SEO Agency For Local Businesses

…What I appreciate most about Sherman is how proactive, creative, and quick he is. He doesn't just do what is asked of him; he thinks outside the box, comes up with ideas, takes initiative, and consistently goes above and beyond what I would ever expect from an SEO professional. He genuinely cares about helping my business succeed, and that really shows in the work he does. On top of being incredibly knowledgeable and talented at what he does, Sherman is also a genuinely wonderful human being and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to grow their business, increase their visibility, and take things to the next level. You won't regret working with him!"

…I knew I needed a better approach. A good friend had been encouraging me to call Sherman for at least three years. She knew someone who had been working with him successfully and kept telling me I needed to connect with him. I finally reached out after spending the better part of two years trying to find the right marketing support. During that time, I had hired different people to handle my SEO and rebuild my website. One website was so disappointing that I never published it. Another company created a beautiful website, but after nine months online, it still wasn’t generating consistent leads. By this past summer, I was at my wit’s end. I spoke with seven different independent businesses offering SEO, PR, advertising, and online marketing services. I was looking for someone who could help me build a meaningful online presence, but I was hesitant to make another investment when no one could really articulate what I should expect or how they would get me there. That’s when I finally called Sherman. Our first conversation lasted an hour and 40 minutes, and by the end of it, I knew I had found someone different. There was no pressure or sales pitch. What I experienced was someone who genuinely understood business, could see the bigger picture, and had the strategic thinking to connect all the pieces. I’m now about five weeks into working with him. He has completely rebuilt my website on a different platform, and within two days of launching it, I received my first lead. I was initially a little nervous because the direction he took the website was different from what I had envisioned. But I decided to trust his expertise, and I’m glad I did. What I have come to appreciate is that Sherman is so much more than an SEO or website person. He’s a business strategist, coach, and all-around online expert. He understands how to look at a business, identify opportunities, develop a strategy, and bring the pieces together in a way that makes sense. He also seemed to understand my vision for my business before I had even fully articulated it to him. I’ve known what I wanted to build for years; I just hadn’t found someone who knew how to help me execute it. After 22 years in business and working with numerous marketing companies and programs, I can honestly say that working with Sherman feels like one of the best business decisions I’ve ever made. I’m excited about what we’re building together, and my only regret is that I didn’t call him sooner!"

…Yet; it was a huge endeavor that he just ‘fixed’, with very few words said. I say that … but that is the least of what Sherman has done for my agency. He has helped guide me in many facets of my business - that have expanded my services that I offer and how I offer them. He has helped me grow my agency to a new and much welcomed - better platform for success. Sherman is 100% devoted to the very best services available today for SEO and every single aspect of Internet Marketing. His integrity and commitment is simply.. quite impressive. He is very leading edge for results, performance and for any company to have greater success. Anyone would be lucky to have him on their team! I know I am."

…Most things were taken care of the same day I contacted him with changes or glitches. I would never hesitate to recommend Sherman to my friends and family. Sherman is highly professional and trustworthy. Thank you Sherman."

…Sherman is friendly and knowledgeable. He provided tools for me to outline my business and my needs, and then created a draft Storybrand starting point for the site. Sherman listens to my inputs and feedback, and works to find solutions to my needs and suggestions. It is really coming along well, the finish line is now in sight. I'm looking forward to the new site! Once it is done, I'm planning on working with Sherman on the next phase of seo and digital marketing. I definitely recommend Sherman for your website needs!"

…More importantly, he took the time to learn about my unique business so that he could help me promote my it effectively. Also, I am not a very computer savvy person so his patience was extremely appreciated! His one-on-one coaching helped me stay focused & it motivated me to stop procrastinating! He made it simple for me to understand the material and he gave me step by step directions with Word Press program so I could get involved in making changes to my own website. Sherman also helped me with the production of a few videos and my clients loved him! He was easy to talk to and he made it so ordinary that my nervous clients didn't even know they were being interviewed! I would recommend Sherman to anyone wanting an honest, dedicated, knowledgeable, professional and fun Website designer and SEO services professional. I know he offers way more services but not being computer savvy I have no clue what else he offer! Look him up, you will not be disappointed! Update: 22 May 2019 As the Vice-President of COPE National (Canadian Organization of Professional Electrologists) we were thrilled to have Sherman keynote a 3- hour digital marketing workshop for our members at our recent convention at Harrison Hot Spring Resort. Our members' feedback on Sherman's training of websites, google My Business Maps and video production was fantastic! His ability to read our audience was spectacular, and he made us all fell at ease regardless how technically savvy or un-savvy we were! Many of our members walked away with practical, actionable strategies and techniques for growing our businesses. We've even had members reach out to the board ready to register for next years convention! Thanks once again, Sherman! You really over-delivered like I knew you would!!!"

