Cory is hands down the most advanced expert I've worked with over my career. I respect not just his knowledge, but his approach. He makes sure to understand the broader picture of a business before zeroing in on the details that matter. His recommendations have been indisputably more valuable than his fees many times over. Cory's the real deal." -Datch H. - "Cory is truly an expert in the field of PPC. He always takes the time to help and is genuinely excited about the work he does. More importantly, he is passionate about helping others. I would recommend him for any work/projects involving PPC!" -Joseph K. - "After working with Cory for a number of years on hundreds of accounts I can, without a doubt, say he is in a class of his own when it comes to paid search / Google Ads / Bing Ads. He's not only saved us thousands upon thousands of dollars, he's also generated award-winning SEM performance for every account he's managed for us. He's a true professional who's mastered his craft. Whether I've needed his consulting expertise on agency-wide account audits, improving agency processes, or managing multiple large and complex accounts (lead gen and ecommerce), he's always come through. He has my highest recommendation." -Patrick K. - "I reached out to Cory about a sample project I was working on. As someone who has a lot of experience working with different businesses and extensive knowledge in SEM, he is someone I can reach out to for help.
