They revamped the UI design for the client's site to allow users to have a smoother experience navigating through their platform. **Review Rating**: 5.0 - Quality: 5.0 - Schedule: 5.0 - Cost: 5.0 - Willing to Refer: 4.5 **The Reviewer** CMO & COO, Medicarewizard - Industry: Other industries - Client size: 11-50 Employees - Review Type: Phone Interview - Verified **The Review** — Oct 25, 2022 **Feedback Summary**: The client is delighted with their site's new beautiful, professional, and streamlined look. They adapted to the different scope changes and tight deadlines to ensure a solid project management experience. The team also praised their communicative approach to updating everyone on the process. "''They were the only provider that took on the challenge of meeting a tight deadline.''" **BACKGROUND** Introduce your business and what you do there. I’m the CMO and COO of Medicarewizard, a digital health insurance agency. We’re a B2C business focused on the medicare market that hauls from over 70 insurance carriers and their healthcare plans. Our main goal is to streamline people’s process of choosing the right medicare coverage to fit their needs through a simple questionnaire on our website. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** What challenge were you trying to address with Alpha Efficiency? We wanted to give our site’s frontend an aesthetic and stylish professional touch for our consumers. We tried to do this internally, but after numerous UX changes to our site, we couldn’t reach what we were looking for. Since our team didn’t have the capabilities, we decided to go with an outside hire for a web design team with experience working with consumer-facing businesses. We also needed a provider that could complete the task within a tight timeframe so we could have the platform ready for our peak demand season. **SOLUTION** What was the scope of their involvement? Alpha Efficiency redesigned our website. They collaborated with our internal development team on the data structures, formulas, and coding through a dynamic working model to ensure the completion of what we needed. The first step was to provide several design options and looks for the landing page, which was the project’s most critical deliverable among the 40–45 pages that Alpha Efficiency created. It has a dropdown menu with a table of contents that links to sections and numerous calls to action. They made these designs on Figma, which was helpful because we could comment and edit in real-time. After these design efforts, our internal team took Alpha Efficiency’s work and implemented it through a recoding sprint. In addition to that, as we were reaching our two-week deadline, they stepped up and were flexible enough to give us additional coding assistance. We added a supplement to our initial contract and provided them with extra resources to complete the new tasks, which they did with rates way below the market standard. For this part, they helped us with the landing page’s coding and other critical site features that were our trigger points for the consumer to stay with us and ultimately get conversions. What is the team composition? We worked with around four members of their team, including Brian (President), Angel (Designer), and Rada (Project Manager). How did you come to work with Alpha Efficiency? A director of marketing that worked for me referred them to me while I was doing research for web design agencies. After assessing all the potential proposals, costs, and timeframes, we decided on Alpha Efficiency because they said they could deliver under high pressure to meet our deadline requirements. Overall, we liked their mindful approach and ability to manage our expectations smartly by saying what they could provide within the two weeks we had to get the product. How much money have you invested in this partnership? We spent $11,000–$25,000 with them. What is the status of this engagement? We worked together from September–October 2022. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? The general look of the site is now beautiful because it’s well-blended with imagery and abbreviated messaging — before that, it was cluttered with text and images that were out of place. Our board members and internal teams have also given us great feedback on the new site. Overall, thanks to Alpha Efficiency’s work, our site is now much more professional and easy to use, and our engagement interactions are now stronger because we don’t have to spend time helping consumers navigate through the site. How did Alpha Efficiency perform from a project management standpoint? They met every milestone according to our deadline expectations despite our internal team slowing them down. Likewise, despite the different time zones, they worked with us on a daily basis, sometimes at odd hours for them — they were very flexible and quick at attending to every task. We would also send screenshots or some other documentation to them via email whenever something critical was missing, and they’d solve everything with impressive ten-minute-long turnaround times.  Regarding their team, Angel is one of the best designers I’ve worked with in my many years of experience; he quickly provided us with design options for the site, embraced edits, and showed additional suggested views through his expertise output. Moreover, Brian took a personal interest and was invested with our team to ensure we were getting exactly what they said they would. In addition, Rada was great at arranging meetings with people overseas through Zoom or Google Meet meetings to ensure that everyone on the team was updated, communicated, and synchronized with the project. What did you find most impressive about them? Out of our numerous options, they were the only provider that took on the challenge of meeting a tight deadline while adapting to the scope changes. Are there any areas they could improve? I didn’t think there was anything they could improve on. They understood the project and were mindful and effective throughout the process by setting clear expectations and telling us what they needed from us upfront.  Do you have any advice for potential customers? For bigger projects, I recommend using Alpha Efficiency rather than larger agencies. Alpha Efficiency can code, test, implement, and launch but also provide attention to details, timelines, deliverables, and client expectations, differentiating them from those other providers. --- #### Site Revamp for Automations & Analytics Agency **The Project** - Services: Web Design, Web Development - Project size: $10,000 to $49,999 - Project length: Aug. - Sep. 2022 **Project Summary**: Alpha Efficiency revamped the website of an automations and analytics agency's client.

