Hi, hello my name is Gavin. I own Sargisons Jewelers, one of the better shops in Hobart. And we've been here for a long time. We did feel some time ago that we are getting a little bit stale. So I got in touch with David, he's worked great things for us.

I think it's nearly getting over three years now. I first met David personally but I was also impressed by his professionalism both in his appearance and his premises… When it turned out that I did need somebody in marketing to help, I first of all thought of him because I had other advertising agencies in the past and I found them, that's a lesson less than perfect.

I was extremely impressed with the first TV ad that the David made for us, especially considering the relatively low cost if it's. It was of an absolute, you know 100 percent totally professional product, it could have been made by one of the big networks.

That impressed me greatly and I've had… of feedback from my clients on that because performing us makes a statement about quality and we're about quality and we need a quality ad. We don't want out the door thank you, that's of no good to us whatsoever. And the quality the advertising reflects on according to the business, the same is thea quality David has reflects on the business.

The best thing I remember about our initial contact professionally, it was David’s ability to listen. I had a problem, he sat and listened to it, he asked me very some questions about the market I was looking for, the age group, the demographic, those sorts of things which his ability to listen and ask the right questions really impressed me.

We ended up with a package not just simply you should do TV advertising or you should do radio or you should do newspaper. that was a whole package that included them, Facebook, website and TV advertising. He warned me of a few places where he didn't think it was real good value for money, which also impressed me. Especially in the area of that we were targeting, it worked extremely well.

Times have not been easy but in the time of our Association with Inferno, our figures have made a steady increase. I would recommend it to anybody any business of this size that needs a personal touch. Especially now industry because our industry is very personal, its very emotional, you need to get it right, not to be tacky, it can be funny but not course, it needs a solid touch and I think that's what we got from Inferno.

Hi, I am Kim Trethowan, I am actually owner of 13ecab in Hobart, Tasmania. I have been in the taxi base business now for 10 years, running 13ecab now for close to two years.
What we do is we provide a Taxi service to everybody in Hobart which comprises of Sedan Wagons and wheelchair accessible vehicles. I have been dealing with David and his team since 2012. In that time my experience with David has been wonderful. Not only are they our marketing company, they have also become very close associates where we can actually pass ideas on to them.
Some of our ideas are left field and they actually help us in and sort of help us bring those ideas into play. Over the years David and his team have been wonderful. We have actually started our new phone number I suppose what you would call a franchise. We would have to create a number which nobody in Tasmania had actually heard before. Now in that time we have actually had to rely on David to help us with our new jingle which is a fantastic jingle. We have actually gone to newspaper advertising, we have done TV advertising, we have done radio advertising. We have also actually did a letterbox drop which they assisted in helping us write and distribute, so hands on everywhere.
One thing that I also like that they do is they help us with other needs which is our stationery. So any stationery needs, I can contact Stacey and Stacey is more than accommodating to give me prices, etc. and go down that road.
Would I refer David and his team to anybody else? Yes I would. In the two years that we have actually had to experience David and his team, they have been very accommodating. We get visits from David on a regular basis because he is concerned that our business is going in the right direction. Like I said in the past they have assisted us on many levels with your taxi company or any other business, he is wonderful and no pressure. He listens to everything that we suggest, he gives us creative ideas on that, tells us whether he thinks they would succeed, etc. definitely would recommend him.

Hi, Stuart Headley, owner of Cartridge World in Hobart, Tasmania. We have been using Inferno marketing and design for now on 8 years. And prior to that the previous owner of Cartridge World was using them for 7 years.
We like dealing with Inferno Promotions designs. David always comes in with a solution to reach our customers and he is not always in here just trying to sell us something that we possibly don’t know.
We also like Inferno Promotions because when we are dealing with our customers, the very simple design what we are doing, we are just advertising a very simple product in printing cartridges, business machines and we find that David understands that and is not coming to us with I suppose to be in field marketing ideas that may be not quite fit the businesses some people try to push down.
I find that David is very much in touch with what is actually happening in the business community. And from time to time he will come in and say, look, this is what’s happening and you want to hang off into that, and quite often that suits us.
We do refer David’s business regularly to other small and medium size businesses that we come in contact with, and it’s pleasing to see that time they too some time later will pop up on TV and we do know that they are David’s ads. A very good way at communicating with people.

Hi, I'm Rob from McCann’s Music center in Hobart! David and Inferno has been doing our advertising for some twenty years now and we've been very happy with the work that he does for a number of reasons, mainly because David has a lot of experience in radio and he is in the advertising field for quite a number of years not only in Tasmania but also in the mainland. He's been able to I guide us through what would work best for our business, and we do ask a lot of questions and he does come back to us with the sort of information that’s very, very useful for us to make a decision about where we spend our advertising dollars because it's difficult to know where to spend that these days.

