BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am a Local Store Marketeer at Pets Place. A pet store chain with 175 physical pet stores and an international webshop (Netherlands and Belgium). As a Local Store Marketer I am involved on a daily basis with the marketing and communication around local events such as store openings, but also other fun events that are organized at a local level.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Up Analytics?

Up Analytics has helped us optimize the online findability and visibility of our 175 stores. Google My Business has been completely optimized and completely updated. To keep this up to date we use the smart tool from Up Analytics. We can now immediately implement a change that is not only visible on one platform but immediately on all platforms linked to the tool.

What were your goals for this project?

The goals for this project were to improve the findability and visibility of our stores at a local level. Part of this was the optimization and use of Google My Business. We still do tests and perform optimisations to ensure that our stores can be found on Google and other platforms.

SOLUTION

How did you select Up Analytics?

Up Analytics was recommended by an agency we have been working with for years. The story and the unique fact that we could not only optimize our Local SEO on Google, but also could take 30+ other platforms with us, made us decide to work with Up Analytics. With this number of national stores it is important and efficient if we can adjust everything at once, without having to spend a whole week on it.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

Prior to the start of the project it was explained which steps we need to take to get everything up-to-date. With proper consultation, we ensured that the most important information was immediately online and we supplemented this over time.

Up Analytics has indicated time and again where the optimization steps were and which steps we had to take to implement this. After the major update, we also got to know the tool more and more, so that we can now work with the tool ourselves on a daily basis.

What was the team composition?

I have worked closely with Michel, the one behind Up Analytics. We were in regular contact and still have contact when needed.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Local online visibility has increased over the past year and we have become more visible on Google and the other platforms. In addition, we now have insight into what is happening with these listings and we can provide our customers with important information, which is very nice because of the pandemic.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

In the first weeks of the project, Michel gave us a weekly update on how and what was done. Both via e-mail and an online meeting, so that we could take a look at GMB and the Up Analytics tool.

When we started using the tool ourselves, we made sure that we had a weekly online meeting so that we could work on our Local SEO as efficiently as possible. This was very nice. As the independence grew, we also needed fewer contact moments.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I thought it was very pleasant that Michel got to work immediately, so that we had everything up-to-date within a short time, so that we could continue. He was keen to do this quickly and efficiently, so that we could use the Up Analytics tool as quickly as possible.

They responded to our questions and made a dashboard, so we could use their tool while analyzing results properly.

Are there any areas for improvement?

There were some difficulties linking Facebook with our local store pages, which has taken an awfully long time. I had the feeling that this was still relatively unknown to Michel, which left me with questions that could not always be answered with certainty. In the end it worked out, but that would be something that could certainly be done faster and with more certainty.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

We make performance eyewear and appeals within the endurance sports world. I’m the VP of e-commerce but have recently become more involved in marketing and analytics. I also run our paid digital advertising.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Up Analytics?

We initially contacted them for assistance with attribution, but our teams collaborated on much more as our relationship went on.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

At the start of the project, they took a look at our site performance and found that our page speed was very low for what we were spending. They determined that boosting our page speed would significantly improve the effectiveness of our advertising. We shifted some resources internally to address that. They set up a completely new Google Ads platform for our European and is implementing paid shopping, search, and Facebook advertising.

We’re starting in the UK market but will move to other countries like Germany and France if we’re successful. They’re building out target audiences and keywords for that market now. Additionally, they’ve been critical in tightening up our platforms and giving us valuable feedback.

Since starting up our partnership, we started focusing on scaling and handling demand generation within our European business. Michel (Founder) has been working on a plan to get some active marketing started in Europe.

What is the team composition?

I work with Michel who has a team of bright employees. We’ve worked with four other resources. 

How did you come to work with Up Analytics?

I found them while looking for ex-Google employees. Our CEO had a connection that recommended Michel. That helped him decide to work with them.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent about $40,000 on their work.

What is the status of this engagement?

We’ve been working with them since January 2020.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Our page speed has been cut in half on a number of our most important pages. While they weren’t the ones that actively did the work on that effort, they were responsible for pointing us in that direction with our resources. With our European marketing, we’re still pretty early on in the project, so we haven’t seen any definitive results quite yet. 

How did Up Analytics perform from a project management standpoint?

They’re as organized as anyone that we’ve worked with before. We have an agenda for all of our meetings that’s prepared beforehand with details to help us stay on-task. That’s one of the reasons they’ve been so successful.  

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their level of expertise across all Google platforms opened up new doors for our strategies. After taking a look at our US Google account, they were able to provide us with recommendations to optimize our account by simply adjusting a few settings. It took some technical backend work on our end, but it was definitely worth it. He’s seen it all, so he knows exactly what to look for. His confident answers to complex questions have really helped us out.  

Are there any areas they could improve?

I’d love it if they were in our time zone, but that hasn’t been a huge issue at all. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

If you’re willing to put the time in with them, they will make it worth it. It’s important to engage them for them to help you improve.
