SEM Dynamics

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I'm the owner of a small law firm.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with SEM Dynamics?

I started the firm from absolute scratch. I wanted to increase visibility and general searchability.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

They provided tips beyond the average SEO company. Not only did they help me with my online presence, but they also helped me select an office location that would affect my ranking. They suggested a URL and several other aspects that were important to my visibility.

One of our major goals was recognition from Google and Google Maps. They explained the Google sandbox, and they connected with Google to get my company recognized as a legitimate business.

What is the team composition?

I work with one key contact and one other team member.

How did you come to work with SEM Dynamics?

I can't remember exactly how I found them. We were both new companies at the time, and they were really easy to talk to. They weren't pushy at all, and I liked our interactions.

How much have you invested with them?

I'm not sure of the exact amount, but I've spent less than $10,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started the collaboration around August 2018. The bulk of their involvement took about six months, followed by another six months of lighter work. I still work with them for maintenance, but I'm pretty satisfied with where the project is now.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

I get some really hot leads, and I'm at the point that I'm attracting too much work. I've partnered with another firm to help with that overflow. I'm getting so many inquiries, and I don't have to worry about analytics at all.

How did SEM Dynamics perform from a project management standpoint?

They're really easy to communicate with, and most of our interaction is through email and occasionally by phone. We meet monthly, and they show me anything I want to see for analytics, graphs, or charts.

What did you find most impressive about them?

I recently got an advertising email from another SEO company that said "Find out why URLs like this one are beating yours," but the link that they cited was mine. That was really reassuring, and I forwarded the email on to SEM Dynamics. They're very clean and precise, and all their reporting is crisp and professional. I never feel like they're trying to sell something, and they're always very positive and flexible. They think about my goals and my budget, and they customize a solution that fits my needs.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I would have recommended a different website for them, but they just created a new site that's very user-friendly. I'm featured on their new site, which is a bonus, and I really don't have anything they should improve.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Be straightforward with your goals and realistic with your budget. They will work with anything, but be open to their suggestions.
