We chose Forge Digital Marketing to help us launch our CBD brand Queen City Green. The team at Forge has been fabulous to partner with. They have worked tirelessly to ensure our site was ready for launch, provided intelligent insights into the CBD industry to help us plan accordingly and have had a pleasant and positive attitude the entire time. We have received many compliments on the site that Forge created (even from other digital marketing agencies) and the social media efforts have been tremendous.
Due to their industry relationships, we were able to take advantage of some high profile opportunities which have already led to social validity and increases audience engagement. I would strongly recommend partnering with Forge Digital Marketing. We are excited about continuing and growing our partnership with them.
