With zero marketing and online presence at the beginning of 2024, Cereus pitched us with a thoughtful and well laid out 5-pronged plan to increase our social media presence, increase new hire applications, bring local store marketing plans to life and engage with our existing customers. I had very little experience in the world of social marketing, I took Cereus on with hopeful yet tempered expectations. Fast forward 11 months and I could not be more delighted with the results the Cereus team has provided. They continue to bring us along on a creative, insightful and relentless journey in pursuit of our goals and objectives. Going from zero online followers (customers) to thousands in just 11 months, speaks volumes to their approach, teamwork, vision and ability to execute relentlessly, at a very high level.

Working with Cereus has been a game-changer for my interior design business. From the start, their team took the time to understand my brand, my goals, and the unique vision behind House of Lex. They not only helped drive more traffic to my website but also created a strategy that led to real growth across my social platforms. Beyond the numbers, they brought clarity and alignment between my business and marketing goals, allowing me to focus on what I do best - designing beautiful spaces. Their expertise, creativity, and genuine dedication made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. I can’t recommend them highly enough!
