CyberAgent
The cost was about three times the market rate, but the consultant’s performance was below expectations.
The initial proposal seemed recycled and lacked practical solutions to address business challenges.
Operationally, the quality of data analysis and SEO advice was not high, and responses on Slack were slow. This led to delivery delays of 3-4 weeks due to capacity issues, making me hesitant to request work.

However, it ultimately had no effect whatsoever.

Although I wasn’t directly handled by them, I was not particularly impressed with the knowledge or skill set of the representative.
However, I did notice their efforts, as they came to the office and conducted work sessions.
[say]The representative seemed to be very busy with company tasks, and seeing them constantly drinking Red Bull made me a bit concerned.Others

Bilingual Digital Marketing Agency
Wasabi Communication
I have a very positive impression of the SEO consultant who worked with us.
Not only did they have excellent data analysis skills and deep knowledge of SEO, but they also effectively managed the team and consistently handled everything from analysis to execution and task management.
The price was also reasonable, ranging from 10,000 to 20,000 yen per hour, and they greatly contributed to the team’s growth and the improvement of the website’s performance.
Additionally, they performed automation tasks using Google Apps Script, and their technical skills were truly impressive.

Mediacom(GroupM)
I once had to reluctantly collaborate with a foreign company because ‘it was contracted by the headquarters, so it must be used in Japan as well.’
In terms of SEO, a highly expensive estimate was presented for on-page SEO for five pages, amounting to several million yen.
When I asked about the expected results with ‘What kind of results can we anticipate with this?’ the memorable response was ‘I don’t know.’
The content of the provided report only included obvious points, and I couldn’t receive the level of SEO service that I would consider satisfactory.
