The client submitted this review online.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

For 15 years I have been the face and the founder of both fitness and wellness companies. We bring a full spectrum of fitness and wellness to our in-house clientele. As well as through virtual programs, corporate clients and co-branding marketing partnerships.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Brandefy?

Most recently we hired Brandefy to shoot, edit and direct 6 instructional fitness videos for a new online course we are rolling out in 2020. I originally worked on a longer project with Brandefy a few years back.

What were your goals for this project?

Very fast turn around with quality material! I gave them a second challenge- I wanted it to look professional but to also appear like I shot it on my own. I did not want it to appear too polished, and I wanted it polished all at the same time.

I have no doubt there may of been some foreheads in hands as I told them this on our pitch call. :-) But they nailed it!!! I could not be happier.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I originally worked on a longer project with Brandefy a few years back. In this project I was hied as the expert talent and Brandey was the video team. We did approximately 30 videos together over a course of a month, I believe we did 3 1 day shots.

I was impressed with the professionalism, focus to detail and positive laidback attitude of Marton and everyone at Brandefy. Now that I am producing my own courses and programs I felt it was a no brainer to reach out to Brandfy.

Describe the video(s) and the process in detail.

On this recent project we shot 3 20-30 minute instructional workout/ coaching videos and 2 10 minute additional content videos. We wen t with a 2 camera approach.

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

Marton and I had 2 calls prior to the shoot where we discussed the look, feel, and style. He was great about listening to my ideas, then constructively giving his professional opinions to enhance my vision. It truly felt collaborative.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

It looks good- we just started selling the program so I don't have user feedback yet. I am confidant the material will have good reviews from my consumer. With that said I suspect that I could easily go to Brandefy and share any negative commenting and that they would do their best to fix for us.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Seamless. The Brandefy team are tru professionals. They were respectful to everyone on my team. They carried themselves with confidence not arrogance. Which made my team relax, giving them the space to only do their job. And, don't have to followup on every detail. In fact nothing fell through the cracks. It's like Brandefy doesn't have any cracks.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

It's hard to just give one thing. The quality of the work was very good, but I think the thing that sets them apart from any of the other very good production companies out there is their personal touch.

I felt like I was working with friends, and that we were in this together. That means a lot to me and makes it all a more enjoyable process. I did also love Marton's directing/notes during shoot- that really helped me shine at a whole new level.

Are there any areas for improvement?

No. I mean Marton and his team were even great with my dog being on set and in some of the shoots- which I dropped into their lap the day of! Oops.

Brandefy delivered high-quality, well-produced videos. Efficient and organized, the team worked quickly and communicated well. They were open to making edits and changes to ensure full client satisfaction. Their responsiveness and knowledge combined with the quality of their work set them apart.

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the president of a company that manufactures specialty abrasives.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Brandefy?

We needed to create some 2D and 3D videos for YouTube and tradeshow purposes.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Brandefy provided video production services to us. They sent us a form to fill out to provide the details of our product and what we were looking for. We laid that out for them, and then they put the scripts together, organized the shoot, and edited the film.

What is the team composition?

Marton (CEO & Executive Producer) was my main point of contact.

How did you come to work with Brandefy?

I found them on Google and worked with them because their portfolio was very high-quality. They were also local to where I was at the time.

How much have you invested with them?

My company spent $5,000–$10,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked with Brandefy from around January–April 2019.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We wanted a high-quality product, and they delivered on that. If we need another well-produced video, we’ll talk to them again.

How did Brandefy perform from a project management standpoint?

They were excellent in this regard. Marton and his team were very organized and efficient, and that was appreciated. They were very quick and communicative in terms of responding, putting scripts together, and organizing the shoot in a timely manner. They helped tweak different edits to make sure that we were happy, without bothering us with any updated statements of work or anything. They worked within our budget and were easy to work with. We mostly communicated via email.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their responsiveness, in conjunction with their knowledge and the quality of their work, was unusual and appreciated.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, not for us.

Any advice for potential customers?

You need to know what you want to communicate about your products. They will do a great job producing it, but you need to know what you want the end result to look like.

Once we selected Bradefy, Marton worked with us all the way throughout the process clarifying all the details. Even not being in the same state the communication back and forth was smooth and always very clear. I worked with Marton before and after the live event via telephone conversations and phone.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I was a Realtor at Reilly Realtors. One of the largest independent brokerages in Austin Texas. It has since been bought out by Realty Austin and all of my old marketing has been shelved.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Brandefy?

Small series of info and entertaining videos to get new real estate clients. Show what is in it for them and why I could help them make dreams come true and it be fun in the process.

What were your goals for this project?

