"From the get-go, Michael and James were there every step of the way to support the agency's design and development process. They were like the dynamic duo of website building, guiding the team with their expert insights and offering helpful feedback throughout the entire project.
The end result is a website that truly captures the essence of CLD Fencing's brand. The design is sleek and modern, with eye-catching visuals that draw you in and keep you engaged. The user experience is top-notch, with intuitive navigation and clear calls to action that make it easy to find what you're looking for."
"Our original introduction to SO Marketing came as a result of needing a website, we'd had a big unexpected company restructure and we turned to the local agency rather desperately needing help. They were beyond supportive and helped us out quickly, and efficiently and we felt very reassured that they had our backs and we've been working with them for 7/8 years since now. Always empathetic and always understanding of personal issues too. "
"We first met SO Marketing on a stand at the Cheshire Show and had a conversation about how we could integrate ebay into our e-commerce website. This then led to a meeting which led to them creating our first ever Magento website that took us from simply an ebay trader through to a fully fledged e-commerce. That relationship from 2013 developed into a supportive, colleague based arrangement whereby anything we needed the team at SO Marketing have been there for us. They've been our best friends in our growth from what was then a few hundred thousand a year through to millions and millions now, integrated with all third party marketplaces, Amazon selling, and future development onto an M2 site. "
"We have been doing some changes to our website that was originally built a number of years ago by the team at so marketing when they were in Cheadle and haven't looked at it for a while, still the same helpful team and are helping us to now re-develop this to look more modern and make content changes as we go. "
"So pleased to have found SO Marketing! They made our project stress free, listened to our ideas, discussed everything in detail, and provided a personal approach to the project, nothing was too much trouble. "
"The guys at So marketing have made our website and continued to do work on it for the past few years, we always get nice feedback from clients on it and try to send over more content to keep it up to date but we're not good at that so that sits with us not them. "
"The design of my website was nowhere near as daunting as I expected as the team were able to pull ideas out of the brief and were more than happy to adjust and tweak until we were really happy with it"
"They truly moved us ahead with the times. We had an existing site which was clunky and did not function as we had hoped. After sticking with this for several years, we approach SO to help address this black sheep in the business.
The primary focus for the new site was to integrate with our new EPos system, so from the start, it was a technical challenge to ensure the EPos and site worked together to ensure our stock was always correct and we never oversold. With the team's help, we managed to create a design which was on point for our family brand (also created by SO) and ensure our online presence matched our retail presence. The process from start to finish wasn't smooth, but most of that was down to the EPos side not functioning as they had stated. Again, SO went above and beyond to assist with this. They even moved the entire hosting platform over to one which would work better, solely so the EPos systems would work better. They didn't need to do this, but they could see I was"
"Somarketing's web design and knowledge is outstanding"
"Our website is good, clear and concise and we get a lot of inbound enquiries from it!"
"The final design was beyond anything I could have hoped for."
"Always supportive and helpful when we're making changes to the website that they created for us."
"James and Rich did our original branding way back in around 2013 and it's really held up to the test of time. It's been one of those things that was born out of necessity but was done properly first time and so was worth the investment. "
"SO Marketing created our brand which has gone through a number of iterations since it was created. We worked closely with our family here who had input into it, to get something that we were all fully invested in and SO Marketing's practical attitude to usage implications really factored into everything. "
"So Marketing have done a great job helping me to rebrand. They have taken time to get to know me and my business and were able to bring forward some fabulous ideas"
"We have a great brand from these guys, very creative and the designers who worked with us on it were beyond patient with our constant requests for change!"
"They really understood the concept I presented them with."
"Our website is builded on the Wordpress woocommerce platform and have kept it up to date for us for years now. This has been really useful in helping us to understand what we can and can't edit, and training provided (and subsequent refreshers!!) has really helped us to get to grips with how easy it is to edit and change things. "
"The website build itself was on time and handled really professionally"
"Fast, faster was the brief, delivered with an 100 speed score from Google. The ongoing development is amazing."
"I wouldn't use anyone else for this! They really know their stuff!"
"SO Marketing create all of our design work for printed items from brochures, catalogues through to simple things like inserts on flyers into packages and boxes. Amazing help as always. "
"So Marketing have designed my business cards and other literature and it looks great and the finish is really professional"
"All of our printed material design is great. No complaints and would highly recommend SO Marketing to anyone who needs that!"
"Superb service on our literature over the years!"
"Our E-commerce facilities integrating with our payment provider in the website have been so useful especially since March 2020 when we found a lot of people who historically would come to see us moved online! Post-pandemic this has continued to be used widely across the organisation. "
"Can't fault them. They have built us a Magento store that performed admirably and are currently helping us through our Magento 2 upgrade / conversion strategy which is challenging to say the least. "
"We have our site integrated with our warehousing / EPOS system, which is very complicated, Amazon, Ebay, payment processors, accounting systems, SO marketing have done every one of these and continue to support it and develop it 8 years later. "
"SO Marketing have now integrated our e-commerce store with our Google Ads, Facebook Ads and Hubspot CRM which is now bringing into one central place, a way to measure conversions from marketing activity. "
"SO Marketing have supported us by creating social media content, and in our industry that's no mean feat as it's hard to talk about cranes! But it's been something we've been working together on and it's way beyond our skillset so it's been invaluable. "
"Our social content has worked out very well. We provide a framework of content and the team at SO rejig it into some kind of sense! Their 2020 campaign plan of 'saturation' content seems to be one that with putting the right resource towards it would work very well for us! "
" It's been a real help knowing they can just dive in to something we need, they have all our assets as a library and they can advise us of what will work well and what won't. "
"the team offered us some great advice when it comes to the strategy around why we do certain things, what implications there are, fully backed up with research and knowledge. It was quite the revalation to understand why designers do what they do. "
"The strategy of design was good though they tried to get their ideas through, our team were a bit attached to elements of our old brand and we came to a good compromise! "
"Since the first recommendation to goto Magento that was literally THE business decision that moved us forwards 10 years overnight. The investment has been repaid hundreds of times over and has been the most simple thing we could ever do to work with the team at SO, recommend them to others and be proud to call them our business partners. "
"We sell quite a bit through our website and this has gone from 0 - 40% of our transactions in about 3 years, and this seems to be an increasing trend for us. "
"SO Marketing was tasked with developing an SEO strategy that would help CLD Fencing make a smooth transition from their old website to a new one. The challenge was to maintain the company's existing search engine rankings while also optimising the new site for improved search engine visibility.
Right from the start, SO Marketing demonstrated their expertise in the field of SEO. They conducted a comprehensive site audit to identify areas of improvement and developed a plan to optimise the new site for search engines. They also performed extensive keyword research to identify the keywords that would be most effective for CLD Fencing's target audience.
One of the most impressive aspects of SO Marketing's work was their ability to keep CLD Fencing's existing search engine rankings intact during the transition process. This was achieved through careful planning and execution, with a focus on minimising any potential negative impacts on the company's online visibility.

"We have been working increasingly on SEO with the team at SO over the last few years, and this has accelerated recently with their additional recruitment. of more internal resources. With them pushing us to think about quality content it's been graddually going up the rankings combined with the age of our domain and site now which are all helping the ranking factors. The reports are clear and are helping us to understand all of it in non-SEO geek language. Now that Rebecca is on the team she's really moved us forwards"
"Our organic rankings have increased significantly thsi year due to a campaign by Simon and the team at SO Marketing and regular copywriting, blogs and creating a backlink strategy that has helped this. This is showing in an increase in leads year on year. "
