BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the Marketing Manager of an growing Romanian energy company, focusing on online acquisition process for consumer & business customers. We are constantly looking for a fresh approach and new ways of driving online conversions. Together with Danco Vision we managed to enhance our potential and drive our best sales month in February 2022. It is a trustful partner, open to ideas , proactive, always on time, going the extra mile.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Danco Vision 360 Digital Marketing, and what were your goals?

Digital marketing focusing on PPC, social media campaigns, e-mail marketing. Providing also IT development services/new features for our online sales and customer journey.

SOLUTION

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

We had several collaborators but Danco Vision proved to be the long time partner who best understood our needs, has been the most responsive and also has covered a lot of areas where we need support. We have a long collaboration going on.

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

First we went through a discovery phase, consolidating the brand. We were already collaborating but in 2021 we have been forced to stop communication due to unstable market conditions (in Romania and Europe) which ended in regulating the market. End of 2021 we set our goals for 2022, we decided on the directions to explore and how to rebuild our communication strategy in order to increase our consumer base as main target.

We built a budget with a clear view on channels and ambition conversion targets, in a market still recovering after a tough year. They assured that our SEO, Facebook, Google are properly invested in order to reach our main target families 30+. They also implement and optimize our social media presence (facebook, instagram, linkedin).

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

We work with an account manager (as single point of contact), the work is being distributed seaming less inside the agency. Having a single point of contact is a great advantage for us as it saves time, all the interaction & details are set from the beginning without ping pongs. Occasionally, we also work directly with developers from Danco Vision for our online sales journey developments.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The digital marketing campaign was very successful, driving best conversion ever, constantly growing rates. Results 4 times higher in conversion than previous campaign beginning 2021.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We have monthly strategy meetings, quarterly budget meetings and occasionally (every 2 weeks or whenever needed) direction calls where we analyze what was good, went wrong, what can we to to improve, what is new, where do we need to push a certain moment in time.

Since the energy sector is going through an unstable price situation, we often had to switch or divert from the initial plan. We have been treated with a lot of flexibility even in tough times, we managed together to reinvent and restructure our message in a coherent way.

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

Danco Vision offers a large range of services. They even helped with special acquisition requests not usually offered. If they find a solution they solve the problem. It is unique because we built a very good communication, they know us best, we feel that we are an important customer for them. We don`t need many clarifying meetings, we give a direction once and they perform very well with that.

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

We hope to continue and grow together. We have a lot of plans regarding new collaboration streams.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the CMO for our group of companies that work with online entertainment across Europe and Asia.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Danco Vision 360 Digital Marketing, and what were your goals?

Our industry is extremely competitive overall and a key channel for potential success would be search engines. We got introduce to Danco Vision through a mutual connection, as they were highly recommended to help us with our overall SEO strategy.

This happened 5 years ago, and ever since, Danco Vision has been more than a key partner. Besides SEO, our partnership has extended to also include development and other things. Our ambition is to rank on top for desired keywords within our industry for organic growth.

SOLUTION

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

As mentioned above, a mutual contact made the introduction and recommendation in 2017.

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

When we started our partnership, we started from scratch. We hadnt optimized our site for SEO internally, nor did we have a strategy for SEO. Our goal was clear, we wanted to be "best in class" in our industry in SEO, meaning ranking as high as possible on search engines.

Danco Vision helped us creating a long term strategy, as well as implementing it. The work is ongoing and we keep improving, thanks to Danco Vision, and we are now "best in class" in our category.

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

We are working with several members of the team, across all departments.

Starting from 0, we are now the Nr 1 brand in our industry in our key markets, all because of Danco Vision

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

Their knowledge and overall strategy to not "cut corners", like many other SEO companies. Sustainability for the long term success has always been impressive.

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

No, we are pleased with everything.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

NVM New Vision is a company specialized in web development, having worked on various projects for different clients as well as for in-house projects. I am in the CEO position, overseeing all project developments and implementation.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Danco Vision 360 Digital Marketing, and what were your goals?

One of our in-house projects, EUlogis, an online freight exchange platform, was blowing through our PPC advertising budget with limited conversions. We hired Danco Vision to do online PR in some of the local EU markets we are focused on and also improve are search engine rankings. The goals was to be able to increase conversions through brand awareness and also make it easier for potential clients to find our business.

SOLUTION

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

Having working with them before in some other projects developed for other clients I knew their team and involvement into delivering based on our goals.

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

The work on our project started with identifying key options in improving our visibility. SEO came in front by researching and finding the correct keywords to target in specific markets. Once this was done we moved to optimizing pages for these specific keywords by writing relevant content and playing with the titles and descriptions. Next step was the long term work by publishing PR articles and gaining visibility and backlinks from specific niches and news outlets.

