OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire GrowMyAds.com, and what were your goals?

We had overflow work which required ad management and began looking for switched on contractors who had a deep understanding of Google Ads.

SOLUTION

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

We needed someone who was hands on and knew what they were doing. Dealing with most agencies meant we were speaking to an account manager or sales person instead of discussing ideas and strategy with the specialist themselves. After meeting with Luke from Growmyads, he instilled a lot of trust after demonstrating and pointing out key areas we could perform.

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

Growmyads ran an audit and stepped me through each over an online meeting. This demonstrated they knew what they were doing as they really dug into our campaign and pointed out flaws which we missed. Since handing the campaign to them, we're sent monthly progress reports and rarely schedule meetings as the campaign has enjoyed smooths sailing.

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

I worked with Luke directly.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The goal was to scale volume while keeping CPA steady which they have done.

Communication has been pretty easy. We're in a shared channel to ask direct questions, and are sent monthly progress reports. If needed, we schedule online meetings which we're able to do usually within 48hrs.

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

Their overall knowledge on adwords but also deeper undertanding of how language / visuals affect performance. They are not your average paid search agency.

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

I wish they built landing pages.

I only worked with Luke. He was an SEM consultant.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

This was the most expensive and least effective work I've had done on my site in the 10 years I've run it. It cost more than a thousand dollars US and I saw no measurable results.

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

I found Luke inexplicably arrogant.

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

I did not find anything impressive or unique about this company.

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

I ran the logs for the last 30 days and it looked to me that about 2 hours work had been done in that time. To be fair, Luke did refund me half of the money for that 30 day period because such a small amount of work had been done.

BACKGROUND

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire GrowMyAds.com?

I hired Luke Donoghue to develop a next level strategy for my business that would extend to Google and other platforms.

SOLUTION

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

Referral from a very trusted friend.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

Was super excited to work with Luke! As anyone will tell you it is not easy to find a capable marketer who is trusted, and very attentive. Luke came highly recommended from a friend who used Lukes expertise to scale his business 3 fold within just a year. For many years my business solely used Facebook and Instagram and I was looking to scale and expand to Google and Youtube.

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

I worked solely with Luke Donoghue.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

I was certainly not disappointed! Out of the gate super professional, attentive, and delivered. He was always careful to manage expectations which I understand especially since online marketing is going through so many changes. Was very happy with the result and insights I got from Luke Donoghue.

But the part that I was most impressed with was the care, I felt like he really had my best interest at heart and treated me like someone he had a genuine interest in helping. With Luke I experience a level of hard work and genuine care that is hard to come by. But most importantly I was satisfied with Lukes efforts!

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

They were very effective.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire GrowMyAds.com?

We were looking to optimise the way we invest in paid traffic through Google Adwords. We wanted to make sure we were making the most out of our keywords, ads, and landing pages and get the right people searching for what we have to offer onto our website.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

Through someone in my network I heard about GrowMyAds. I contacted them, and after some free advice on our Adwords account we decided to start working with them.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

They know everything about running successful Adwords campaigns, we know everything about our industry. So we started connecting the dots there. We explained to them what we do, what problem we solve, for who. Based on that, the experts at GrowMyAds were able to start optimising our account by looking at specific keywords to target and to ignore.

Deciding which types of ads work best. What kind of metrics we should make decisions on. Making sure tracking was set up correctly to allow for these metrics to flow in properly. Coming up with new ideas to allow the people who's problem we can solve might be able to find our company.

What was the team composition?

I've had close contact with one of the ad experts through bi-weekly catch up meetings and online chat. Behind the scenes more people were working on our account.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

By weeding out campaigns that were not performing well and nurturing campaigns that were above our ROI threshold, we were able to increase the efficiency of our account across the board, which improved our overall ROI.

We have a better foundation of the whole account now because we improved the ad performance tracking, allowing for more accurate data inflow into Google's optimisation algorithm which will be beneficial for the long term. Furthermore, the entire account is organised a lot better than before, making maintenance a lot easier.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

For small things we used an online chat platform which worked well. For more in depth discussions we had online meetings. Overall a very smooth way of working.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The fact that they already took care of things I was about to ask them. You could sense that they have tons of experience which was a great reassuring feeling that things were taken care of properly.

Is there any area for improvement or anything that could have been done differently?

I can't think of anything.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the founder of an online ecommerce store. We sell culinary kitchen knives and relevant kitchenware.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire GrowMyAds.com, and what were your goals?

We were looking to improve our RoAS and structure our Google Ads account. We hired them to manage our ads account and get us out of the rut, helping us migrate from Smart Shopping Ads to PMAX.

SOLUTION

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

I found GrowMyAds online and was very impressed with the message on their website. I spoke to them on the phone and decided to go with them vs. others due to how direct and honest they were from the beginning. Other referrals I examined failed to address some of my concerns and provided me with comfort in a partner I could trust.

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

We began with an audit and a phone call prior to signing the contract. The team came back with honest feedback and a roadmap during our second call which we discussed in detail and then decided to proceed. Upon signing the contract we set up an online messaging system and proceeded with the implementation of the plan. We had a couple of calls thereafter to review results, but mostly we would chat over the messaging app, which I found very convenient.

The team recommended other channels as well and continually tested and provided ideas. They were very active on the account and continually made improvements along the way. Initially, in the account, we only had Smart Shopping Campaigns but the team tested and implemented a wider range of campaign types. They also actively managed and tested various assets in the PMAX campaign.

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

We had two senior people managing the account, one of which was the cofounder.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The account's final RoAs was within the expectation they set during the audit and introductory calls.

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

The team was very easy to communicate with, and we used an online messaging system to keep in sync. Where needed, we had phone calls to go over things in more detail.

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

I felt the team was highly trustworthy and upfront about setting expectations and discussing results. I did not feel pressured to work with them or think they needed micromanagement.

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

It was an overall positive experience.
