"A sales call without stating the requirements. They introduce the company name but not their own, and yet they ask for other people's names. If they're going to make sales calls, why don't they research the company information beforehand? "You attract customers online, don't you?" they ask in an intimidating voice. When I answered that we don't attract customers online given our industry, they say in an intimidating voice, "Well, we do, to some extent, don't you?" Pricing ads, right? If I were to do that, I'd apply to Google myself."

"I run a designated driving service in Miyagi Prefecture. One day, I trusted a company that I heard was a Google agent. They guaranteed 600 to 1,000 views per month for a certain keyword, so I signed a contract, thinking that even if I received 10% phone calls, it would still be effective. Our company only received 80 views per month for this keyword, but they convinced me that they were reliable. They asked me to transfer the contract fee before the end of the month, so I did. After 20 days, we analyzed the results and found that there had been no calls from this ad. I will endure this as a learning experience. This is a very difficult expense for a small business like ours. Please do not be fooled by the term "Google agent" and the politeness of the representative! And if you think this company is suspicious, you should check online reviews before transferring money. To prevent others from becoming victims like me! They promised to report the number of views after one month, but I haven't received anything. I have a request for the owner. Please refund our money. Or please report how many views our ads receive each month. Please stop using only words to deceive us. Three months later, we received a report that apologizes for the delay. They initially guaranteed 600-1,000 monthly clicks, but after three months they reported only 300 views. They may have even forgotten the numbers they initially reported to us. We've received almost zero calls. We do know the number of calls we receive from other companies' advertisements, so this data probably can't be trusted either. I hope these scammers who cause so much harm to small businesses like ours disappear soon."

"I received a call from them when they first opened and they responded politely, so I signed a contract. They also said over the phone that they would provide monthly data reports via Zoom, but I didn't hear anything after that, so when I inquired again they said they would send emails every other month. This stopped after four months, and when I inquired again they called to say they would respond sincerely, but again, after two months I haven't heard anything back. To be honest, their sales tactics were just interested in getting me a contract. I don't recommend signing a contract."

"The person in charge is incredibly energetic! (laughs) Despite that, they've been very attentive and helpful throughout the process. They've tailored their advertising strategy to the construction industry, and I'm relieved to see a gradual increase in inquiries about construction projects. I've become busier with on-site work, so I'm grateful to be able to entrust them with this."

"Things seemed good when I signed the contract, but the terms of the contract were not followed on multiple occasions, and when I called, the person in charge was always in a meeting or away from their desk, so I couldn't get a response. I feel like I've been scammed. I don't recommend signing a contract with them."
