KlientBoost

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the COO of Grubbly Farms, an online specialty animal feed store catering to the burgeoning backyard chicken market. Our company has excelled at content creation and branding however we needed additional assistance when it came to the data analytics and ad optimization side of things.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire KlientBoost?

We needed help with our ad optimization. While we were excelling in content creation and social media marketing, we were spending too much time managing our ad spend and trying to optimize it. We needed help, but it did not make sense to hire someone. Our goal was to improve our ROAS in FB and Google advertising.

What were your goals for this project?

Our goals were to increase ad sales by 15% each month initially without increasing budget.As we have continued to work with them over the past year we have adjusted our goals to match needs of the company and economic climate at various times.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We interviewed several agencies over the course of a few months by having several conversations, reading through whitepapers and speaking with various references. We chose Klientboost because they had a very impressive team, a clear path to achieve our goals and a track record proven through their references and whitepapers. Price was also a larger consideration. Klientboost's pricing came in around the middle of the pack, but we felt they were a great fit and decided to move forward.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

In their initial scope, they were working on optimizing ad spend and placement for Google and FB ads. Our goal was to increase revenue by 15% while keep costs the same. Since then, we have also included google optimize to work on CRO for our website.

What was the team composition?

The main members of our team are Bobby and Tyler. Bobby is our account lead and our main point of contact. Bobby is responsible for ad optimization on Google and FB while Tyler is responsible for designing the changes to our site for CRO testing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

While the start was a little shaky as we launch new campaigns, working with Klientboost has been a great success. We have achieved our goals of increasing ROAS and ad revenue by 15%. Recently, we have seen a large uptick in demand and Klientboost has been very helpful there by deploying additional ads and managing a much larger advertising budget.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We have standing weekly meeting where we review how our accounts have performed, where the successes and failures were and what adjustments can be made to improve. In addition, we have started using Asana to keep everyone on the same page about ad creation (our side) and implementation (their side) as well as track what is needed for google optimize.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

We greatly appreciate the dialogue between Bobby and our team. It allows us to stay agile while still working with an outside entity. Bobby is very responsive to our emails, requests for changes in ads, etc. They definitely feel like they blur the line between being an agency and part of the team.

Are there any areas for improvement?

There is not too much more we can ask for. Klientboost has been very receptive to our feedback and have made adjustments to accommodate us like using Asana.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Director of Marketing for a fintech company servicing the automotive retail sector.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire KlientBoost?

We worked with KlientBoost on a 6-month discovery/test for direct to consumer marketing.

What were your goals for this project?

Our goals were to test messaging and mine target audience data.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I learned of KlientBoost through an online search that turned up one of their blog articles. I interviewed at least 5 companies and KlientBoost really stood out to me in terms of expertise, experience and professionalism.

Describe the project in detail.

Historically, the service had been provided to consumers at the automotive dealership. We wanted to determine what level of interest there might be through online channels. We started with PPC to test search terms, messaging and to determine if online audiences would vary from those in the brick and mortar stores.

What was the team composition?

I worked directly with the account manager who was also implementing the PPC campaign.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We achieved our objectives for this discovery campaign.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We met every other week to keep the project on course and via email communications. This level of communication was sufficient.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Expertise ran deep in the company. Often you will be sold by the owner or the business dev person to then have lackluster performance but the folks managing your account. This was not the case with KlientBoost.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

My company is a PPC provider. I'm the sole worker as I'm an independent contractor.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire KlientBoost?

Before KlientBoost, we had never done any sort of PPC or had much of an online presence. The thought of investing money into something that was pretty foreign to us was not only scary but was seen as us “throwing money into a bottomless pit” by some of our partners. It didn’t take long before we not only made our investment back but also started profiting off of our partnership with KlientBoost.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted to increase our online advertising presence as well as learn the ins and outs of online advertising as best as we could to be able to bring the project in-house.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We did as much research as possible before diving headfirst into a partnership with KlientBoost. We looked at competitors, individuals providing similar services, and even started learning about PPC and SEO ourselves so that we may keep it in-house. However, the knowledge, transparency and honesty, and quality of work we saw when we spoke to them blew us away. Looking back, all of the research we did truly helped us see what a gem KlientBoost is.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

KlientBoost worked on the company's PPC account before I had to stop for personal reasons. Our account manager's work was incredible. His knowledge and expertise on the subject matter was top tier. From targeting specific areas to placing specific keyword bids, Mitchell was an incredible asset.

What was the team composition?

We had one account manager in Mitchell. He was so professional and the ultimate "no b.s." manager. He didn't tell us what we wanted to hear, he told us what was actually going on and that's so vital in a work relationship. He did a phenomenal job with the account.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

It would be easy for me to say that we now have a positive ROI since we first started working with KlientBoost. While that’s true, it’s been incredible to see how many people have found us while looking for a competitor’s services. Being able to progressively take a bigger slice out of our market share has been unbelievable.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Incredible. Mitchell, who was our account manager, was always on top of his workload and if we ever had any concerns he was always quick to reply with an explanation as to why we shouldn't be worried. He was on point every time.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The fact that they seem to enjoy what they do. They're a no b.s. company and hopefully they keep it that way. Their input is so valuable and their knowledge of all things online marketing related is incredible.

