““If you’re not doing inbound marketing today, get on it. It works. SmartBug ® has been instrumental in implementing the process. If you want to succeed, hire a partner like SmartBug who can own the process for you. Speed of execution is critical and SmartBug fit the bill and delivered on it. They get it done right the first time around. Why try and reinvent the wheel yourself?””

““We would be nowhere in inbound marketing without the partnership we have with SmartBug Media,” said Wilkins. “We needed someone that knew the space and that could learn the ins and outs of our business. SmartBug Media has consistently succeeded in both areas.””

““We saw new leads within the first month of working with SmartBug Media,” said Wilkins. “We now have hundreds of leads and our sales process has changed to accommodate the surplus of knowledge we’ve obtained about the leads. The conversation is now ‘I noticed you downloaded this e-book. How can I help you solve that problem?’ rather than going in blind.””

““It is just like having someone on our staff and on our payroll,” said Wilkins. “SmartBug has been able to see what needs to be done, and execute on it effectively. The results prove that.””

““After speaking with Ryan Malone, it was clear SmartBug Media ® was the right fit for EON,” said Wilkins. “He just got it. Then I heard that the team consisted of past HubSpot employees, and that further solidified my confidence in the team.””

““Ultimately, I realized that the approach HubSpot was taking worked on me,” said Wilkins. “I was convinced that I needed the software and the right strategy, so I knew the same approach would work for my company too.””

“If you’re not doing inbound marketing today, get on it. It works. If you want to succeed, hire a partner like SmartBug.”

““Now we actually have a marketing funnel! Together we’ve defined who qualifies as subscribers, MQLs, and SQLs and can refocus our foundation-setting efforts to working with our sales qualified leads," said Maya. "That part is really exciting!””

““SmartBug doesn’t feel like an agency—it feels like they are part of our team," said Maya. "SmartBug has a great team that works really hard for us and we have a great connection. You can tell SmartBug is really invested in how well our company is doing.””

“Their HubSpot CMS Hub website design partnership enabled us to be self-sufficient and leveraged their success and experience to provide us some really useful guidance during the project.”

“SmartBug ® has been great. From wireframes to design and development to production, they came in on budget and on time,”

“We’d definitely recommend SmartBug Media. They took a basic concept, layered inbound marketing best practices on it, and brought it to life.”

“It’s about the overall picture,” Eichinger says. “You’ve got to be right with inbound marketing in so many ways. If you aren’t taking it in a passionate direction, you’re just going to throw money to the wind. SmartBug added value to our whole equation.”

“Most businesses just don’t have the resources and time to manage content well. SmartBug came in and, from the first piece forward, did their due diligence and understood our product. They took the time to create quality content in a way that’s engaging to people. And that’s a critical aspect in making an inbound marketing strategy successful.”

““ Since partnering with SmartBug Media, GTN has seen a significant increase in our visibility and credibility in the marketplace. We have been featured in several top-tier publications and industry magazines, which has enabled us to reach new audiences and increase our share of voice in the marketplace. Additionally, their work on refining our messaging and developing new story ideas has helped position us as a true thought leader in our industry,"”

““There is no company on the face of the earth—not just in the marketing world, but in general—that is as organized as SmartBug,” Harper says. “They’re a machine, but they also have a people aspect to it. I know that when I send a task or ask a question, it will get done and I won’t have to worry about it anymore, which wasn’t the case with our other agencies.””

“They understand us, bring new ideas and solutions, and know our preferences.”

“SmartBug’s attention to detail, quality writing, and knowledge of content publishing has made all the difference.”

“The best part of our partnership with SmartBug is seeing just how much our traffic has grown in just two years. It is clear our SEO and marketing strategy is spot on.”

“The team at SmartBug made me feel welcome and continues to educate me on the digital marketing space. I trust their guidance—it’s backed with data and experience and results! The best part is that the team is easy to work with and feels like an extended part of the APP family. They listen to our needs and our feedback regarding our industry and customers, and they present fresh ideas. It’s an invaluable partnership.”
