Savage Global Marketing

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the marketing manager within a yacht company. We do metal fabrication, welding, marine plumbing, and valve testing.

What challenge were you trying to address with Savage Global Marketing?

We wanted to get our name out there more — we have three locations and wanted to grow globally. Our ads had to get out there in our areas and surrounding areas.

What was the scope of their involvement?

They’ve created multiple commercials for us and have helped to boost our ads on Facebook, Instagram, and other social media platforms. I’m able to ask them for whatever she needs.

What is the team composition?

I mostly work with 3–4 people currently, but I’ve interacted with up to 10.

How did you come to work with Savage Global Marketing?

Our CEO knows their CEO. We’ve doubled in size over the past year and were in need of a larger marketing firm, and Savage was our number one choice.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent about $20,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We’ve been working together since September 2021.

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

Their videography is very good. Our commercials turned out wonderful. Everyone loves them. We go over all the ads every month or every other week to review how many people have seen it, how many clicks we’ve gotten from our landing page, etc. Savage has shown results and their value.

Our top goal was to build a better customer base. We’re very well known in South Florida, but because we’ve opened several shops in the past year, it’s nice to have different ads for our three different locations.

How did Savage Global Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?

We communicate over email, text messages, and phone calls.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They’re very easygoing and easy to talk to. Any time I have a question, they answer within an hour. Savage is fast. informative, and helpful in every single way.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I don’t believe so. They have such a big team that, no matter what I ask, they always have someone to answer the question in a timely manner. I have no issues with them.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

What they say is a great selling point in everything. They’re good at what they do. I 100% think people should work with them.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the president of a sports handicapping company, and we provide services to people who legally bet on sports.

What challenge were you trying to address with Savage Global Marketing?

We needed someone to help us grow our Youtube channel, audience, and overall digital presence.

What was the scope of their involvement?

I hired Savage Global Marketing to handle my Google AdWords and Facebook accounts, as well as our SEO and PPC efforts.

What is the team composition?

I mainly work with Joseph (Account Manager), Heather (Graphic Designer), Santiago (CTO), a sales representative, and a tech lead.

How did you come to work with Savage Global Marketing?

I reached out to about 6–7 companies and Savage Global Marketing was extremely prompt in responding — they got back to me on a Saturday evening, which was quite impressive. They explained the process clearly and everything moved on from there.

How much have you invested with them?

So far, we’ve invested around $10,000–$15,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

Our ongoing partnership started in July 2021.

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

The only metric I would share is how successful they are in PPC advertising — a lot of my colleagues can’t even make money with PPC, spending close to $20 per lead, while we were only spending around $9–$10 per lead in our prime. 

How did Savage Global Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?

They’ve helped me bring in good clients so I’m quite confident in my partnership with Savage Global Marketing.

It’s a hard business, and for them to hop in and generate high-quality leads and do something they’ve never really done is really impressive.

We typically communicate through email.

What did you find most impressive about them?

I like the fact that we have multiple points of contact from their team, so there’s always someone available to communicate the changes and updates I want to make.

They treat me the same right now as they did almost a year ago, and I’ve never dealt with any company that provided me with this level of customer service.

Are there any areas they could improve?

There were a couple of requests at the beginning that took a little bit of time to fulfill, but everything has improved since then.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I would advise starting the partnership focusing on one project, which should be about Google.

They’re experts when it comes to Google marketing, and I just think it’s a really good starting point for the relationship.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I'm the marketing manager for a legal association.

What challenge were you trying to address with Savage Global Marketing?

We wanted to revamp our website and get into Google Ads, so we hired Savage Global.

What was the scope of their involvement?

Savage Global broke into two teams, one for content and another for designing a website. I began working with the content team to figure out what important topics we were interested in having materials written for. We then provided the web design team with images and relevant information around the structure.

After that, we created a Google Ads account. Savage Global asked us what our budget was and how we wanted to split it across the type of ads that we were interested in running. The team created a landing website on WordPress for us as well as a phone tracking system.

