Company Responses

The vendor responded on October 26, 2022.

The collaboration with the client lasted for 1.5 months - june and half of july 2021. Despite our comments that it was better to fine-tune the shop first and start advertising later, the client was impatient and demanded that the adverts be launched immediately once the cooperation started. 

During this period, our client's shop had general conversion problems - no traffic source was delivering satisfactory results. This was evidenced by the results of an audit by our specialists, as well as confirmation from the client regarding the UX/UI. 

During the collaboration, the server was overloaded, the MySQL infrastructure was causing product searches to throttle, and the site was taking 7-10 seconds to load.

The client itself stated that the problem with lack of results was due to the products or lack of trust and brand recognition. "Especially as I am aware that low conversion is a general problem and not just FB Ads.". 

The client decided to close the online shop, confirming the thesis that it was not our cooperation that was ineffective, but the client's entire business.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Florentyna is a leading trading company on the Polish market of household appliances. For 30 years of our existence we have gained the position of a reliable partner in business. My position at the company is International E-commerce Manager.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

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

Space Ads agency was hired to perform Google Ads, Facebook Ads campaigns for Florentyna's e-commerce shop, as well as SEO. The general goal was to increase sales and conversion rate of the web-shop.

SOLUTION

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

We were looking for a performance marketing agency that can help build our e-commerce position. The decision to work together was based on excellent recommendations from another business.

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

First, we went through the basics, which were the configuration of Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and re-marketing tags and pixels. The same goes with Facebook Ads. SPACE ADS handled everything flawlessly. They have very good knowledge about the technical aspects of the configurations with Google Tools. Later on, they started to set advertising account (google ads & facebook ads) according to their point of view, optimizing ongoing campaigns, etc., and consult with is in general.

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

I worked with Rafał, Monika, Konrad, Paulina and Justyna. Each of them had needed skill set for the task. Overall, a great team.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The PPC campaigns were generating satisfying returns. SEO has increased our web visibility significantly. All of that was seen in the increase in revenue and conversion rate.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The communication between both teams was phenomenal. Wouldn't change a thing there.

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

The care and attitude they had toward the client. They really cared about the success of our business, and they were super professional.

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

Increase the returns even higher, if possible.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the eCommerce and Logistics Director at BIG STAR, a luxury Polish brand that provides denim and non-denim apparel to over 200 stores across Europe with e-store bigstar.pl

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Space Ads?

As far as paid traffic, we wanted a multi-angle campaign that used Google Ads (Search, Display, Shopping, YouTube) as well as advertisements on Facebook Ads with Instagram for which we needed ongoing CRO. For organic traffic, we hired SPACE ADS for newsletters, SEO, automated push notifications, and content marketing.

What were your goals for this project?

One thing: business growth. We have a strong in-store presence, but to scale up we wanted to capture online traffic at a great ROAS.

SOLUTION

How did you select Space Ads?

SPACE ADS seemed flexible and really listened to me when I first started talking to them. I knew right away that they weren’t like previous agencies I had worked with. I felt like the process was about me and MY needs, not just trying to sell me a package.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

There were 2 main parts to this. First, I needed the tech stuff handled like installing and configuring Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics and remarketing tags and pixels. SPACE ADS handled that flawlessly. They have a great handle of technology and can explain things in very understandable terms.

Beyond that, there was the general consulting. I felt like they really had my best interest in heart and didn’t try to upsell me on things I didn’t need. In fact, with their strategies and advice I actually avoided paying much more than I would have!

What was the team composition?

From SPACE ADS I mainly worked with Rafał, Monika, Konrad, Paulina and Justyna. I noticed they had great teamwork and their skillsets really meshed well.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Our return on ad-spent was phenomenal. In the end, this was the only metric that mattered to me. And the results were there! Would definitely do it all over again.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Fantastic. They were very responsive and we mainly used email, but sometimes kept up-to-date via slack or phone calls as well.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They are really partnership-oriented. I feel like they are the marketing department of my business. They were on-time, friendly, open to advice, and most importantly, they were absolutely key in bringing me sales, customers and results.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Only one very minor one: Slow down with the new ideas! I suppose that’s a good problem to have though. Too much good stuff too fast. 

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the owner/director of a UK based supplement company shipping globally.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

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

PPC on supplements is extremely challenging. You've got the normal problems you face with PPC, but those are compounded by the myriad rules on both the adverts and landing pages for health related products. We don't have a huge in-house staff so we needed specialists to help with this.

SOLUTION

How did you select SPACE ADS and what were the deciding factors?

I follow various closed Facebook groups on SEO and Rafał got recommended in a thread there by a guy who himself had a good rep. I got in touch with him, the thing that really stood out was the interest he showed in us, the questions he asked.

He really understood what we were about before even suggesting a plan. There's no comparison between that and the boilerplate 'Powerpoint with the name at the top tweaked' style pitches you get from other agencies.

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

Space set up on-going Facebook and Google ad campaigns for multiple landing pages and target audiences in different geographies. Built-up data on what was working and what wasn't, dropped what wasn't, and developed positive ROI before ramping up.

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

We have worked with three of the team, they have all been excellent. Rafał himself, Aleksandra who has produced a lot of quality creative and specializes in Facebook, and Aleksander who works in Google PPC.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We are making real progress. We are honing down into the working campaigns, I've personally learned a lot about this process from the Space team.

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

We use a Slack channel for comms, and inevitably email too. Project management is professional and organised but yet informal enough so you get to know the personalities involved. I really enjoy working with Space.

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

We are not a massive account, and we are definitely not the easiest. Yet I still feel valued by the Space team. What makes Space Ads different is that they still give a fantastic level of service to their smaller clients.

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

It's always easy in retrospect, and supplements is extremely tough due to the additional rules involved. Looking back at the original Facebook campaign, we should have spent more time deliberating and tweaking everything before we even loaded it into Facebook's Business Manager.

BACKGROUND

We worked with two team members.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

They delivered an increase in organic and paid traffic, sales, and conversion rate, and a corresponding drop in bounce rate.
