Pros:

  • Success from lead generation resulted in multiple new business opportunities and keynote speeches.
  • The Marion team communicates very well with our team members. Nothing is lost in translation. We couldn't be happier with our partners at Marion.

Cons:

  • I cannot think of anything that stands out as a negative.
  • We should have been working with them long ago! I have nothing bad to say about the fine folks at Marion.

Overall Experience: I'm part of a very small marketing team for a large corporate company. We have worked with MARION for years now to support our digital marketing needs and well as the build out of our website. Our account rep Danielle has been amazing in every way! Her communication and knowledge have helped us tremendously. She's helped us to create engaging social media content, build out technically informative pages for our website, improve our locations and map functionality and more. We appreciate all of the support from her and the team at MARION!

Overall Experience: I love working with Marion, we have been with them for many years now. Last year we opted to update our website.. this has been an ongoing process, first we updated the look, now we are updating pages. We are now seeing a huge boom in business. I am blown away by the results. Marion has helped us reach new heights that we would have never been able to obtain without their expertise.

Overall Experience: The team at Marion was professional, adaptable and responsive. Our Account Executive was always reachable via either phone or e-mail. In addition, she worked through numerous changes and edits with us until everyone was happy with the final product. No question or issue went unanswered, no matter how small. In addition, there were no hidden fees or charges so the cost was understood up front.
