Project Management & Responsiveness
SmartSites demonstrated excellent project management throughout our engagement. They were highly organized, setting clear timelines for campaign launches, optimizations, and reporting — and consistently delivered on time or ahead of schedule. Our account manager, Richard Gideon, stayed in regular communication with us, promptly addressing questions, providing updates, and adjusting strategies based on our feedback or shifting business needs. Their responsiveness and proactive approach made it feel like we had an in‑house advertising team fully aligned with our goals.

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

What impressed us most about SmartSites was their combination of deep expertise and truly personal service. Unlike many agencies that feel distant or generic, SmartSites—through our account manager Richard Gideon—took the time to understand our specific industry, service regions, and customer base. They didn’t just run ads; they tailored every campaign to our goals, proactively suggested improvements, and backed everything with clear data. That level of care and customization made them stand out as a partner who genuinely invests in our success.

Are there any areas for improvement or something SmartSites could have done differently?

Overall, our experience with SmartSites has been excellent, and there’s very little we would change. If anything, we would have appreciated even more proactive sharing of new advertising opportunities or experimental campaign ideas as our engagement matured. While they were highly responsive to our needs, occasionally receiving a bit more forward‑looking insight—such as emerging ad platforms, seasonal promotion suggestions, or advanced audience targeting options—could have added even more value.

We track how many leads we get from online form fills and LSA ads versus other paid or organic advertising. We had an agency prior to SmartSites that had taken 5 months and gottne us only 37 leads. In only our second month with SmartSites, not even a full two months to be fair, they had gotten us 22 leads alone, and we're still in the learning phase and ramp up!
