Feedback summary: 

Odyssey New Media was very impressive in the design and development process. The new website triggered a record number of sales. The project management was extremely effective. Communicative, knowledgeable, and friendly, their team completed everything in a reasonable timeframe. 

The client submitted this review online.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

In early 2019 I was appointed as head of marketing for a printing supplies company called Signzworld. From day one it was abundantly clear that there was a large amount of work to be done to push this company into the modern world. The most important and unavoidable task was to get a new, fully functioning, easy to navigate and conversion focused new website.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Odyssey New Media?

Having witnessed the impressive capabilities of the Odyssey New Media team it was clear that it was worth a conversation with them. Upon speaking to them it was clear that they not only know exactly what they're on about within this field but that they really cared about the quality of their output and the happiness of their client.

For these reasons we tasked them with the design and development of a modern website that meets all of the criteria set in our original brief. Having had the first meeting with Rob and the director of my current company we looked to expand their duties further by looking to utilise their highly endorsed SEO expertise and web management services.

What were your goals for this project?

Our goals were simple. To go from a very poor, barely converting website into a customer / user friendly site that gives the company the best possible chance of showcasing the vast catalogue of products that are available. Phase 2 will be to then improve online visibility of these products and increase the amount of online shelf space that Signzworld currently occupies.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

Odyssey new Media come very highly recommended and I see why. They've received many accolades for their previous works and boast an impressive portfolio with case studies that make it very difficult to choose any other company for the job.

Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.

Initially, Rob had made the trip to visit us at our main offices to discuss the early plans for a new website. We traded idea's based off my original plans of theme colours and what I needed the website to be able to perform. Rob took all this on board making several pages of notes and within a couple of weeks, he had devised a proposal and a plan and again returned to brief both myself and the director.

We were both so impressed we signed off on the development and Rob and his team got to work. We had regular updates and were privy to view the current status on the design via their staging area and I felt comfortable enough to explain if I didn't agree on certain aspects of their design, although that wasn't really too often. Our original website was on a very slow and unsteady server which produced an array of problems. All of which were communicated to us clearly and acted upon immediately. A special mention to their developer Dan, who had solidly worked through many days to try and rectify so many intricate server-based issues.

very They provided us with a new website that exceeded expectations and has already seen sales increase handsomely. There was also a lot of other items that we had not thought of during initial briefing stages that Rob and the team worked tirelessly to add.

What was the team composition?

We mainly corresponded with Rob but he was continually designating development work to the very talented Dan. From our side it was just me in the position of project manager, relaying to Rob any issues and requirements.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?

The website went live at the very end of November 2019 and December 2019 saw the record amount of sales the company has ever seen.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

Very effective. Fantastic communications, Rob is very knowledgable and friendly with an inspiring work ethic. The initial job was completed within a very reasonable time frame considering all of the battles with the old server and hosting.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their work ethic and desire to male sure that we've got exactly what we were after with added benefits.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Nothing springs to mind.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted to increase the sales pipeline through website lead generation.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

A friend recommended them.

Can you go into detail about the services they provided and the scope of the project?

They served in an advisory capacity for the redesign and a third-party vendor did most of the development work. Odyssey New Media created the SEO strategy and implemented with periodic reviews to maximize optimization.

What was the team composition?

We worked with seven people in total, including the founder, our marketing team, our third-party web development vendor.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?

The project has largely been a success, considering it’s always hard to hit targets exactly.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

Our marketing team managed the project. Although Odyssey New Media suggested only using one vendor, we decided to include the other development firm after going through a tender. Using a single-source supplier would have been easier.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They pay close attention to detail and have great subject-matter expertise.

Are there any areas where they can improve?

As a smaller company, they had tighter resources, which required them to prioritize customer needs. As result, the team wasn’t as responsive as we had hoped, but the wait times didn’t detract from the final results.

We hired them to help triple our traffic.

What were your goals for this project?

Our goal was to get page one results for nearly 25 keywords. Even though we are in a niche market, competition for certain keywords was being dominated by a few big brands. We depend on Google rankings for new site visitors, so being able to rank well was imperative to the growth of our station.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I read the reviews on Odyssey and spoke with them directly. I was really impressed with their openness and knowledge.

Describe the project in detail.

I commissioned Odyssey to do keyword research, onsite optimization, content strategy, and SEO.

What was the team composition?

I work with a key director and a member of their team.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any statistics or metrics that speak to the quality of their work and impact of the engagement?

Odyssey has exceeded all of our expectations. We now rank number one for what we consider to be major keywords in our market. As a result, we have enjoyed a significant increase in the number of visitors to our site.

How did the Odyssey New Media perform from a project management standpoint?

They communicate with us at every point. In fact, they’ve kept every promise, doing exactly what they said they would.

What impresses you about the Odyssey New Media?

Odyssey is a company with great integrity. Combine this with their expertise, and you have a winning formula.

Are there any areas for improvement?

I would like them to develop their app building skills, as they are now my partner of choice.
