SocialSurge created a new website for our non-profit. Working with the staff to explain what the requirements were, providing some high level thoughts on what we were looking for was very easy. They were able to provide a beautiful site that was easy to navigate and matched what we were looking for. I couldn't believe what was delivered based on the initial discussion of requirements. They were also very good at helping with content. They were easy to work with a delivered a great site in a short amount of time. When we request updates they are completed within 24 hours. It has been a pleasure working with them. I have recommended them to several business owners that require websites. June 28, 2022

Overall Experience: Eric and his team at SocialSurge Marketing provide website hosting and digital marketing consulting services to support our marketing team. After having worked with several agencies in the past, I can tell a tremendous difference in the quality of our website traffic and marketing efforts, now that we are working with Eric and his team. They are very responsive, extremely knowledgeable, and always willing to share creative ideas and help find the best solutions. I have recommended Eric to several of my clients and colleagues already. You are doing amazing work, guys!

Overall Experience: We are a construction company with very minimal experience in the social media/marketing realm. We took a stab internally and just could not get it done to the extent we wanted and needed. Through a mutual connection I got connected with Kevin and Eric about a year ago and they have done an incredible job taking on all social media and marketing for us. It has been an immense help to us over the last year.

Overall Experience: I was impressed with Eric when I first met as he really listened to other people and was very specific and articulate when he spoke. During the past 6 months, he has been very patient accommodating as I struggled to find my footing. Eric has always been prompt, insightful and detailed with his feedback with the micro and provided good perspectives and options with the macro aspects of my work with him. I highly recommend working with Eric and SocialSurge Marketing.

Overall Experience: Eric and Kevin have been working with myself and my partner since our business was just an idea. When we started working on the website together I realized very quickly that if I had tried to create the website myself. We would have ended up with a terrible website at best! Eric and Kevin did an amazing job capturing the look and feel we wanted for our customers when they visited our page. They helped create very specific pages and content for us, that helps separate us from our competition. Eric and Kevin communicated in a timely and professional manner no matter the problem. Whether the website was acting up at 9pm or answering my annoying questions at 7am they respond in a timely fashion with an answer/solution or a plan to find one. Eric and Kevin care so much about their business and you can tell by how they care about their clients businesses. If you are looking for help in this social media driven world. Than Social Surge should be the first and last place you look.

Overall Experience: Working with Surge is like working with an extension of my own marketing team. Not only do they manage my campaigns and budget with the care that I would myself, but they are always looking out for my company's best interest. They really are "in it" with you. Very lucky to be working with them.

Overall Experience: We have been working with SocialSurge Marketing for over a year now, and we could not be happier! They are extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and full of ideas when it comes to all aspects of marketing. They bring a fresh perspective to help us achieve our marketing goals and strategize for the future. SocialSurge Marketing took the time to understand how our company functions and how our sales and marketing departments work together. During our weekly meetings, we discuss current projects, brainstorm, and deep dive into marketing concepts where we feel our knowledge base is lacking. They were more than happy to walk us through step-by-step on how to set something up (campaigns, dashboards, reports, etc.) or they were willing to create and manage it for us. They are a welcomed addition to our marketing team, and we are very pleased with what we’ve learned and executed with them so far. We look forward to continuing our successful relationship with SocialSurge Marketing.

Overall Experience: SocialSurge Marketing helped our small business launch our first website. We are thrilled with the result and process was incredibly smooth. Eric took our vision and brought it to life. We started the process with only bits and pieces of what we envisioned. Eric was very patient with us and really listened to what we wanted. The result was better than what we had imagined with so many ideas added we never thought about before. Eric responded quickly and was very knowledgeable about all things marketing. We are so excited to continue the journey with SocialSurge Marketing as our business grows.
