“We’ve been working with CGI and Next! Ad Agency—and it’s been one of the best marketing decisions we’ve made. From our very first conversation with Ron Hatch, to our startup strategy session with James Schwark (who’s now managing our online presence like a pro), the entire experience has been seamless.

A special shoutout to Allie Atseff, our video producer, for keeping everything on track with creativity and care, and to Tim, who will be directing our shoot with both precision, vision- and creativity

Top to bottom—just an amazing company. Highly recommend hiring them if you’re looking for a team that truly delivers.“

“What a cool, eclectic place. Like walking into a modern art museum. They have been nice enough to allow Kiwanis Club to hold meetings in their board room. Thank you Dixon Schwabl!“

“John has been AMAZING with helping improve our SEO results in the Rochester area. Its hard to believe how quickly he re-designed our whole website and improved our search results. If I reached out about a change to the website it was done within the work day. Hard to find trustworthy people to help in the digital world with so many scams out there. I have found one! Very reasonable price and the highest quality of service. Can't recommend enough!“

“The order2go app has been a game changer for takeout orders @ my restaurant. Eliminates many timely phone calls during our peek periods. Customers love it as due the employee's. Customers love just picking up there food and having the transaction of paying already completed. I highly recommend it and, guarantee your takeout sales will increase.“

“Jeremy is truly a wizard when it comes to understanding the ebbs and flows of SEO. he helped my businesses website reach the top of google searches month after month which improved my inbound business and revenue. He genuinely cares about your success and helping you understand the power of SEO rather than just taking your money. I was confident in him and his business every step of the way. Can't recommend him enough!“

“Since working with next ad agency, our rankings have gone through the roof. In some search cues, we didn’t show up at all now we’re in the Google three pack. James Schwark and his team have been managing our relationship. His meetings are efficient, informative, and always helpful. As a marketing director, I had to convince our company to move forward with these essential services and James has made believers out of them. In addition to seo services, we also purchased a video showcase that will be shot in our offices In two weeks. The entire team at Cgi and next ad agency have been Above and beyond what you would expect- I highly recommend hiring them.“

“I grew up around the Democat & Chronicle morning, (Times Union afternoon), I use to be a newspaper delivery boy, handled the early morning and the afternoon at 1 point. The Times Union was discontinued years ago due to economical changes. $$$ I think during this time, Gannet took over USA today. The Gannet group has been around a long time.When I was a kid, Mr. Paul Miller was the "top dog" here in Rochester.A respected man, he was the publisher I believe. I knew a man that worked for Gannet and he told me years ago, Mr. Miller would walk down in to the print and publishing rooms and just say hi. The "old school" style, the working man. But times are changing, much is online now, digital. But the D and C is still published and delivered daily, which I think is only fair. Some people do not own, nor want a computer. To each their own. I remember when the D and C, and Times Union were pages thick, now, except Sunday's which has even changed is nowhere near its depth. There use to be so many stories, ads, jobs offered, but things have changed. I still grab an occasional Sunday paper, just for old times sake, even though I can probably find print online regarding a story.“
