To further bolster customer engagement and retention, Velocity offers its “Rate My Smile,” software as a service to enable businesses to gather vital information on their customers as well as simultaneously provide nondiscriminatory and non-biased ratings on employee services for evaluation purposes. As customers are provided with the ability to contribute feedback, Rate My Smile helps establish a good relationship between employees and customers.

Management can then utilize data provided by the customers to develop better services, employee rewards programs and incentivize work ethic.

Headquartered in Mandeville, Velocity was established in 2012, but its roots run much deeper. The genesis of Velocity began with the legendary New Orleans production company, Berning Marketing & Productions that worked for over four decades to elevate brands as diverse and influential as Northrop Grumman and Burger King. After inheriting the company, Robert Berning III decided it was time to expand the borders of his father’s business and explore beyond the boundaries of traditional marketing with Velocity Agency. Today, its in-house team of experts works tirelessly to ensure that Velocity remains on the cutting edge of technology and ahead of its competitors. The company was among the first advertising agencies to offer exclusive and high-tech services such as drone photography and videography, 360-degree virtual reality,and augmented reality. Having experienced tremendous success in recent years, Velocity is building a new 25,000 square foot complex to accommodate its expanding team and expected continued growth. For the near future, the company is focusing on enhancing the capabilities of Rate My Smile and implementing it for new industrial applications. “We consider ourselves as storytellers with unique expertise in different disciplines. We specialize in narrating the tale of our clients to the audience that needs to hear it,” concludes Robert.
