Surefire Is a Sure Thing!

We were nervous to change at first and thought it was 'too good to be true' but decided after talking to several references, we'd give it a shot. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] was great getting us started and listened to what we wanted, made suggestions and edits, and we are very happy with the end product. We were then handed off to our rep, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN], who has been incredible from the start. We chat with her weekly and she's very understanding with all of our questions and we feel very comfortable with her.

PROS

We like that it's a one-stop shop for marketing with incredible customer support! We can post to multiple platforms, track what people are interested in on our site, listen to leads, and get help from our rep within minutes. Our rep, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN], is always making great suggestions, answering our questions or finding out the answers for us, and she makes us feel like we matter to her and to Surefire.

CONS

At first we didn't like that we couldn't make direct changes to the website ourselves. On our old platform we could go in and change things pretty easily. We quickly learned that we should allow the 'pros' to do those changes and to be honest, all we have to do is send a request and it's honored in just a short time! We just had to get used to the new system.

Reason for choosing Surefire Local

Honestly it was because of [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and the references he supplied. We went with our gut and it seemed like the best bang for our bucks.

Reasons for switching to Surefire Local

Once they got our site up and running we initially had a great rep that helped us. He left, and the next rep was barely there for us, didn't return calls, and wasn't proactive. We felt like they just put our site on cruise control and never offered to change what need to change to improve performance and increase leads. We felt like we didn't matter to them.

Definitely Recommend the Surefire Local Marketing Platform

Surefire Local has greatly increased the traffic to our website from one year to the next. The results have been huge and evident.

PROS

The platform is very easy to use and navigate. It allows me to easily show and share with my husband/co-owner of our business how all aspects of our social media and website are functioning.

CONS

The only thing that I would change is the time it takes to load some sections/pages and the functionality when using Mac browsers (Firefox and Safari).

Vendor Response

Hi Denise, thank you for your review! We appreciate your feedback as we're always looking to improve the Surefire Local Marketing Platform for our clients. I'll be sure to pass it along to our development team!
