I have to say I was reluctant to give Hibu a shot. My rep Steve ** is a driven individual especially given his many years with hibu some of us lose our passion not Steve! He listened and was key at the redesigning of our website, follows up with me personally all the time offering something new to try to drive more leads our way, goes over the numbers, and how to drive them higher. Since we started with hibu hits to our website are up 93%!

Kurt ** & Ron ** was just so positive, friendly, helpful, professional, and very knowledgeable. I would recommend either one & or Hibu to take care of any customer service & product knowledge that you might have. They both made the experience hassle and stress free. Kurt is a great person to have onboard to represent the Hibu company. Thanks for everything! Thank you, Granite City Interiors.

HIBU IS A SCAM. They take advantage of small businesses. They were very good at sales and getting us to join. Once we joined, the communication was awful and it took days to weeks to get a response. They also left my personal phone number on an AD and it hasn't been changed for weeks. Our entire website was completely changed without our permission. They do NOTHING to help, no one knows any answers and every person just redirects you to another department. The sales rep was very unprofessional and clearly did not value us as a client. They also don't let you cancel even though the service is awful.
Thank you for your understanding during our recent investigation regarding your Hibu advertising. We apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced and are pleased to be able to resolve the matter in a mutually satisfactory manner.

I signed up with Hibu last spring because I wanted to automate more of my business and free up some time from copywriting and setting campaigns. I was assured they would be fully taking over my FB ad sets and writing copy for my e-comm POD business. They promised results and promised to see positive increased engagement.
None of this turned out to be true, I wasted so much money on them and was locked into a 6-month contract. At one point a new manager on my account had called me to "check-in" and he had asked how everything was going, politely I expressed my concerns and experience with Hibu thus far and the disappointment in not seeing any ROI. I mentioned I would not be extending my contract and he hung up on me. I brushed that off and just decided to call back at the 6-month mark to cancel. I had thought everything was canceled but was still charged for 2 additional months, so I had to call again to cancel. Now it seems like we are all settled and canceled, but that was an additional $700 wasted after I had thought I canceled. Lame.
I did run a test on Etsy and Instagram with my own campaigns compared to Hibu on FB, and the results were much better than I was getting from Hibu. After looking through the ads they ran, the copy was garbage and there was no hook or CTA. Not sure who they are hiring or what their requirements are for their copywriters or social media managers, but it doesn't seem to be adequate. I have since run more ads on FB and in one month my ads outperformed theirs over the last 8 months.
Just to really drive this home, I would like to mention that I had been getting engagement and sales from my own FB ads prior, and since working with Hibu, I didn't make a single sale or get hardly any engagement from their posts. Maybe for other services, they are a good option, but for e-comm, they really don't have the expertise to follow up with the promises they make.

Dennis approached me earlier this year just like most of the phone calls I get from telemarketers, but Dennis came in to see me in person and when I found out what he does and that he was local it pushed me over the edge to start because marketing is something I always knew I had to do eventually and with the solution and price that Dennis presented me, it was hard to pass up. So far Dennis has set the right expectations with me and delivered on everything he has told me thus far. He helped me design a logo, took care of the website design and everything looks better than I could have ever imagined compared to what I had prior to partnering with Hibu. As a small business owner, these are the kind of things we value is a trusted partner to help us grow.

Updated on 12/14/2021: Update to my previous review about HIBU. Someone at HIBU contacted me about my review on ConsumerAffairs, they have put my account under investigation. My ads, that I have pre-paid for, have been paused since last week. Still no answers ... DO NOT WORK WITH HIBU. Can't stress that enough.
Original Review: DO NOT do business with HIBU. Absolute SCAM. The sales person tells you complete lies after you ask VERY specific questions. Then after you've signed your contract (even though you don't realize you are signing a six month contract) all they do is offer their apologies. I am stuck paying them $300 a month and have had ZERO sales as a result. I'm pretty sure they aren't even running ads, they are just pocketing the money. 19 clicks in one month is a complete JOKE.
I wish I would have read other reviews before getting involved with them. They bill you at the beginning of your month and if you are even one minute late in paying, they WILL HARASS YOU DAILY with phone calls and emails. I'm paying for nothing but apologies NO sales. They should truly consider becoming a non-profit because I'm donating to their paychecks. That's about it ...
The most recent pause that you refer to was due to non-payment on your account. When payments are not received in time the advertising is paused until the payment is made to become current. On 12/08/21 a payment was made and your Social product was running.

