We are green newbies about to buy a cottage that is already with Sykes and at the moment we can't see any reason why we shouldn't continue with them.
We'd be grateful to hear any views good and bad, and also some ideas on what the fees are likely to be. We've made contact with them but they aren't being drawn on fees, they say that this will be discussed later with a meeting at the property, so any forewarning on how they negotiate will be welcome.
Can you give me the pros and cons of going with Sykes please
Great, thank you for that - I'll take a look now.
I'm guessing that I'm going to find negative scenarios on Trust Pilot and Lay My Hat because the people that are happy with Sykes don't really have anything to say whereas people with issues will be grumbling loudly.
Are there are any happy Sykes clients here?

While it's true that people who are happy are less likely to voice an opinion than those who are unhappy, I'd say the advice here on Lay My Hat is pretty balanced... we like a good discussion and aren't afraid to (constructively) disagree with each other when we have a difference of opinion. We all have moans about the platforms we advertise with, but equally, you'll find plenty of positives amongst the negatives for most of the advertising platforms and agencies. We all have our preferences and after all, what works for one area/business type, may not work at all for another.Chinadogs wrote:

If, though, you find only negative comments about a particular agency or advertising platform on LMH, I would be suspicious and I would be seriously thinking whether they're the right people to advertise with.
