    I do not recommend. We are a pest control company that signed up in February to advertise on a bag for the busy ********** Market in the summer, and as of today, the bag still has not been started. Our busiest season is Spring/Summer and they did not have the bags done for that. I spoke with customer service manager who could care less about that. She kept saying I understand but they will be out soon. I had to ask for someone higher up. I would not recommend using this company for advertising!

    We apologize for the delay and the frustration you've experienced with the community farmers market bag advertising campaign. We deeply regret any inconvenience caused by the delay in delivering the bags to the market for distribution. Please know that we take your feedback seriously and are actively working to address the production and shipping issues. We have confirmed with the market that they are scheduled to be delivered this week.

    Since this review has been submitted we were able to speak with the client and address their concerns. We shared images of the bag with them by email and made arrangements with the farmers market for them to be able to pick up a bag when the market reopens in November.

    I paid to have my business on a community farmers market bag in my town in December of 2023. The market started in May of 2024. It is now almost July, the market is half over as it ends in early October, and still do not have a delivery date for when the bags will arrive to the market for distribution. My sales rep left and I had -0- follow-up from anyone at the Marc Group letting me know that the bags were delayed. I found out because I went to the first and second weekend markets and no bags were available. I emailed and was sent an email stating that production and shipping issues have been the issue. ** ****** **** ******* I should have read the reviews. * **** ** ****** * ****** *** ********* *** **** ******* ** *** ***** *** ****** ***** **** ******* *** ***** ***** *********** ** ********  Especially since their target market is small businesses that they are taking ********* of. ******* **** ** ** **** ***** ** ** *** **** ****** ****** ***** ** **** *******

    We apologize for the delay and the frustration you've experienced with the community farmers market bag advertising campaign. We deeply regret any inconvenience caused by the delay in delivering the bags to the market for distribution. We understand your disappointment with the lack of communication regarding the status of your order after your sales representative left. This situation falls short of the standard of service we aim to provide to our clients. Please know that we take your feedback seriously and are actively working to address the production and shipping issues. We assure you that we are committed to resolving this matter promptly and ensuring that you receive the advertising you paid for. Again, we apologize for the inconvenience caused. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we appreciate your patience as we work to rectify the situation.

    If you really wanted to rectify the situation then you would use different sourcing for your products and not keep having the same issues **** ******* - over and over again. *** ** *** ******** **** *** ********* *** *** *** ***** *** **** *** **** ******* **** ***** ** *** ****** **** *** **** *** **** *** ******* *** ******** ** **** ********* ** ***** ********** ********* *** **** you make promises that you can not keep. You called the store, even though you have my cell phone, and stated that it will be another two to three weeks. I want my money back!!!! If your guess of 2-3 weeks is correct then we will only have 3 weeks left of a weekly market. That means that out of 25 weekend markets, the bags will be available for likely 3 of them. You are going against your contract and agreement and I want my money back.!!! ****** ******** **** ******* ** * *******

    It took this company over a year to finally have the bags shipped to their final destination which was not the original locatuon that was initially agreed on. I however have still not been shipped my sample bag. Every time I contacted them there was the same excuses. They were out for printing, or in the process of being shipped, or they've been mailed out. Although they did offer to print business cards to try and smooth things over it does nothing for my complete advertising budget having been used and no chance of any business for that year. I also wish I had read the reviews prior to advertising as I will never advertise myself or recommend this company to anyone. To this date I have still not received a sample bag nor do I know when they are even going to be handed out to the public. I have never written a bad review in my life but email after email for a year with no results is very frustrating. ** * ***** **** **** ***** *** **** ******* ****** **** * ***** **** *******

    Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We value you as a client and appreciate your business. As communicated before, and agreed upon, we needed to change our original vendor for these community bags. We apologize that this order took longer than originally expected. The bags have been received by the *** ********** and they love them! They are excited to start using them for their community events. You should now have received photos of the bag showing your advertisement on it. As per our last conversation if your sample bag does not arrive to you this week please let us know and we would be happy to mail out another one to you.

    I recently had the pleasure of working with Jason at MARC Group Advertising, and I must say that the experience exceeded our expectations. Jason's professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to delivering top-notch service truly stood out. The team at MARC kept us informed at every stage of the project, addressing any concerns promptly and making adjustments as needed. This level of dedication and customer-centric approach truly set Jason and MARC Group Advertising apart from the rest. I highly recommend Jason at MARC Group Advertising for anyone seeking exceptional advertising services, especially for *** ******** bags!

    I’ve been working with Alex for the last two years to get my bags out to the ******* ******, They worked with my head office marketing department and were able yo put it all together, I absolutely love the bags and frequent the market to pick up a few bags to give out to my clients. It’s like a walking billboard. What they said they did and is why I agreed to do the second year on the bags I’m very happy with this decision and Alex makes it less stressful as he knows I’m extremely busy Would definitely recommend Alex from The Marc group.

    The Marc group is amazing! They work hard, print fast, and promote businesses with millions of impressions at a fraction of a penny. Their design team is quick, creative, and inspiring. What more could you ask for from their innovative Bagvertising program?
