24-08-2011 'Ninehundred Communications have used Applegate for several years having started with the basic free listing.

Over the last few years Applegate have offered a range of paid for services that have allowed us to increase our visibility in the Directory and importantly in Google results.

Our Account Manager, LT, offers sound advice on choosing the right service that matches our budget and marketing plans. To us, the Applegate difference is the ongoing support after subscriptions have been paid. This allows us to work with our Account Manager so we get the best out of the service.

Our website analytics prove that Applegate are a consistent referer to our website, generating a significant amount of visitors month after month. Over the last 12 months over 10% of visitors to our Applegate pages clicked through to our website. Operating in a highly competitive market, this significant click through rate provides excellent value.'

Sentinel Plastics Ltd

16-08-2011 'We were extremely pleased with the recent filming of a promotional video which was produced with the aid of Applegate. As well as an extremely useful addition to our Internet marketing abilities, it will also be a valuable tool for our sales team. The video fully shows Sentinel's capabilities and services while enabling potential customers not to have to lose their valuable time travelling to do site visits. The video shoot was quick and unobtrusive, with the film team’s obvious experience and professionalism making the process hardly noticeable amongst the day's normal business activities.

Overall very pleased.'
