Feedback summary: 

Disruptive Advertising’s efforts have yielded an increased conversion rate and a lower CPL through PPC campaigns. The team is well-organized and communicative, creating an ideal partnership. They offer suggestions grounded in research of best practices, fostering a successful initiative.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I am the owner of a health insurance agency.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Disruptive Advertising?

My company’s website benefits from a healthy amount of traffic, but we were looking for assistance in improving our conversion ratio.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Once we agreed to terms, we discussed our Google Analytics and our Hotjar data to determine a baseline for our metrics. We rely on Disruptive Advertising to fine-tune elements of our website so that we capture more of that traffic—this includes creating landing pages and conducting A/B testing of colors, texts, and documents. They also have a staffer that manages our PPC campaigns. We’re very involved in their efforts, but we trust them to take the lead on a wide range of tasks.

What is the team composition?

We have a dedicated account representative.

How did you come to work with Disruptive Advertising?

We found them through a Google search. We selected them once it was clear that they were not a small company. We hoped to work with somebody established that had the resources we were looking for.

What is the status of this engagement?

Our engagement began in April 2018 and remains ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Disruptive Advertising has lowered our CPL through PPC campaigns. They’ve made a significant increase in the number of conversions we’re seeing. A half a percentage point may not sound like a lot, but given our traffic, that translates to a substantial amount.

How did Disruptive Advertising perform from a project management standpoint?

We have weekly conference calls, and they provide us with all of the necessary information in Google Data Studio. For the A/B testing, they send the iterations ahead of time in a mockup style so that we can review them before they go live.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They feature the ideal combination of soft skills and research-backed strategies.

Are there any areas they could improve?

It was difficult at first to see a history of our conversion rate testing. We used to receive reports of tests in emails, but sometimes those get buried and lost after you read them once. They have since created a shared Google file where all of that information can be monitored.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

They are worthy of a phone call because they have a low-pressure sales staff. If and when you do enter into an agreement with them, it’s important to consider the amount of money you’re spending to generate leads. If Disruptive Advertising can make those costs lower over the course of the year, it might be worth it to consider them as a viable long-term option. They’re not inexpensive, but they’re worth it.

Disruptive Advertising utilizes their expert-level marketing experience to design, organize, and execute effective PPC campaigns. They work to maintain consistent results while exploring new solutions. A communicative account strategist provides accessible data reports and forthcoming consultation.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the head of marketing for blooom. We’re a startup that helps our users manage their 401K online. Acting as specialized financial advisors, we offer account analysis and consultations for a flat fee.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Disruptive Advertising?

We wanted an experienced advertising firm to oversee the marketing strategy of our paid search campaigns.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Disruptive Advertising helped us to define and implement the best strategy for our marketing push via Google AdWords. They provide frequent data analysis to ensure we’re getting to most of out of PPC campaigns. Open to new ideas, they research viable options based on what we pitch to them. If they don’t expect a plan to work, they’ll explain why using reliable metrics. Their team also delivers regular data reports using Google Analytics.

What is the team composition?

Their account strategist is our main point of contact. I also interact with one of their VPs as well.

How did you come to work with Disruptive Advertising?

Our CEO had a personal relationship with one of their owners. They’d worked with each other in the past, so we knew that Disruptive Advertising would do a great job with whatever we gave them.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent roughly $10,000–$25,000 with them thus far.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in July 2018, and the engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

They keep our current campaigns functioning properly while helping us test new ideas.

How did Disruptive Advertising perform from a project management standpoint?

They’re highly responsive and set our expectations effectively. The account strategist that’s assigned to us is always on top of the project’s moving parts. We have an outstanding meeting set up, but she’s also available if I need additional time to discuss different campaign options. I’m not a PPC expert, so their bite-sized reports have been exceptionally helpful. Presenting complex metrics in a digestible format helps improve our understanding of their efforts.

What did you find most impressive about them?

We look to them as experts. They’re a great addition to our marketing efforts, and we respect their skill set.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I don’t have any criticism to offer.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Don’t be afraid to ask them questions. They’re thorough, helpful, and willing to perform above project expectations.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO of Spoonful of Comfort. We sell and ship soup care packages across the country.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Disruptive Advertising?

