There is a meaningful difference between an agency run by someone who has spent a career doing this and one staffed by junior account managers following a playbook. Here is what that difference looks like in practice.
Every SearchSoda client works with a specialist team, with Nicolas overseeing every account as CEO. Decisions about your budget and strategy are made by someone senior, not junior staff working from a playbook, which means faster decisions, fewer misunderstandings and no context lost in translation.
The broadcast, gaming and influencer platform background is not just an interesting backstory. Working in environments where performance metrics are tracked in real time, where audiences vote with their attention and where costs are scrutinised daily produces a discipline that carries directly into how SearchSoda runs client campaigns.
Most agencies will not put prices on their website because it gives them room to charge more once they know your budget. SearchSoda publishes every price. You can read exactly what you would pay before you contact us. This means the conversation starts with your goals, not a negotiation about fees.
SEO takes three to six months to build momentum. Paid ads produce faster results but need optimisation time. We tell clients this upfront and in writing. When campaigns take longer than expected, we explain why and what we are doing about it, not spin the narrative to make slow months look like strategic patience.
These are the benchmarks we target for every client across our core services. We share these openly because we want you to know what you are buying before you commit to anything.
Google Business Profile optimisation and review generation typically produce initial Google Maps ranking improvements within four to eight weeks for local commercial searches. Full organic ranking improvements for competitive terms take longer, usually three to six months, but the local visibility work starts producing results early in the process.
Typical improvement in cost per conversion within 90 days of taking over an unmanaged Google Ads account through better campaign structure, match type control and negative keyword management. Accounts that have never been professionally managed often have significant waste that is clear to identify and eliminate once you know what to look for.
Every website we build is fast, fully mobile responsive and optimised for Google’s Core Web Vitals. Performance is built in from the ground up, not retrofitted after launch. This matters because Google uses page speed as a ranking factor and because slow websites lose visitors before they have read a single word of your content.
Target Google Business Profile rating after three months of systematic review generation for businesses starting from fewer than 10 reviews. A consistent review generation process, properly set up and followed, produces a reliable flow of genuine reviews that compounds over time and significantly improves local search visibility.
Most agency results pages show cherry-picked numbers from their best months and their easiest clients. We will not do that.
When we publish client results, they will include the starting position, the timeline, the specific actions taken and the actual results, including the months where progress was slower than expected. Digital marketing is not linear. Good agencies tell clients when something is not working and explain what they are doing about it.
As a new agency, our early focus is on doing right by the clients who trust us first. Results will be published once campaigns have had time to mature, honest, specific and verifiable.
