 Testimonials

“The team at MLD is that rare combination of results-driven and great-to-work-with professionals. As of this review, we have been working with them for 6 months and they have really taken on a mountain of work that my small team never would have been able to accomplish, all while helping boost key SEO rankings, really ramping up our advertising efficiency, and countless other wins. Casey and her team work hard to understand our business and guide it based on our needs. I recommend them to everyone that I know professionally that could benefit from them, so it only makes sense that I share my experience here as well.”
— Bradlee Hicks, Marketing Director of Diamond Brand
“When we interviewed with Casey and Karolina to help us with a variety of marketing and SEO needs, we were pleased with the ideas, energy, knowledge and enthusiasm that came from both of them. The engagement energy and progress we have seen in the last 6 months has meet and exceeded our expectations, and we are in a much better position going forward and continuing to develop our tactics and ideas. As new team members have been added to help support our needs we are equally pleased with the level of knowledge and expertise. We look forward to continuing this relationship. ”
— Willy, Owner of 1900 Inn on Montford
“With our company going through staffing changes and a major rebranding effort Casey and the team at MLD has helped us step back and reexamine our marketing needs and strengths. This work is helping us create an intentional, holistic strategy going forward. The whole team is very easy going, friendly and fun to work with too. Always, a treat to hop on a call. Looking forward to where we go in the coming months. Thanks!”
— Justin, Marketing Manager, Wonderstate Coffee
“Working with Casey and Karolina has been a great experience! We started by working on SEO together but then more and more projects of ours needed their help. Casey really met us where we were and has been crucial in helping our business gain traction online in a short amount of time. Great communication throughout the process.”
— Andrew, Owner of Sauna House
