Landscape Maverick

I recently had a scheduled call with Manny because I was really hoping to work with his team for marketing but ended up highly disappointed because he did not show up for our call. After 30 minutes of calling and texting no one got back to me or offered and explanation. if reliability is an issue even before starting, I can't imagine trusting them with paid ads. very disappointed experience

I rarely leave negative reviews, especially for small businesses. If I’m reviewing a small company, it’s usually because they earned five stars.

This was not a minor optimization issue 50–60% of leads were coming from outside our service area. That is unacceptable when geographic targeting is one of the most basic campaign settings. We’ve worked with multiple marketing firms over the years. No one expects perfection. But this was not a performance fluctuation it was systemic incompetence. When we asked for reasonable compensation due to wasted ad spend and mismanagement, they refunded January’s service fee. We terminated them in early February, and they claimed they “refunded” February" despite the fact that it was not a full month of service. Communication was consistently slow. Getting in contact with Manny was difficult. When we fired them after 4.5 months of poor performance, he said he was “surprised” and followed it with, “That’s too bad bec
