An independent, evidence-based evaluation of LYFE Marketing, award-winning social media management and digital marketing agency for small businesses.. Scored across 5 weighted criteria covering website presence, search visibility, trust, market presence, and customer satisfaction.
Overall evaluation score
The agency focuses on helping small businesses save time and generate higher ROI by combining targeted online marketing, campaign management, and conversion-focused tactics across social, search, email, and video.
Weight: 20%
LYFE Marketing has a substantial website presence based on the evidence: its site clearly describes multiple services, publishes contact details (address, phone, email), includes about/contact/privacy pages, and even provides real pricing across service pages, though the evidence does not include deeper proof of site performance or content breadth beyond those pages.
Weight: 20%
Search visibility evidence is thin, so this is scored conservatively: the domain is established (~13 years old, registered September 2012) and the homepage was updated as recently as September 2025, but no traffic, ranking, backlink, or third-party visibility metrics were provided in the evidence bundle.
Weight: 20%
Trust and credibility are mixed: verifiable firmographic details are strong (Atlanta location, founded 2011, 51-200 employees, full contact information, LinkedIn presence), and Clutch shows 157 reviews at 5.0/5, but Trustpilot is only 3.8/5 across 114 reviews and BBB shows an F rating, non-accreditation, 1/5 reviews, and 6 complaints.
Weight: 15%
LYFE Marketing shows a solid overall footprint from the evidence, with a long-standing domain, LinkedIn presence, multiple cited service pages, published pricing, and listings/reviews across Clutch, Trustpilot, BBB, and evidence of a Google Business Profile; however, absence from G2 and Capterra and limited independent visibility data keep this from scoring higher.
Weight: 10%
Customer satisfaction appears mixed overall: Clutch is very strong at 5.0/5 from 157 reviews with praise for responsiveness, professionalism, and results, but Trustpilot’s 3.8/5 from 114 reviews and BBB’s 1/5 reviews with complaints about performance, billing, and deliverables indicate meaningful dissatisfaction alongside positive experiences.

LYFE Marketing does publish real pricing on its own site, but it is fragmented across service pages rather than presented as one master rate card. The clearest company-published figures are: social media management/social media advertising starting at $600/month, average social media management cost of $650-$1,000/month, digital advertising management starting at $750/month plus ad spend, startup social media plans at $750/$1,350/$1,550 per month, consulting at $325-$1,000/month after a $75 initial review fee, and workshops from $1,500/day. Third-party directory data from Clutch should be treated as directory/review-platform information rather than official agency pricing; Clutch lists a $1,000+ minimum project size, $50-$99/hr average hourly rate, and summarizes client spend around $500-$1,900/month.
Where this pricing information was traced from.
LYFE Marketing has a clear third-party review presence on Clutch, Trustpilot, BBB, and Google-related evidence, but I could not verify a company profile on G2 or Capterra from search results. The verified platforms show a mixed reputation: Clutch appears strongly positive, while Trustpilot and BBB include substantial negative feedback alongside some positive reviews; Google presence appears to exist, but I could not directly verify the live profile URL or read review text from the search-accessible results.
157 reviews
Clutch reviews skew positive and frequently highlight responsiveness, professionalism, timely delivery, and strong ad/campaign execution. Review insights on the profile also call out communicative service and high-quality work, though at least one visible review reports underperformance and low-quality deliverables.
“The quality of the ads is amazing and professional.”
“They have a lot to offer, and it's more than just creating an ad campaign.”
“The customer service is top-tier, but what really stands out are the results.”
“They welcomed collaboration, adapted quickly, and consistently delivered on tight timelines.”
114 reviews
Trustpilot shows a mixed picture. Positive reviewers praise responsiveness, transparency, and measurable marketing gains, while negative reviewers complain about poor ad performance, billing issues, and not receiving the services they expected.
“We are working with Travis for Facebook Ads and in only 2 months of working with Lyfe we are seeing great improvements after working with a different agency for over a year. Very responsive and thoughtful when it comes to listening to our needs.”
“I didn’t get what I paid for. They didn’t reduce my fee.”
“The ads they placed hit chaffs. I sold in trickles and could not even cover a quarter of their first month's fee.”
“LYFE Marketing charged my credit card $1,147.50 without authorization after I had already paid $1,439.51 in March for a separate campaign.”
I found strong evidence that LYFE Marketing had a Google Business Profile, because the company itself posted in Google's Business Profile Community that its review page had been suspended and said it had built up 100+ 5-star Google reviews. However, I could not directly verify the current live Google profile URL, rating, or readable individual reviews from the accessible search results.
BBB is strongly negative for this company. The profile shows an F rating, non-accreditation, and visible customer reviews focus on poor deliverables, minimal actual work, extra charges, and aggressive handling of negative feedback.
“I hired LYFE Marketing for social media advertising services. During the contract, I raised concerns about the quality of video content they delivered.”
“I received threatening legal letters demanding I remove my review, followed by inflated charges and threats of being sent to collections.”
“They only completed about 3 weeks of actual work across the entire 3-month period.”
“Worst service I've ever received from another business.”
