Be warned of doing business with this guy…read more Before telling you why I rated him so low, I'll tell you how you should do business with him should you still choose to. First, I'm a marketing consultant and I used Art a couple years ago to build an APP for one of my clients and it turned out fine. No real issues. But this most recent time, it ended up similar to Roxanne's (who also left a 1 star rating) experience. So, if you choose to do business with him, this is how you should do it. Actually this is how I would usually do business with vendors but because I had a positive experience with him the first time, and we became "friends," I let my guard down. First, have a signed contract with deliverables and timelines. Second, DO NOT pay him his entire fee before he finishes the project. Otherwise you have zero leverage for him to complete the project as desired. Pay him a portion up front to get started (no more than half). Then pay the last portion when he delivers to your satisfaction. Sometimes I'll pay a third up front, the second third after completion of the first portion of the project as agreed upon and then the last third upon completion. So, what happened to me this time was that back in April 2019, I engaged Art to build an APP for one of my clients. Paid him half up front and he created a mock up to show my client. Everything seemed fine. In the first of May I sent him the edits that my client and I had and he said he needed the rest of the money to publish on iTunes and Google Play. I wasn't comfortable with that but he said he needed the extra money for the fees that iTunes and Google Play had. So we agreed upon a lesser amount that was only about $300 short of his entire fee. Looking back, I should not have paid him even that much. One month, two months and three months went by and many excuses of why the APP was not published. He said it was one technical issue after another. I told him, I'm tired of waiting and so is my client. So, I suggested we discontinue and asked for a refund. He refused of course. The beginning of July the APP was finally publised on iTunes and Google Play but it still needed to put in my clients content. At this point it was just a mock up and was not useful. Days and weeks went by with no changes. He continued to say, "I'll get it done tonight" "I'll get it done this weekend. (all conversations are on text) Then he said he was having legal issues with his ex-wife. Well, August was approaching and I'm finally fed up, so I tell him if things aren't fixed by the end of the week, then the deal is done and I want a full refund. No response. So between the first of April and first of August, no finished product delivered. 5 months! Way too long for this simple APP which was going to be primarily made up of webpage feeds from the website. The website was built for the same client in 3 months. By another vendor (Standout Marketing) who I've used for most of my clients who has been highly reliable and does great work! He does great graphics, websites, and video work. So after receiving no response from my last demand, I go on his Facebook page and I see that he left for the Phillipines with a friend to go see his new girlfriend. (he didn't seemed too stressed about his ex-wife) I asked for a full refund with no response. Now considering my options. Of course as the other reviewer, Roxy, says, he doesn't have a listed, real address. It's just a mailbox. But I know I can get his home address pretty easy. It's just a matter of how bad I want to pursue this. The sad thing is I thought we were friends but he has not made any attempt to make this right. I would normally walk away from something like this and chalk it up to a lesson learned but seeing that he did a similar thing to someone else, made me think I should warn people of how to do business with him if they still choose to. So go in with eyes wide open when dealing with Art.

I paid for 72 units for printing, though have only fulfilled 48 units for printing to date.

I've called, emailed and texted and have yet to receive a response and/or refund. Ignacio was more than eager to take my money for the initial order, where now I'm being outright ignored when I'm due money back. I'm extremely dissatisfied and disappointed with this business and it's unethical practices and would advise all prospective customers to take their business elsewhere.

I started running Google ads with them 2 months ago and was scared because it could make/break me and I'm so thankful I trusted.

They even took time out of their day to help me game plan how to increase my ad spend in correlation with transitioning to my business full time.
