Review: Evolve Thought | Media Group
Firstly we will be reviewing an advertising and marketing company located in Toronto, ON Canada. I’m going to try and do this as unbias as possible, which may be difficult because the big boss man actually owns this company. But hopefully I won’t need to say anything too bad 
Business Name: Evolve Thought | Media Group

We break most of our reviews into 3 segments. The first being a review of their services, the second being a review of the quality of their work, and thirdly of their customer service. So lets get going!
Services:
At first glance it appears that these guys are primarily doing web site design, but that’s definitely a misconception. Evolve Thought | Media Group is actually a full service advertising and marketing company that covers everything from your website to street level promotions throughout Toronto.
I haven’t had a chance to request a quote on anything so I can’t comment on pricing, however I see there’s a couple packages listed on their website for Online Marketing (SEO), Email Marketing, and Website Design; all of which appears to be reasonably priced.
Quality of Work:
This goes without saying. I mean look at their stuff! It’s precise and spot on with how internet websites should be made; clear, easy to read and navigate as well as quick loading. I’m so sick of seeing these so called “web design” or “internet companies” that pop out some ugly projects and claim to be design experts. If you’re looking to hire some kid in his basement or some random overseas freelancer then best of luck to you because your website will either take years to create or end up looking like something that fell off the back of a garbage truck.
As for their other services I’m afraid I can’t write a proper review on them simply because I haven’t had any street team promotions or email marketing done and I certainly cannot see the results of their work in those areas.
Customer Service:
Part of what we do at LinkXS.com is make anonymous phone calls pretending to either be existing customers or new potential customers. As a result of this we get first hand experience in how different companies approach their sales and support.
With that said I must say that I was impressed with the level of patience their customer service rep had (at least the one I spoke with in particular). I mean, if I was him and had a call from someone that didn’t even know what “an email” was, I would be pretty reluctant to offer any sort of assistance. BUT low and behold Chris (the rep) was calm, collected and patient with me as he explained what an email is and helped me understand what it is that they are offering (service-wise).
Summary:
In closing I would recommend getting at least a quote from these guys. If their prices are industry standard or even slightly less then its definately worth it. I may even pay a bit more just for the level of quality that comes with their work. As for their offline advertising/marketing stuff, give it a try and report back to us with your feedback – we’d be more than happy to do a follow up to this review.
