Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

They thoroughly dissected our current affiliate workflows, finding redundant information, untapped partner segments, and mapping out areas where brand alignment could be translated into quantifiable results. They completely redesigned our outreach and onboarding strategy, created customized materials for partners in verticals like healthcare, lifestyle, and tech media, and introduced a framework for partner communication that provided clarity, brand alignment, and a quantifiable route to performance markers.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The results were unmistakable: we observed a significant increase in the average customer value via this channel, a rise in high-intent traffic, and more consistent partner engagement. What at first seemed like a disjointed series of promotions soon evolved into a well-coordinated growth engine, with performance tracking directly linked to lifecycle value instead of merely first-click attribution.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

They have equally trustworthy project management. On-time delivery of the deliverables, clear communication of expectations, and seamless handling of technical and strategic pivots were all achieved. To guarantee compliance, brand safety, and partner satisfaction, the Furnée team worked in unison with our internal marketers, data analysts, and legal teams.

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

Furnée Brands has delivered beyond our expectations.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Before beginning implementation, they validated direction through revenue modeling, competitor affiliate benchmarking, and a full-market analysis. A completely tailored affiliate onboarding pipeline, partner education materials that were optimized, campaign materials, and a smooth integration with our current technology stack were among the main deliverables. Additionally, they created a powerful suite of tracking and reporting tools that helped us make sense of things both strategically and tactically.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The numbers are self-evident. After it was introduced, the program quickly established itself as one of our most reliable sources of income. Affiliate relationships were the cause of a notable increase in new client acquisitions during the first year, with consistent growth trends observed month after month. Crucially, Furnée Brands' focus on selecting quality partners and using a tiered commission logic that balanced profitability and scale contributed to the revenue's high margins.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

They had a proactive and grounded communication style. They provided visibility into every stage, maintained regular touchpoints, and responded to strategic pivots with adaptability and conscientious adjustments, so we never had to follow up or request timelines.

What was your primary form of communication with Furnee Brands?

• Virtual Meeting

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

Furnée Brands stood out due to their ability to function with two distinct visions: meticulous execution on one side and precise brand alignment on the other. Their affiliate assets frequently seemed like extensions of our own creative team because they had such a deep understanding of our brand's positioning and tone. Their strategy was planned, customized, and strategic rather than plug-and-play.

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

Regarding areas for improvement, we discussed during post-launch reviews that we would have benefited from greater automation earlier in the affiliate partner approval process, and they have already started incorporating it into their workflow for upcoming clients. However, their desire to continuously optimize and their receptiveness to feedback far outweighed any minor hiccups.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

A carefully planned affiliate marketing campaign that was customised to Sana's distinct value proposition was carried out by Furnee Brands. Their range of work encompassed:

• Finding Strategic Partners: Instead of searching widely, they prioritised niche platforms and influencers in the SMB and healthcare advocacy domains, building a network of high-intent affiliates. Relevance and increased conversion potential were thus guaranteed.
• Content Collaboration: Furnee collaborated closely with affiliates to co-create authentic storytelling—case studies, webinar integrations, and thought leadership pieces that showcased Sana's influence on actual businesses—instead of using generic promotional materials.
• Performance tracking: We were able to make real-time messaging adjustments thanks to their implementation of a strong tracking system that tracked engagement metrics beyond clicks, such as lead quality and downstream conversions.

A comprehensive affiliate onboarding playbook, monthly performance dashboards with actionable insights, and A/B-tested creative assets that spoke to our audience's pain points (such as administrative burden and cost transparency) were among the main deliverables.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

With many affiliates referring companies that fit our ideal client profile—SMBs actively looking for healthcare solutions—Furnee's strategy resulted in a notable increase in high-quality leads. One noteworthy instance was a focused collaboration with a reputable HR consulting firm for small and medium-sized businesses; their webinar integration alone produced dozens of warm leads, some of whom became Sana's long-term clients. 
Furthermore, the engagement rates of the affiliate content continuously surpassed those of our owned media, demonstrating the importance of third-party validation.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Furnee's team demonstrated a unique combination of discipline and agility. They consistently delivered quarterly strategy reviews and weekly performance updates, all while adhering to a rigorous timeline.

