Success stories

Challenge

Apex’s CEO, Tom Asciolla, had a straightforward goal: more leads. And although his industry expertise set him apart, past digital marketing efforts didn’t hit the mark. So it’s clear why Tom was skeptical when he was approached by yet another “Google Guy” – especially after hearing about a 3-6 month wait for noticeable growth. However, our transparent, no-contract approach sparked his curiosity

Solution

Starting locally was crucial. We needed to zero in on niche-based keywords, helping Apex take advantage of specific searches in their area. But that wasn’t the master plan. We knew that once momentum built, we needed to expand into more competitive keywords as well as more nearby counties. Because like investing, SEO can deliver compounded return. In other words, show Google you’re legit – and it’ll be far easier to start showing up for more competitive (but valuable) searches.

Result

Over 13,000 phone calls in 2 years. For reference, Apex averages over 540 phone calls a month as of August 2023. Not being on the map (literally) to ranking #1 on Google Maps in a 11-mile radius. 4,800 keywords ranking on Google, with 2,900 (60%) ranking in the top 5 positions.

Working with Hozio has shown us what real marketing looks like and how deeply it can impact a business when done with intention, talent, and genuine care. From day one, they listened—truly listened—to who we are, who we serve, and what matters most to our team at Angel Oaks Pet Crematory. They approached our business as if it were their own, taking the time to understand our customers’ behavior and the emotional nature of the services we provide. Their team is exceptionally skilled, swift in execution, and consistently thoughtful in their strategy. Hozio rebuilt and now maintains our website, and the results have been remarkable: increased visibility in our market, higher Google rankings, stronger local SEO performance, and a level of analytics insight that is nothing short of phenomenal. They think long term, bring fresh and innovative ideas to every meeting, and provide clear, concise reporting that keeps us informed and empowered. Shout out to Cooper! Thank you Cooper, you are truly the VERY BEST! Michael T., your talent is nothing short of amazing! I wish we could give Hozio 10 plus STARS!

We’ve had a great experience working with Hozio, especially with Erick, our Client Success Manager. He has been incredibly helpful in guiding us through SEO and website management. Erick is always easy to get in touch with, very communicative, and extremely receptive to feedback. He creates a space where no question feels too small and consistently helps guide productive, meaningful conversations. Overall, it’s been a seamless and positive experience. I would highly recommend Hozio, and especially recommend working with Erick if you have the opportunity!

It was such a pleasure working with this company. The entire process was smooth, professional, and well-organized. A huge shoutout to Joseph E., who created the website for the company I work with. Joseph’s communication was excellent, he was always willing to meet with us, and he truly listened to our feedback. He took everything we asked for and executed it perfectly. The final website looks amazing and represents our brand exactly how we hoped it would. Overall, this was a great experience and I would highly recommend both the company and Joseph to anyone looking for high-quality web development and great customer service.

my name is Ryan. I’m with Murray plumbing and I’ve been paying different companies a bunch of money for SEO for the last seven years to get no results at all until Hozio contacted me. It’s only been three months and I got a lot of keyswords already on the first page. They definitely know what they’re doing. I am pumped. My marketing manager, Cooper does an outstanding job. Explain things to me tells me how things are going answers all my questions Yes, and he must think I’m a pain, but he’s always there To answer my questions figure out problems and jumps on different ideas that I have to add to the website anybody out there this company won’t waste your time. I started over and had them build me a new website which is fabulous and like I said they did their thing and now I’m watching my rankings go up and up. You won’t go wrong thank you again Hozio and to my marketing manager Cooper
