Plus, their SEO (Search Engine Optimization) work also helped my store the Classic Rock Custom & Designer Jewelry rank on Page 1 of Google search.

She also took all my videos which was an engaging way of drawing more people to the site. Ida developed all my Marketing, Advertising and Social Media. She created outdoor signage, flyers, blogging, ads, and social media plus digital marketing that was sent out to our customer email list, . As a creative director, Ida's eye for design and amazing copywriting gave my brand a more upscale, professional feel which drew more people into the store. She knew that I Love to Teach People (I used to be a high school science teacher) so she encouraged me to do videos on YouTube! I love to give my customers free tutorials through my Diamond, Colored Gemstone, and Pearl Classes. Ida's video series really captured the essence of my store and how I wanted my customers learn.

I can't rely 100% on my own limited experience. David Mitroff (the man in the picture) was extremely generous with his time over the phone. I told him abt a potentially risky sales contract I was considering. He took at least 20 minutes to go over with me how I can mitigate that risk and what I should do to prepare for negotiation. He did not have to do that. But he wanted to make sure I didn't get scr3w3d over. He didn't want to see me fail. For that reason, Piedmont Avenue will be the first place I come to once I'm ready for a deeper strategic conversation and more hands-on assistance. Will update once I have more to say. Thanks David!

In fact over the last 10 years I've only been picked four times. I was most recently picked for an in person study at their Sunnyvale location. The staff are always friendly and professional. They offer a variety of complementary snacks and drinks before and after the study begins. This last study was 90 minutes long and at the end they give you a $150 master card gift card, which I thought was very generous. It's worth filling out the surveys because you never know when they will call you to confirm your participation. Overall it was a very positive experience.

As broker/owner of a leading boutique real estate firm, my advice for Sellers is to explore the…read moredifference between a home's value and a home's worth. The best and only way to charge a premium above fair market value is to focus on lifestyle. Good listings sell homes. Excellent listings sell lifestyle. To rise above the crucible of competition, our listing photography must reach beyond professional grade, and be truly epic. We need to reach Buyers viscerally, and every detail matters. Going on 20 years in this industry, I have rarely come across another outfit who grasps this as fully as Aerial Canvas. When Aerial Canvas came to our market, I was instantly struck by their amazing talent pool. They hire best-of-breed photographers, drone pilots, 3D tour experts, film editors, web developers, and production managers, etc. They are so far ahead of the competition, their work shines like a beacon. Beyond shooting inspired photography, with great lighting, angles, equipment, and style... Aerial Canvas also delivers a complete set of media deliverables that add value to my presentation, including a turnkey, property-specific, consumer-facing website. The site is organized so elegantly, and so powerfully, that I can confidently send it to anyone, for any use-case, and trust with 100% confidence that they will be wowed. Their back-end services are friendly, intuitive, instructive, and always available. Virtually no tech knowledge is required to edit the site by myself. And it even comes with analytics I can show clients that measure my impact. I cannot recommend Aerial Canvas highly enough. If you are looking to build your brand, let these guys take your business to the next level.

I want our prospective clients to feel like the studio is an extension to their home. It's' not just a gym. It's a feeling. Now that my studio is complete I thought it would be a great time to capture its energy. I have taken many photos in which I have posted on social media for the world to see but since I am not equipped with the proper equipment I can't highlight the things I want highlighted. Such as a virtual tour of my studio and aerial photos. Its a fact that today we live in a mobile world therefore many prospects do a lot more of their shopping online then they did in the past. For this reason I reached out to Aerial Canvas. I initially was interviewed by Adrian who is probably the best example of customer service I have ever come across. Adrian introduced me to Colby. We started by talking about my business; who we are, what we're all about, and why I'm so excited to do this photo shoot. We discuss the look I'm hoping to achieve, shots I would like to be highlighted, drone footage, the works. Then we worked on a shot list; Colby suggested I create a Pinterest board to share with him or to simply share photos/videos that inspire me from Instagram. We talked about everything I would need to feel completely confident that he had a great sense of what I wanted the day of your shoot.  The virtual tour and aerial photography Colby did for me allows my prospective clients to visually respond to what they see in my location. Some fall in love with the high ceilings and space, some fall in love with the line of equipment we have while others may fall in love with the mere fact that we have a clean bathroom with a shower. Let's face it, sometimes hiring a pro is just the right thing to do. If you'd like to save yourself some time and maybe even money, consider hiring a professional photographer like Colby from Aerial Canvas to come in and knockout your photos. He's attentive to detail, has professional's eye, and easy to work with. Best of all, it's one less thing you will need to do. FIT SF Personal Training San Mateo
