Simply the bestWorking with Antonio and Paris was one of the best decisions I made for my cosmetic brand. As a small business trying to stand out in a competitive beauty market, I needed an agency that could truly understand my vision and help me reach a wider audience. From the very first meeting, their team showed a deep understanding of the cosmetic industry and took time to learn about our goals, products, and ideal customers. They developed a creative campaign that perfectly captured the heart of our brand natural, confident, and inclusive beauty. Through smart storytelling, stunning visuals, and well-placed digital ads, Antonio and Paris helped us connect with our audience on a more emotional level. They managed influencer partnerships that felt genuine and authentic, which boosted our engagement and trust among new customers. What stood out most was their professionalism and communication. Every step of the process was transparent, and they always listened to feedback. Their data-driven insights helped us understand what worked best and how to keep improving. Within a few months, our online visibility grew, website traffic increased, and sales followed naturally. Antonio and Paris didn’t just run ads they helped build a brand identity that people could relate to. Their mix of creativity and strategy turned our small cosmetic line into a recognized name in our niche. I’m truly grateful for their dedication and highly recommend them to any brand looking for genuine, measurable growth.

Dream TeamI had been leading a brand transformation project for a client, a key phase of which involved creatively aligning a portfolio of brands (through the respective packaging of these brands.) A key priority for us was to find a partner that not only possessed packaging expertise, but also a partner with a clear grasp of brand management fundamentals. Gestalt far exceed our expectations on both counts. The team at Gestalt were a dream from day 1. They didn't approach the work from a strictly 'design driven' perspective. They took the time to understand the brand work we'd been doing. They knew what we were setting out to achieve strategically. And with that brand understanding in mind, the earliest creative work was already firmly aligned to goals. This speed to solution was important. Out of the gate home runs were being hit. We were provided a wide range of conceptual options, all of which met the brief. And once we selected a concept to execute across the many brands, their expertise in both the specifics and subtleties of packaging design became apparent. Complete portfolio alignment, gorgeously expressed. A final note. Great creative is one thing. Obtaining that from a team that is so clever, easy and fun to work with is altogether less common. It was a joy and privilege working with everyone at this amazing agency! I'd recommend them to anyone unreservedly?

INCREDIBLE SERVICE!! (Super Professional + Super Friendly!!)To put it bluntly, our project would not have been NEARLY as professional, entertaining, or high quality as it turned out to be without the help of Big Teeth Productions, bar none. They were nothing but honest, decent, fair, and the work product immensely exceeded my expectations. They listened attentively to our needs during the creative development process, processed our particular needs effectively, and came up with creative solutions promptly, which we worked on together over time to create optimal outcomes. Turnaround time was awesome, and their platform for sharing media and communications was also very effective for efficiency. They put not only their time, but more importantly, their hearts and souls into their work with us. And they really and truly believed in us and what we were trying to accomplish, which is why, even aside from their inherent talents and skills in animation, graphics, and other creative assets, their work with us turned out to be so good in the end. Their team was functional, intelligent, creative, and driven, and Elise and Gregg delegated work to their employees when necessary prudently and with discretion. Their prices were quite (almost unreasonably in fact in my humble estimation) fair, and I was proud and happy with every single dollar we spent on this particular partnership. What's more, I consider them not only professionals and partners in our endeavor, but also true and real friends as well. They are, no doubt, just simply good people running a good business, and I could not recommend them more highly to folks looking for assistance with any type of animation, graphics, or creative work in film and video, among other activities I know they engage in with and for their clients from time to time. Contact them if you want good service and good results!!

This kind of work takes serious skill and creativity and Mane Co has it.I worked for a K-12 school district as a teacher and an athletic trainer, extremely involved in all home athletic events and the school district athletic programs. We pursued Mane Co to help us produce a video for a National Competition highlighting our school spirit, our athletic programs, and the quality of our student-athletes. The goal was to spotlight athletes, programs, and our school as a whole in the form of a promotional/highlight video. The goal was to use the video for athletic program advertisement as well as an entry for the National Powerade Power Your School Competition. The Mane Co team arrived on campus and set up for a filming session, took approximately an hour to get everything ready. In advance, I arranged student-athletes to bring gear and equipment and to be prepared for an informal interview regarding their school, their sport, their determination, and successes as an athlete. After the student interviews, the Mane Co team also attended a football game to capture some live athletic event video footage. I was very impressed with the equipment the Mane Co team used. I enjoyed watching them capture the video footage and interview the student-athletes. Mane Co. ended up making two videos both high-energy and high-quality. Mane Co captured all of the footage and made all of the edits in a timely manner. The videos that Mane Co produced were submitted to the Powerade Power Your School Competition. Our school won the competition which was a $10,000 prize to the school athletic programs. Only 10 of these prizes were awarded nationally. In my opinion, everything worked out perfectly. Everything was done quickly and done well. This kind of work takes serious skill and creativity and Mane Co has it. They were extremely motivated to make a great product. Extremely creative and unique in their video capturing, editing, and producing. Excellent communication. Timely and they met deadlines.

