What Tennessee businesses say about working with Maverick Marketing. Names and specifics anonymized at request — we connect prospective clients directly with references during evaluation.
Maverick rebuilt our paid media strategy and SEO foundation in parallel. Six months in, our blended CAC dropped 38% and organic traffic doubled. They tell us what's working AND what's not — which is rarer than it should be in this industry.
Local SEO was supposed to be simple. Two prior agencies told us it would take six months and never delivered. Maverick had us ranking in the top 3 for our primary geographic terms within 90 days. The Google Business Profile work alone changed our phone volume.
The AEO work is what set them apart. Our category is increasingly being decided in ChatGPT and Perplexity, not Google. Maverick was already running on AEO when we started looking; everyone else we interviewed was figuring it out.
Brand strategy work that actually moved the needle. They didn't hand us a 60-page strategy deck and disappear — they helped us roll it through every customer-facing touchpoint over six months. Closing rates went up materially.
Email automation we'd been wanting to build for years finally got built. Our welcome series alone now produces enough recurring giving to fund the whole engagement. Best decision we made all year.
They actually answer the phone and show me real numbers, not vanity metrics. When something isn't working they tell me and we change course. When something IS working they tell me and we scale it. Simple, but apparently rare.
On anonymization: Many of our clients operate in healthcare, professional services, financial services, and competitive consumer markets where publicly naming a marketing partner can be a competitive signal. We honor that. During an active evaluation we connect you with reference clients of similar size and industry who have agreed to speak directly with prospective Maverick clients.
