Hanna’s YouTube campaigns got our Restaurant Week videos seen by thousands of local diners, and our participating restaurants felt it in their reservations. She was organized, responsive and easy to work with from start to finish.

Common questions
What does Forward Digital Media do?
Forward Digital Media is a digital marketing agency that manages paid search (Google Ads) and paid social (Meta: Facebook and Instagram) campaigns, plus SEO, AI search visibility, GA4 analytics, email campaigns, website optimization and consulting. Owner Hanna is Google Ads and Google Analytics certified.
Who do you work with?
Businesses that need measurable leads: automotive dealerships with sales, service and collision departments, restaurants and hospitality, municipal and community events, and local service businesses. Clients include a luxury and exotic dealership in South Florida, a special-finance used car dealership in the Chicago area and the Village of Hinsdale Restaurant Week. Hanna also brings nearly 15 years of dealer-group and OEM agency marketing experience.
How often are campaigns optimized?
Every campaign is reviewed and optimized daily. Most agencies check accounts weekly or monthly; daily attention catches wasted spend and new opportunities before they compound.
Do I keep ownership of my ad accounts and data?
Yes. Your Google Ads, GA4 and Meta accounts stay in your name. Forward Digital Media works through admin access, and you can choose agency-managed or client-managed billing.
