"What stood out the most was how thorough and strategic the entire approach has been."

Working with Straight North was an incredible experience from start to finish! When I started looking for web designers, I narrowed it down to four companies, and Straight North was the only one who really took the time to get to know me, our business, and why our goals matter.

That personal connection made all the difference.

Once we got started, I was blown away by the thought and detail that went into every part of the process. What stood out the most was how open and receptive the team was to my feedback. I truly felt like a part of the process, not just another customer.

Our new website is absolutely stunning and perfectly captures who we are and what our brand stands for. I couldn't be happier with the finished website or with the experience of working with Straight North.

Building a great website is truly a collaborative effort, and l've learned that the more you put in, the more you get out. I encourage anyone working with Straight North, or any design team to be open, share your vision, and really take the time to engage in the process. The result will be worth it, I promise!

Thank you, Straight North, for an amazing experience and a website that we're so proud of!

“BA Sciences has had the pleasure of collaborating with Straight North for nearly four years now, and we cannot praise their services enough. Our organic traffic has seen a significant increase over this time, as well as the conversion rate of form fills. Before Straight North, we were struggling to find a trustworthy SEO company that could effectively guide us in the right direction. Since partnering with Straight North, we have been able to increase our visibility and standing within Google drastically.

Recently, Straight North completed a website redesign for us and we could not be happier with the results. The website was flawlessly compiled and organized to improve our users' experience. The team worked tirelessly to meet our tight deadline and the site came out beautifully.

A special thank you to our multiple project managers and website team at Straight North - Greg, Katie, Huma, and the many others involved in this project. We truly appreciate your efforts in helping our business thrive. If you are looking for a reliable and efficient SEO company, look no further than Straight North. 5 stars all the way!"

Straight North has been a fantastic addition to our marketing team. The communication and reporting is far above any we have worked with previous, and they have always taken the time to explain things and answer our questions as they come.

We have been working with Straight North for a few months now. They have communicated consistently, provided us with feedback and answered all of our questions. Justin and the rest of the team have been great! We have noticed our phones are ringing more often and we believe it's due to the SEO results that Straight North has helped us achieve.

We are nearly 1 year into using Straight North’s services. Since the beginning, our relationship has been extremely collaborative and educational. Straight North has never upsold services. Strategies are personalized to our dental clinic’s needs. We’ve enjoyed seeing their experience with dental clinics and other businesses as that diverse background offers multiple points of view. Communication is always timely, and Juls has been an absolute treasure to work with. We are excited about continuing this relationship, and our year 1 results have been more than we expected.

Greg and the Straight North team are a great addition to our companies. As a solo-marketing manager marketing for three unique brands, their insights into technical SEO and PPC management help me to manage all the other aspect of our marketing stack. Kinda like an easy button - I hit it, and they can take on the things I can't get to. Their GoNorth platform is very helpful to managing the analytics from multiple brands.

We've been working with Straight North for the past few months. Greg and his team have proven to be a valuable addition to our online marketing efforts thus far. In the short time we've been working with them, our PPC campaign has flourished. Communication between Greg and his team has been excellent. Looking forward to a continued partnership with Straight North.

The company I work for has had an incredible experience working with StraightNorth, our go-to marketing agency. They took on the challenging task of not only boosting, but creating our SEO strategy and managing our ad accounts across various platforms and business units, and the results (the important part) have been astounding.
Their actionable insights revitalized our SEO strategies, significantly boosting our online visibility. Managing advertising accounts was made easy by their expertise, leading to a notable increase in traffic and conversions.

What sets them apart is their user-friendly dashboard, providing a clear view of our campaigns and empowering us to make informed decisions. The team's proactive communication and genuine dedication make them our trusted partners in the digital realm. We have not been the easiest clients to work with, given the complexity of our multiple business units and ancient internal systems, but they never make me feel like an inconvenience which I greatly appreciate! Aside from their 5-star operational support, they also sent our office home baked, BRANDED cookies (baked by their Director of HR, which really shows how much they value our business and partnership)!
For a marketing agency that turns challenges into positive results, our team highly recommends StraightNorth! 👏 (Shout out to Matthew Lane, Katie Chapman, Tammy Barry, and the rest of the team!)

My name is Jeff Vassaur, and I am the owner of McKay Vassaur Custom Builders. We are a home builder in the Austin area. A few months ago, and after a ton of research and interviews with multiple companies, we contracted with Straight North to provide desperately needed assistance on the SEO front. We have been in business since 2008, and have had multiple poor experiences with SEO arrangements......big price tag with no tangible results. Obviously, I was apprehensive entering into the partnership with Straight North, even though our much better due diligence highlighted them as the "Real McCoy". There were a few minor bumps in the ramp up, but Straight North has responded to those issues and constructive feedback with professional grace. We are happy to report that approximately four months into our initial six-month term, we have received multiple extremely viable leads that can be directly traced to their efforts. Shout out to Jules and the entire Straight North Team....keep up the good work!!

Our team at Straight North does a fantastic job, both in SEO and PPC. They've taken the time to understand our unique business needs and challenges instead of giving us "one-size-fits-all" strategy (like a lot of other companies do). They are proactive, happy to "do" (not just "suggest"), have great follow-up and I trust them - which for me is the most important. I am never concerned about them doing anything less than high quality work that will benefit our company in the long term.