Differentiate myself from the mass of Realtors in the market. Share my core beliefs, technology utilized, benefits of working with me and areas of focus. Show my professional side with a personal touch and Im pretty silly and that was important to show my clients would have fun in the process of buying or selling a home!

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

Im not a big researcher online, word of mouth is how I found out about Brandefy and Marton. Then the speed and ease of communication sealed the deal. Marton listened to my vision, offered insights on how to maximize that and make it better than I could of imagined...on my budget!

Describe the video(s) and the process in detail.

I gave Marton a list of goals/topics I wanted to cover. He interviewed me to get a better understanding. He then highlighted which would go, gave an overview with visual aid on how the thought it would work best. He took my feedback and made adjustments as I requested. There were a couple points that he pushed not to change, and in the end he was right on those!

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

I got really busy while during the process. Marton was great about poking me to do my part to stay on task. Marton is a great email communicator, Im more of a talker and he understood that and would call instead of trying to type/explain process to me. Brandefy delivered exactly when they said the would, and what they said they would. I had 5 one minute videos that shared who/how I was and the benefits of working with me. They were engaging, entertaining and informative. I got GREAT feedback from folks who saw them.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

They were cute and unique, they made the rounds and I would get recognized in my office. My clients enjoyed them and would share too. It was a conversation starter on many levels. Folks who werent referrals found me!

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

I am my team! It was smooth, I didnt have to follow up. Updates and info flowed freely and on time. It was nice to not have to be a driving force to get something done! At that time I worked for myself by myself, if I didnt do it it didnt get done. Brandefy set an expectation and then nailed it!

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The level of professional output for a client that is probably their smallest account. Marton listened, engaged and treated me like a top tier client, turns out his style is to make sure Brandefy's products are always top notch.

Are there any areas for improvement?

It was my only experience with this type of production and Im very happy the results. Its been fun thinking about that time when doing this review. I dont have any "but" issue, like "the video was great BUT I wish they would have..." It was a solid experience and if I get in the position again to showcase a produce or service I would reach out to Brandefy!

Working with Marton and his team at Brandefy has helped expand our brand and get the appropriate messaging out about who we are and what we do.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Brandefy?

We hired Marton and his team at Brandefy to create videos of who we are and our company as well as a Whiteboard explainer video. We also were on a subscription basis with Brandefy for Video SEO but we changed the direction of that project and the HONEST team at Brandefy stated that service was no longer necessary since we moved into a different direction.

Since the project has been completed we now have the whiteboard explainer video listed below all of our sales and marketing teams signature, on our website and is viewed by 20K plus recipients who receive our weekly newsletter.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I did my research and it was worth having Marton and his team fly out from California to do the project. I wanted someone who was easy to work with and communicate with, patient and most importantly an expert in his industry. The price was fair and the results were worth every penny!

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

For the whiteboard explainer video we had several back and forth conversations about the message, timeline even details on the voice selected behind the video (male, female, young, old etc.) after several discussions and planning Brandefy provided us with draft after draft until we got it to where we wanted it. Because Marton and his team "get it" it only took a few drafts to get to our final product which is really nice.

What was the team composition?

I worked directly with Marton Varo.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

As I mentioned earlier the whiteboard explainer video is on our website, in our weekly newsletters and part of the sales & marketing teams signature. When we first released the video I had about 12 people ask who did the video and if I would be willing to share Marton''s info which I happily did. The company videos are on our website and our YouTube channel dan used periodically in our newsletters'.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Easy, respectful and stayed within the timeline we requested. I would work over and over with Marton and the team at Brandefy. I love their work and working with them.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their knowledge base and professionalism throughout the project impressed us. Over time I feel like Marton and I became friends but when it came to the projects at hand it was always kind but professional. We are a small company from a user perspective so good relationships with our partners makes the execution of projects and workflow a better experience.,

Are there any areas for improvement?

Not from what I can see at this point.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I am the chief scientific officer of Live Pet, LLC, a company that develops pet products such as joint and cancer supplements.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Brandefy?

We hired Brandefy to develop a market penetration strategy.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Brandefy helped us with our social media and internet presence, setting up our Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter accounts, and getting us on international podcasts to talk about our brand. They also researched our target demographic and found that Facebook and Instagram were their primary and secondary networks of choice, so that’s where they ran the campaigns.

The team also did two rounds of branded video production, handling both pre- and post-production, as well as editing. The first was an “about us” icebreaker video that told our company’s story. They flew down to Austin, played with the animals in the fields, and took videos of them. The second round was a series of 5–6 video testimonials from customers who had used our products. Marton wrote specific questions that elicited good responses from the people he interviewed. The purpose of this was to get clips that we could use for social media marketing.