The client loved it immediately and Alpha pressed on to turn around an entire site design in a matter of weeks. I did not expect it to go so smoothly! How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions? After my initial project launch meeting with Brian, I was able to communicate directly with the project manager and design team for the bulk of the project. Brian was on hand whenever necessary and checked in on the project regularly to ensure that i and my client were happy and things were moving forward smoothly. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables? My client loved the first design. Not only were no revisions required, no scope from my client, and no project lag, but the final deliverable was outstanding and better than I had anticipated when I set out to find a designer for this project. Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness. Their project management style was friendly, direct, and efficient. We communicate primarily using email and Figma. What did you find most impressive or unique about this company? What impressed me most was just how much responsibility they took for the project.

The engagement has been very hands-off from our end. First, we had some brainstorming sessions where we shared our ideas, and they then provided us with the first designs on Figma.

Finally, they handled the entire development process independently. Now, we have them on a subscription contract for continuous maintenance. What is the team composition? We’ve worked with Brian (Director of Strategic Planning), two project managers, and a designer. How did you come to work with Alpha Efficiency? We found them on Upwork.

Alpha Efficiency is very good at meeting deadlines and staying within budget. During development, we didn’t use a project management tool; they simply shared the repository for us to examine the code. We usually communicate via email. What did you find most impressive about them? Alpha Efficiency’s design knowledge and responsiveness are very good. Are there any areas they could improve? No, they’ve done a good job. Do you have any advice for potential customers? I don’t have any specific advice.

I’m the owner of a new pharmacy and wellness center based in Shorewood, Wisconsin. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** What challenge were you trying to address with Alpha Efficiency? We needed to develop a website for our business. We wanted it to be very attractive and easy to use. **SOLUTION** What was the scope of their involvement? Alpha Efficiency has designed and developed our website on WordPress, using Figma for the designs. They created its design from scratch, adding great graphics alluding to the pharmaceutical industry like needles and pills. Additionally, they implemented the Acuity Scheduling API and a contact page per my request. Users can also request to refill a prescription on the site, and we get an email notification when they use that option. Initially, they provided me with 3–4 different design options, but all of them were around the same concept. During the design process, Alpha Efficiency also designed our logo and color scheme. After deciding on the logo and the overall design, they developed the website. Currently, they provide us with maintenance services for the site. Additionally, they’ve been helping me design marketing collateral such as a banner for an advertisement magazine, business cards, flyers, and an email signature. What is the team composition? We’ve worked with Brian (President), Sara (Content Writer), a developer, and a designer. How did you come to work with Alpha Efficiency? I found Alpha Efficiency on Upwork.