I had the pleasure of working with Jen ** and I am happy to announce, she is the very best marketing specialist I have spoken to or worked with. As a lifelong master mason & the owner of Old Colony Masons, Quincy, Ma., I needed help with online marketing. After talking to an unlimited amount of marketing companies over the years, I finally found a true professional with Jen **. Jen is different than most digital marketers. She learned everything about the masonry contracting business before offering marketing advice to us. That was key in my opinion. How can a marketing company sell marketing without knowing you're business first?
What's most important to my businesses success she asked, driving people to my website or making the phone ring. "Making the phone ring", I replied. Jen certainly did that for us and a whole lot more. We now get people not only calling to schedule onsite estimates but customers scheduling through our online forms. Jen will help you to build an email database, the ability to sell without ever talking to your customer, she builds an easy method for customer to write testimonials & she will help you get reviews.
Jen increases your Google & Bing rankings quickly. We now are listed on top of search engines. I thought my website was great but Jen was able to upgrade that too and she made it interactive. My customers love that. She allows us to dictate our marketing budget, I dictate how much help we need with SEO, posts, blogs, analytics, etc. I'm no longer on a specific, made for everyone marketing plan. Jen set us up with helpful plug in's, she expanded our reach and she turned my already successful company into a booking machine.
If you think your marketing pro is doing a good job, call Jen **. She will surprise you with her knowledge, experience & her ability to grow a business. Jen is not a young kid trying to make their bones. She is a marketing master and she tailor builds a plan that will work for your individual business. Old Colony Masons highly recommends hiring Jen **. Let this incredible person take over your company's marketing and she will give you more than just a return on investment. She will literally grow your business from day one.

It is too bad that you can't leave less than a 1 star rating. Hibu is probably the worst company I have ever worked with. In the 6+ weeks we have been doing paid Google search with them we received 4 phone calls that cost us over $750 each. After bringing this to their attention I was told that they could optimize the program. If they were actually managing my campaign wouldn't they see that the program is not working. Why did I have to bring it to their attention? I am looking for a Marketing Partner and not a company that just bills me each month and results don't matter. The digital market is tough and have been taken advantage before.
I asked my rep and my rep's manager what percentage of my advertising budget actually goes to Google. When I called in to the toll free number I was told there NO FEE to manage my advertising because they get paid from Google. According to their Terms and Conditions this statement is FALSE as it clearly stated a percentage of what we pay them is allocated to their fee. When I asked my rep and his manager I was told that information is not available to them and above their pay grade. I have seen online and told by others that their fee is 50% of my budget to manage the campaign.
Nowhere on the agreement is the management fee listed to run my Google Ad Words. I have been talking with other REPUTABLE agencies and we would pay Google directly on our own account and pay them an agreed upon amount to manage the advertising. I have been quoted anywhere from 12-33% which is transparent and something that Hibu does not care about. If you are looking to flush your money down the toilet Hibu is your company. If you are looking for results it won't be coming from Hibu. BUYER BEWARE!
We have made several attempts to contact you to review your advertising concern that was first brought to our attention 11/11/21. Please call Hibu Customer Service within the next 3 business days. If we don't hear from you, we will assume the concern has been resolved and we will close our investigation.

