BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am a Director for a high quality on-demand yoga and wellness platform for viewers worldwide.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Coalition Technologies, and what were your goals?

We hired Coalition Technologies to assist us with PPC Ad Management. Our expectation was that they would help to build out a better martech infrastructure so that accurate tracking and attribution could take place in google analytics, that we would receive an ROI within the first three months on PPC Ad campaigns that would be created, tested, and optimized by Coalition Technologies in order to see a significant increase in new customer acquisition by end of year.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

I was referred to this vendor through Clutch. I was impressed with the digital strategist over at Coalition Technologies who I spoke with on a discovery call. I was given the impression that the team would be large, technology capable, and resourceful.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and campaigns.

Step 1 was to build out tracking and attribution in GA4 so that we could properly analyze customer journeys and KPI's. Simultaneous to step 1, their team would develop creatives for new campaigns: concepts, graphics & copy. We never got beyond those two steps because the project was so poorly managed.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

I had two account managers, PPC ad manager, copywriter, leadership and a programming team. Despite the hefty resources, there was a serious lack of communication, an inability to meet deadlines, mismanagement between their own departments, and no guidance from leadership whatsoever.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

Coalition Technologies carelessly poured over $10,000 into a campaign that yielded no conversions. We wasted thousands of dollars on this campaign that ran almost two months. I never approved this amount of budget nor was I ever provided with guidance or recommendations on pivoting or optimizing on this campaign.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

Alignment calls took place between myself and the account managers every two weeks. They were never prepared with the results of that campaign that we needed to use our limited meeting time to discuss. Reporting was a joke, I would receive an email full of screenshots that wouldn't download, no analysis or insight into these results were ever provided despite abysmal numbers and lack of ROI.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

On paper they seem great because of their robust team and tech resources. I can't say I was impressed with anything about their company as I went through my experience.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Better communication. I would go for days just waiting to hear back on the status of a campaign that was time sensitive. It made me feel like our company was an absolute last priority for them and that we were just sitting on the backburner.