…Matthew kept us updated every step of the way and delivered exactly what he promised. Bringing him on board was the best decision we made for our business growth!"

…We wanted to work with an expert who can keep our online brand consistent with our offline brand, manage and grow our audience reach through social media and help us show up on page 1 of Google so we could grow our business. Sherman has been a long-time customer at our restaurant and one thing led to another, we’ve retained him to be our web marketing consultant. We’re now dominating page 1 of Google and Map Pack for our important keywords, our website is looking good with current content and our reach on Facebook and our newsletter has grown by leaps and bounds.

He’s a super-friendly guy, and he’ll blow you away with his expertise in helping you grow your business!"

…When Sherman offered to help us with a great website, I agreed. In 2 days, we had a website. Sherman created all the artwork, the layout, the shopping cart & even designed print flyers for delivering to neighborhoods to promote our new website and delivery service. The speed in which he accomplished this is amazing! What would have taken me forever to do with much poorer quality, he did in a couple days, with amazing graphics and ease of use for our users – Sherman definitely has a super creative talent. Our customers instantly took a liking to our new website look. Our new brand and domain name was Sherman’s brainchild. Not only did we receive lots of compliments about our new website, but customer orders started pouring in too, at such a fast rate that I was not prepared for. When I needed modifications to the website, he was on top of it instantly. Now that we have a fully functioning website – which took less than 1 week to go from concept to fully functioning – Sherman is now working on full SEO and online marketing for our new brand – providing fresh, low-cost produce, delivered to your front door at zero cost. Every community we deliver to also gets support from us by way of donations to the community help centers, cold weather shelters and food banks. Because of the work Sherman has done for us we are now able to help so many families get healthy food that they would not normally be able to purchase due to inflated margins of produce and our customers’ restricted incomes. We’re so excited we can now offer this great valuable service. Thank you Sherman for all you have done for both of our programs."

…He was both thoughtful and efficient. Sherman truly cares about his clients and he's an absolute joy to work with. We did everything via email and phone and he made it super easy, especially for a non-tech person like myself !! Thanks again Sherman and I look forward to working with you again soon."

…As a result, I now have a site that I feel proud to share with the corporate world as well as the artistic world. And I found Sherman to display great professionalism with many useful resources up his sleeve. I feel I’ve had a professional make-over! What I liked most about Sherman’s service is how he intently listened to my thoughts and implemented them perfectly. I love the unexpected style that grew from our talks, infused with Sherman’s ideas. Now, I have a new site that represents more of what I want to portray as a professional, a new logo for my brand, and new website features I didn’t have before. I feel proud of the look now! I would highly recommend Sherman’s service as a website developer. He is easy to work with, accommodating, gently assertive (when you need it) and has valuable initiative. Sherman also finds the fun, and passion in the work, which becomes infectious! Sherman goes beyond the call of duty because he cares. He is prompt when he says he is going to change something, or do something for you. His unexpected creativity is… well, unexpected, and great!"

…We now have the professional look and new fresh perspective we need to move forward with our company. What a huge relief! If you need it done for you as you don’t have much time to work on your website and marketing for your business, I recommend Sherman. He went above and beyond what I needed him to do with our branding, website makeover, layouts and copywriting! It was great to have his professional marketing wisdom to improve our company’s presence, but also keeping who we are as a company in mind. Highly recommended."

…Specifically, I appreciate Sherman’s absolute commitment to positivity and finding the ‘how to do it’ every time. The other benefits of working with Sherman is the increase in my ability to directly build and communicate with my audience. Plus, he made the ideas I had in my head practical and possible, and upped my exposure to new clients. I would absolutely recommend Sherman because he knows how to get things done, and help one avoid pitfalls. If you’re on the fence, I highly recommend you talk to Sherman. He is one of the most positive, competent, “willing to find a way” kind of people I’ve ever met. Things seem possible (because they are) when he is helping!"

…I highly recommend his services to anyone who values quality, efficiency and a great working relationship."

…He was a terrific partner in the process. He works quickly and is there to serve. I can’t say enough good things about him."

…The site looks absolutely stunning. I can’t believe it. You made me look like a rockstar! Oh now the hard work of living up to it.I love the layout and all the graphics.This looks like a $10,000.00 website.Thank you so much!. Your service is top notch!"