What is the team composition?

I was in constant contact with three different team leaders, two of whom were spearheading the content team while the other led the web design group.

How did you come to work with Savage Global Marketing?

Savage Global was handed off to me right after they signed the contract. From what I can remember, there were a couple of other competing agencies that we had looked into, but Savage Global’s portfolio stood out and was really nice. The matched the style we were going for.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent about $30,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked with them from March–August 2021.

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

Going into this project, we really wanted to get the website up and running before a huge court case. Our goal was to make sure that we had our best foot forward, and we definitely got the website done right on time. 

The ads are a bit more complicated to measure since, for many reasons, it's very competitive in the legal field and it costs a lot per click. We're keeping an open mind as to what the metrics might look like. However, we’re quite happy with the quality of their work and with the results that we've seen so far.

How did Savage Global Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?

I was getting bi-weekly reports from them and we were in constant contact through email.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Savage Global took direction really well. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

There was a little bit more that we had to provide from our end since we couldn’t really expect a marketing agency to understand highly detailed legal information. That was fine, though, and not really something that they could’ve controlled.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

They run a pretty tight ship so be sure to provide them with as much detail as possible around what you’re looking to improve upon.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the principal of Synergy Industrial Partners, and we’re an industrial real estate advisory firm.

What challenge were you trying to address with Savage Global Marketing?

The challenge we were trying to address was to create a website, that’s tailored to a seasoned company that’s been in the industry for 20 years. We wanted to keep it unique and more of a boutique firm, so it was also figuring out how to put together the best design.

What was the scope of their involvement?

Initially, I painted a picture for Savage Global Marketing for what I wanted to do and how I wanted to be perceived. Then, we went over Savage Global Marketing’s packages and services with their design and development team. After that, we went through the content process with their content provider, where they showed me different designs which they were very meticulous and detailed about.

What is the team composition?

We worked with about six people, and our main point of contact was Santiago (CTO).

How did you come to work with Savage Global Marketing?

I did some research online and found their website. Their website, the work they’ve done, and their presence stood out in the marketplace. It felt very aggressive, detail-oriented, and the fact that the president of the company met with me originally was very intriguing. No matter how small or big the job is, they were always on point.

How much have you invested with them?

We probably spent around $7,000–$10,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from September–December 2020.

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

My colleagues and people that I’ve worked with for over 20 years such as clients and friends, said that the website looked very clean, simple, and to the point, which is what I always wanted.

How did Savage Global Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?

I would say they performed great from a project management standpoint.

What did you find most impressive about them?

I was impressed with their attention to detail. Their competitors would say they could do a better job, but Savage Global Marketing just did it differently.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I think they did a great job.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I think the fact that the owner would meet with you not only to share his knowledge of his experience, but also give you guidance on how to build your brand and website. I believe that's critical for the relationship.

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the VP of Marketing for a family entertainment company.

For what projects/services did your company hire , and what were your goals?

Our website was outdated and not easy to manage on the backend, we needed an up to date website.

Easy to work with and within budget.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

Too early to tell in regards of analytics but it's much easier to manage on the back end in most instances.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

Very easy.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

They were willing to meet halfway and didn't get frustrated with our lack of knowledge.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Maybe more of a timeline.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the founder of Nature Gains LLC, an e-commerce wellness company.

What challenge were you trying to address with Savage Global Marketing?

I was looking for a partner that could create content for my website and manage my Amazon account.

What was the scope of their involvement?

They create content about one of our hormone products and manage my Amazon account. They wrote about a bunch of different topics including recent studies and how people can use our product. Each post was original and they never repeated the same content.

I was really happy with their services, so I hired them for SEO as well. After conducting research and analyzing our competition, we realized that the market for hormone-based products was really saturated. Instead, we decided to market as a healthy plant-based steroid.

They also recommended that we use testimonials to attract traffic. I reached out to bodybuilders to promote our product.

