Cindy Ren
Kickstart did an amazing job of helping us launch our new UK website, including database migration, google tracking, Shopify theme customisation and SEO tasks. We look forward to continuing our relationship!

Kate Adler
I have been working with Uppli for 6 months now and have seen an increase in sales during this time. Uppli goes above and beyond with helping me with things not just specific to marketing, but help with the website and other technical things that I struggle with. He is continually changing things up so we can continue to grow each month. I switched from a big company to Kick Start Digital and find this service with Uppli much more one-on-one specific to my personal business needs rather than just being another number in some big marketing firm. I look forward to seeing what the future months look like! A big thanks Uppli, it has been great working with you! Tarah

Tarah Spyve
Kickstart has definitely kickstarted my business and I am impressed with Uppli’s communication and willingness to help.
Thanks

Kickstart Digital has helped MyBlitz propel itself from a brick and mortar store to a thriving online business. Their expertise in creating our e-commerce store and setting up GA4 for tracking our e-commerce data has really helped us track our growth and understand our marketing spend! I would highly recommend their services if you’re looking to grow your business online.

Faisal Khan
I recently had the pleasure of experiencing exceptional service from Kickstart Digital, which resolved a complex issue related to Google Analytics 4 connectivity for our business.
We’ve tried to solve this issue for a month, including using Google support, but all without results. Kickstart Digital demonstrated not only technical expertise but also a genuine passion for providing outstanding service. They were able to solve the problem within an hour. It was evident that they genuinely cared about the success of our business and were invested in ensuring the GA4 connectivity issue was completely resolved.

Olga Ivanova
I have been working with Kickstart Digital for the past few months, and I must say, it has been an incredibly positive experience. They have seamlessly managed my Google Ads, SEO, website development, and Facebook ads, delivering outstanding results.
From day one, their professionalism and expertise have been evident. They truly know their stuff, and have a sound understanding of the digital marketing landscape. Whenever I have questions or need assistance, the team quickly responds and provides insightful solutions!
One thing that sets them apart is their willingness to go above and beyond. Not only do they handle core services efficiently, but they also assist me with any ad hoc requests that I have. I have seen a significant improvement in my online presence and customer engagement since partnering with them and I’m excited to see where this goes.
