Nation Media Design

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the senior director of marketing of an event management association.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Nation Media Design?

We were looking for a company that could support us with web redesign, advertising, and digital media. As a result, we hired Nation Media Design.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

I shared some intricate information that their company would be responsible for. After that, they implemented the web design we wanted. The team continues to support us with web maintenance, and they manage our digital marketing activities, which includes handling our Google Ads.

What is the team composition?

We’re working with Kaleb (Owner), and he’s our main lead. He also has other folks working on his side.

How did you come to work with Nation Media Design?

I found Kaleb on Upwork, and he had to go through a proposal process together with other competitors. I like some of the designs they created and appreciated the creativity that he brought to his clients.

Though Kaleb’s company was still young, we decided to use his services because he was agile and open to adapting to what we needed. We didn’t think an established company would be amenable to that.

What is the status of this engagement?

We began working with Nation Media Design in September 2020, and it’s ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

I’m really thankful that our working relationship has grown and that we’ve become true partners after we got through the onboarding process. Our internal marketing team is very hard to please and Nation Media Design has been able to build great rapport with them. We really appreciate the services they provide. Overall, they’re performing very well.

How did Nation Media Design perform from a project management standpoint?

Once the onboarding process was done, everything has been going well. We communicate 95% of the time through email and sometimes, we call each other. The team can also text me whenever they need an immediate answer. My team uses their service ticket system, too.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their desire to please and understand their customers is impressive. They know what results we need and they’re invested in helping us fulfill our objectives. We also admire their solid teamwork.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I don’t really have anything to share on areas they can improve. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Go deep into the details of your request so that your project can run smoothly. In addition, open lines of communication because every relationship has its bumps and roadblocks.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Nation Media Design began by conducting an in-depth audit of our website and online presence. They analyzed everything from our keyword strategy to how competitors in the testing and engineering sector were performing. Based on their findings, they developed a clear roadmap for improving our SEO performance, optimizing our website, and increasing visibility in search results.

Their team handled the technical aspects of SEO on our WordPress site, setting up tracking tools, analytics, and reporting dashboards. Once the foundation was set, they moved into a second phase that focused on backend optimization and content improvements.

Over time, our internal engineers continued to manage the website’s code and technical operations, while Nation Media Design provided ongoing SEO guidance. They’ve been responsible for producing optimized content, improving our on-page structure, and developing a strong link-building strategy that fits our industry niche.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The results have been outstanding. We worked with Nation Media Design throughout 2024, and their impact was undeniable. Although we had to pause the partnership in 2025 due to budget constraints, their previous work continued to deliver results months afterward.

Our organic traffic grew exponentially  from roughly 400 monthly visitors to over 6,000 by the end of the year. We also started receiving more qualified leads from companies that actually fit our service profile, which was a huge step forward for us. The SEO foundation they built continues to generate value, even after the campaigns concluded.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Nation Media Design was exceptional when it came to communication and organization. Their team kept us informed at every step, and the reports they shared were clear and data-driven. Our monthly meetings were particularly helpful they didn’t just present numbers but walked us through what influenced those results and how we could keep improving.

They managed the entire process with impressive efficiency. Compared to other vendors we’ve worked with in the past, Nation Media Design stands out for their accountability, transparency, and ability to keep things running smoothly. They required minimal input from us, which allowed our team to stay focused on our core engineering projects while still seeing measurable digital growth.

What was your primary form of communication with Nation Media Design?

Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Two things stood out the most: their team consistency and their specialization. Nation Media Design clearly invests time in hiring and retaining top talent. We’ve been working with the same experts since the beginning of our engagement, which has built a lot of trust and continuity in the work. That kind of stability is rare among agencies.

We also appreciated that they focus deeply on SEO and digital strategy rather than trying to do everything under one roof. Their approach feels intentional and refined — it’s obvious they understand the science behind digital growth as much as we understand the science behind testing and compliance.

Additionally, they’re refreshingly honest about bandwidth. They don’t overpromise or take on too much at once, which tells us they genuinely care about maintaining quality over quantity.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Nation Media Design could have done differently?

Honestly, no. The best advice I can offer anyone considering Nation Media Design is to trust their process and have patience. The results won’t happen overnight, but when they do, they’re well worth the wait.
