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.

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.

Matthew from straight north was incredibly helpful. He gave me honest feedback and told me he wouldnt be able to help with my very small business instead he gave me some good suggestions in order to accomplish what I need to with our website. He also suggested an associate who could help me with one aspect in which I needed help. When our conversation was drawing to a close I asked him what I owed for all of the terrific information, and he said nothing! I spoke with other companies looking for quotes around the same time and they were all high pressure, and offered no help. When I need and can afford these services I will use Straight North, and highly recommend them. Thank You Matthew!

Our team at Straight North does a fantastic job, both in SEO and PPC. Theyve 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.

Honest and helpful. Matt from Straight North was able to assess my business needs and after discussion he honestly told me that with the demographics Id want to reach and the money it would cost it would not be a solid investment. There are few companies out there who would have such integrity instead of taking out hundreds/thousands of dollars per month from a small business. Nothing is guaranteed in marketing but Im happy to know that a company like this is not about the bottom dollar - and instead values the ability to deliver to their clients. While we are not looking for mass expansion at this time, we will be calling Straight North when we are ready to take that step. Thank you for the advice and feedback!

These guys just get it! When Call One approached Straight North for a new web design project, they not only delivered exactly what we were looking for – but they earned our trust and loyalty and now manage all of our Digital Marketing. Great people to work with, and very down to earth. We look forward to a fruitful relationship between out two organizations for many years to come. Col got to be! Shiiiit.

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!

There really isnt 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 didnt try to sell me on things we didnt 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.

3 months into our agreement we requested to cancel our service due to the poor performance from Straight North. Once our agreement terms were met (6 months) they tried to charge us for another month. Had to put a stop payment on our bank account to get away from these guys. Dont waste your time! The sales team was great, but then from there its like flushing money down the toilet.

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.Capt. Rob DixonChallenger Charters

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.

The Association of Legal Administrators has worked with Straight North for many years. They have transitioned ALAs 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!

Website development for dentists was in its 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-Vs. Thanks to the folks at Straight North, weve had a customized and original, yet concise, website that allows patients to meet us online and even make appointments. Since the 90s, 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. Cant thank them enough!

We reached out to them for some work. But that contract was kind of weird. They were very adamant about it and I think they overcharge you. Also heard that they dont deliver on time. Improve your service.

Over promise what they can do. Then are very hard to get a hold of once you become a customer. Total disappointment. Promised landing pages, then said we dont need them, then 6 months later said, you need landing pages, 3 months later still no landing pages...but the invoice showed up every month.

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.

Straight north is bunch of crooks .I reached out to them and allocated healthy budget for our SEO. I paid $9k first month and they made me sign contract for $6k every month for next six months.The kind of work they did was sub standard and my team would have to always go back and correct it .Now we not only paying them exorbitant money but wasting our time also.Needless to say our business started declining and i reached out to them in frustration fully realizing that SEO is a slow process to be told that no matter what you have contract signed for 6 month and that i have to pay them .I wrote email stating how can i pay my bills if my business is going down but they dont carei encourage people to not sign any contract with this company .They will do horrible job and hold you down to your contract .|There are much better companies out there .These guys are not adequately trained to handle anything and you wont get anything close to what you paying for

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.

I used Straight North for PPC campaigns and SEO. They were amazing and extremely helpful and hands on. They ran multiple ads for me and from there could see what was working the best. They also optimized my website for SEO, which helped me become the #1 search result for my field. I love this company and highly recommend them!

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.Marketing Director

Our company Pro Stock Hockey has been using Straight North for our PPC and SEO campaigns and could not be happier at this point. Straight North is a very professional and an extremely knowledgable group and they know exactly how to get you results where it counts. So far our results speak volumes to the knowledge and expertise of Straight North and its employees.

We cant 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 werent 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.