…I reach out and his response time is amazing. He always gets things done right away. I am super grateful for that. He has gone above and beyond to help me in every way that he can. If you are like me and need to make the web simple. Sherman is the guy to go."

…The photoshoot was not long at all. Took less than 10 min to complete. We highly recommend him!"

…We now have the professional look and new fresh perspective we need to move forward with our company. What a huge relief! If you need it done for you as you don’t have much time to work on your website and marketing for your business, I recommend Sherman. He went above and beyond what I needed him to do with our branding, website makeover, layouts and copywriting! It was great to have his professional marketing wisdom to improve our company’s presence, but also keeping who we are as a company in mind. Highly recommended."

…As far as his producing skills, I know a little about that. I am a 4 time Emmy Award winning producer and writer, and Sherman will do for you online, what I spent years doing offline for networks, syndication and cable."

…I enthusiastically recommend Sherman to anyone who has a blog or wants to learn how to easily create loyalty in the marketplace."

…I especially liked how my website is catered so specifically to me! And his website design for my Ginger 66 Band website is so incredible! I would definitely recommend Sherman, he’s the best! Working with Sherman was so wonderful. His easy going nature and fun personality makes it so easy. He has a speciality for marketing the person in their site. Its as if he has known you for years. He finds out about you, in a short period of time, and creates something special. I would recommend Sherman to anyone looking to market themselves. Plus, he’s just a fantastic guy. At the end of the day, you want to visit his family for dinner!"

…It’s sensational to have an official website to promote my business! I am so pleased with the website Sherman designed for me! It has me excited with the possibilities at my fingertips. I love the idea of digital promo. With the click of a button casting / producers / directors are able to see my history in one place on my web page, a glimpse into my career personality. It has proven to be a worthy investment for my business and it is my favourite new tool. The design is slick, easy to navigate and I am able to do my own updates and have even started to blog. It’s just the beginning. I encourage everyone to investigate and get started. I was hesitating over having a website, it seemed daunting and maybe I wasn’t ready until I met Sherman and discovered his services for actors. Sherman is professional, easy to talk to and he was a delight to work with. Everything went without a hitch. I am looking forward to learning more about new media and how it affects our business. I am happy I took the leap and have the added benefit from getting to know Sherman Hu, a stellar individual."

…I love my whole website…. the final result is amazing! And the process was also extremely fast and stress free. Sherman is incredibly helpful, enthusiastic, friendly, smart, and efficient — as well as extremely skilled and talented. He did a superb job on my actor website and connecting all my social media profiles & making it look fantastic. Plus Sherman takes the time to make your site unique and special to match your brand. The thing that stood out was Sherman’s kindness & passion for people… he clearly loves what he does, and it makes him a joy to work with. I would highly recommend Sherman’s service to actors because I haven’t found a service like it! It allows actors to have the most professional, beautiful, and personalized websites. It is fast, stress free, and FUN! Sherman is friendly, fast, and generous with his knowledge and time. Thank you, Sherman! I am so blown away by the final product, and couldn’t be happier. I am so excited to share it with the world! I feel this will truly help me take my business to the next level. You were a pleasure to work with, and will absolutely recommend you to everyone I know."

…Most importantly, you were relaxed and patient with me and my non-techie skills. – priceless! Many thanks! (Updated Nov 2017) Sherman Hu created a wonderful website for me a number of years ago. He made it look and function exactly as I wanted it to. Over time it became out of date. So I recently contacted him again to revise the site and make it more current. Just like the first time, he was outstandingly helpful, professional, on time, reasonably priced, highly responsive, and gave much more than was asked of him. It’s a pleasure to work with him. He does what he says he will, when he says he will, and does it all with stunning expertise. Hire him!"

…He is always there to help me with questions or concerns regarding how to navigate my site. He is enthusiastic about his profession and it shows in the quality of his work. Sherman is what I would use for an example of a professional. I have not stopped getting compliments regarding the professionalism of my site. I am proud to direct people to it. I use it as the centre for all of my related links on the web. I am in love with the fact that all the other media pages people have on line, twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Vimeo, YouTube, IMDB, etc can all be found on my website. One place that branches to millions across the world. Best feature ever!!! In addition, I can update my own page and add media or remove. I can keep people visiting the site up to date with my company. My blog allows me to connect on a more personal level with my guests. The transition between the pages and images are so smooth. I would recommend this to anyone who is serious about having a web presence online. If you are trying to reach an international or even in a big city like Vancouver or Toronto you need to have an online place where people can find your product. Sherman has created that. The best part is that he didn’t just create a page, take my money and leave. He is there for technical support so that I can continue to grow with my website as my company grows. Getting a website done with Sherman Hu was the best thing that has ever happened to my company and people are starting to notice."

