Iconic Lights are a perfect customer for our skill set. Focused on growth, with our solid development team and our strategic marketing service. Together we achieved 6 figure year on year revenue growth. To facilitate this it was important to have the right plan in place, each month we met and went through our strategic KPI document.
140% Traffic Growth Year On Year
