We worked with Annie on a Google Ads Conversion Tracking project for Empire Today. She was strategic and methodical in her approach, quick to respond and implement. She went above and beyond to stay on the project past scope end date to ensure everything was working properly. We recommend her for anyone with Google ads needs.
We worked with Annie and Akorn for our google ad campaign and were very thrilled by their service. They were very diligent and thorough, took a systematic approach by breaking down the campaign into phases and walked us through each phase and set a thoughtful plan for increasing the quality of leads. We have had a few campaign managers in the past, and none of them showed the level of thoughtfulness, attention to detail and care as Akorn has and I highly recommend them!
The Akorn team has been supporting our animal rescue through pro bono Facebook/IG ads for the last few years. Thanks to their efforts, we have seen an increase in donations and more awareness of our adoptable dogs. Annie and the Akorn team have always been professional, responsive, and dedicated to our cause. We are proud to have had the opportunity to work with such a talented and compassionate partner.
The Akorn team continues to provide us with the highest quality service and attention. We couldn't ask for a better partner!
