The Marketing Crew

Bad News! Google is ending their Call Reporting service at the end of July. If you rely on Google to tell you how many phone calls your ads are generating, you'll need to find another solution.

Good News! The Marketing Crew is a Call Tracking Metrics Partner and can help you quickly set-up better call tracking than you've ever experienced before.

Though the team at The Marketing Crew often works behind the scenes, reviews like this wouldn't be possible without them. Thank you Evolv Technology and The Crew!

"Massive Google Search Algorithm Leak!" This headline popped up today, but in reading the details, there's really not much new here. Site authority, domain age, click traffic, click duration... all already assumed and taken into account by people who know SEO.

Google's 14,000 Search Ranking Features Leaked Rand Fishkin along with Mike King may have published one of the biggest data leaks outside of the Department of Justice data reveal around Google Search and its internal ranking features and signals. The document was from an anonymous source (no longer anonymous, see below) but verified by Rand Fish...

What a fun project - customizing this PDF flyer to be both an intake form and presentation. But the BEST graphic? That would be the Google 5 Star Review the client just left. Thanks Cayden!

Getting a review like this is humbling and makes it all worth while. Thank you Michele and the team at Vertical Options Elevator Services!

What makes a great ad? Results! That's the bottom line, of course. Sometimes simpler gets better results.

Take this ad for instance, which we designed for a local direct mail company. It pops, it's clean and it paints a beautiful visualization with clear call to action. Not complex. Not fancy. It just... works!

Shout out to Spokane's own Vertical Options Elevator Service on a new custom Control Panel! We look forward to seeing great results. If you want to quickly view all your important metrics (KPIs) in one place - we can build a custom Control Panel for you too.

(For those wondering - the actual metrics in the images are for example only).

"Jason and The Marketing Crew recently helped us re-brand, re-design our website and produce a company video.

Though we’ve built a successful business over the last 30 years, we had a lot of questions when it came to best practices for websites, video production, SEO and branding.

Jason and his team were extremely professional, talented, timely and honest. They answered our questions with professional knowledge and delivered a great product.

Blinds Etc highly recommends Jason and The Marketing Crew."
