Open HypeStat sourceBuyer decision brief
Where the public evidence points
Sixth City qualifies through an Ohio headquarters, current Cleveland and Columbus offices, a first-party history opening in Columbus in 2010, a current page naming 21 team members and extensive company-authored cases. The 20-50 capacity band follows that published roster. Current SEO pages explicitly say pricing is custom rather than publishing one price, so the legacy $2,000 floor has been removed. Cases often combine organic search with CRO, web or paid media; those boundaries are retained.
