eMarketing Concepts - Malibu, California

House I. A. B.

I highly recommend E Marketing Concepts to any small business who wants to improve the profile of their website and internet marketing outreach! Their high level of Customer Service and attention to detail are unmatched and make this company a real pleasure to work with. Our Project Manager, Niel Garcia, worked tirelessly to accomplish every task on time and definitely went the extra mile. We could not be happier with E Marketing Concepts and plan to be working with them for a long time to come.

eMarketing has been helping us with an SEO project over the course of the last few months. Our project manager Niel, and all of his colleagues, have been doing a tremendous job of sending progress reports and keeping us in the loop regarding their progress. I'd recommend their services to anyone looking to optimize their presence online.

I would not recommend this company. We paid them premium price for 2 companies for 13 months only to find our that nothing that was supposed to get done was. We started the process to go with a new company and they wanted our Google Analytical information...when we tried to get that from Emarketing we found out they never even set it up at all. So for the past year they took our money but didn't give what promised. This was just one of many items that they were contractually paid to provide and they didn't. Every time I try to contact them I get the runaround. Steer Clear!

eMarketing Concepts has helped me quite a bit though the years. They take the complicated, difficult aspects of SEO and make them so simple for me. My rankings have consistently been at the top of search engines. I'm very happy with my SEO results. I recommend eMarketing Concepts to anyone who wants to improve their SEO.

Finding a good marketing company is a lot like looking for a good relationship. Takes a few attempts, and you'll probably have a disaster or two along the way. But when you do finally find it, the trouble was worth it. More than one "SEO service" tried to take our money and run, and we had others that were alright, but not quite what we wanted. But it looks like the search is over! We're happy with what eMarketing Concepts has done.

We expected to be using their SEO services in the short term, but they've honestly done such a good job, we've decided to keep them on. They really give us more flexibility to focus on our product, while helping us get it out there in front of potential customers.

I was solicited by an eMarketing Concepts telemarketer during October 2015. I had 0 interest in his company's services. He transferred me to a senior sales exec who gave me a special trial offer of service for 2 months at the price of 1 month. Against my better judgment, I signed up for a Pinterest campaign for an established retail business and a Facebook campaign for a new separate business. The senior sales exec assured me that the advertising would generate new leads for both businesses, the campaign managers would change the ads to get results, and I can end service on a monthly basis.

The manager for the Pinterest campaign was a veteran worker who created Pinterest boards with no problem, but since there were no sales I suspended the campaign when the 2 month trial ended.

I was initially paired with two managers for the Facebook campaign who were both new to the company. They both took vacations within a week of being assigned to my account, didn't listen to my input, didn't provide me with a mock ad to approve, and ran low quality ads without my approval. Before my 2 month trial ended, I was paired with a third manager who was one of the most experienced on staff.

The third manager did a much better job than the first 2 managers. I wound up keeping the Facebook campaign going for another 3 months, but there were no results even though we tried different pictures, verbiage, new audiences, etc. The effect was the same as rearranging deck chairs on a sinking Titanic.

The third Facebook manager also sold me on some minor services to tweak a business website like adding home page content (which I edited heavily) and a Word Press blog that I didn't need at all.

During the final month, I was billed for an incorrect amount. To avoid refunding me, the third manager tried offering services like overpriced website blog posts and press releases but I declined. After 3 weeks, the third manager couldn't tell me when I would be refunded. I received a refund on the day my credit card company processed a charge back.

The senior sales exec was very smooth and reasonable-sounding. I regret listening to her. She said eMarketing is a major online marketer that will do great things for the 2 businesses I wanted to promote. Both the senior sales exec and the third Facebook campaign manager said on the one hand they will generate a lot of online exposure that will lead to sales and on the other hand they can't guarantee results. They can only perform work for their clients.

The Pinterest campaign required work, which I didn't have the time to do myself and I was unfamiliar with the Pinterest platform. The Facebook campaign charged me for ads that I could have developed myself without paying eMarketing a monthly fee to work for me.

Since I hadn't tried Pinterest and Facebook advertising before, I decided to give eMarketing a try.

Unfortunately, all I did was waste my time and money.

If businesses have time and in house staff to develop their own online social media marketing campaigns, they're better off doing so rather than paying third parties to put out ads with no results.

eMarketing offered me free SEO service for 6 months in an effort to make amends for my dissatisfaction with its social media marketing. After the nature of the temporary and permanent back links were explained to me, though, I decided to pass on the offer. As I understood things, the temporary links with more business data were more effective at promoting a website’s online presence while the more permanent links which are picture based weren’t as effective at capturing the attention of Google search robots.

I’ve learned a few things about online advertising. Online advertising can only attempt to increase a business’ web presence and/or potential consumer awareness. Every form of online advertising I’ve tried hasn’t generated nearly enough leads to pay for the expense much less make a profit. I’ll advertise myself from now on.

We have been VERY happy seeing how our website improved. I was hesitant to spend on external SEO before, but my partners got me to try it, and it was a good investment. We're growing more already with all the leads and conversions we've had. Special thanks to Preston, and thanks everyone at eMarketing Concepts.
