“Love their video editing service”

Max W.
3/29/23

Their video editing team has really helped me scale up my social media and youtube. I also love that they have motion graphics and illustration. I like how well rounded their service is, while at the same time keeping amazing and turnaround times. Beats everyone else I tried before.

“Please support U.S. freelancers, and businesses that do as well! THANK YOU!”

Tonya S.

PLEASE SUPPORT businesses that support U.S. Workers! Thank you! I went through an online application process as a video editor, that had sort of an interview aspect to it. They gave an editing example then asked that I estimate how much time it would take me to do a similar edit and what I would charge for it. I estimated 2 hours (which was not even close to realistic, but I was curious to see what their response was), and $50 total cost, so $25 an hour (I said $80 / $40 in other reviews, then looked at my screenshots). After submitting that info the next screen said that the average time for their freelancers to do that type of edit was 12 hours and the average TOTAL PAY for those 12 hours was $30! That's $2.50 an hour! Their job posting said freelancers typically average between $20 - $40 an hour! What a JOKE! I also saw something referencing that they are a USA company. Well they might be based in the US, but they are obviously catering to freelancers from other countries where you can actually pay your rent on $2.50 an hour. I don't know anywhere in the U.S. where you can afford to live on $2.50 an hour. Needless to say I did not pursue a job with Flocksy any further than that. PLEASE SUPPORT businesses that support U.S. Workers! Thank you!

Tip for consumers:
Spend the first couple weeks, forming your team and getting to know them. It really helps in the long run.

We have used Flocksy for two years now and it gets better with time. We are an agency and before Flocksy tried a couple other services that were similar but had no luck with them. Each one started out fine, but after a while the turnarounds slowed up and the quality went downhill.

With Flocksy the opposite happened. It started out great but over time it got even better. Once you have your team formed, work gets pumped out with great consistency.

If you are looking for a place that you can depend on, I would definitely give Flocksy a shot.

Tip for consumers:
Make sure you give plenty of feedback when you are starting out. Their system and your Project Manager will use that to make sure you have a perfect team formed around your account.

Thanks for taking the time to complete onboarding and provide feedback. We appreciate it and consistently use feedback to improve the onboarding process for team members.

I checked and the branding guide file attached to that example was incorrect and should have been for a two-page branding guide, similar to the copywriting branding guide. This would take a team member a little over an hour and come out to about $20/hour. Sorry for any confusion that caused.

As covered with Tonya, these examples are intended to show the system averages provided by our actual team members, and that includes the 65% of our team members that are located right here in the US and work with us on a regular basis.

To potential clients and team members reading this, although we have a vigorous hiring process and only allow the best talent to work at Flocksy, everyone who works here is treated like family and we make sure to pay more than a fair wage as well as provide as much work as team members want.

I have been working for Flocksy since 2016. In addition to the steady work. I appreciate that payments are made promptly, and I receive real-person interaction with a dedicated Project Manager. A great platform to work on!

I use the writing, video and design team for my company. I love the fast turnaround times and quality of work. My team is amazing and has gotten to know my brand and style over the past couple years. If you are looking for an alternative to a traditional marketing team I would definitely give them a shot.

Before Flocksy I was using Upwork and Freelancer. Not only did Flocksy save me money but they also helped save me time by doing the vetting for me. I recommend them to everyone I know!

If you want to work with people halfway listening to you - to have your work outsourced to who knows where. Only to have them revise - revise - revise your work 2 weeks later - then this company is for you.

My manager - * was really frustrating as I truly believe she paid attention to detail about half the time when providing instructions.

Management is not listening. The quality of work speaks for itself.

Hi Curtis,
I’m sorry to hear you were dissatisfied with your Flocksy experience. I have reviewed your Flocksy account and see that you ran and completed 15 extensive projects during the month you were with us. Despite the fact that every new account on Flocksy comes with a hassle free money back guarantee for the first seven days of the subscription you waited until the end of the month to request a refund because of what you said were unnecessary delays (despite providing no details as to these “delays”) in completing some of your projects.

When we responded and asked for you to detail where you felt your projects were delayed (and offered to extend your subscription by however much time that was) you declined to provide any further information and instead canceled your account and proceeded to leave negative feedback such as the above.

I encourage anyone reading Curtis’s review to check out our portfolio, give us a call (we’re based out of Connecticut) to chat, and take advantage of our 7 day money back guarantee to check us out for yourself, we have 24 hour turnaround on most requests and our teams of designers, writers and web devs are thoroughly vetted and work directly with us.

Sincerely,
Sam
Flocksy

Great company to work with! I was using UpWork and Freelancer before I found Flocksy and will never go back.

I'm an Agency and use them mostly for web development and design. I had the Plus Plan so was able to run two projects at once. I had a whole website designed and coded within two weeks of signing up, as well as a bunch of infographics and banner ads created.

If you are looking for a really friendly team to work with that get stuff done, you found the right place. I highly recommend them.

It's been an awesome experience so far. My project manager has been helpful with helping me form a creative team around my business needs. I need a lot of design and blog projects done each month, so my team so far consists of a few designers and a writer. I'm very impressed with the quality and turnaround times, for what I'm paying.

I would highly recommend Flocksy.

I knew I loved them after I submitted my first project and within 16 hours received a few concepts. It was a complicated landing page and I thought for sure it would take longer than 24 hours. I approved the first concept and had them code it (which took 48 hours).

I've been with them for over four months and have very few complaints. I wish they did complicated 3D graphics and video editing, but that is it.

If you are looking for a team of programmers and designers this is the place to go.

Thanks so much for the review. The whole team enjoys working with you!

We will be adding video editing in the future. I'll let you know as soon as we do.

I have to admit that I was skeptical when I first signed up, like what is this type of service even. But Flocksy SHOCKED me with the amazing service, quick turnaround times and quality. Totally outstanding! Quick turnaround times and perfect communication. I knew exactly what was happening, exactly when it was happening. Give it a try for sure. That's what I thought and hey, I've been with them for 8 months now.

I was skeptical when I signed up, but after seeing the first design all my fears vanished. It was amazing! Plus they assigned me a Project Manager in New York who managed all my projects and gave me a call as soon as I signed up to ask me about my company. I would highly recommend Flocksy!
