WebFX is very attentive to our needs, and they can shift focus mid-month without hiccups.

Whenever some campaigns are working better than others, they make adjustments and rearrange our budget to get the most ROI.

We have a Zoom meeting with WebFX once a month, and we constantly communicate via email in between. Having two points of contact makes everything easier and streamlined. Although most of our collaboration has been virtual, Colleen and Katie have visited us on the farm.
