The founder
Heavy-duty mechanic. Plumber. Electrician. Founder Corey Hayes, from Calgary, Alberta, Canada, worked industry trades in his early years while building Get X Media into what it is today, 20+ years on, and it shows in how the agency thinks.
The approach is engineering, not guesswork: every decision runs on transparent data, because the data does not lie. No cut corners, no black boxes. We work in absolute transparency, so clients can watch the work happening in real time.

“Corey skyrocketed my business”
Corey skyrocketed my business, I’m now ranked 3rd on Google, and finally seeing the return I was promised after only 3 months! Very very happy that I found a company that delivered what was promised.

“This one is truly deserved”
I usually don’t write reviews, but this one is truly deserved. Having owned numerous businesses over the last 20+ years, finding someone to build a website has always been that task I disliked the most because communication was always difficult and I never seemed to be happy with the results.

“3rd page to top 2 in 3 months”
Corey boosted my company from the 3rd page of Google to the top 2 in 3 months. I am completely blown away with the service.

“A brand new website in record time”
I am so grateful to the team at Get X Media for their incredible work during an emergency situation. Our previous website had experienced a catastrophic failure, and we were in dire need of a new website as soon as possible. Get X Media not only responded to our request for help immediately, but they also worked tirelessly to build us a brand new website in record time.

“Straight to the top of Google”
Graham and Corey are just like the reviews say, ninjas. Thank you for getting my fitness business onto the top of Google.

“Stop looking, it is them”
Working with Corey and the Get X Media team is like handing your marketing to a group of mad scientists with great hair and better ideas. They didn’t just take my fitness company and revamp and run with it, they sprinted, dodged potholes and crossed the finish line. Corey’s sharp eye for structure, tone and “don’t bore me” content took my ideas from a rough voice note to “damn, I’d buy from me.” They’re fast and creative. If you’re looking for the right marketing company, stop looking, it’s them.

We’ve spent a lot of time and money trying to find a reliable team to help with our SEO. Although we were hesitant at the beginning, Get X Media has done a great job fixing all the errors on our website and putting together a content marketing plan for the year. Great job so far!