We engaged Disruptive Advertising for paid advertising services. We wanted to acquire new customers, increase brand awareness, and continue growing the company.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Disruptive Advertising conducts our paid advertising campaigns. They research the best keywords for us to use and identify our target audience to better structure our campaigns. They also manage our Google Analytics and Google Ads accounts. We receive a weekly report on our current status, which we appreciate.

What is the team composition?

Aaron (Marketing Consultant, Disruptive Advertising) is our dedicated account manager.

How did you come to work with Disruptive Advertising?

A colleague referred them to us.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent between $150,000–$250,000 so far.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in April 2017, and the partnership is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Our business has seen our growth double year over year, and we get an 8% on our ad spend. We’re highly satisfied with Disruptive Advertising’s work.

How did Disruptive Advertising perform from a project management standpoint?

The team stays on top of reporting. Aaron also consistently follows up on tasks and requests. We communicate mainly through phone and email, but occasionally we’ll screenshare.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They’re genuinely open to trying new things that could improve our already excellent results. I can ask Aaron if we can try a new approach; if he’s not familiar with it, he’ll research the idea and get back to me with recommendations. He’ll also come to me with suggestions. We truly value their openness and flexibility.

Are there any areas they could improve?

We would benefit if it were easier to scale approaches that work well for us.

Any advice for potential customers?

It takes time at first for Disruptive Advertising to get to know your business and its specific nuances. Allowing them the freedom to test things out will benefit you in the long run.

Feedback summary: 

The return on ad spend skyrocketed within a few months of engagement. Disruptive Advertising goes above and beyond to meet all needs, while their commitment and willingness to work with a small business contributed to the success of the project.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I'm the store and webstore director at Graywhale Entertainment. We have three retail locations throughout Utah.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Disruptive Advertising?

We've experienced a shift from brick-and-mortar retail purchasing to online purchasing. We started doing SEM in-house, but we weren't seeing the success that we wanted. We needed a vendor to help us grow our online presence.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We meet with them and discuss our strategies and our budget. Then, they develop SEO campaigns and implement them, keeping track of the conversion rate. Without being a Google partner, they have direct access to Google and a lot of inside connections, so they know what works and what doesn't work.

What is the team composition?

We mostly work with their head sales manager and an account manager.

How did you come to work with Disruptive Advertising?

They were recommended to us by some other local companies. They had a track record of success and they seemed very professional and transparent, so we chose them.

How much have you invested with them?

We've spent about $20,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with them in September 2018 and the relationship is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Our return on ad spend was so high after 90 days of working with Disruptive Advertising that they started a Google Ads case study on it to see why it was so successful. SEO was a new territory to us, but Disruptive Advertising made  the whole process seamless, making sure we get the best return on every penny we spend.

How did Disruptive Advertising perform from a project management standpoint?

We talk on the phone every two weeks and we can reach them whenever we need them. They have quick turnaround times and resolve any issues immediately.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They really care about the work that they do for us and make us feel we're worth their time. Also, they're willing to focus on smaller businesses. They have a fee structure that is very beneficial to a small business, so they charge us a flat management fee unless we get over a certain amount of revenue. We're a small business with $3 million in sales yearly, so they succeed when we succeed.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I can't think of anything. I'm 100% satisfied.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Be open and transparent about your customers and your expectations. That enables them to tailor their campaign and the way they present your business online. Their success is intrinsically tied into how well we are doing, so it feels like we're one team.

Feedback summary: 

Disruptive Advertising boasts innovative ways to optimize PPC performance. Although the engagement is still young, the return on ad spend has increased, and the ad targeting is more effective. Clear communication on actionable items help ensure an effortless collaboration.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

USA-CLEAN, Inc. is a nationwide provider of service to commercial-grade cleaning equipment and a retailer of used floor equipment and repair parts with a significant online presence. As an e-commerce specialist, I work with sales and marketing staff to optimize our e-commerce platforms and digital marketing.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Disruptive Advertising?

After a few years with a different vendor, we were getting stagnant or declining results on our PPC ad performance, so we decided to find an agency that could help us reverse this trend.

What were your goals for this project?

In particular, we wanted to shoot for increased growth in the next 6–12 months, capturing more impression shares and increasing the efficiency of our PPC ads.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

After reviewing several vendors, we were impressed by the interesting and different methods that Disruptive Advertising used to optimize their ads. They were also willing to give us concrete goals and shoot for them even before we signed on.

