Hearing about SweetAs

When I set up the company, I was looking for marketing platforms. When I saw the SweetAs showing up frequently during my search, I found more about it and then decided to sign up. We’ve been using SweetAs after 2 months of establishing Gear U Up.

Goals and challenges when joining SweetAs

Our main goal was to create an effective online presence and get new customers. We were just starting out as a business and we didn’t even have a website. Moreover, our business nature was such that we had different jobs every day and we go rare contracts. We also had little start-up capital and we were attracted by SweetAs as a cost effective marketing platform.

Highlights with SweetAs

First job with SweetAs

Our first job was for W A Roads, which was a very big company. We got the contract within just 7 days of joining SweetAs. We still work with this company, providing them temporary road signs and other products.

Significant contracts/customers

We had this client MAN Diesel, a market leader in large diesel engines. We had previously tried to get a contract with this company on our own but were unsuccessful. With SweetAs we won the contract by sending in a quote after receiving a request from them.