**BUYER BEWARE- ** Hiring Hibu for their web services has been my biggest mistake for my business yet. The business model is 3-fold: DISPLAY/SEARCH/REPUTATION. The promises of support and customer care were overpromised and under-delivered! Their Dashboard provides "measurable metrics" but their program and internet intelligence has done absolutely nothing for my business, yet they still continue to get paid.
I have spoken with my sales rep, his boss and the corporate cancellation line on numerous occasions and it's a run-around that reminds me of a "6-month contract." "Just give it a little more time" is a common statement that I have heard from this vendor; it's been over two months and they continue to state they are going to try new things and do this and that- yet nothing changes.
In summary, Hibu is the only winner here. Instead of standing behind their product and earning their money, they threaten collections after a failed partnership. In hindsight, I now look over the reviews of potential companies and wish I had done my research on HIBU before going under contract with them because I have found too many negative reviews to count! Do yourself a favor and stay far away from Hibu.
We are sorry we weren’t able to resolve your concern, but thank you for your time on our attempt to come to a mutual resolution.

They do not warn you when an auto renewal is due and if you notice and call them to cancel, even four days in, they refuse. They then charge you for the whole month. For me it was a PPC campaign. I was on pause and had told the salesman that we were too busy to accept new leads and wanted to cancel the campaign. I let them talk me into pausing it. When it came time to come off of the final allowed pause I was charged for renewal. When I noticed months later, I called 4 days into the month I discovered it. I told them I wanted to cancel, I was told that I had to wait until the end of the month. I was charged for the whole month even though I had called on the fourth.
Additionally, they had sent emails reminding me that the pause was coming to an end and asked if I wanted to remain on pause. I did and responded. I did not receive an email asking if I wanted to go active at the end of the final allowed pause. I recommend you stay away from a company that operates this way. If you do go with them and want to pause your campaign, I highly recommend you cancel it when you don't need it and start it up again when you need it.

The representative tells everything they will do for marketing, help, and not showing options of budget for digital marketing. They tell us in beginning they have all knowledge to do it. We want the way it should be. It takes so much time and billing they say after launching will start but it starts as soon as we sign the contract. Google connections they don't do it. It takes time and 2 months nothing happens. The representative goes away without replacing anyone who helps. Always says call support team. Till today I do not have a single customer through this marketing campaign. Social media campaign they are doing without social media connection? How it will work and charge for it in addition to displaying ads means without doing connections.
They try to do marketing. Says will try this one then it did not work then try another one or ask for an increased budget. This company should know where it works in what type of budget. They don't start from a lower budget at all. If you hold the payment they suspend the marketing even after showing the proof of payments. I am spending more time and money than before doing marketing then work myself. This is a waste of money not giving results as the money we pay them. I will never recommend them at all. In this pandemic, I thought I will get my business back on track as they promised but says the contract only will change it but not allows to change it. I have paid payment but not resolving yet.

We are a small business that had a terrible experience with Hibu. We had a 6 month contract with Hibu for several services and tried to terminate our contract at the end of the 6 month period (with adequate notice as defined in the contract). The sales rep was pushy and would not assist with the termination until you were forced to watch a 6 minute video about how much they did for your company. Be sure you know what you are getting into and how to terminate your agreement. I would not recommend getting locked into their service agreement.
We are sorry that you were not satisfied with our service during your request for cancellation. I researched your account and found that upon your request to cancel your sales representative offered to set up a meeting in person or Zoom to assist with the cancellation process. There was no response to the request to set up a meeting. Sales then emailed a video with the subject line "Susong Dermatology's Please watch before Canceling- Instructions Included!". This video included the phone number to our cancellations team and it was advised that you would needed to call the number provided in the video to request cancellation.