Development of naming, logo and corporate identity for a mobile accessories retailerWe set the Moloko Agency the task of developing naming, a logo and corporate identity. The main goal of the development was to stand out in the market and convey to potential clients that we have exactly what they are looking for - a trendy, high-quality range of mobile accessories for any phone model. However, as we closed the initial requests from our side, and seeing how well the agency does its work, the following requests appeared. Thus, as our work with Moloko Creative Ltd. developed, we also began cooperating with them in areas such as developing the appearance of retail outlets, their pre-installation visualization, website development, maintaining and promoting the brand in social networks, and developing a corporate presentation. Because brand development is closely tied to trends, we chose a company that solved similar problems. The portfolio of the Moloko agency, their corporate style and design of their website, and its stylistics made them the most successful of the agencies between which we chose. Also important was getting to know the team. They are young and energetic guys, which for us meant a match for our goals in product development. We liked their honest and open attitude, without enticing us with a low price at the start, etc. To date, we are introducing the design into the retail facilities and seeing how much brighter we are becoming. It is too early for us to draw conclusions yet, as we are writing this review between different stages of implementation, but we are confident in its success, because the main thing in it is that it inspires us.

Geared Advertising brought my nonprofit to fruitionAmid the COVID pandemic, Career Sparks was imagined, a nonprofit helping disadvantaged children with career exploration via a virtual setting. Being the Executive Director of Women's March Foundation helped me navigate the extensive paperwork and business requirements needed to start a nonprofit organization but I needed help architecting the platform and overall program. The one guy I knew could help me was Bil O'Neill from Geared Advertising, as we had worked closely together for several years when I held the position of VP of Marketing for Fatburger Corporation. Without hesitation Bil poured his passion, innovation and laser focused thoroughness into building my nonprofit. From crafting the initial concept, throwing his whole team on developing the online platform to test marketing the newly created site --Bil held my hand the whole way. He nudged me out of my comfort zone, challenged me to think bigger and supported me when I took flight. His level of care and attention to detail has always been his strong point, but what makes him special is his raw creativity. Usually you'd have to sacrifice one of these qualities for the other at ad agencies, but Bil seems to deliver both with ease. Now a 501c3 national powerhouse, Career Sparks has grown nationally...3,000 members strong and continues to provide opportunity to those children that need it most. Hands down, our platform would not be available today if it wasn't for the perseverance and sheer will of Bil O'Neill.

The Headword team gets it. They grew my business in ways I didn't think possible.When I hired Headword, I was looking for an agency to modernize not only our brand, but also the way we did business online. I had no idea that one company could help me in so many ways with so many different and complicated projects and also make everything fit together into one cohesive strategy, but Headword delivered.--------- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Wheelers originally hired Headword as a visual design consultancy to help revitalize our brand. They took the lead and developed an overall brand strategy that was easy for us to follow and get behind, so later when we had to make a lot of decisions in a lot of different areas, we always felt like we knew what was happening. They kept us in the loop like no other vendor I’ve ever hired.----- ------------------------------------------------------------------ My favorite moment was the logo reveal. I remember stopping them in the middle of their presentation and saying “This is it.” I’m not a designer or marketing guy, but the way they communicated with me made me feel like a genius. We made decisions together, and every decision just felt right.-------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Pretty soon, we had a new website up, and we launched an entire digital marketing campaign. I’ve read blogs and used a little social media, but I’ve never posted anything. They gave me regular reports of how my money was being spent and the results I was getting. I also got access to these easy to use dashboards so I could check in for up-to-the-minute updates.---------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------ The best part of my week is checking in with the Headword team. Their discussions, their ideas, and their energy made me feel like I was getting the chance to be a part of something new and cool. They’re always talking about new things. The two guys who run headword are super down to earth and are always seeking out my input.------ ------------------------------------------------------------------ We are so happy to have talented individuals and strategic thinking to help us grow our brand and our business in a category that is often overlooked. More importantly they do it with a great deal of respect and humility, and I find that incredibly valuable in a partner.------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------ We’ve seen a +478% ROI on what we’ve spent.--------------------------------------------------------------------- Within a couple of months, they had already generated over a million dollars of new leads for our sales team and helped us expand into new markets. A lot of people on our team were slow to embrace the idea of digital marketing, but at this point the results speak for themselves.--------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------ They have earned my business for years to come.

Very Effective at Brand Awareness and Social Media Marketing!We own a small boutique hotel at ski Snowshoe Resort in WV (Corduroy Inn). When we first opened the hotel in 2014, we hired Tailored Marketing to design our brand, which included logos, signage and marketing collateral. In 2017 we opened a new 220-seat restaurant and bar at the property (Appalachia Kitchen and Tuque's Bar & Grill). We hired Tailored Marketing to create our brand awareness marketing campaign, which included billboard signage and a comprehensive social media campaign. With both projects, Tailored Marketing was extremely effective. Within one ski season, the new hotel became Snowshoe's top producing hotel on a revenue per square foot basis. With regard to the new restaurant and bar, the success has been extraordinary. In the first ski season we doubled the revenue of the prior restaurant that occupied the space and we were very profitable. For any business to be profitable right out of the gate, especially in the restaurant/bar business, is remarkable. We attribute this success to the brand awareness marketing project conducted by Tailored Marketing! We highly recommend this firm, especially for startups or an established business launching a new product or any business that needs to generate brand awareness.