Are there any areas for improvement?

They do so much right that it's hard to find a flaw with how they do business. Their managers are straightforward with their work and changes they make. If there's any improvement that could've been made it was from my end in communication.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

While I worked with KlientBoost, I was working at a project management software company called Mavenlink. While there, I served as the Marketing Communications Coordinator and was in charger of our social media strategy.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire KlientBoost?

We were looking for a new way to attract customers, and had tried some social media advertising without many results. We sought out KlientBoost because we wanted to work with experts in social media advertising.

What were your goals for this project?

Our goals were to attract qualified leads and add to our sales pipeline while learning more about social media marketing.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

After researching potential vendors online, we met with three different companies. KlientBoost stood out as the best option because they were clearly passionate about social media marketing and had the expertise necessary to help us achieve our goals. In addition to myself, the main decision makers were the VP of Marketing and Director of Marketing Communications.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

KlientBoost helped us amplify our preexisting content and attract new leads through creative lead generation techniques. They focused on A/B testing to help us optimize our campaigns. We started off with just Facebook marketing, then added LinkedIn. Although we provided the content, they designed and set up all the creative around ads and landing pages. I served as the point of contact on our end, and we met once a week to discuss strategy and results.

What was the team composition?

Throughout our relationship with KlientBoost, we worked with an ad manager that helped with strategy and implementation and a creative manager that put together the ads and landing pages.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We measured the success of the campaigns based on a cost-per-lead target that we determined based on our other marketing channels. Within a few weeks, they were able to beat the target, providing more leads at a lower cost than we had imagined.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Our communication was mostly through email and Slack, and they were very receptive to feedback and quick to respond. The creative was always put together rather quickly, and they were always receptive to feedback from our creative team.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Although I have not worked with other vendors, it was clear based on their work that the folks at KlientBoost were experts in their field. They taught us a lot about social media marketing, and we were very happy with the results.

Are there any areas for improvement?

The only thing that I think could have improved was the pace of onboarding and setting up initial campaigns, but we were definitely responsible for a lot of the minor issues that occurred.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am a Marketing Associate at a health and wellness company based in Orange County.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire KlientBoost?

We hired KlientBoost to help us building brand awareness around a new product, generating leads, and optimizing our ads in the process.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted to generate leads and build brand awareness around a new product so that it can gain a better reputation.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I researched a lot of different agencies, but KlientBoost stood out to me the most with its great reviews and when speaking with their staff.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

After we got onboarded with KlientBoost, we had discovery meetings to discuss my company and its products in great detail. From then, we established what goals we wanted for the new product, and KlientBoost executed them accordingly by establishing a timeline. We had an account manager setting up our ad account, writing the copy, and optimizing the ads, and the designer designed our ad images and landing pages.

What was the team composition?

I worked closely with the account manager and designer, and the director ensured that I was satisfied with KlientBoost's services.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We reached our lead goals within 3 days, and we were able to decrease our CPA by half.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The account manager communicated with me daily via Slack, and we also had a weekly meeting to go over results. The communication between KlientBoost and me was very fast and went smoothly.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I am impressed by how quickly I was able to see results. I am also impressed by their fast communication.

Are there any areas for improvement?

I do not see any areas of improvement.

I am the CEO at Yoga International, a global provider of digital streaming yoga, meditation, and educational program.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire KlientBoost?

Paid media strategy and implementation particularly on Google, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and other channels

What were your goals for this project?

Drive incremental revenue and company growth

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We interviewed multiple digital media agencies looking for the best combination of confidence, innovation, and understanding of our space. We also considered cost, timing, and experience.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

The first step was understanding our existing strategies, audience, and assets. We quickly transitioned to some initial tests to prove concepts. Once we had this base understanding we continued to iterate different digital media strategies across all of our advertising platforms in order to drive lower cost acquisition and increase revenue.

What was the team composition?

Our vice president of marketing, myself, creative team, marketing associates all work together to implement the strategy alongside Klientboost.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Klientboost has been an important part of our company growth since mid 2018. Yoga International has achieved consistent rankings within the Inc. 5000 fastest growing companies in the USA. Overall company growth is approximately 100% since we began working with Klientboost two years ago.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Communication is the key to working with any agency. Klientboost's communication has been extremely flexible and they’ve adapted to our needs. They’ve always been open to different reporting were close to suit our unique requirements.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

At the end of the day, results are always what count. Klientboost has been able to achieve results that we were unable to achieve on our own or with previous agencies.

Are there any areas for improvement?

We are always iterating and finding better workflows. This is always critical when working with any agency especially as the digital media space evolves and changes so rapidly. Outside of some reporting tweaks that we have continually changed, there’s been very little need to focus on major areas of improvement

Digital Advertising & Design Agency. Owner and operator.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire KlientBoost?