Describe the project in detail.

Disruptive Advertising immediately initiated optimization techniques for our PPC ads at multiple levels, giving us specific goals to achieve over 30- and 90-day periods. In addition, they recommended partners to us in areas where their personal knowledge was not as robust, including improving our analytics integration and our Google shopping feed. They now continue to support our PPC efforts.

What was the team composition?

We primarily work with a team lead and a consultant, both of whom have been very responsive to our questions and requests. We’ve also consulted with an analytics specialist.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any statistics or metrics that speak to the quality of their work and impact of the engagement?

Since we’ve only recently started the engagement, it’s difficult to give specific metrics. However, we’re already seeing an improved return on advertising spend (ROAS) and more effective targeting.

How did the Disruptive Advertising perform from a project management standpoint?

The team is very organized and has excellent communication. Our project manager is great about giving us an agenda before our regular weekly or special calls. He also spells out our action items before the end of the call and sends a recap of the meeting via email.

What impresses you about the Disruptive Advertising?

Their systematic approach to optimization, responsiveness to our changing needs, and focus on results are impressive.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Disruptive Advertising has a great reporting feature, but it still has some significant limitations and bugs. We would’ve liked to use this tool more, but it’s too unreliable. However, this hasn’t hindered us from finding other ways to collect similar information.

Disruptive Advertising delivered a stunning website within their promised 30-day development window. The staff was accommodating in every way and exhibited an evident dedication to quality service. Because of the project’s success, future collaboration is anticipated.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I am the owner of Loyal Wealth Management.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Disruptive Advertising?

I was not pleased with the website developed for me by another vendor. I engaged with Disruptive Advertising to create a website that was more professional and reflected the qualities of my firm—which are that it is client-focused, welcoming, and makes people feel at home.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We got acquainted with a few interviews to discuss my objectives. They picked up on what I wanted fairly quickly. I developed content for the site based on recommendations from them on what would be the most effective in certain spots. They were instrumental in guiding me through this entire process and building a new site from the ground up.

What is the team composition?

Craig (Vice President of E-Commerce, Disruptive Advertising) was my primary point of contact. Jared (Marketing Consultant, Disruptive Advertising) arranged most of our schedule and gave me assignments for what I needed to provide them. And Sarah (Design Team Director, Disruptive Advertising) coordinated the design and any graphic elements for the website.

How did you come to work with Disruptive Advertising?

I was initially intrigued by their company name, but I also had a chance to meet with them in person because their office is only about 15 minutes away from mine. We had a phenomenal face-to-face meeting, and I could tell they had a great team.

How much have you invested with them?

I spent $3,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from February–March 2018. They promised a 30-day project, and they met that deadline. They’ll soon be helping me again because I have decided to change my hosting provider.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

I no longer receive disparaging comments about my site. Everybody is now complimentary and curious which company built it. The comments from my clientele have been fantastic. It’s a first-class site, and it is easy to use. My clients have asked me to increase the amount of content they can find on the site, so I’ll be adding that soon.

How did Disruptive Advertising perform from a project management standpoint?

They were flexible in how we communicated—whether that was by phone, email, or in person. They let me control how I wanted the interaction to be. They are probably the best team I’ve worked with in any capacity in quite some time.

What did you find most impressive about them?

The reason I went independent and started my own firm was because I wanted there to be no other agenda than my clients’ perspective and goals, and I only want to work with firms that are that way. I found that with Disruptive Advertising. They charged me a flat rate, and they accomplished everything just as I wanted it. They demonstrate that the client’s satisfaction is the most important thing.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, everything was just as I wanted it.

Disruptive Advertising’s efforts significantly increased ROI, and all of their campaigns are performing above average. The team manages a smooth collaboration, communicating consistently and offering top-quality customer service. They’re realistic and deliver on all of their promises.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the digital marketing director of Black Clover. We’re a lifestyle apparel brand that sells both online and in-store.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Disruptive Advertising?

