The Struggle

Common reviews of Thrive Agency

Here’s what Thrive Agency customers have to say.

Overpromising and underdelivering

Thrive customers consistently report being oversold services during sales calls with promises that never materialize. Multiple reviews warn that once you sign with them the service is disgusting and that the company don't deliver what they promise during the sales process.

Inexperienced staff

Despite being promised experienced professionals, Thrive assigns "juniors who don't know what they are doing" to handle client accounts. Customers report having to repeatedly switch team members when the first person "did not do a very good job" and failed to execute campaigns correctly.

Poor communciation

Thrive customers complain about account managers who show little to no enthusiasm during calls and communication that is painfully slow. Many report significant delays and communication breakdowns that impact their marketing campaigns.

No transparency

Multiple customers report paying thousands of dollars ($10,000+ in some cases) over several months only to discover that Thrive "hadn't even accessed our webpage" and had "done exactly zero work" on their projects.

Aggressive billing

Customers warn about Thrive being obsessed with getting access to your account and continuing to bill for work they didn't perform. Many report difficulty canceling services and being locked into long-term contracts.

GMB account violations

Recent customers report that "shortly after granting them access to our Google My Business page, it was suspended" due to violations involving third-party accounts linked to Thrive.