The site is working very well, and it is very user-friendly and adaptive to every device screen. The scheduling system and the contact page are exactly how I wanted them, and users can easily request to refill a prescription or schedule an appointment. Additionally, the color scheme that Alpha Efficiency used is perfect; it is beautiful and bright. If I had to think of the color myself, I would never have chosen that one. Everyone I’ve shown the logo to has commented on its beautiful color and creative design. Furthermore, the site pages are very organized and well designed, which I really like.  Although I don’t have metrics yet, this site is going to help me a lot in this industry. With the COVID-19 testing and vaccine, for customers to be able to schedule appointments easily is very important. Overall, I’m 100% satisfied with Alpha Efficiency’s work; the process has been great, and the result has exceeded my expectations. How did Alpha Efficiency perform from a project management standpoint? Alpha Efficiency has done a fantastic job. Most of our communication has been over Figma, which I’ve really enjoyed. On there, I can see their work in real-time. We also communicate via email and phone calls. What did you find most impressive about them? Alpha Efficiency is very task-oriented. If they get a task, they work on it until completion, which is a very important strength of theirs. Additionally, they are very creative and efficient. Are there any areas they could improve? In order to better their service, it would be good if Alpha Efficiency offered more complete packages with additional branding collateral design options. Having more comprehensive design services would make them a one-stop-shop. Do you have any advice for potential customers? Contact Brian and listen to his suggestions. He has great ideas to improve your business, as well as a lot of experience. If you engage with Alpha Efficiency, you will get a better product than you thought. --- #### Web Design & Digital Marketing for Travel Company **The Project** - Services: Other Digital Marketing, Search Engine Optimization, Web Design - Project size: $10,000 to $49,999 - Project length: Sep. 2019 - Ongoing **Project Summary**: Alpha Efficiency designed a website for a travel company. They’ve also provided email support as well as digital marketing and SEO services. **Review Rating**: 5.0 - Quality: 5.0 - Schedule: 5.0 - Cost: 5.0 - Willing to Refer: 5.0 **The Reviewer** Founder, Brio Travel Artisans - Industry: Hospitality & leisure - Client size: 1-10 Employees - Review Type: Phone Interview - Verified **The Review** — Oct 13, 2020 **Feedback Summary**: Alpha Efficiency provides first-rate customer service, meets deadlines, and remains easily accessible. The highly responsive team manages the project seamlessly using Figma and an internal project management system. They’re passionate about their work and offer reasonable prices. "“I would definitely use them again and recommend them to others.” " **BACKGROUND** Introduce your business and what you do there. I’m the owner of Brio Travel Artisans, a luxury travel company. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** What challenge were you trying to address with Alpha Efficiency? They’ve helped me with a couple of different things. **SOLUTION** What was the scope of their involvement? I originally hired Alpha Efficiency for web design, SEO, and digital marketing. They used a system called Figma, which allowed us to comments on their designs. Their developers received those comments and then made changes. We’re using WordPress for parts of the website so that we can make updates ourselves. Earlier this year, they also helped me with an email issue. What is the team composition? I have two main points of contact, but I know there are more people on the team. How did you come to work with Alpha Efficiency? They were referred to me by somebody that I’d worked with on a different project. How much have you invested with them? It’s a little complicated because we started the project, stopped, and then basically had to start over. I’d say I’ve spent around $10,000. Part of that was probably due to me changing my mind. What is the status of this engagement? Our initial phone call with them was about a year ago, and then I needed to wait a few months to begin the project. We’re just wrapping it up now. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? One thing that I like about them is that they’re very easy to reach. I can get in contact with the owner, Bojan (Director of Strategic Planning), at any point in time. I think I’m a smaller client of theirs and that they work with bigger accounts, but I can always reach them. That’s been great from a service standpoint. Their turnaround time has been what they said it would be for everything they’ve done. In my experience, that’s rare with this type of work, so I’ve been very happy with it. How did Alpha Efficiency perform from a project management standpoint? The project management tools they’re using seem to work. Figma is the customer interface part of it, but they reference some kind of internal project management system that they have set up. Whatever they’re using is working because it seems to be pretty seamless from my point of view. What did you find most impressive about them? I would definitely use them again and recommend them to others. Their prices are reasonable. It seems like they see a value in projects that they want to work on, whether that means lowering their price beyond what they normally would. They mentioned to me that working on a travel website was something they wanted to add to their portfolio. They have a lot of other, different types of clients, but they saw value in working with a client like me, so I got a good price. Are there any areas they could improve? No — I think they’re great. They’ve been growing a lot, so they’re probably going to experience some growing pains, but I’ve been spoiled because I got in early. --- #### Web Design & Development for Consulting Services Company **The Project** - Services: Web Design, Web Development - Project size: Less than $10,000 - Project length: July 2020 - Ongoing **Project Summary**: Alpha Efficiency is building a website for a consulting services company. They’re providing creative direction and handling design, development, and project management. **Review Rating**: 5.0 - Quality: 5.0 - Schedule: 5.0 - Cost: 5.0 - Willing to Refer: 5.0 **The Reviewer** CEO, Nghiem Consulting Services - Industry: Other industries - Client size: 1-10 Employees - Review Type: Phone Interview - Verified **The Review** — Sep 8, 2020 **Feedback Summary**: Alpha Efficiency has facilitated a seamless process and delivered high-quality work thus far.