He doesn’t come in into us with a bunch of proposals suggesting we advertise here, advertise there, and advertise somewhere else. He is very open with the proposals and takes the way what we are trying to achieve and comes back with recommendations which invariably works out very well for us.

What we can’t blame ourselves if nothing goes right because we always get the proofs though or and suggestions through to us. We are able to look at and confirm whether we are happy with them or any adjustments need to be made, that’s always done efficiently and once again submitted to us for our confirmation whether to go ahead or not, so we can’t complain about the workmanship because we have got control over the way through. So, that’s another reason why if you are spending your advertising dollar, you want to have something over how its spent and the quality of work that proof where that money is going, so once again I would thoroughly recommend it to give them a try and experience it for yourself because it is excellent work.

hey, I am Farrel, I'm the Dealer Principal of Horizon Motorcycles which we are standing in now and this is a business that’s Inferno Promotions has been helping us with marketing for the best part of 15 years.

David and the crew at Inferno are very helpful in looking at different marketing strategies, things that are out of the ordinary perhaps from the standard sort of thing that most people do, it’s not just radio advertising, sometimes it might be TV, it might be social media, there's a whole range of different strategies that David and the guys at Inferno actually put together. It's all about trying to help us market, not just the business but also the products that we have, and the services that we provide.

They come up with a lot of creative ideas that we can either take or not take obviously but the objective is to understand our business and help us with promoting the business as best we can.

David is very hands-on, you come into the shop on a regular basis but it's not to try and sell us stuff, it’s comes in and says, you know how things are going, you know what's happening in the business, what sort of things do we need to look at for the upcoming months planning ahead. If I sort of say, look I have gotten my head around that or I got the dollars to spend on any advertising at the moment or whatever it might be then, you know it's just a discussion and a touch.yeah let's look at getting down and doing something a bit later on when things might be a little more comfortable.

One of the interesting aspects of running a business like this is you don’t want to be stuck having to look-through a heap of different proposals from different ideas for marketing and those sorts of things, you need somebody to come along and say, well look, you know what's going to help you, what's the best way to go about it. And when David comes in and he talks about things that or asks us questions about the business to try and identify what direction we want to take and what sort of issues we may be heading or andstrategy, develop a strategy that is actually designed to make that did not just keep coming in and just throwing different ideas and saying I'll try this, try that, try this, just looks at the businesses, okay this is what seems to be happening, this is potentially something that we could look at doing and then with doing that as opposed to saying 100s of different ideas coming out and trying to pick and choose. We get one good strategy and then we can go with it all or not as the case may be, but we can work in that way, we work very closely together as far as that's concerned.

The guys at Inferno often help us with stuff that's not actually in their brief such as like a website which is actually developed offsite by somebody else but they prepared to come along and so to say, you know this is some of the ideas that we can put forward and I have a look at this and that’s not about getting paid for that it's just about helping my social media sort of things, you know we do that in house, we have got a very capable person as far as that's concerned but David and the guys, they come along and they actually say, well how about thinking of this and what about using this strategy in that regard and there's no ongoing costs so anything that… just part of the overall commitment to us as a business that's been developed over the time of us being involved with David and Inferno itself.

Through the experiences that we've had over many years have been involved with David and Inferno I would have had no hesitation whatsoever in actually recommending or referring people to Inferno for their marketing needs.

Hi, I am Rob and I currently work for Australian Laser Charge. I have previously owned 2 businesses in the last ten years and David has in that time through Inferno promotion looked after all their advertising and promotion work. And this business was a retail store where we dealt with cartridges and second was an online store and now we deal with cartridges again and I look after all the advertising and promotion, and I am still with Inferno.

The thing that I like about Inferno and what's kept me with Inferno for the last ten years or more is the fact that they will always listen to what we need and they will tailor a solution that is really hopefully going to work for us. It's always reviewed after that David comes and sees is it working for you and invariably if it's not working then he will change it because he's genuinely concerned about whether the business is succeeding or not.

One other things I really like about Inferno Promotions is that when you come to them with the problem, they look at each individual advertising medium to see where the solution my best buy for you. Right from the very beginning when we were running our first retail store we actually started from scratch and we had little idea about the best form of advertising to really make the business work. David came to us with a number of different ideas encompassing TV, Radio and newsprint and when we looked at only alternatives we started with radio and we developed from there to the stage that we had a full-on 30-second TV commercial, that was about two years down the track.