…I am fielding calls almost daily now from pastors who want to know more about my business and the old format just wasn’t cutting it. I am so grateful to have you in my life to get this done so well!! Did I mention that YOU ROCK???!!!! SO totally stoked can barely see straight!!! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU ARE DOING!!! I CAN’T WAIT!!"

…His understanding of blog marketing and the rest of social media is second to none as is his ability to make it simple to understand. I highly recommend Sherman to any one who wants to further their knowledge of the entire Web 2.0 world. Any purchase of Sherman’s products, training programs or services is money well spent and is sure to give you a huge return on your investment and a dramatic increase in your bottom line."

…With Sherman’s encouragement, training and methodology, I was able to put together 3 videos on my own. His system works for me because I know that I can follow a step by step process and get consistent results. Be ready to rock the house because Sherman plays full on and he loves it when his clients win."

…I love working with Sherman! What I liked most is the time Sherman takes in learning about you and your business, and it really shows in the end product. His patience in working with me to make sure the end result was as good as it could be made a big difference, and a big impression on me! He gave me a wonderful product to use for my business, and I learned alot in the process. Sherman is quick thinking, extremely knowledgeable and quite frank. He has no problem telling you like it is. My best advice is for you to LISTEN! Just talking with Sherman and hearing his point of view on different aspects of my business was invaluable. In some cases it gave me a fresh perspective, and I saw things through new eyes. In other cases, it was just the reassurance and positive reinforcement I needed to know I was headed in the right direction. Sherman’s one hip dude! There’s no doubt that this man keeps his finger on the pulse of new media, social and video marketing. You can learn more in a 30 minute conversation than some folks can teach you in six months. In addition, Sherman’s a patient teacher, trusted advisor and seasoned marketer who’ll put your business on the path to quick success! I would absolutely recommend Sherman, and I have! Part of me doesn’t want him getting too many new customers, just so he’ll have time for me! But seriously, I encourage anyone ready to take that next step in their business to consult with Sherman. Sherman rocks! Let him get you on the path to marketing your products and services to the right customers, at the right time, and in the right channels!"

…Learning the technology seemed doable after the initial group session. The personal, 1-1 coaching session was also helpful. Actually having a date set on my calendar for a personal coaching session motivated me to experiment with the technology and get working models ready to discuss with Sherman. I probably would have procrastinated on this for a long while longer if it hadn’t been for this set date. Sherman’s ease and assurance with the technology put me at ease in the 1-1 coaching session. We had a video-conference session through Skype for our sesson. This was not a barrier at all. He was able to demonstrate a technique by sharing his desktop with me and doing what he was describing, which made it easy for me to grasp. It’s true, a picture IS worth a 1000 words! Sherman’s feedback on my first projects was helpful and encouraging as well as to the point. I felt he could pick out suggestions that would make sense without getting bogged in the theory about why (a true gift!). After our 1-1 conference I felt I could easily use this information to make the changes he suggested to my current projects or to make new ones a little more accessible. The whole experience, in fact, from beginning to end, felt empowering for me. I would recommend this service to anyone who wants to tweak their video presentation skills for online presentations – from the neophyte to the experienced presenter. We all have something to learn and I’m sure Sherman could find something to make anyone’s presentation shine that much brighter. Thanks, Sherman!"

…This was a valuable lesson, because it showed me just when I thought I had the “correct” information, Sherman showed me there is still some more to learn. Thanks Sherman."

…Unlike some IT experts that I have worked with, Sherman understands how what he does integrates with your business and can add real value fast. Sherman asks insightful business (as well as technical) questions and makes powerful suggestions. I would highly recommend Sherman as a business partner and as someone with integrity, expertise and personality."

…I would not hesitate to suggest Sherman as anything else but an incredible resource of knowledge, not to mention being one of the nicest guys you will meet."

…He’s not only an expert, he knows how to make learning fun! If you want to know how to blog, Sherman is the guy you want to learn from."

…When I need advice or help when it comes creating web 2.0 strategy, Sherman is the very first name on my speed dial."

…Sherman is creative man and a very caring person...not to mention highly skilled and knowledgeable in so many areas."
