Why This Matters
This case study demonstrates that the Three H’s (Honesty, Humility, Hard Work) methodology we developed serving locksmiths in 2005 scales to complex, regulated B2B industries like healthcare.
From Locksmiths to Healthcare:
- Same honest timeline setting (told them 6-12 months for meaningful results)
- Same humble learning approach (learned medical terminology from their clinical team)
- Same hard work ethic (manually optimized 200+ product pages)
Methodology That Scales: The 95%+ retention rate we maintain across all industries—from emergency locksmiths to HIPAA-compliant healthcare—proves our approach works regardless of vertical complexity.
Client Testimonial
“After working with 3 previous agencies that overpromised and underdelivered, Optymizer’s honest approach was refreshing. They told us it would take 6-12 months to see meaningful results. They delivered exactly on that timeline. We’ve been partners for multiple years now because they actually do what they say they’ll do.”
