MMK Marketing's experience design process, focusing on customer insights and comprehensive ideas, fueled our innovation and growth to pivot the Microsoft Store customer support offerings online when we closed our physical retail stores. Their expertise in addressing pre and post-pandemic shopping behaviors was key to aligning teams and initiatives for a world-class customer experience. Thanks to their mapping expertise, we evolved our customer journey to support customers whenever and wherever they need support.

Despite our extensive research, we chose MMK Marketing for our second collaboration due to their invaluable customer journey mapping expertise. Together, we created a next-generation, world-class digital assisted shopping experience for our US consumers, with a focus on humanizing the customer journey. Their collaborative approach, flexibility, and adaptability allowed us to work under tight timelines and exceed our project objectives. MMK Marketing provided a clear vision and strategic plan, focusing on key areas such as assisted shoppers, pre-purchase and post-purchase assistance, and unassisted shopping experiences. Their work resulted in valuable insights and opportunities that humanized the assisted shopping experience. I highly recommend MMK Marketing to any organization looking to elevate their customer journey mapping and create a world-class assisted support experience with measurable results.

The decision to work with MMK was easy for Ellie Mae and the results have been more than satisfying. Within our fist 60 days we launched two new social platforms, initiated a round of new email marketing strategies and went live with our digital marketing strategy.

MMK worked with us to design a set of customized mats and risers to showcase PCs in our retail stores. They created a custom substrate for these mats that have been both functional and durable. These materials have lived in our stores for a few years with little to no visible wear and tear. We haven't needed a full refresh of this merch, since it launched

MMK's ability to communicate effectively with our key retailers and be creative has had a positive impact on our business. I highly recommend MMK as they have been a great addition to our business to help drive growth of the Char-Broil brand in Canada. I highly recommend MMK.
