“As a new business in the spring of 2020, we were in a perfect storm of challenges. Sales were slow; we had a virtually non-existent footprint on search engines. Funding was tight, and of course, we were in the middle of a global pandemic. You can imagine we had some skepticism when evaluating a partnership with Logical Position. However, we intended to be long-term players in our industry and knew this was a necessary investment. We were drawn to Logical Position because they were open and honest about the opportunities and risks of taking on this partnership.

We eventually started our PPC engagement and SEO soon after. We haven’t looked back since. Elyse Aufmann and Jordan Calo are first-class professionals and genuinely understand our business needs. Trash Cans Depot has seen tremendous growth through this partnership. We are so happy we decided to engage with Logical Position. We look forward to continued success with Logical Position!”
