BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the Head of Digital Marketing for the Berlin-based start-up ODXClub. ODXClub is a new and safe dating app from and for Berlin. ODXClub is empowering women and putting them in control of their dating experience. No matter if you are looking for a short adventure or a partner for a relationship.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

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

Launching a new dating app with zero users on a limited budget is complicated. We needed an agency to define the best user acquisition strategy to acquire a healthy ratio of women in a small geographical area. We needed support in a wide area of expertise eg. for our mobile marketing tech stack, App Store Optimization, and creative strategy.

Our goal was to find a partner who understands our dating vertical and brings profound expertise in mobile user acquisition strategy, campaign management, and a broad technical understanding of the mobile marketing tech ecosystem. We wanted to reach a certain number (critical mass) of active users in a very short time (weeks), combined with a very ambitious female ratio above industry benchmarks for the lowest price possible.

SOLUTION

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

We shortlisted 5 agencies and got in touch with 3 agencies. After the first interviews, we knew very quickly that Replug is the best partner, not only because of their past expertise but because of their proactive approach to understanding and suggesting practical solutions.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and marking tools used.

After the initial briefing from our side, Replug quickly created a creative strategy together and formed based on our goals a campaign plan focussing on mobile user acquisition. Replug-checked our tech stack and assisted us with essential improvements for our measurement set-up. They gave us an excellent project and media plan for the first phase.

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

We worked very closely with a mobile marketing manager and the account manager from Replug. Their graphic design department supported us with all the creative material we needed. Replug's App Store Optimization team supported us with all the input we needed. Their business intelligence manager helped us out great times with our data science projects. The two founders have been involved in the daily business too.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Replug scaled our user base from zero to 20k in a very short time. While constantly increasing the female share of our user acquisition efforts while reducing the CPA for females Replug decreased the total CPA by over 62%. By pushing towards a UGC approach on TikTok they managed to reduce our CPA with UGC in 1 month by almost 50%. Replug gave us very good recommendations and optimized our creative strategy accordingly, resulting in an impressive 213% increase in our registration rate.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We had a weekly digital or in-person meeting with them to go over the weekly performance and we got very focused weekly reports as detailed monthly reports. Besides email, we used Slack for communication and used Trello as a project management and task-tracking tool. Replug was always very responsive (max a few hours) and assisted us even over the weekend while we faced some technical issues.

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

REPLUG was our 1-stop shop for all our mobile marketing needs. From marketing to creatives and tech stack including mCRM, Replug was in every area profound and helped us a lot. Working with other agencies before Replug changed my view on agencies drastically. You could feel how they live and breathe mobile marketing and they went many times over the top.

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

We could have found a quicker solution together for bridging the boundaries of using GDrive on one side and OneDrive on the other, but this was mostly related to us.