Straight North is an exceptionally professional, well-run internet marketing agency. We recently created a new website and couldn't have realized such great results without their guidance and insight.
The Straight North team spent time learning our business and finding the best way to communicate our mission verbally and visually.

The team kept us on track and executed beautifully. So glad we worked with them, and we'd recommend them to anyone looking to create or expand their internet presence.

We recently built a new company website working with Straight North. It looks better than ever! We are incredibly satisfied with how it turned out. Working with the team was just that - a team. I felt that the Straight North team listened to our needs every step of the way and worked with us to ensure we got what we wanted in the end. Would 100% work with them again in the future.

Straight North was the perfect partner for us as we entered a strong growth phase. The team at Straight North worked hand-in-hand with our marketing and sales teams to understand our requirements.

It may sound trite that they understood our goals, but it is true. Their business people have so much experience in seeing a company at one phase, and helping their clients moving on up.

Thank you team SN!

I've been working with Straight North since December of 2020 and it's been a great experience! Perhaps my favorite part is having a dedicated account rep- I've been very lucky to have Greg Kelly assigned to my account! He and the rest of his team have been a true pleasure to work with across both SEO and PPC campaigns.

They are thorough, detailed, and completely transparent in how they proceed during an SEO project. I am being kept up to date on a regular basis regarding the next steps that are being planned and given the opportunity to provide input and feedback. At the beginning of the project, I was told very clearly what to expect during the first 4 to 6 months and by the end of the 12-month SEO project contract that I signed. After 4.5 months into the project, it is obvious that the stated targets were realistic and are being met. I interact with the Straight North team through Sara Rowles, the account manager for my project, who is very responsive and a pleasure to work with. I am very pleased with all aspects of my experience with Straight North. I recommend their SEO services very highly.

Aaron Wittersheim and his team at Straight North designed a website that propelled my charter business beyond all local competitors in the area. The positive results that come with a professionally designed Straight North website are incredible! I saw an immediate increase in sales and my business doubled in the course of just 1 year. I would highly recommend Straight North to anyone looking to take their business to the next level.

We worked with Straight North on a consulting basis and they helped our marketing department immensely. Not only were they able to understand our needs they were able to customize it to fit exactly what we needed. They were also very good at working on a fast paced scheduled since we contacted them on short notice. We would easily work with them again - they are a great marketing source.

Straight North are the consummate pros. After speaking to several firms on SEO and never feeling confident my business would be in qualified and capable hands, Straight North was a breath of fresh air. They are thorough and professional in all they do. Two website redesigns and an SEO campaign later, I would recommend them without hesitation.

Straight North has done a wonderful job managing our campaigns. We have been a client for close to a decade. Sharp people, they have been easy to work with. When we work on projects they already know where I am headed most of the time, so that makes the process easy.

There really isn't enough I can say about working with Straight North. From Ian Stevenson (VP Sales) to Ann Hambry (our project director) and every team member we met for discovery: They are professional, timely, creative, easy to work with and extremely organized!

A key point that made them stand apart from other firms I interviewed to work with: They are honest, they explain things that I may not understand in terms that I could in order to help me make the best decision for our company. Bottom line they didn't try to sell me on things we didn't need, have a genuine interest in seeing your company succeed - which is smart - and why I have decided to work with them on two new projects this year.

Very hard to balance the chaos of creativity and organization - they do it - seemingly effortlessly.

We can't say enough about the great service we have received from all of the people we have worked with at Straight North... right from the initial design consultations up to the finished website and ongoing SEO. They have done everything possible to make this a very positive experience, especially for those (like us) who have little expertise with website design and internet marketing. We thank them for their patient and caring approach to our project and look forward to working with them into the future. They always responded quickly to any changes requested, spent the time to train us to maintain the new website ourself, and when we ran into problems, helped with them immediately.

We have owned Duck Bay Lodge for 26 years and have had several "web designers" and "SEO specialists". The results just weren't there. Sheree and I are very happy with the look for the new website, and have many positive comments from our customers as to the ease of navigation and the clean design. Organic visits are way up from the start of the project in October. If you are looking for a firm that can deliver, call them.

The Association of Legal Administrators has worked with Straight North for many years. They have transitioned ALA's publication Legal Management successfully from a print publication to a brand-new all digital format of an app for the iPad and Android tablets. They also designed its own dedicated website. Each issue of the publication has gotten better with design every time. They find new ways to incorporate the bells and whistles on the app with each passing issue. We are thrilled with the results. They are open to suggestions and help us stay on time and on budget. The team there is amazing!

Over 7 years ago we hired Straight North to manage the SEO portion of our marketing plan. Since then, we have added a PPC program, display marketing, an eblast program, and most recently a complete re-design of our website - all designed and managed by Straight North. As a large group dental practice, the high conversion rate from clicks to validated leads means a successful online marketing program which translates into more patients choosing us for their dental needs.

Website development for dentists was in it's infancy in 1999 when we wanted to have a web presence. Even though our profession customizes treatment for every patient, we were not able to build anything but a cut and paste site that any dentist in the world could also have with a few Bill Gates' Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V's. Thanks to the folks at Straight North, we've had a customized and original, yet concise, website that allows patients to meet us online and even make appointments. Since the '90's, they have allowed us to improve our web presence at the rate we desired while educating and encouraging us to continue into the ever changing web world to stay relevant. Can't thank them enough!
