Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the marketing and communication manager for Mubashir, a technology provider that creates solutions for retail fuel stations.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire 42DM?

We needed a pitch deck and website landing page to showcase at a major industry event. Our team hired 42DM to do the research and build the presentation.

What were your goals for this project?

The pitch deck needed to attract business partners and potential investors.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

Our sister company had hired them for a different project and recommended them to us for the job.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

After we agreed on the project scope and details, we had intensive communication calls, emails to transfer our business knowledge to their team. They onboarded a subject matter expert to fast track the project. 42DM drafted content and developed the landing page, which reflected the final pitch deck.

What was the team composition?

We worked directly with the project manager. There was a larger team working behind the scenes.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

The project was a great success because the showcase attracted investors. What’s more, web traffic increased by 40%. Those positives resulted led to new projects with 42DM.

The team was very professional. We had weekly calls to assure clear communication and smooth project management. They thought out-of-the-box.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The team was supportive and service oriented; a dedicated resource for the latter benefited the partnership. Even though the engagement was short, 42DM genuinely cared about our success.

Are there any areas for improvement?

The deliverables could have been set more clearly. Next time, we’ll work to make expectations more transparent.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I am a co-founder and the director of Incomlend. We provide invoice finance services on a marketplace basis on a global level.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with 42DM?

Once we began our company, we engaged 42DM to build our website and devise a digital marketing strategy to attract new client leads.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We entirely relied on 42DM to design and develop our website and implement our logo, images, branding, and color preferences. They have arranged the website so that it is SEO-friendly, and they launched Google keyword campaigns. They incorporated a blog and have written articles for us to post on our site and third-party pages. 42DM also launched our company’s Facebook and LinkedIn accounts and coordinated posts and content on those platforms.

What is the team composition?

Kate (CEO/Co-Founder, 42DM) led our team, which also included a project manager, a PR specialist, a designer, and copywriters.

How did you come to work with 42DM?

Once we started our company, we worked with a marketing agency in Ukraine that I knew from previous jobs to produce two videos. I was satisfied with their work and floated the idea of working together on a website. However, that firm said they didn’t have that specific skill set, but they introduced us to 42DM and assured us that we’d be treated well.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent between $40,000–$50,000 with 42DM.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together in earnest from 2017–2018. We are not currently working with them, but we are still in contact with their team and look forward to working with them again if necessary.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

42DM created a first-class website for us. Their SEO and digital communications efforts have raised our profile in Google rankings, and we’ve received many qualified leads as a result. 42DM has played a significant role in our success. We couldn’t have done this without them.

How did 42DM perform from a project management standpoint?

Our project manager was always available and responsive when we required them. We received regular updates and held productive meetings through conference calls and Skype.

What did you find most impressive about them?

I appreciated their capacity to thoroughly understand the business and propose solutions that fit our business needs.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I imagine that it’s not easy for digital marketing agencies to dive into a very complex project, but it’s important for us to have a partner with knowledge of financial products. In that regard, 42DM could improve.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Digital marketing agencies can be a great asset, but they need clear direction on what their clients need. Future clients of theirs must be prepared when entering into the engagement.