We hired a digital strategist on Thumbtack to later find out he is a sales rep for Hibu (when he already took our credit card info, and then connected our social media pages with Hibu) so we had no idea that we were “hiring” them. Our experience with Hibu has been terrible from the beginning, our Google my business got suspended when syncing it to their dashboard, and was suspended for a month, we’ve gotten maybe 2-3 calls from their google ads in 2 months (all from people that live 6 hrs from where we are based), no messages or comments on their Facebook ads and we are spending $1200 a month.
Our Facebook ads were down for 1-2 weeks, then it was finally up and it was the wrong ad. Been trying to cancel but the company says the sales rep and his manager have to cancel it and then they state they can’t cancel it, so basically nobody is able to. But somehow they are all able to set the payment account? If we were getting ANY type of results we would be okay with spending that amount of money but with no results, no customer service, and no help. Don’t make the same mistake we did, DO NOT HIRE THEM.

We purchased Hibu online Google advertising program for which we saw very little increased activity. My big complaint is they have a system to ask your customer to rate your company and services. The problem is they do not transfer over to Google automatically unless the customer presses a special Google button. So we have 4 new 5 star reviews that do not show up on Google and Hibu says they have no way to transfer the review if the customer doesn't hit the magic button. Google reviews are what matters in the internet world and having reviews on Hibu is good but these reviews should transfer automatically to Google especially with what Hibu is charging for their services.
Based on the research of your concern we have determined that no error has occurred. We appreciate your understanding during our investigation.

Covid-19 rules and guidelines set forth by the State and County governments made communicating our plans for our weekly service quite a challenge. Without the use of the Hibu listings dashboard, things would have been more difficult. It is possible to change our hours on hundreds of internet search engines from one dashboard. That made things a lot easier. Hibu's listing management tool is a great investment.

It all sounds great, but words are as they say, cheap. Let's start at beginning. They drop names like Google and Microsoft. They toss out "Business Partners", "Certified" "Only" and wow you with stats and impressive numbers. So you sign up. They interview you (mine was 3 1/2 hours) with a "specialist" to get to know your needs and your business model. And then all the hype has to be met with the actual work.
That's where it all went down hill. I waited three weeks, four weeks, five weeks and nothing. I called around week four and left a message with the "Account Coordinator" or whatever they called them but nothing. Around week six I called my salesperson. He said he'd check and then told me that she had been sick and out for several weeks. Hey, it happens I thought so no big deal. He promised me that I would have some things to review in a week. Around week nine I called him again. He told me that they had (and these are his words) an 8,000% increase in business over the same time period as last year and they were so, so far behind in the production department. I congratulated him on the success of the sales department and for some odd reason felt lucky to be apart of the wave!
Finally, I got a file of what the site would look like and rough, very rough draft of some of the verbiage. Unfortunately, they missed the entire concept of my business. I train athletes online from all over... they had me offering specials on in house classes and my service area was the home town I lived in. They actually wanted my hours of operation to verify with Google!
Ok, another mistake but it was not fatal so let's move on. After another brief discussion with my Sales rep, I was assigned a new "Account Coordinator". Onward and upward, right... no! The next draft was not just sophomoric, it lacked luster, interest and a reason to read on. I ended up re-writing the entire series of pages, callouts, dropdown, etc. I did that on my free time and with my schedule that took about 2.5 weeks. Mind you, we are now entering close to 14 weeks AFTER, I was told we'd have a live site in four to six weeks.
After sending in my copy, it took them almost two weeks to start to send me proofs to review. As anticipated, changes, revisions and more changes. Another couple weeks. And, another "Account Coordinator". But here is the REAL RUB #1. After a couple of back and fourths with my new Coordinator, I told her if this doesn't get going soon, I'm cancelling everything! Guess what, my Sales Rep called me and chewed my #$$ for saying that. He actually went off the deep end and really lit me up! I called back after he hung up on me and asked to speak to a Supervisor or an Account Exc. I did get a call back from them and I explained what happened. I told them perhaps he had a bad day or something was going on in his personal life but I was willing to work with him because (and I have no idea why, but I still believed what he sold me on).
Fortunately for me, they took him out of the loop and I got a new Account Coordinator and I no longer had a salesperson to work with. Blessing or not... that is still a question! Again, onward and upward. At this point it all started to become a blur. I have no idea when my site went live, but I am assuming since the are still holding me to a 12 month contract it was December.
We started this odyssey in July. Somewhere all the way I got another new Account Manager. He actually told me what they sold me wasn't really anything that was going to work for me and he convinced me to just go with hosting. And now, I thought I was done in October or November (because I told my account manager via email and telephone that I was cancelling). I find out they want to still charge me for December/January. I'd say if you are looking at Hibu as a tool to help grow your business, understand that it won't. You will just get frustrated, ignored, passed from one person to the next, confused with which department does what and be throwing your money away. Hibu - Highway Robbery!

