"Poor Choice For Small Business Marketing/Lead Gen"
1/5
What do you like best about SmartBug Media?

Highly knowledgeable in how to use the CRM/Hubspot

The support team is competent, personable, and friendly. Really enjoyed our Account Strategist. Also enjoyed those filling in during absence-they were just stretched. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SmartBug Media?

You pay $7k per month for 40 hrs. If 3 people from their team join a call ( at their discretion) you are charged for all 3 etc. (those hours rack up quick!) If you ask questions about things not done-they charge hours for multiple people looking into it... (nice luxury as a provider) We signed up for marketing/growth-in initial calls we shared it was our focus including amount to generate. Nobody verbalized this was not possible until we questioned lack of results-then were told "the contract says" READ- THE CONTRACT- please don't rely on the people to share their limitations. Staff is incredibly kind but became VERY STRETCHED for some months (during a leave) and output is minimal compared to cost. No concessions for their shortcomings-the bottom line was pay for contract. Quality and integrity did not appear to be a motive. Moving forward, it is a huge lesson learned-read the fine print, look for unsolicited reviews and trust nothing that is not in writing. We should not have missed that! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
