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

We were brought in by a larger client to oversee marketing strategy and execution work, and worked closely with the RevGTM to support much of the go-to-marketing side of the project. This included activities like:

• Conference and event meeting propspecting
• AEO/SEO strategy
• LinkedIn outreach strategy
• Email marketing strategy and execution

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

This program was about launching initial campaign / activiations for our end client, so it was time-based success metrics, including:

--Full website launch, with AEO/SEO recommendations delivered prior to launch

--Securing material number of meetings prior to an in-market event

--Implementing outbound email + social media best practices in time for annual events

--Coordinating the PR / analyst playbook prior to a key brand re-launch

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

The team was extremely responsive. We build a project timeline together, and they consistently communicated key needs and deliverables. They were proactive through the process, bringing up potential future end-client needs and opportunities for more efficient operations. Moreover, they were very flexible with how our end-client needed to work, which was across both in-person and remote meetings. 

What was your primary form of communication with Kevin Nakao?

• In-Person Meeting
• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

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

The RevGTM team has remarkably nimble, clever ways of executing go-to-market activities that reach relevant audiences without costing too much money. They know how to execute effectively without asking for budgets that we could never get approved, all while keeping their eye on measurable results. 

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

Overall we were extremely satisfied with RevGTM as a partner. In addition to the core go-to-market activities that were asked of them, they were happy to review deliverables from our side of the project (e.g., more of the marketing strategy work) and provide feedback. It may also be one of their core competencies, but it just wasn't in scope for them in this project.

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

Kevin helped me get my first-ever LinkedIn outreach campaign off the ground, and I honestly can’t say enough good things about the experience. We wanted to connect with executive assistants, relocation teams, and business travelers — people who could really benefit from our furnished rentals and high-touch service — but I had no idea where to start.

Before we even launched the campaign, Kevin reviewed my LinkedIn profile and gave super helpful feedback to make sure it reflected the right messaging and credibility. I ended up rebuilding it based on his suggestions, and it made a huge difference in how confident I felt reaching out.

From there, he walked me through everything — how to speak to the audience, what listings and services to highlight, and how to position our brand in a way that actually connects. He didn’t just give me a strategy — he gave me a roadmap and the support to follow through.

We’re already starting to get some early recognition from the people we’re trying to reach, and I feel like this is just the beginning. It’s still ongoing, but I’m way more comfortable now doing something I had zero experience with before. I really appreciate how thoughtful, clear, and patient Kevin was through it all — he truly cares and wants you to win.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We’ve already seen some solid momentum in just the first couple of weeks. Kevin helped us clean up our LinkedIn presence and put together a clear playbook to start building real connections with the right audience — executive assistants, business travelers, and relocation teams.

We’ve published around 15 posts so far, which is way more than we’ve ever done before, and we’re starting to attract interest and engagement from people in our target market. We’re also building a strong base of connections we can continue growing over time.

It’s still early, but this foundation is already making a difference and giving us something solid to build on in the coming months.

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

Kevin’s been incredibly helpful and consistent every day we’ve worked together. He’s always pushing things forward — sharing new ideas without hesitation, giving thoughtful feedback, and reviewing what I’m working on in real-time. It’s felt more like having a partner than a consultant.

His responsiveness and encouragement have really helped me build confidence, not just in the campaign, but in this whole area of the business that didn’t even exist for us before. I never felt like I was waiting on him — he’s proactive, quick to follow up, and genuinely invested in helping us succeed.

What was your primary form of communication with REVgtm?

• In-Person Meeting
• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

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

What stood out the most is how deeply Kevin cares— not just about delivering a service, but about helping you win. He doesn’t sugarcoat things or let you cut corners, which I really appreciate as a small business owner. It’s like having a mentor in your corner who’s not afraid to get real with you, while still being fully supportive.

He treated my project like it mattered — like it was his own — and that gave me a ton of confidence. His mix of strategic thinking, hands-on help, and honesty is rare. He made something that felt intimidating (launching a campaign and building my presence) feel manageable and logical at the same time.

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

Nothing comes to mind! Thank you!

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

Kevin was able to generate leads for us quickly, after we had been stuck for so long. He was incredibly attentive and responsive and quick to get systems in place. I called him on Thursday and by Friday he had ads up and running. When they weren't performing initially, he kept an extremely close eye on them and continually messaged me with updates and suggestions. 

What was your primary form of communication with REVgtm?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

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

Kevin was very honest and helpful. When his initial suggestion didn't work, he was very upfront about it and immediately provided a recommended solution. That is a level of honesty that you don't often see from service providers that is so refreshing. From there, he was quickly able to deliver on the leads he promised and communicated with me the whole way through.

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

No! Very satisfied.
