BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the product manager at Genesis, one of the largest IT companies in Ukraine. We work in the health and fitness industry, creating websites and intending to build mobile apps for fitness and meal planning. I’m responsible for product development and performance.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Goodface agency?

Before we hired full-time developers in-house, we tried to create the product remotely. We were looking for an agency to create a website.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

They were in charge of design, concept development, and full improvements for our website. We’re not working on an app yet. The website is built on WordPress. Our original goal was to find and customize an algorithm that creates a personalized diet and meal plan for users. They advised us that a solution like this did not currently exist, so they ended up creating several sophisticated features from scratch. 

The technology they're developing relies on several formulas to yield personalized meal plans for individuals. We're also working on an SMS function that will help us deliver the meal plans to our customers. This is our main priority now as opposed to the website development.

What is the team composition?

There are fifteen people working on the project on our end, mainly marketers, project managers and support. We collaborate with three more team members from Goodface (remotely). Goodface agency is in charge of design and development.

How did you come to work with Goodface agency?

We met the owner of the agency at a conference about project management. A mutual friend connected us, and we started talking. When we were choosing between them and other agencies, other vendors asserted that this level of personalization in a project would be incredibly expensive or even impossible. However, Goodface agency offered us a fair price.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent between $15,000–$20,000 on the first project.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in April 2019, and the engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

At first, we were working on a rough design and development upon request. I’m responsible for metrics. So, when I analyze data and I see the bottlenecks or opportunities, I create technical tasks for them.

They have experience in the conversion improvement, which helps us come to mutual solutions. There were several occasions where we significantly improved conversion and became more profitable due to their suggestions.

How did Goodface agency perform from a project management standpoint?

Project management is quite good. I can’t blame them when we don’t meet the deadlines. The deadlines that we don't meet result from changes in our priorities. For instance, if there's an urgent task related to another part of the project that comes up, we might postpone a deadline.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They both execute on our directions and come to us with their own solutions. If I describe a problem, they will come in a few days with a few hypotheses, trying to bring forward an optimal solution. They work very deeply on our problems.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Within my expertise, I can't find many things for them to improve. The only issues we experienced resulted from us neglecting to take notes on the conditions decided upon in early meetings. We had to negotiate a couple of times in the past because of that. We don’t have this problem now because we know each other very well. Our team understands what to when to rely on them, and when we shouldn’t.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

They’re very responsible, strictly respecting everyone's time. It’s natural to respect such a partner. They often come with solutions that we didn’t describe properly, but they did it for us.