What was your primary form of communication with Furnee Brands?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

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

Their consultative attitude. They served as an extension of our team rather than merely carrying out tasks. During one strategy session, they discovered an unexplored potential: micro-influencers in local business associations. Some of our highest-converting partnerships resulted from this grassroots strategy, which we hadn't previously thought of. Their ability to strike a balance between innovative experimentation and data-driven decisions is invaluable.

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

Even though the campaign was generally successful, lead handoffs could have been made more efficient with an earlier integration with our CRM system. Furnee admitted that there were sporadic lags in connecting affiliate-generated leads with our sales team and fixed them by designating a dedicated liaison. Efficiency would be further increased in the future by even closer operational alignment between the sales and marketing workflows.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Their scope of work included carefully choosing niche affiliates with a solid reputation in the public sector after conducting a comprehensive competitive analysis to find weaknesses in our current approach. They created case studies, demo videos, and targeted landing pages that addressed the issues that the government's finance and human resources departments were having with affiliate promotions. A simplified tracking system that gave us real-time insights into affiliate performance and enabled us to dynamically optimise campaigns was one of their main deliverables. They also led training sessions for our affiliates to make sure they fully understood Govify's value proposition, which greatly raised the calibre of leads produced.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The volume of leads increased significantly, but more significantly, the leads were very qualified, and many of them signed up for pilot programs and demos. Their data-driven strategy enabled us to continuously improve our messaging, which raised the engagement rates of important local government decision-makers.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Furnee Brands responded very quickly. They regularly met deadlines and delivered clear weekly reports with practical suggestions. They promptly realigned resources without halting progress when we asked for changes, like refocusing attention on a particular product feature before a significant industry conference. One of their greatest strengths was their ability to change course without sacrificing campaign effectiveness.

What was your primary form of communication with Furnee Brands?

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

The scope of work covered a full buildout of an affiliate recruitment program, onboarding of partners, and the development of customized content tailored to industry-specific terminology. Furnee didn’t just recruit affiliate marketers; they trained them to understand our services, compliance nuances, and even how to speak our clients' language.

Key deliverables included:

• A bespoke affiliate partner portal designed with brand alignment in mind.
• Educational modules for affiliates that included interactive product demos, regulatory primers, and detailed case studies.
• Coordinated campaigns with B2B affiliate influencers and niche blogs in the medtech space.
• Weekly reporting dashboards and insights sessions where adjustments were made based on engagement patterns and inbound lead quality.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

While affiliate marketing is typically associated with consumer products, Furnee Brands demonstrated it could be a powerful tool even in B2B manufacturing when executed with precision and strategic creativity. Over the course of our engagement, we began to see a noticeable increase in inbound inquiries from medical device companies we previously had no traction with.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Furnee Brands operated with a level of transparency and accountability that is rare in the agency world. Weekly syncs were never just updates—they used these sessions to proactively identify where a campaign could be optimized, or where affiliate engagement could be improved. If we requested any pivots, such as adjusting the language used in affiliate-facing content or re-prioritizing certain industry sub-segments, they responded with agility and clarity.

What was your primary form of communication with Furnee Brands?

• Virtual Meeting

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

What we found most impressive about Furnee Brands was their ability to combine strategic insight with a deep operational follow-through. They weren’t just thinkers—they were doers. Their understanding of compliance-sensitive industries, their willingness to immerse themselves in our world, and their ability to creatively bridge the gap between affiliate marketing and B2B medical manufacturing were truly unique.

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

I’d say the only element we would have appreciated even more of was post-campaign affiliate engagement. Some partners needed extra incentives or touchpoints to remain consistently active after the initial ramp-up. While the Furnee team addressed this as it emerged, building a more robust lifecycle engagement strategy for affiliates could further strengthen future outcomes.

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

Furnee Brands came with not only a deep understanding of our category and space, but also a broader perspective of growth marketing and the role that affiliates play. What we found most impressive was Furnee Brands' flexibility and adaptability.  

Our business went through a number of shifts - in strategy, product focus, product availability, etc. - and Furnee Brands was an incredible partner to us throughout that time and throughout the many changes.  They were able to quickly adapt strategy as we shifted ours, identifying new opportunities, clearly outlining implications and challenges, and finding new ways to continue to drive growth for us.   

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

While day-to-day management was great, for a longer-term engagement like ours, there's an opportunity for Furnee Brands to also step back and conduct more strategic, periodic reviews on overall performance and strategy in order to take a broader approach to adjustments or shifts.
