Introduce your business and what you do there.
I work for TalkingTree Creative, an experiential marketing agency specializing in live events, video production, and VR content.
What challenge were you trying to address with Agency 102?
We hired Agency 102 to enhance our organic search performance results by creating compelling content for Google users.
What was the scope of their involvement?
To start this engagement, we gave Agency 102 an orientation around the philosophy of our work and mission statement. We told them about our business and helped them learn the unique qualities of our business. From there, they integrated their services with the subject matter that we wanted.
At present, Agency 102 helps us with our blog and social media posts, newsletter, and email marketing content. They also help us with content for our case studies and for our social media accounts such as Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn. All the content we create has images. Sometimes, there are videos, too; we create videos and then give them to the team to integrate with their copy.
What is the team composition?
In total, we work with three people from Agency 102, including a copywriter. We mainly work with Hannah (Founder & Chief Strategist) and a graphic artist. Hannah has also brought in other people to the team.
How did you come to work with Agency 102?
We knew about Agency 102 because Hannah had worked on our account in a previous business.
How much have you invested with them?
We spend around $1,800 per month. Our team spends more in some months and less in others, but that’s the average cost of their services.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working with Agency 102 in August 2021, and the engagement is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We’ve seen increased traffic across the board. The Agency 102 team has been great in giving us statistics and reports every month. Moreover, the traffic has increased not only on our website but also on social media — social media traffic is up around 300%, which has a huge impact on our business.
All of the traffic feeds into our inbound marketing. The number of inquiries for projects has gone up, too. Those inquiries have previously gone up and down before our engagement, but they’ve been going up since August 2021.
How did Agency 102 perform from a project management standpoint?
Agency 102’s project management is excellent. They ask me for what they need from me, and they remind me if I don’t do it right away. In other words, they’re great at communicating with us. They routinely send drafts of whatever they’re going to write or do in advance. Most of the time, the content they produce doesn’t need much editing. Other times, there's no more than one editing round. They also provide us the dates of when such content goes out, and I see when it does go out.
Overall, this has been the easiest engagement I’ve had. They always let me know what’s going to happen and when it’s going to take place. They do what they say they’ll do, and I can’t ask for anything more.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Hannah has expert knowledge about all types of marketing, whether it’s SEO or social media and email marketing. Moreover, Agency 102 has a huge network of talent that they can draw from, and they always find the right people to work on our account whatever the task is.
That’s the most noteworthy thing about them. Hannah has the complete package in terms of expertise, and she brings in the right talent as needed. They’re always effective in doing the projects.
Are there any areas they could improve?
Larger companies have departments that can holistically take care of a website in different technical ways. By contrast, Hannah doesn’t have a lot of in-house resources.
To be fair, those technical services aren’t Agency 102’s main focus area; it’s not what they’re selling. As a result, I wouldn’t call this a true weakness.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Be clear about what you want. If you don’t know your goals, the project can be difficult to accomplish. Meanwhile, if you communicate your goal clearly with Agency 102, they’ll either make it happen or tell you the best way to achieve it.

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the senior marketing manager at a mobile eye clinic. We provide routine optometry on wheels primarily to local companies. Additionally, when the COVID-19 pandemic began, we started working in life sciences by conducting clinical trials.
What challenge were you trying to address with Agency 102?
We needed someone to help us market our life sciences work.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Agency 102 is helping us promote our life sciences work. They handle the entire marketing side of that project while I run marketing for our work in optometry.
The team primarily creates blog posts and manages social media ads. Additionally, they’ve written Q&A articles, web copy, and nominations for us. They also provide email marketing by setting up and sending out newsletters. In terms of design work, they’ve created flyers and other marketing collateral for us.
What is the team composition?
We only work with Hannah (Founder & Chief Strategist).
How did you come to work with Agency 102?
I don’t know how we started working with them because I wasn’t with the company at the time.
What is the status of this engagement?
The project started in September 2020, and it’s ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Agency 102 has definitely done a lot for our marketing efforts — the team constantly delivers high-quality content. We’ve seen positive results since they started working with us.
How did Agency 102 perform from a project management standpoint?
They’re very responsive. We primarily communicate through Slack, and we also have weekly meetings.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They put a lot of their time and effort into their work. Although they have other clients, they’re incredibly responsive and put their focus and time into the project.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, I can’t think of anything they could improve.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Ask as many questions and utilize them to your advantage. Agency 102 can do anything for you marketing-wise.
The company has seen greater traffic on their website and other channels. Their social media traffic has risen by 300%, while customer inquiries about their service have also significantly increased. Agency 102 is on top of everything and possesses in-depth expertise that helps them deliver results.
