Due to aging technology and rapidly increasing prices, I switched our company's phone service from…read moreAT&T landline to Comcast's cloud based service. Unfortunately, it went from bad to worse with Comcast's inability to properly program the lines, as well as the equipment features not functioning as they should. I spent nearly two months with Comcast trying to correct the situation to no avail. With each "fix", the matter only became worse as I was often left with dead phone lines, or phone calls that could not even get through to us; an absolute disaster that cost us dearly. My business partner reached out to John, who took immediate action by beginning the process of transferring us over to his cloud based service provider. John attended to the porting of our numbers, ordering of new equipment, programming of the phones, and in house training. Throughout the process, John treated the matter with the utmost urgency. I now have a much higher quality phone system that I own, as opposed to the more costly rental equipment provided by Comcast. During the installation visit, John properly programmed the phones and installed features and functions that best suited our company needs. I could not be more pleased with the quality of the product and the service. I wish I had switched my phone system to Top Gear Technologies a long time ago.

That is not at all how the relationship started out, or unfolded. I have so many posts from them prior to July. I asked for a partial refund, they refused. I cancelled immediately. Don't do it.

Jack walked me through the real nuts-and-bolts of how one should begin thinking about how to develop a vibrant and resilient website for a newly created publication business. He patiently explained how I should prioritize the necessary steps for its successful creation, including: how to purchase a domain name; how to go about selecting other business partners to engage with--in my case optimal print-on-demand publishers; how to strategize from the start about the site's potential for future optimization, and so forth. Thank you, Jack. I look forward to a long partnership. Sharon H.

Chicago Website Design SEO Company - Honest and Genuine marketing company…read more Today I spoke to Jack about updating my website and search engine optimization to get new customers. He asked me about my business in detail and how he and his company could help. I explained that I run a specialty coffee service in Chicago and that I want to have a website that gets me new customers and generates traffic to my existing customers. When I finished explaining my goals, he politely said that he did not think my business needed an expensive website or expensive internet marketing campaigns just yet, and gave me a detailed list of things I should be doing now to increase revenues, as well as introduce myself to my narrow niche of new potential clients. Since I am still ramping up my customer base, he thought my money would best be spent on less expensive marketing, then ramping up my website down the road. It was so refreshing to find a company that is not just looking to take your money, I look forward to working with Jack and his team in the future, they really know marketing for success!

Let me start out by saying I really do appreciate what Lou did for my business!…read more I had hired a web designer and web developer in Dec 2008. By the time I had hired Lou my very expensive website had YET to be launched (and this was May 2010). So when I called Lou my website was 8 months past due. Lou stepped up and kicked some tail feather. He got all the pieces in place and created working plans for everyone to complete (even me). From here on out I will not do another project without Lou. Since the website has launched Lou has taught me so much about SEO, etc that it's mind boggling. Lou is a must have for any website project or marketing plan.
