Tech Studio Mac and PC Repair
Tech Studio Mac and PC Repair Case Study
Quick Summary: Full disclosure: Tech Studio is owned by Robert Portillo, the founder of Nimbus Marketing. Tech Studio was once located on world-famous Abbot Kinney for almost 5 years. When their rent was raised from $1,000 per month, to $10,0000 per month, they had to move. The move reduced their foot traffic and walk-in customer base by 100%. Quick wins were needed to replace the walk-in customers. Their new location had no signage or foot traffic so their search rankings became crucial.
Nimbus Marketing immediately started correcting and building citations. Top rankings and new repair check-ins skyrocketed quickly. We were so successful, that we put the two top competitors out of business, founded 10 and 14 years ago respectively. We know, because one of the competitor’s owner told us that his business nearly disappeared when Tech Studio moved into the new location ½ a mile away.

- Rankings Skyrocketed from 0 #1 rankings to 88 #1 rankings in 3 months
