We consistently have to do the majority of the work to get things done or to get them in even the right ballpark of what we're looking for. Their performance and value-add are not priorities to them -- their priority is very clearly running up the billable time clock. They do not provide strategic value. They are hyper-focused on SEO even though we told them multiple times we don't really care about SEO just yet. To this day, our weekly check-ins are basically just a bland overview of the changes in our SEO numbers from last week (Bueller...? Bueller...?) There's been zero discussion of a social media strategy. Our HubSpot implementation & training with them was haphazard at best. There are two people who show up for every single weekly status meeting and I could not tell you what they do. One seems to just take notes and the other *might* be our project or account manager, but I honestly can't tell. All-in-all, this was a lot of time and money *not* well spent. If we could go back, we would have chosen a different partner.

Our company has been working with them for over a year now with redesign, marketing techniques and overall branding assistance and their expertise makes my life so. much. easier. They work like a machine, but with a human touch. Ah, the best kind of consistency. Everything in their correspondence is personal and consistent, with fast turnaround. I've always known that any concerns and questions would be answered immediately and their meetings online and in-person are always pleasant. Get a chance to drop by their office? Well lucky you, because you'll be treated to walking through one of the coolest offices ever. Not convinced of their prowess? Look at their big name clients and plethora of projects they work on. It's nothing less than impressive however, they do it all without a sales-y pitch: they genuinely want you to succeed and make your business boom. Everyone at BFM puts client requests at the helm while their creative team steers, albeit gently and with great advice. Ultimately, the client will call the shots in design and outcome. You'd be wise to tap into all of their resources because let's face it; if you're paying for it, utilize it. However their pricing and plans are quite reasonable for small businesses (if you are one) and you'd be hard pressed to find a local agency that's willing to go to lengths to make you happy. In conclusion and if you're on the fence, you should definitely dive right into Blue Fountain Media.

This company has fallen. The first time I participated I had a great experience not only with the…read moresubject but with the pay. I thought I was going to have the same experience as one would expect. I did my part yet they refuse to pay in a timely manner. Two weeks is about the normal amount of time to wait for ones incentive yet when it gets into 3 and 4 weeks and then into five weeks it's pretty annoying. I'm so disappointed because the focus groups they have are awesome and the moderators do a great job but they really need to work on their payout times and at least be more communicative with the participants. When one tries to contact the company about payment it's like pulling teeth. Schlesinger group please do better in 2026

The first time I ever heard of Schlesinger it was enthusiastically described to me as "THE BEST!!!"…read moreof all the market research companies. I quickly realized why it earned that moniker once I started participating in their focus groups. They were the most professional, had the friendliest employees, offered the highest incentives, etc. So, in turn I started telling others the same thing and did so for a very long time. Fast forward to this year and Schlesinger gets rebranded, reorganized, re-whatever...to become Sago. I'm actually not sure what all occurred behind the scenes. What I do know is that something changed for the worse and it really became evident after the last market research study I participated in. I was in an online focus group in November with the promise of payment 2-3 weeks later. Right on schedule they notified me via email that my incentive had been added to their "focus group wallet" which is accessed through their website. From there, participants can choose how they want to receive their payment from various types of cards. I chose a virtual visa card. Unlike other market research companies who issue the card instantly upon request, Sago requires that you wait for it to be processed before they send it to you. They state that it can take up to 10 days. But, after more than 2 weeks with my request still pending I started to smell a rat. During that time I sent numerous emails and made several phone calls to their office but got no response. The only thing I heard were crickets! Eventually, I resorted to contacting the BBB to file a complaint (mine was among LOTS of others by the way). Miraculously, the next day my request got processed and my virtual visa card was available. Call me crazy but I don't think that participants should have to jump through hoops just to get the payment they earned. It's unfortunate that this once stellar company is now only THE BEST at being untrustworthy.

A friend told me that this SEO can help me get on top of search pages whenever words related to my business were hit on search engines. I was reluctant... however, my friend was very successful in business so I went out to hire DMH. I followed his suggestion since, hell why not? DMH studied my digital marketing strategy and created a new marketing plan for my business. They had to totally revamp my site. Each web page design was changed and I was ecstatic with the results. Their graphic designing services were incredible. They didn't use generic templates which was what my previous website was made of. They made a customized design in photoshop of my homepage which they converted in HTML which google loves. Another plus in my book is that my website was optimized for mobile devices alike laptops and desktops. Since my websites were customized, they ranked in the top 10 of Google after a few months. They know how to find the right keywords. I think this is called keyword research. My site was ranking for those words I wanted, which is the name of the game right? and the website design was fantastic! I don't know what to say. I really want to thank them so much. DMH is definitely my go-to for anything I need related to my business's online presence !

My business needed dynamic web pages that were customer-friendly. DMH helped me create a full digital marketing plan for my biz and they were unbelievably good at it. They gave me the website design service I needed and implemented it with ease. I didn't know a company could do all this stuff... Digital Media Hero had the whole package. I didn't need to go to an expensive media or advertising agency. As an online marketing service provider, Digital Media Hero also helped me implement a social media campaign which was a huge success! Facebook marketing was a piece of cake. I was also able to bring in more customers through the website that they have developed for me. Their web designer and developers were really great. I had a good website design that was fit for the theme of my business which was developed in photoshop which I LOVED because I didn't want to use a template and wanted a unique look. Each of the webpages looked really good and are useful too. The best part about Digital Media Hero was... the part wherein they were able to listen to everything I wanted about the customized social networking campaign. They even recommended good points when it comes to my online web presence. They clearly made an effort to satisfy what my business needed and they've done a very good job at it. It's seriously an A++ for Digital Media Hero and I'm happy I chose to be one of the businesses they can help with their digital marketing services.
