in the United States include:
- Define clear goals: Know exactly what you want the video to achieve, whether that is brand awareness, product education, lead generation, or internal training. Clear objectives help agencies recommend the right format, length, messaging, and distribution approach, which reduces rework and improves results.
- Review portfolios: Assess overall video quality, storytelling, pacing, and production value. Look specifically for industry-relevant examples to ensure the agency understands complex offerings and long sales cycles.
- Check experience and expertise: Choose video production agencies with proven experience in your sector and with the specific video types you need, such as explainers, testimonials, or training content.
- Assess communication and collaboration: Strong communication ensures feedback is clearly understood and applied during each phase of production. Responsive agencies typically deliver smoother workflows, fewer revisions, and more predictable timelines.
- Budget transparency: Confirm costs for pre-production, production, and post-production. Transparent estimates help you compare vendors accurately and avoid unexpected expenses later.
- Ask for references: Client testimonials and references provide insight into reliability, professionalism, and delivery quality. Speaking with the video production company’s past clients can confirm whether the agency consistently meets expectations and deadlines.
What should I prepare before reaching out for project quotes?
Before contacting a video production company, prepare the following:
- Target audience and personas: Be specific about who the video is for, where it will be seen, and the problem it should address. B2B buyers often review 12 or more pieces of content before making a purchase, so messaging that speaks directly to their needs and pain points is critical.
- Budget range: Prepare a realistic budget range before reaching out to video production agencies. In the U.S., corporate video projects often cost $2,500 to $25,000 or more, depending on production complexity, animation, locations, and post-production needs.
- Timeline and deadlines: Share your desired launch date, campaign timing, or internal deadlines early in the conversation. Clear timelines allow agencies to plan resources effectively and avoid production bottlenecks.
- Reference examples: Collect examples of videos you like to communicate preferred style, pacing, tone, and level of polish.
- Brand assets and guidelines: Prepare logos, fonts, color palettes, messaging frameworks, and brand guidelines in advance.
What questions should businesses ask before hiring one of these companies?
Before hiring, businesses should ask targeted questions that clarify fit, process, and risk.
Relevant Background
- Have you worked with companies in our industry or with similar goals?
- Can you share recent client references from the US market?
Services and Processes
- What is your typical process from planning to delivery?
- How do you manage timelines and handle delays?
- How many revision rounds are included, and how is feedback handled?
Related to Your Project
- Who will be assigned to our project, and what are their roles?
- What is included in the quoted price, and what could cost extra?
How involved does my team need to be during the process?
Team involvement during video production is typically milestone-based rather than continuous:
- Pre-production requires the most input, including goal alignment and approvals.
- Production involvement is usually limited to interviews or on-site participation.
- Post-production focuses on reviewing edits and providing consolidated feedback.
Most B2B projects include 1 to 3 revision rounds.
Clear direction early in the process supports delivery within a typical 4 to 8 week timeline.
How do I measure whether a video production company delivered value?
To measure whether a company delivered value, evaluate performance against business goals rather than view counts alone.
Industry research shows that 74% of companies measure video ROI using engagement metrics, while 48% rely on conversion rates to assess success.
Key benchmarks include engagement and retention metrics such as average watch time, view-through rate, and completion rate.
You should also know that each platform counts views based on different criteria. For example, YouTube counts a view only if a user has spent at least 30 seconds watching a video.
On Instagram, a watcher should engage for at least 3 seconds, on Facebook just a second is enough, while LinkedIn needs 2 seconds. TikTok counts a video as watched if you’ve spent at least 1 second watching content that’s under 3 minutes long.
Conversion metrics like click-through rates, demo requests, and sign-ups indicate whether the video drove meaningful action.
Business outcomes should be measured by comparing lead quality, pipeline contribution, or revenue impact against total production cost.
Videos that can be reused across websites, paid ads, sales outreach, or internal training typically deliver higher long-term value.