Towards the end of September, 2020 I contacted Debby ** about the services she had to offer related to digital marketing. I was looking to do online advertising and I had worked with her before (she was not with Hibu at the time). I went with a package that included listings, reviews and Google ads. At the time, Debby failed to inform me that there was a 6 month contract. I didn’t know about this, paid for the first month at the begging of October 2020. After I got zero results from the campaign, I decided to cancel. Called Debby on 10/29/2020 to inform her and her response has “I don’t know. I will need to talk to my boss, he is in meetings today so I will get back to you tomorrow" (10/30/2020).
She never got back to me and I didn’t think anything of it, because I was unaware of the contract. On 11/09/2020, I got an invoice for November’s campaign I called her back and at the point she informed me that there was a 6 month contract and that I couldn’t cancel because the grace period was over. I told her I had never signed a contract and she said that I had authorized by phone. I told her she never explained those terms to me or that I was authorizing a contract over the phone. She said she couldn’t do anything about it and to call the customer service number. I called the customer service number (the same day 11/09/2020) and went over the whole story with the customer representatives. They said the would look into and would get back to me.
Lydia **, another customer service rep called me on (11/10/2020) told me that a contract was emailed to me. I told her that Debby had not informed that I was signing a contract by phone. I also brought up the fact that they could have send the contract via Docusign or something similar. Her response was that they didn’t use them. Furthermore, the email with the contract that they had sent looked and had verbiage of an invoice . When I got the email, I didn’t go over it because I thought it was just an invoice for a one time purchase. At the point informed me as well that Debby had enrolled me for automatic payments without my knowledge too. Lydia’s response was that they couldn’t do anything that only the sales department could cancel my contract.
She said she couldn't promise me that they would but that they could if they wanted to and that she would forward my request to them. Afterwards, on 11/11/2020, Debby (in the sales department) calls me, she wanted me to give them another chance and that if I did I wanted to cancel afterwards they would cancel my contract. I told her I was disappointed with Hibu’s deceitful business practices, lack of customer service, and that I wanted to cancel immediately. It was almost two weeks since I had initially called her. Debby said she would have to talk to her upper management about it and they would called me. They didn’t call me so I reached out to her on (11/16/2020) and demanded that a called be arranged with her boss Cy **.
Talked to her and Cy the afternoon and all he told me is that he was sorry “the misunderstanding“ but that they would not cancel my contract. Overall, this has been a terrible experience. They keep telling me they can fix it and get me leads. At this point is not even about the leads. I don’t want to do business with a company that lacks basic ethics, like transparency, accountability, leadership and honesty. I want the 6 month contract to be cancelled, because that was not disclosed to me and I didn’t even know I was accepting it. I would also like to be refunded for month of November, 2020. They have continue the campaign against my will, and have charged me $645.81. On 11/19/2020, I was able to get them to pause the campaign so they wouldn't keep charging me, but it is set to start again on 05/27/2021.

From my personal experience, this company deliver a great looking dashboard and convincing sales conversations and ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ELSE! After four months of subscription to three of their products, they have delivered NO LEADS at all! I have considerable experience with pay per click, SEO and campaign marketing and have run a parallel campaign with good results to compare. Despite multiple complaints there are still no results and to add insult to injury, the company just repeats the contract terms so I have to keep paying for NO RESULTS until the contract expires! Buyer beware!