What is the team composition?

I work directly with Christopher (CEO).

How did you come to work with Savage Global Marketing?

I found them on Clutch. I chose them because they were half the price of another company I considered.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent between $10,000–$50,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in August 2020 and the work is ongoing.

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

My partner is more familiar with SEO and he thinks they’re doing a very good job. I was surprised by how much content they were able to write. Every week, they create informative articles that rank highly on Google. We consistently earn more links back to our site, which has positively impacted sales.

Since they started managing our Amazon account, we’ve seen the number of sales we make increase by 5–6 a day. Overall, we’re really excited about that growth.  

How did Savage Global Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?

I usually contact them via email. I’ve built a strong working relationship with Christopher, so we text each other every now and then.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Christopher is very involved. He has provided a lot of ideas that have helped me grow my business. At the beginning of the project, we considered PPC, but they didn’t push me in that direction. I appreciated that they kept my budget in mind so I didn’t have to spend money unnecessarily.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I’ve very happy with them.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Focus more on SEO than PPC. Over time, it can help you attract organic traffic to the website and saves you money in the long-run.

I’m the owner of a real estate agency.

What challenge were you trying to address with Savage Global Marketing?

We work primarily with three teammates, including Mr. Savage (CEO) and Santiago (Software Development Project Manager).

We spent about $10,000.

They worked on the website development from January–June 2020. The team is still doing design and making updates.

We’re very happy with their work. They also maintained our ranking, which was very important.

How did Savage Global Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?

Santiago was truly exceptional. He was responsive, easy to work with, creative, and capable. We did a lot of conference calls where we could see the website together. We also communicated via email. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

The end result and their responsiveness were outstanding. It was a smooth and positive experience and it was reflected in the high quality. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

We initially worked with Mr. Savage, and we would’ve loved for him to be more involved during the process. It was delegated to Santiago, who did a good job, but sometimes there was a disconnect.

We wanted to work with Savage Global Marketing because Mr. Savage was very impressive in the beginning, but then he wasn’t involved. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

What they liked about working with us was that we gave them in-depth details of what we wanted, which made the process great.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

We've worked with Savage Global Marketing since 2015.

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

Ultimately, we wanted to get more traffic to our website. Their efforts help us to achieve that goal. The paid social media campaign only ran for one week, but I already saw more traffic coming to the website. We’ve received positive feedback on their work. They have the technical expertise needed to support our website.

How did Savage Global Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?

Savage Global Marketing uses a dashboard that’s synced with Google Analytics, which I also review. Their team’s flexible. Given that they’re a small company, their processes aren’t rigid. They customize procedures to our needs. Their team's responsive and available.

What did you find most impressive about them?

What sets them apart is their wide range of marketing capabilities. Anything from branding to design work, they can help. Our focus is fairly narrow, but their team has the capabilities to work across multiple different marketing functions.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Their team could continue to evolve their processes and their organization.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Meet with them early and often. Be as clear with your objectives as possible.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I am the owner of Prime Contractors, a general contractor.

What challenge were you trying to address with Savage Global Marketing?

We wanted to have a new website. We had a mom-and-pop website that I had created a few years back, and we needed something more robust.

What was the scope of their involvement?

We pretty much scrapped the entire website and Savage Global Marketing built something from the ground up for us. They made it a much more professional website where everything transitioned nicely like a big company, and they built our services page. 

As a contractor, we like to showcase our work, so the team put that together and showcased the work that we do, which was one of the main concerns we had.  They also wrote all the content for the website.

What is the team composition?

We’ve worked with about five teammates, and we also have a project manager.

How did you come to work with Savage Global Marketing?

We are in Fort Lauderdale and we were looking online for reputable marketing companies. Savage Global Marketing popped up with good reviews. We had seen on Clutch that they were previously rated, which was one of the factors that led to our decision.

How much have you invested in them?

We’ve spent over $5,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

The project started around December 2019, and we are still working with them.