"“The process has been perfect for me.” " **BACKGROUND** Introduce your business and what you do there. I’m the CEO of Nghiem Consulting Services. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** What challenge were you trying to address with Alpha Efficiency? I approached Alpha Efficiency to create a website. The goal was to take an idea that I had and materialize it. **SOLUTION** What was the scope of their involvement? Alpha Efficiency is developing and designing my website. They’re doing the project management and handling of the coding. I gave them the opportunity to be as creative as they wanted, to expand on my original thought, and run with it however they wanted to. The direction that they’re taking it has been excellent. They’ve used Figma to design the site. What is the team composition? I’ve just worked with one person, Bojan (Director of Strategic Planning).  How did you come to work with Alpha Efficiency? I found them through a third-party contracting website called Upwork. I initially interviewed Bojan to do some copywriting for me. As we began talking, I became more and more impressed with his work and ideas. I decided to hire him to oversee the entire project. He gave me a timeline and a price, and I decided to go with them. How much have you invested with them? I’ve spent $7,000. What is the status of this engagement? We began working together about a month ago, in July 2020. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? I can’t speak to the results of their work yet, because we’re still mid-project. So far, they’ve done excellent work. How did Alpha Efficiency perform from a project management standpoint? I’m most impressed by the fact that Bojan is super open to thoughts and opinions from me. He goes out of his way to ask what I think about certain designs or workflows. He’s very open to second opinions, which I greatly appreciate; a lot of other people are stubborn or just want to do their own thing, but not Bojan — he’s willing to listen. What did you find most impressive about them? Their quality, responsiveness, and pretty much everything they offer has been exceptional. Are there any areas they could improve? No. The process has been perfect for me. --- #### Web & App Design & Dev for Pre-Order Restaurant Startup **The Project** - Services: Custom Software Development, Mobile App Development, Web Development - Project size: Less than $10,000 - Project length: May 2020 - Ongoing **Project Summary**: In addition to consulting and marketing services, Alpha Efficiency designed and developed a website from scratch for a restaurant platform startup.

I’m the founder, CEO, and president of Surve, which is in its early stages. We’ll help the restaurant industry with a preorder reservation application. It’ll help people dine efficiently. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** What challenge were you trying to address with Alpha Efficiency? I’ve engaged them to support numerous projects. **SOLUTION** What was the scope of their involvement? Alpha designed our website and other platforms to establish our foundation. Their team also executed front- and backend development, building both our site and app. For the app, they used a lot of native technologies. Their team also provided consulting and marketing services. They not only create the products but also conduct surveys. Based on that information, I make spreadsheets and other documents. What is the team composition? I’ve worked with at least three people from Alpha. How did you come to work with Alpha Efficiency? I found them through LinkedIn and Google searches. By talking with their team, I realized that we had the same mentality. They not only brought technical expertise but also tended to the details. Their team was courteous and all for their clients. It was a no brainer. How much have you invested with them? We’ve invested between $5,000–$10,000 in Alpha’s work. What is the status of this engagement? We started talking in May 2020, and our partnership’s ongoing. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?  Their work’s exceptional and impacts us greatly. As we grow, their work will continue to have an impact. They’re a great, jack of all trades team.