The thing that really impressed me was that David looked at each individual market, he talked to us and worked out who our target market really was and then he looked to each individual radio station and TV station to see who was actually watching those programs and then he would advise us the best station, the best program and the best time slot to be on. And we found this an incredibly and effective way of advertising.

Since the days we owned our first retail store we have moved on quite a lot and I ran an online business for some years before moving into my present position. One of the things that's really impressed me during that time is Inferno’s website development. We had an experience in this business that I am presently in where we went to another supplier for some time and the website ended up in and absolute shambles. I call David into the rescue and we suddenly started getting excellent results on our website again with hits, follow-up, enquiries and web-based orders.

AdWords in particular was always a bit of a mystery to us how it actually worked and when we were with the other supplier, they took AdWords on for us and basically made a mess of it. David came and explained AdWords to us, how it worked and the fact that you actually need to have maintenance on your website, maintenance on AdWords all the time to maximize the hits on your website and to maximize the benefits.

Unlike some companies that do website maintenance and nothing really happens as a result. When we used inferno we found a big difference is that website maintenance and the result was a very measurable result. We could actually see the figures increasing and we could see the changes they were making actually bringing positive results.

When other people ask who do you use for advertising? I say without hesitation, Inferno Promotions. The next question invariably is would you use them again? And the answer very simply is, ‘yes.’ And then when the question why is asked, the answer is again simple. They have such a broad market understanding that encompasses basically events that are happening in the whole of Australia that affect the market. And with a finger on the pulse you know you're going to get positive results every time. I would definitely recommend Inferno, for small to medium business experts.

Hi, I am Sharon and I work at General Practice Plus in Hobart. We are a group of doctors and we have three locations across Hobart with about 25 doctors and we have engaged Inferno since 2013.

I guess the reason we engaged Inferno was our previous marketing company… and in the two years since I've been in this role, I have never met them or even heard from them, that’s certainly not be my experience with Inferno at all. They have been really helpful in helping us gain exposure to lots different areas and using different mediums including television, so that’s been quite interesting for us.

Inferno has done a whole heap of stuff for us, it ranges from brochure work, stationary, web hosting, televised work, social media, so basically everything we need from our marketing, Inferno does for us. I guess they have reached a broad spectrum of our patients, they do direct mail for us as well, they have done signage for us, pretty much everything that we need. Yeah, so that’s what Inferno does.

One of the key areas that Inferno has helped us with is web hosting, so we have recently created some new websites with our skin and travel clinics and one of the great things is that that Inferno just doesn't create it and just say that’s it, they give us a lot of input, we have heaps of input on it, we talk about it, we go back and forth constantly about what should go in, what shouldn’t go in and it ____ for our patients with our input, so that’s what great about Inferno.

I would definitely refer Inferno to other business. They have been really hands on in, their marketing techniques with us, we found them a pleasure to deal with, they are easy to get along. The different people that David have introduced us to, to help us along in his team are really good and approachable. They listen, they understand and they deliver.

Hi, I am Tania and I am the owner of Rae’s Florist in Hobart. We are a small independent florist shop mainly servicing the inner city of Hobart with walk-by trade and deliveries.

I have known David for a long time and Inferno has been looking after us for 20 years now, and he is the man to go through with any problem, any question, he is always there to help.

Being a very small business we don’t have much of an advertising budget. May even be David’s smallest client as far as I know, but he doesn’t come and try and sell me big advertising packages, he is just there to suggest good ideas and answer my questions when I have got them.

Even with a small advertising budget there was a time when David helped us to mount a very impressive television marketing campaign which increased our profile dramatically and he was able to do this very successfully as I said on a very small budget.

Inferno whether it’s David or any of the other guys there, always have time for us to talk about any questions regarding our marketing and are always there to help us find the right customers for our business.

Inferno understands customer profiles. They understand who you are trying to target. In fact David understands my mind so scarily, I am sure he understands everyone.

I would highly recommend Inferno for any business whether you are big or small, or retail service, I think these guys are good at what they do and I am sure that could help any business.

Hi, I am Andrew Henry from Harcourts, Kingborough. Inferno Promotions have been looking after my marketing since 2001 in multiple businesses I have owned. I have had nothing but good results from their suggestions and ideas that they have come up with incorporating my own and getting results… They target market by my clientele and it’s been quite interesting with the transitions with the different businesses I have had how that they adapt to each business and target market my audience, getting with the best results from my marketing and also from our clientele. Over that time that I have been with Inferno Promotions that I would and have done refer them to many of my friends and clients who seem to have been struggling in the industry although… and David and his team have assisted…. And I always got nothing but calls back thanking me for recommending David.