We’d had a few negative experiences with paid advertising agencies. We spent a lot of money on social media and Google ads and didn’t experience any return on our investment. We needed a strategic partner to manage our paid ads.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

As a newer brand, we didn’t have a clear-cut marketing strategy. We provided the Disruptive Advertising team with what we had, and they refined our campaigns and added some efforts of their own. The team implemented strategies across Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Google, and most recently Bing. They continue to provide support.

What is the team composition?

Cory (VP of Operations, Disruptive Advertising) is our account manager, but I interact with their full team on a weekly basis.

How did you come to work with Disruptive Advertising?

We noticed that a friend in the industry was doing really well in terms of paid advertising, so we reached out to see who they were working with. They introduced us to Disruptive Advertising and provided a strong recommendation. We had a couple of meetings and shared our goals, and their team was confident they could fulfill our needs. Ultimately, we decided to give them a chance.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent $100,000 so far, with about 30% of that covering management fees.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working with them in May 2018, and it’s an ongoing relationship.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Thanks to Disruptive Advertising’s efforts, we consistently generate an ROI three times larger than our initial spend. We’re currently trending above average in all of our campaigns across all channels.

How did Disruptive Advertising perform from a project management standpoint?

Looking at management skills specifically, they’re the best team we’ve worked with. I communicate with all of their team members weekly, if not daily. Outside of our scheduled meetings and conference calls, we chat through email and over the phone. So far, they’ve met every deadline. They are transparent, responsive, and always available. Overall, it’s been an easy collaboration.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They’re realistic, and they deliver on their promises. Additionally, I appreciate their level of customer service. If I ever need something or want to discuss an idea, they’ll make time for me. They make us feel like their only client—not just one of a hundred.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, we’re very happy with them. If they expanded their business model to include more services, we’d give them even more work. We’re currently outsourcing our needs in the areas that they don’t cover to other vendors.

Any advice for potential customers?

Clients should explicitly explain their goals. We laid out our objectives form the start, and they’ve been accomplishing them ever since. They treat every goal as a new challenge. Overall, they’re a valuable partner as long as communication is clear and transparent.

Unlike other firms, Disruptive Advertising takes time to foster a personal relationship and strives to create successful campaigns instead of just focusing on getting paid. They have an organized and transparent workflow, making them reliable and trustworthy.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO and founder of Slick Text Innovations, an SMS marketing and mass text messaging service. We provide businesses and organizations in North America with online software suites to communicate with their audience via SMS.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Disruptive Advertising?

We needed to improve our PPC. We’d worked with a few agencies in the past, but it never produced the results we wanted, so we needed a new partner.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Disruptive Advertising initially worked on our Google Ads account and our Facebook ads, trying to increase their performance. They then took on more responsibility, such as designing ads, videos, and landing pages.

What is the team composition?

We work with a senior account strategist and a marketing consultant.

How did you come to work with Disruptive Advertising?

Our marketing director found them online. We had a few different options, but we were pleased with Disruptive Advertising, so we hired them.

What is the status of this engagement?

We’ve been working together since June 2018.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

They’ve completely turned our paid ads around; last month was the best month we’ve ever had. Our cost per conversion is at an all-time low (about half of what we used to pay), and the number of conversions is at an all-time high (triple what we used to get). I’ve recommended them to several colleagues because they’re so good.

How did Disruptive Advertising perform from a project management standpoint?

They have a transparent workflow and manage the project extremely well; much better than previous agencies we’ve worked with. We have weekly meetings to review the performance of the campaigns and discuss any new ideas. Several hours before our call, they send an agenda that I can review in case I have any questions or concerns. Throughout the week, they message me to get my feedback and explain any changes.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Out of all the marketing teams I’ve worked with, Disruptive Advertising has been the most successful. We have a personal relationship, and they care about our success. I’m not just another customer to them; they care deeply and do high-quality work.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Feedback summary: 

Every social campaign has dramatically improved click-through rates and user engagement. Disruptive Advertising amazes with their organized workflow, flexible scaling, and fluid communication. Each team member brings deep industry knowledge and a dedicated, results-driven work ethic. 

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the head of social media for Adobe's Digital Experience Business.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Disruptive Advertising?

I hired Disruptive Advertising to help manage, strategize, and execute our paid social campaigns. They focus on driving top-level awareness for our Adobe Experience Cloud. 

What were your goals for this project?

