Adstuck Consulting

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m a marketing manager for an education management association.

What challenge were you trying to address with Adstuck Consulting?

We needed their team to support our PPC and social media marketing efforts.

What was the scope of their involvement?

As part of my work, we collaborate with retainer-based agencies such as Adstuck Consulting and rely on them to support our pipelines in digital marketing.  In particular, Adstuck Consulting handled our paid media and social media campaigns on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.

Our marketing projects were based on the briefs and marketing plans generated by our team. Adstuck Consulting would then work on those ideas and create iterations, which they forward to me for our team's approval. They'd work on any edits or additional implementations per our request and move forward with the delivery phase. Once we were done with the implementation and optimization stages, their team would then help generate summaries for these reports.

What is the team composition?

I worked with an account manager and a media planner.

How did you come to work with Adstuck Consulting?

They were strongly recommended to us by another agency and my former colleague.

How did Adstuck Consulting perform from a project management standpoint?

We communicated via online messaging and Zoom and relied on Tableau and Google Analytics for project management and transparency reports. Adstuck Consulting was a reliable partner that paid attention to our needs and addressed any issues that occurred.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Adstuck Consulting were true experts in digital marketing, and that was apparent in the solutions they created for us. They understood our target market and impressed us with quality forecasts and marketing reports that helped us flesh out valuable information. Additionally, they amazed us with their AR/VR prowess, an impressive addition to their overall creativity.
