Rafael and Umbrella Deliver Above & Beyond

Rafael goes above and beyond to make sure his clients are taken care of. I am very happy to have him as my mentor and guide. The Umbrella products and services cover the full range of digital marketing that every business needs and I am proud to represent these folks. The entire Customer Service team is very responsive and truly care that issues get resolved promptly. Raf's training and industry experience is invaluable and the offerings are a great deal for local business owners to use to build and grow. I am happy to give 5 Stars!

Thanks to Umbrella

Thanks to Umbrella, our digital marketing business has tools that simplify and amplify what we provide our clients. We learned more talking to Raf than any other sales person. His straight forward, no non-scence approach was great!

"Your success is our success" rings true here.

"Your success is our success" rings true in their actions. Rafael Eri, Chief Growth Strategist & Business Consultant, in particular really took care of me during the orientation and he is still coming through for me when I run into issues. The Umbrella Team in general is constantly trying to help you win. Umbrella regularly presents innovative tools for us to add to our arsenal of offerings that we can present to our clients. That speaks well of their R&D department. The AI field is moving quickly and any agency that is not constantly innovating will quickly be overtaken. I'm happy to have a team behind me that will keep my agency at the forefront of technology.

Top tier partner serving my autonomy & small business growth

I have seen a lot of options when it comes to running one’s own agency. Being an agency that’s powered by Umbrella Local is the most efficient and effective avenue, in my opinion. I so appreciate the support and sharing of expertise in digital marketing. Special shootout to Rafael — seriously, so generous, empathetic, compassionate, incredibly knowledgeable, and simply and effectively - SUPPORTIVE. I get the best of both worlds, having my own business and the autonomy and flexibility that comes with that, while getting world class support and solutions to offer my clients. Much love and gratitude for the Umbrella team and for the high level solutions that they make it possible for me to offer to small business owners to reach their goals (while I reach mine).

I rarely write reviews

I rarely write reviews, but Umbrella has truly earned it. Over the years, I've invested tens of thousands of dollars into digital marketing tools, software platforms, training programs, and business systems. As a graduate of Full Sail University, I've had the opportunity to work with and evaluate many different technologies. Very few companies have impressed me the way Umbrella has. What stands out most is that Umbrella genuinely lives up to its name. Instead of forcing business owners and entrepreneurs to piece together multiple tools, services, and vendors, they have brought everything together under one true umbrella. The platform provides the resources, automation, and support needed to grow a business without having to hire an expensive launch team or multiple specialists. I also want to personally recognize Rafael for his exceptional customer support. As a veteran, I experienced some health challenges that temporarily pulled me away from my business activities. During that time, Rafael and the Umbrella team consistently stayed in touch, checked in, and made sure I had the support I needed. That level of care is rare in today's marketplace and speaks volumes about the company's culture and commitment to its customers. If you're looking for a platform that combines powerful technology, business-building tools, and a team that genuinely cares about your success, I highly recommend Umbrella. In my experience, it is one of the best platforms available in the digital marketing space today. Thank you, Rafael and the entire Umbrella team, for creating a platform that truly helps entrepreneurs succeed.

I can not say enough about the Umbrella Local team of professionals. This is my second project with Umbrella Local and every step of the way, they were attentive and patient with my organizations and own personal business. I would not use any other hosting site or webmaster.
Elisa Waldron, Wells Mobile Notary. Review of Umbrella Local on umbrellalocal.com
The digital marketing provided to me by Umbrella Local was top-notch. The article written about my company gave us a major boost. It was published on hundreds of websites and other media.
