Firecracker PR provided complete public relations guidance for the launch of our new ride service app, asterRIDE. Within months, we were mentioned in top media including CNET and Washington Post. As we rolled out the app in targeted cities, Firecracker secured us stories and interviews in newspapers, television and radio. Firecracker goes beyond the call of duty to advise us on all things media and public relations. They are a true member of our team.

VCG started out using FireCracker for some public relations consulting. We were so impressed with the quality of their work and their reporting & communication capabilities that we’ve engaged them for all of our online marketing, search engine marketing (SEM), search engine optimization (SEO) and public relations. FireCracker has helped us educate an entirely new market niche within software development. They’ve turned every marketing dollar we spend into eight dollars of revenue and we know that because, with their approach, it’s measurable. If VCG needs any marketing message, FireCracker is involved. VCG would not have the marketing presence and success it does today without FireCracker as our PR firm. They are more than a vendor, they are a partner who we count on every day to help us fulfill on our corporate goals and dreams.

PR is about results and on our very first project, Firecracker secured a front page story on a national journal which gave us important exposure in our industry.

Firecracker has shown experience in multiple areas of marketing including public relations, search engine marketing, inbound marketing, event marketing and content marketing. They’ve provided so many services from one agency.

Firecracker took over managing our AdWords campaign and helped us triple our sales in the very first month. They’ve consistently increased our clickthrough rates on a very competitive category to at least 7%. With their attention to detail of split testing ads, managing our bids and watching our conversions, we’ve been able to focus on our business while reaping the benefits of increased online sales.

Firecracker took us from no ranking to the top five placement on Google for ‘granite furniture’, ‘granite table’ and ‘granite tables’ that have a total of 15.5 million search results. We couldn’t be more pleased with our SEO results.

Firecracker is a significant reason why all of our online marketing and search engine optimization has been so successful. Firecracker was able to land us on the first page of Google. During an unprecedented economic environment, Firecracker was instrumental in both re-launching our brand awareness efforts, social media marketing, and public relations campaigns. The personal attention and proven results speak for themselves. I personally as well as for all senior management at XSite Validation thank the folks at Firecracker for producing such great results and continuing to be a trusted media and communications advisor.

Firecracker has helped us secure interviews with editors and reporters in magazines that our prospects read, including Consulting Magazine, IT Business Edge and Web Hosting Industry Review. They consistently provide us with lightning fast customer service in our PR and marketing efforts.

Firecracker has driven downloads of our numberGo business intelligence software through consistently high clickthrough rates and conversion rates, as well as optimizing our site so our web traffic continues to increase through organic means.

Firecracker helps us receive regular industry press and media mentions that have increased our overall brand awareness, all for a rate that was within our budget.