Our main metrics are click-through rate and engagement.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I had a personal relationship with their CEO, so I hired him for social media training. They also audited our paid programs and delivered great feedback. I was specifically impressed with their VP of paid social. He had a uniquely deep, strategic knowledge of each platfom. We started hiring them to help with the management of our significant spend. 

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

Disruptive Advertising is an extension of my team. We connect closely with them to help everything run smoothly. They work with my team leads on social media marketing, including audience targeting, content and copy creation, and reporting. 

What was the team composition?

We selected a package that includes their VP of paid social, so he spends time on the account. It's great to access his depth, strategy, and knowledge. Our team lead, who also runs our Twitter advertising, couldn't be any better. Multiple team members run our LinkedIn, and another handles Facebook and creative. Our agreement also includes creative and training resources. The end-to-end team composition is fantastic and solid.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

I'm thrilled with the results. Their strategy and organization have placed us in a great place. We've seen powerful results on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter, and we achieve best-in-class engagement and click-through rates. 

Our success hinges on how smoothly the program runs. Disruptive Advertising keeps us organized and mobile. We couldn't do it without them. Because of their superior resources, they structure campaigns with far more depth and sophistication than we can. 

Our organized, powerful program can scale infinitely while maintaining incredible performance. Disruptive Advertising has taken us to new heights. If you do any performance marketing, stop reading and call them. 

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

It's fantastic! Their communication and work ethic are unmatched. I've worked with many massive marketing agencies, and Disruptive Advertising simply outshines them.

I appreciate their ability to staff up while remaining scrappy, communicative, and focused on results. We have an open relationship and always share results. Small issues or miscommunications occasionally arise, just like in any relationship, but we work through challenges quickly. 

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I'm impressed by so much! I'm a big fan of their leadership, but am continually impressed by the direct team. This group doesn't just talk the talk; they walk the walk. I couldn't be happier with them and have no plans to end this relationship. Hopefully, we'll find more opportunities to work together.

Are there any areas for improvement?

They should only keep up the great work! I would only point out the continual need to focus on tiny details. Disruptive Advertising is incredible at this, but there's always room for improvement. When you deal with social content at a large organization, there are ample opportunities to make small mistakes like typos or targeting mixups. We've worked through small issues, and I have total confidence in them, but it's always good to check everything three or four times. Overall, however, I'm thrilled. I'm just nitpicking.

Feedback summary: 

Customer acquisition costs have dropped dramatically since Disruptive Advertising was first engaged. Expertise and meticulousness are hallmarks of their work. Consistent communication, responsiveness, and knowledge of the marketing industry justify the investment and make them a valuable partner.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m a partner at Fielding Law, a personal injury law firm with offices in Utah and Texas.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Disruptive Advertising?

We were looking for ways to get more clients at better prices.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Disruptive Advertising designed new landing pages for our law firm to help with our marketing efforts. They also took over our Google PPC ad campaigns, which they’ve been managing for over six months.

What is the team composition?

Our main point of contact is Chelsea (senior marketing strategist, Disruptive Advertising). We also work with Colby (VP of lead generation, Disruptive Advertising), who leads the team. Chelsea does most of the day-to-day work running our campaign.

How did you come to work with Disruptive Advertising?

We’d heard about them through several channels. My brother and partner, Mitchell, had been friends with someone at Disruptive Advertising for quite some time. We also heard from other firms who had positive things to say about them.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together around May 2018 and we the engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

One of the key metrics in our business is the cost per acquired personal injury case. We’d been working with another marketing company, but our cost per case remained high. Disruptive Advertising helped us lower the acquisition cost. They’ve also improved the quality of the leads that we receive. They did a great job on the landing pages as well.

How did Disruptive Advertising perform from a project management standpoint?

Their team is the best, really top of the line. Chelsea communicates with us frequently via email. We have a weekly standing call on Friday mornings to go the over performance of our account. It gives us a chance to ask any questions and talk about the projects we're working on. We also meet with them in person from time to time.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Disruptive Advertising really cares about us and our success. Their communication is better than other companies. Their team is smarter and more in touch with what's going on in the industry.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I can't think of anything.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

It helps to develop a good working relationship. Be clear on communication and expectations. Let their team know what your goals are as a company so that they can see the bigger picture. They’ll help you get where you want to go.