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

We got our final website back yesterday for comments and it looks fantastic. They helped organize our wireframes and made it look like a professional website. 

It is much cleaner and much easier for users who are looking for our services to be able to maneuver through it. I think the team also did a phenomenal job with content writing.

How did Savage Global Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?

They are fantastic, and they communicate well. The team always lets us know at what stage they are, and they constantly following up. Savage Global Marketing does everything digitally so we get the proofs through their portal. It’s very seamless, to be honest.

We communicate via phone, text, and email. For the website design and commenting, they have an online tool where I can log in and put my comments in so that they can address them.

What did you find most impressive about them?

The most impressive aspect is that Savage Global Marketing was able to understand our concept and image we wanted to show after meeting with us and discussing the image our brand wanted to portray, They also put in their two cents on how to further improve it and how to further appeal to our customer base, which is what really makes them stand out.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, not that I can think of.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Make sure you act quickly. I tended to take a little bit of time reviewing the documents and the proofs that they had sent me. If you want a fast and flawless process, make sure that you don’t fall behind on the review process and commenting.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m a self-employed real estate professional with my own escort. I operate under one of the largest brokerages in the US. I buy, sell, and consult in matters of luxury residential real estate, for the most part.

What challenge were you trying to address with Savage Global Marketing?

I was looking to improve my online presence and personal branding. I wanted to control my online reputation and create an image that was consistent with my brand. I needed to do so in the most affordable manner possible, without compromising on the quality and image that I’d be presenting to the digital landscape.

What was the scope of their involvement?

In the manner I have already worked with them, Savage Global Marketing did web building. They made my website mobile-friendly and SEO-rich. Based on my satisfaction with those services, I’ll be re-engaging them for additional marketing services for a newer website. I want them to handle the SEO as well as digital and targeted marketing, because they’re great at that and the most affordable option that I am aware of in this market.

What is the team composition?

This was a two-person project.

How did you come to work with Savage Global Marketing?

I went to school with the proprietor Chris (CEO), and I've kept in touch via social media. He is a sounding board for any questions I have in the marketing space. I was originally going to work with someone else for this new project I’m taking on. After speaking with Chris, I understood that those people were overcharging me for the same marketing services Chris would provide for a much more reasonable amount.

How much have you invested with them?

Going forward, I’ll be spending $700 each month on digital marketing.

What is the status of this engagement?

We began working together in Q4 2017, and it’s ongoing.

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

They’ve helped me generate qualified leads for my target of high net worth individuals. It’s not about the quantity, but more so the quality. It’s hard to quantify their results because people will Google you no matter what, and it’s binary; they’re either going to work with you, or they won’t. However, I’ve gotten positive feedback on my online presence multiple times, and that’s all accredited to their work.

I actually just recommended them to a Mercedes garage that I go to but had trouble finding online. The owner lacks an online reputation and could really use SEO services. I connected them, and I believe they’re now in discussions.

How did Savage Global Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?

I deal with Chris and his number two. It’s just a direct relationship with Chris, who is then supported by his team.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their knowledge, expertise, and ability to get things turned around quickly with no-nonsense stand out. I’m never led to believe something that’s not true; Chris tells me what I’m going to get the most value out of. I value their expertise and consultation. I hold Chris’s opinion in high regard, and I know he knows his space. I’ve watched him grow this business, and I continue to seek him out as a sounding board and an expert. I’m continuing to work with him because not only does he know what he’s talking about, but I can trust him to provide services at the best possible price, where he still makes a profit and I come away with what I need. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

I’m sure he has some internal goals to spread and grow, but there’s nothing that comes to mind directly in terms of areas of improvement. 

Any advice for potential customers?

Do your research and talk to other service providers first. Get numbers, quotes, agreements, and all of that from the more expensive, reputable, bigger names, and then go to Chris and ask what he’ll charge for the same service. You’ll be impressed. If you’re educated in the process, you’ll recognize the value more clearly.