What is the team composition?

We worked primarily with Marton (CEO & Executive Producer, Brandefy) and occasionally with one other person.

How did you come to work with Brandefy?

I had worked with Brandefy previously at another company upon recommendation. When we started our new company, we decided to bring them in because we had had such a great experience with them and they were inexpensive.

How much have you invested with them?

So far, we’ve invested under $50,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with them in 2015 and our relationship is ongoing. They're not doing any work for us right now but when we need them to, we'll reach out.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Our year-over-year (YoY) growth, has been doubling most likely because of the social media campaigns. It currently stands at 108%. At first, I was apprehensive about the approach Brandefy was taking, but I ended up loving it. 

They truly caught the essence of who we are and what we do. A lot of people have commented on the emotional aspect of the videos. 

How did Brandefy perform from a project management standpoint?

We had no issues. The whole process was smooth and there were no delays. The team communicated well and handled all our questions and needs with no problems. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

They had a single point of accountability which was Marton. He handled and took charge of everything. I was also pleasantly surprised by the superior quality, direct lines of open communication, and free flow of ideas.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I wish they had more bandwidth. I would love for them to have an office in Austin so I don’t have to fly Marton in every time I need work done, though I understand that it’s difficult to scale.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Listen to them. The only thing that slowed us down initially was my reluctance to do things their way. Listen to them and take their creative advice to heart, especially because you’re paying to hear it.

Feedback summary: 

Several statistics show that Brandefy increased the client’s social media and overall online presence. They directly contributed to the client’s success with their responsiveness, diligence, and timeliness. Consistently going above and beyond, they maintained a successful working relationship. 

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m one of the founders of Visual Snow Initiative. We create awareness for a neurological disorder.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Brandefy?

We focus on a condition that my daughter has that is not very well-known. After attending a conference, we realized that we needed to create awareness for the disorder within the medical community, specifically with neurologists before working on solutions.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Brandefy has created over 100 videos for us, some of which are in other languages other than English to accommodate our worldwide presence. The videos may be as short as one minute or as long as several hours. They’ve produced stills for us as well. Marton (CEO & Executive Producer, Brandefy) brought a team on board and gave us concepts for logos, editing, camera angles, and scripts. They’ve also delivered 20–30 public service announcements that feature celebrities. This was all new to me, so I had to learn on the fly. But, Marton helped with the process through a camera setup and script that addressed what visual snow is.

We had a Q&A on our website about what people wanted to know about visual snow. Brandify just came back from doing a worldwide Q&A with experts on this neurological condition.

What is the team composition?

My main point of contact is Marton. I also worked with his sound and camera specialists, as well as a few social media resources. In total, I worked with about six people.

How did you come to work with Brandefy?

I interviewed 5–6 production companies in Los Angeles and explored each of their websites. I met Marton, and we talked. At that point, I felt that he was the right person for the job. It ended up being fortuitous for me.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent between $50,000–$200,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We began working together in 2018, and the relationship is currently ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

I attribute our success to Brandefy. The feedback from people living with the condition is overwhelmingly positive. The videos Brandefy created have allowed us to establish a presence in 55 different countries. 

Our organization has received over 15.5 million impressions across all of our social media channels over the past 18 months. In this timeframe, we saw month-over-month (MoM) increases in engagement, clickthrough rate, follower count, and open rate. These increases all easily outpaced the industry averages.

Our average increase in engagement MoM on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube is 4.7%. The average increase in views MoM on our website from social media is 28%. Our growth in followers across all social media MoM is 16.2% and the nonprofit industry average is 4.5%. Our average open rate across all email marketing is 45.6% compared to the nonprofit industry average of 21.3%. The average click-through rate across email marketing is 12.4%. All of this data is based on the past 18 months.

How did Brandefy perform from a project management standpoint?

They’re responsive and diligent. Marton takes his time but completes tasks as promised. The price points are always spot-on. If anything will cost extra, he lets us know—no surprises. That’s rarely seen in business.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They exceeded expectations in all facets of our business. I felt so comfortable with Brandefy that I was able to bounce ideas for creative off them. They did such a great job on the video production and editing that I was able to request tasks that I wouldn’t ask of an ordinary parter.

Not only did they manage those tasks, but they performed amazingly well. Marton now functions as a consultant for virtually every aspect of our company. I don’t usually do reviews for companies, but our brand wouldn’t be where it is today without Brandefy.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, there is nothing they could improve on.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Brandefy’s business model is the way to go. Not only will you learn a lot, but you’ll be both financially successful and find the process fulfilling. They’re great people to work with.