They transferred hosting from Squarespace to SiteGround and have initiated on-site SEO efforts, including blogging and keyword targeting. **Review Rating**: 5.0 - Quality: 5.0 - Schedule: 5.0 - Cost: 5.0 - Willing to Refer: 5.0 **The Reviewer** Co-Founder, Aeriform Cinema - Industry: Media - Client size: 1-10 Employees - Review Type: Phone Interview - Verified **The Review** — Aug 10, 2020 **Feedback Summary**: Alpha Efficiency excels at making digital platforms more profitable. In addition to designing an aesthetically pleasing, professional website, they have improved user functionality and reduced load time tenfold. The team facilitates an effortless process and is receptive to feedback. "“Their company mantra is ‘Make It,’ and they’ve helped make all aspects of our site happen.” " **BACKGROUND** Introduce your business and what you do there. I co-own Aeriform Cinema. We primarily do cinematic drone for TV shows and corporate companies. **OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE** What challenge were you trying to address with Alpha Efficiency? I've actually known Bojan (Director of Strategic Planning) and their team for a while, but I've never really needed to scale up our digital side of things. We've been doing drone work for Chicago primarily on a word-of-mouth basis for the past 5–7 years. Since I’ve known Bojan, he’s helped his clients to make their digital platforms more profitable. He’s been telling me that we’re missing out on our market share, even though we’re a word-of-mouth business. We were on Squarespace, and he repeatedly told me it was really important to have our own platform that they could design and custom-tailor to our needs. We decided to hire Alpha Efficiency so that we can potentially do some higher-end, targeted marketing. Right now, we’re only dealing with personal jobs, but we’re hoping that the website will allow us to grab some online market shares. **SOLUTION** What was the scope of their involvement? The majority of our sales are based on our images, so we wanted the site to be heavily image-based, with minimal wording. However, Alpha Efficiency let us know that we needed to have wording so that we can show up higher on search results. They helped us figure out how to work in wording while making sure the site is visually beautiful. We also need to be able to update our content somewhat frequently, and they’re building out some items so that we can easily adjust our images and video content on our own. We haven’t rolled out too many campaigns yet, but they’ve helped ensure our site shows up in higher results. They’ve initiated some WordPress blogging directly through our site with targeted keywording, along with any of our descriptors on the page, so that we’re consistently using a word bank that’s going to get more attention. What is the team composition? I primarily work with Bojan and occasionally two other individuals. I spoke with Bojan about what I needed, and I started an email thread that included some of the content and designs that we liked and wanted to embrace. Then, we gave them all of our visual content; since we have so much drone footage and video, it was easy for us to give them usable imagery. We worked with one of their designers to really build it out and make sure that it was going to look how we expected it to before they did too much of the coding. I only exchanged 1–2 emails with that designer, and he took over everything; I didn’t have to micromanage. He got it into a pretty rounded out direction as to where it is now. How did you come to work with Alpha Efficiency? Bojan really prides himself on helping people understand and take that step into this realm. There are a lot of small business owners and entrepreneurs that are trying to take a step into the digital, but all they know is that they should build a website; they don’t realize how much they’re missing if they’re not tailoring the site. Bojan helped me understand that I could increase profitability if I just marketed the site in the right directions. I’ve talked to other people in similar realms; it seems like everybody builds websites and does SEO. However, finding someone with a team that’s ready to tailor it to your needs was an advantage.  How much have you invested with them? We’ve spent roughly $10,000. What is the status of this engagement? We started talking in March or April 2020. There wasn’t too much going on due to the pandemic, so we took that time to foster the relationship and discuss what we needed to do. Bojan helped me understand what needed to happen, such as migrating all of my hosting services. Then, once we got later into April, they laid out expectations and designs, and it didn’t take them more than a couple of weeks to home in on the design and start fleshing out the coding. We’re currently fixing things on the backend so that my team can interact with the site more, without having to know too many coding capabilities. **RESULTS & FEEDBACK** What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? Alpha Efficiency made it easy by helping me understand the transition process and website performance. I always want to have the highest quality image, but that’s not sustainable when building a website. It wasn’t until Bojan’s team redesigned our site that I realized how much faster it could be if it’s properly built out. I think the improved user functionality will help with targeting. I didn’t realize how much actually goes into this process, which is why I started working with them in the first place. We had to migrate all of our stuff from Squarespace to SiteGround because they were building their own custom framework to make our website run as fast as possible. They cut the load time by almost 10X. How did Alpha Efficiency perform from a project management standpoint? I know his team has been working around the clock to get stuff done whenever we need it. Most of the communication is pretty frictionless; I mostly deal with Bojan, and then he communicates with his team. He knows who needs to handle what function. I don’t need to know what is going on behind the curtains. They also take care of any feedback we give rather quickly. Once we were on the same page, we communicated over email so that we’d have a written record of expectations and it could be easily forwarded to anyone who needed the information. We had some phone calls for specific things, such as to clarify technical terms or avoid miscommunication.  What did you find most impressive about them? Their company mantra is ‘Make It,’ and they’ve helped make all aspects of our site happen – they helped us make it aesthetic and professional, and they really made it our own. They have lived up to their reputation on making it happen for us, and I’d say that is their strong suit.   Are there any areas they could improve? I think what they’re striving to do and have already gotten better at is communication. We have had some weird asks, such as integrating a stock footage portal. Trying to figure out how to add things to the scope has been a little challenging for some of the projects. They could dial in on our numbers and expectations, but I do think they’ve delivered pretty well on that end. We didn’t really know what we were walking into as we asked for some things. Any advice for potential customers? Have some conversations with them. If you’re trying to take a step into a digital realm and make something from scratch, get on the same page about what you want. They can make anything happen for you; it’s just a matter of fleshing out those details and making sure that what we’re asking for is really what we want, and not wrong terminology. --- #### Web Design & SEO for Law Firm **The Project** - Services: Search Engine Optimization, Web Development - Project size: $10,000 to $49,999 - Project length: Aug. 2019 - Ongoing **Project Summary**: Alpha Efficiency delivered web design and SEO to a law firm based in Chicago, helping to improve on-page organization and target specific keywords by writing blog posts for the site. **Review Rating**: 5.0 - Quality: 5.0 - Schedule: 5.0 - Cost: 5.0 - Willing to Refer: 5.0 **The Reviewer** Principal Attorney, Law Firm - Industry: Legal - Client size: 1-10 Employees - Review Type: Phone Interview - Verified **The Review** — Jul 31, 2020 **Feedback Summary**: The final website and subsequent marketing work performed by Alpha Efficiency has met all client expectations for the project, allowing them to improve their digital presence while focusing on the core of their business.
