We were upfront about our budget restrictions and Web Antler was able to change the solution to fit within our financial year. They took our ECM and GDN and came up with great ideas about the way we could market ourselves on YouTube using our current assets. They’re also helping us with remarketing and using strategic buys to bring the costs down. We're planning to stretch further into the mobile space and do geo ranking.

We mostly work with our project manager.

They oversee all of our digital marketing efforts, from SEO and paid search to social media management and digital banners.

It’s still pretty early for us. Our site has been live for about six weeks, now, and we’ve just had our first full-month review. So far, everything is going well; we’re reviewing the data and tweaking our strategies as we move forward. We track in about two percent of traffic for our market, and the customer acquisition cost is lower than the market average.

How did Web Antler perform from a project management standpoint?

They keep diligent documentation around our schedule, outlining what and when something will happen. They’re also quick to reply via email. If we want to make any changes, even if they’re at the last minute, they’re happy to accommodate us.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Unlike other businesses that promise the world but under deliver, Web Antler does exactly as they say. They’re also easy to work with. Although I didn’t have much experience with digital marketing before, they’ve explained the process to me in a way that I could understand. Now, I can see why we do what we do and how we’re spending our money.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I don’t have many critiques. At this stage, we’re happy with their work.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Don’t be afraid of asking questions or seeking suggestions that work for you.
