Please describe your company and your position there.

I work for an investment real estate brokerage. We acquire both single and multifamily homes at wholesale value to be used for investment purposes. My role there is as a sales agent for the company as well as a part time investor.

For what projects/services did your company hire MontaVega Media?

As this is one of my first of many projects to come, I decided to bring MontaVega on to use there services in two different ways. The first was to film the progress of the flip of the property.

This is great content for my social media and to market my flip homes. Just like on HGTV, everyone loves to see a property to transform. The second reason being I had them take professional photos of both the before, then afters that I will use when the property is listed to be resold.

What were your goals for this project?

My goals for this project other than having professional photos for the listing, was to really get their great video content for the process of the flip. Construction projects especially on older homes are always at high risk for something to go wrong.

However to see the challenges overcome on the project was truly valuable for the business and reputation of the work we can accomplish.

How did you select MontaVega Media?

They were personally recommended to me from another real estate team that used them in the local area! I first scheduled a meeting to meet with them to see some of their past work.

Then I met with them along with my contractor to go over a filming schedule for the project. This way we could project the changes that should be seen each time they come. I was very impressed with their knowledge on the process. They told me the best times to film and were flexible with working with my schedule.

My contractor and I both believed it would be a great fit. We contacted another local party that had great advertising online, however we did not go with them because they were not flexible with our schedule, as well as not responsive and hard to get ahold of. I saw none of these concerns with MontaVega.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

Once we gave MontaVega the job, we sat down with them to finalize the schedule we had already talked about. We agreed on a filming schedule for every Friday for one hour at 1pm for the length of the project.

My contractor gave them the list of what should be done each week, which was an extent of a wall coming down, carpet coming up, new floors installed, cabinets delivered, bathroom remodel, etc. When they came each week they were very efficient.

I was always there to meet them, they never lost their knowledge and remembered what was knew and what to focus on each time. They were responsible for capturing the changes. On top of that the final day at the end of the project they captured the changes and then set up for the professional photos for the listing.

The team all was very impressed how they turned out. Once we were done they stayed on track of their two week schedule to create three different thirty-second videos of the process of the flip. I then used these on my facebook and instagram marketing pages.

What was the team composition?

I worked closely with all three members of the team. Their team never changed and all were very responsive to me as well as my contractor. Matthew always came to do the filming week after week and was always prompt.

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

This project provided great marketing and has lead to me to acquire more investors to my list to provide them similar homes. They really loved seeing how the work turned out and opened their eyes to feel more comfortable jumping into this business with me.

My sales have already increased 10%. My initial goal was to just provide content to my pages as I did not have professional examples, so for this increase of sales my expectations has been exceeded.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Even though they were slightly behind one week, I was very impressed with their communication skills. They always were available if I had any concerns or questions.They addressed them right away and were never dismissive.

We met to speak both over the phone and on video via googlemeeting. There timing was prompt which was fantastic for my busy schedule.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

What was unique is the tools and knowledge they have on scopes of projects. They are especially knowledgable on social media marketing which was perfect for my project.

I personally loved that they have a small team to work with, it felt more personable. They really cared about building the trust between us which made the project go much more smoothly.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Of course things can be done faster and if they could answer every time I called with a question, however they did always respond back to me within 24hours which was their promise. You can tell MontaVega holds there employees to a high standard with their clients.

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the Social Media manager/coordinator at a retail firework business located in Hebbronville, Texas. Our family-owned business has about 10 employees and we serve our fellow Texans along the south part of the state. I oversee our social media accounts such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

Our direct contact was very attentive to our project. Within two weeks we had several phone conversations and the process of the project flowed smoothly. Deadlines were given and the project was delivered when promised.

I was amazed by how the company was very open to learning more about what we do and impressed on the history of our business. Family-owned and operated since 1952, we definitely look forward to working with this company on future ideas.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Everything can always be done faster, but their work is top-notch. Although speed is ideal, the quality of work is most important to our business.

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

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am a self-employed author, and just recently finished a novel 

For what projects/services did your company hire MontaVega Media?

I attempted to self-publish my novel through the typical avenues. Unfortunately, my results were very limited. Not having expertise with the various social media platforms, I needed assistance with those potential resources. Then an associate of mine told me about MontaVega Media, and the positive results were immediate and amazing.

What were your goals for this project?

I wanted to have my novel, Stolen Talent, attain better exposure which I could not achieve on my own. The publishing world can be closed to outsiders who lack an aggressive agent. Unless an author can get their work seen, these is typically very little positive outcome. I wanted my novel seen in as many places as possible

How did you select MontaVega Media?

I spent weeks culling through dozens of potential companies who promised big results through their connections. Within a short time, I soon realized they lacked both the resources and passion that I was looking for. Then a colleague suggested I consider MontaVega Media. The difference was immediate and positive. Within a day they established a strategy that no other business had considered. It was at that point I knew they were the right choice.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

Immediately after I selected MontaVega Media, the company went to work developing a "game plan" to reach a broader audience I had never considered. From social media platforms I had never heard of before, to a myriad of unknown book vendors, they did it all! I had little participation in the project, since their expertise was obvious. I have never felt a level of trust in a company like I've felt with MontaVega Media.

What was the team composition?

I have worked closely with the two principals of MontaVega Media. Over time, another employee joined the process, who added some invaluable insight. I was impressed that my direct contact with an established company like MontaVega Media would be with the owners of the business, rather than a subordinate worker.

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

Since working with MontaVega Media, I've seen an immediate increase in my book sales. To date, that increase is around 73%, as compared to the previous quarter. MontaVega Media has offered their metrics, which suggest an 85% increase in book sales for the remainder of the year. In addition, I've received numerous contacts from various people who have now been exposed to my work.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The lead developer with MontaVega Media made contact with me on almost a daily basis. Nothing was left to chance, nor were any of my concerns dismissed as trivial. On more than one occasion I was contacted at an hour that was more conducive to my time frame, but had to be difficult and challenging for them. Not once was it ever conveyed to me it was burdensome, but rather they were excited to be of assistance.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I don't know where to start. MontaVega Media's enthusiasm was front and center, but so was their attention to detail. Nothing was missed down to the smallest elements. I've dealt with other companies over the years, but none have ever been so detail oriented. I suppose the most impressive feature of their company is their genuine concern for producing the best quality work product.

Are there any areas for improvement?

MontaVega Media is certainly a young company, but I don't think that is a shortcoming. If anything that fuels their desire to become larger over time. No, I see no areas that are in need of improvement.

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

The process of how MontaVega went about creating our videos is one that really stood out. We had an interview where they took the time to get to know us, our story, and what we wanted to achieve. The best part of their process is how they listened to our vision, and the effort they put into making sure they understand the essence of the content we needed.

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

We established a timeline to meet our video deadline. Once MonteVega created the first draft, they allowed plenty of time for review and finalization.

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

We worked together by giving ideas of different bits that would attract more attention for our demographic. Once this was done MonteVega came up with a series of videos and put them together into one large video.