KlientBoost is managing Paid Advertisements on Social and Google for one of my eCommerce clients.

What were your goals for this project?

We went to KlientBoost with the goal of establishing and then growing our online client audience.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

KlientBoost has a great reputation in the industry!

Describe the project in detail.

My client had worked with other Paid Ad agencies in the past but was unable to achieve the goals they were looking for. At one point, they became so frustrated working with other agencies that they considered closing their eCommerce store and only focusing on Wholesale.

Shortly after I started working with this client, we established a new online marketing strategy that included KlientBoost to take over management of the client's paid ads. Since working with KlientBoost they have been able to identify who are primary online clients are and we are now on track to hit a 4 ROAS in the coming months.

What was the team composition?

I work directly with our KlientBoost account manager and provide updates to the client on a bi-weekly basis.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

At first, there was an initial slow growth period during the accounts learning phase. Throughout the learning phase, the performance of the account increased. From the learning phase, KlientBoost was able to identify who is our target audience.

KlientBoost continued to improve on our target audience by updating the targeting in our ad accounts to focusing on demographics that provide a higher ROI. We are now on track to hit a 4 ROAS in a few months.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Excellent!

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their follow through and performance deliverables impressed me.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Not that I can think of.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire KlientBoost?

We engaged KlientBoost replace an incumbent PPC/Social agency who had plateaued, having seemingly run out of ideas on new ways to improve performance.

What were your goals for this project?

- Improve ROAS - reduce CPA - scale successful program with increased spending and minimal negative impact on ROAS

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I had worked with KB in the past. They brought a professional and organized approach to our account and quickly delivered significant improvements to both our social and PPC programs. It was a no-brainer to engage them with my current employer when it became clear that our campaigns needed a refresh.

Describe the project in detail.

We met with the team via Zoom where we walked them through our pain points and set expectations with respect to what KB would be doing and when. The KB team outlined what our strategy should look like and got buy in from the team on our side. As a finance person I try to look at projects through a lens that I can understand. PPC programs and the language used around them don't naturally fall into this lens. In response, I made a number of requests for uniquely framed reporting requirements to help me monitor account health and progress. While other firms have struggled to develop these reports, KB was quickly able to create them - a welcome change.

What was the team composition?

Our day to day contact is a senior account manager (who is far more experienced/effective/professional than account managers that we've worked with in the past - both in and out of the PPC world). We also have access to an ecommerce Director and creative team.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

It's still early days, but we are already seeing positive results ahead of the schedule that we set out during the initial meetings. We've seen improvements to ROAS for both PPC and social. We are very pleased with the results thus far.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We speak on a weekly basis where our account manager runs a very efficient meetings. Generally their responses to email/slack messages is timely.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their domain knowledge and ability to quickly, effectively take the reigns on a new account has been very impressive.

Are there any areas for improvement?

None at the moment.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the CEO of Proof, a startup that helps businesses increase conversions through website personalization and social proof.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire KlientBoost?

We have been trying to grow our blog traffic for the last year and a half and having success, but when the person running our content strategy suddenly left, we were stuck trying to figure out how to continue making progress. I turned to Klientboost and they were able to quickly step in and pick up where we left off while also bringing a ton of additional experience and knowledge to the table that we didn't have before.

What were your goals for this project?

Our goal is to create high quality content that increases the quality and quantity of bottom of funnel leads for our sales team. We are looking to concretely increase revenue, not just traffic or clicks.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We looked at several vendors, but ultimately chose Klientboost because they had worked with several other B2B SaaS companies we looked up to and also their team is amazing and a ton of fun to work with. They feel like an extension of Proof which is rare in a relationship like this.

Describe the project in detail.

We started off by identifying the goal and crafting the strategy for our content creation. Then Ben helped us make quite a few on-site SEO changes that we had overlooked in how we built and structured our site and blog.Then they started creating content for us and adding it to our blog.

What was the team composition?

We work directly with Ben in a Slack channel. I'm not sure who all writes content on their team, but frankly I don't care or even want to know. I just want to work with Ben and let him manage the entire project end to end and that's what I have.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We're still early on, but in the first 15 days of actual work going live, we've already seen our organic traffic increase by 12% and according to Ahrefs, our "Traffic Value" has increased 32%. Not a bad start!

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

It's very effective. They are great to work with and on the ball.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They are both experienced and really, really fun. Overall, our entire company loves Klientboost and they have been nothing but great to work with.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Partly due to Ben having a new baby (understandable), COVID-19, and our team not being as responsive as we needed, we got off to a slower start in creating content than I had hoped for, but after a few weeks we're catching back up and rolling now.

BACKGROUND

Describe the project in detail.

We had a series of discovery meetings where we described what we were looking to do. KB came back to us with wireframes upon which we selected a few to go to design. After we got the designs we worked with developers to bring them to life.

We worked with various members of the company even the CEO. He took great interest in our project and helped see it from start to finish.

The actually understand direct response marketing and took the time to understand our specific goals. Other companies typically lose sight of the end goal while KlientBoost was laser focused.