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

We have worked with two key individuals on this project, one SEO manager and one Client Account manager.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

For some key EU markets like Romania, Germany, Italy we have managed to gain first page rankings for some long tail keywords which, while more limited in traffic compared to general searches, proved to be focused on conversion of customers, something we have been looking to achieve. We are now looking to replicate these results on several more markets in Europe.

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

We have been holding more meetings at the start of the project when new content needed implemented and pages changed. When we moved to brand awareness and PR, the meeting dropped to 2 month, which included reporting of previous work delivered and rank tracking, as well as deciding new keywords to target and make changes for.

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

SEO reports were well prepared, with rank tracking and key improvements to follow. With their consistent strategy, we managed to improve our conversions despite some economic uncertainties.

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

At times deliveries were delayed compared to what was scheduled, but I guess we are all dependent on deliveries from partners which can sometimes be slower than expected. Luckily at these time they managed to rebalance the work in next reporting term.

They provided their cost based on the information we provided on colors and other site elements. They came up with a web design and implemented it on the site.

What is the team composition?

I interacted with a single person from their side who managed the client relationship. There was one other person who I gave information to pertaining to the design and development. I don’t know how many people were involved.

How did you come to work with Danco Vision?

I received a recommendation from a friend.

The cost of their work was €2,000–€3,000 ($2,500–$3,500 USD).

Danco Vision designed the website according to our guidelines. Our client was very happy with the website and so was our team.

They took more time than I would have liked to provide some answers. The project took place a couple of months ago, and we’ve had another project since then.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the marketing director of Kindred Group, an online gambling company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Danco Vision?

We contracted Danco Vision for a variety of services, from web development and web design to SEO for various markets in Europe.

What were your goals for this project?

The goals were different from project to project, but some of the most common requirements were obtaining a quality product, efficiency, and awareness.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

After shortlisting three other possible providers, we chose Danco Vision because of their fair pricing and the quality of their previous work.

Describe the project in detail.

In the past four years, they created 15 websites for us and provided a range of services, including graphic design, custom development work, copywriting, and online marketing strategy. The final phase of the project involved perfecting the SEO of all 15 websites, which would allow them to gain powerful rankings on Google. We also received valuable advice throughout the development process.

What was the team composition?

They selected team members based on the needs of our company. We worked with two teams from Danco on this project: the development team and the SEO team. Both teams had great synergy and worked together wonderfully.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What outcomes or results can you share that demonstrate progress and/or success?

Everything went according to plan. We’re fully satisfied with the web design and development stage, which was completed early and surpassed expectations. A few months after Danco delivered their work, our websites started to get high Google rankings. As a result, we’ve just renewed our online marketing and SEO subscriptions with them.

How effective was the project management?

The project management was great. I talked directly with the project managers, who then passed on my concerns to the developers and marketing teams. There were no problems with communication. We used Slack and GitHub, which allowed us to be involved in the entire process.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

It was great that I had access to the managers and the team members. Not only did the project managers have good technical backgrounds, they were also able to see things from our perspective.

What tips or recommendations do you have?

I have already recommended Danco Vision to my business colleagues and to anyone else looking for a vendor who would do a professional job. They’ve all thanked me for this.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I work at QQoin, a financial services company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Danco Vision?

We wanted to build an exchange platform for blockchain. We were working with a different vendor, but we were not entirely satisfied, so we started looking for a new development company. We also needed help with digital marketing.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

They used custom Java and PHP to develop the website. I wanted to build a completely custom website (I didn't want to use WordPress or any types of themes for security reasons). The unique web platform that they created enables the interface between blockchain itself and the website. They also developed a unique security system for this blockchain interface. As far as marketing goes, they wrote some blog posts and managed Google AdWords and Facebook pay per click campaigns for me.

What is the team composition?

We have a project manager, a development team, and a graphic design team that also does marketing for me.

How did you come to work with them?

I found them through an online search.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve paid them over $50,000. We spent at least $25,000–$30,000 on core development and we pay them about $2,000 a month to manage our Google AdWords and Facebook pay per click campaigns. 

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with them in May 2017 and the project is ongoing (the development part is completed and we're adding some finishing touches).

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We saw an increase in clicks through our digital campaigns and all the feedback we got has been extremely positive. They did some outstanding graphic designs and everyone who's used the platform loves how it functions.

How did they perform from a project management standpoint?

They did an excellent job and made themselves available when I needed them. We mostly used Skype and phone to communicate.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They're very creative and have a good flow of ideas. Also, they're easy to communicate with.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I have no complaints. There was one time when we didn't meet the deadline, but they explained why that happened and it didn't affect me negatively.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I'd definitely recommend using them. They made me feel involved in the project (unlike other development agencies I had worked with).
