A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m a marketing executive for a manufacturer and distributor of health care supplies and health care marketing materials.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with ParaCore?

For quite a long time, we managed our paid ads in-house by multiple people. We had turnover, so it became quite a mess. We also didn’t keep up with Google Ads trends.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

ParaCore cleaned up our paid ads and got us on track. They focus on Google Ads and LinkedIn Ads. Their team experimented with LinkedIn Ads because we wanted to understand our audience’s engagement with the platform.

Their team leads the way with most of our text ads. We gave them background and value propositions, and then they took it from there. With visual ads, we either provide them with assets or their team create's them. For our larger accounts, ParaCore implements new ads, queries, and content.

What is the team composition?

We communicate with our two main account managers who also connect us with their technical team to test forms and conversions. We’ve also been in contact with their owner.

How did you come to work with ParaCore?

We worked with a lead generation company that referred us to ParaCore.

How much have you invested with them?

At this point, we’ve probably spent between $90,000–$100,000 on their services.

What is the status of this engagement?

We brought them on board around September 2018, and the engagement’s ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We track ROI and ROAS (return on ad spend). We want to have a 4:1 ratio for ROAS They’ve been able to maintain that, which is remarkable.

How did ParaCore perform from a project management standpoint?

We mainly communicate via e-mail but also have a monthly phone call. Their team provides monthly stats, including graphs and trends. They also recap all of our meetings, so their team’s transparent and organized.

What did you find most impressive about them?

We’re a complex organization and regularly present them with challenges. ParaCore has offered a wide range of solutions. They try a unique approach to each challenge, which is important.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I don’t have any constructive feedback.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

It’s important to give them visibility into your long-term direction because it helps them to plan their efforts.

Feedback summary: 

ParaCore guaranteed the business success, and they delivered. Through their advertising efforts, they have managed to provide great value, including a significant increase in ROI. In addition to documenting the project well, the team is able to transform the vision into tangible results. 

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the president and CEO of Mariners Learning System.  We are a Coast Guard-approved online school that teaches people to get their captain’s license. We have over 65,000 graduates and 10,000 students currently taking courses, including some from around the world.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with ParaCore?

Initially, we needed CallRail implemented to track where calls were coming from.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

For the CallRail project, ParaCore assessed our business goals and made recommendations. They were in charge of the installation, account setup with CallRail, and setting up the dynamic phone numbers on our website. 

They made sure we had the proper interfaces for analytics so we could see how it was all working. The system identifies where calls come from, working through Google Ads. When someone sees an ad, they’re served a unique telephone number, through which they can be tracked. 

To initiate it on our site, they had to change the physical manner in which our website was built out to have dynamic phone numbers rather than static ones.

Since then, the team has shifted into doing SEO, PPC, Google ads, and social media marketing for us on Facebook. They create ads, propose strategies, and take on the full responsibility for all of our ads and ad copy. 

What is the team composition?

I have worked with four teammates, but I have two main points of contact who serve as account managers. Adam (President & Founder) is available anytime I need him, and they have other teammates internally working on my account.

How did you come to work with ParaCore?

I found them online when I was searching for companies who work with CallRail, as it was a new technology. Adam had intricate knowledge, and the team possessed the expertise I required.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent $75,000–$100,000 so far.

What is the status of this engagement?

We began working together in September 2018, and our engagement is ongoing. I would be unhappy if that were to change.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Initially, I didn’t want any SEO or PPC work due to prior bad experiences, but ParaCore made a bold guarantee of my satisfaction, saying that I could pay what I felt it was worth at the end of the month. So, I gave it a try. 

After the first month, there was more value than I was spending. There has been an 80% increase in ROI from May 2019 to May 2020. In April 2020, ad spend was $12,000 and ROI was $90,000, which is more than 5 to 1 return. In May 2020, ad spend was $15,578 and ROI was $84,568, more than 4 to 1 return. 

How did ParaCore perform from a project management standpoint?

They have excellent documentation. We have monthly meetings, which are just a formality at this point since they fully know and understand my vision. I don’t have to give much input at all.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They take my vision and turn it into reality. They are like an extension of my company, getting excited about the results and success just like I do. In my experience, this is a rarity. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, none that I can think of.

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO of TouchPoint Solution. We invented a consumer wellness device that takes away stress in 30 seconds. We sell by e-commerce primarily.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with ParaCore?

We hired ParaCore to help with our advertising efforts.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

ParaCore manages all of our social media and Google Ads media buying. While I’m particular and come to them with ideas, they’re a collaborative partner. Their team gives suggestions and different ideas. There’s a healthy amount of give and take. Generally, we give them content such as stock images and videos for them to place.

What is the team composition?

I interface with an account manager but there are also 2–3 people who support my account on the backend.

How did you come to work with ParaCore?

I found ParaCore through a referral. When I was on the introductory sales call, I told the account manager about my immediate issue, which was that my Facebook pixel wasn’t firing. The account manager fixed my pixel on the spot. I thought that if their team was that efficient during a sales call, then they were going to be efficient when actually servicing my account.

How much have you invested with them?

We spend about $3,000 a month on their services.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in May 2017 and it’s an ongoing engagement.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We target conversions, so a true ROA (return on ad spend). Our ROA fluctuates based on the seasons and algorithm changes. Whenever possible, ParaCore definitely helps to maximize it.

How did ParaCore perform from a project management standpoint?

We have a standing call weekly. and hold a monthly recap meeting. They’re also always available via e-mail. There team’s good about deadlines. Everything’s ready before sales. They’re great about holiday periods such as Black Friday. During peak season, their team watches 24/7 to manipulate ads.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their greatest asset is their collaborative personality. They’re truly a partner.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I wish their team helped to make content. That would make the process easier.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Come with a plan but also be open to feedback.

They’re very detailed in keeping us in the loop on their progress. The team is detailed through our monthly call. We discuss our most successful keywords and leads.

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the owner of SGI Property Management. We do single-family residential property management in the Phoenix, Las Vegas, and Dallas markets.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with ParaCore?

We wanted a provider that could effectively help us perform PPC, which wasn’t a task we wanted to do in-house. We had a previous provider but wanted a better option.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

ParaCore directed everything related to PPC. Their team created ads for Google and set up tracking capabilities. They made sure their efforts were integrated with our CRM. Their team didn’t leave us to figure anything out. Rather, ParaCore ensured our systems were seamless, clean, and integrated to help us not miss any leads.

Briefly, we tried Facebook Ads. They tested initiatives on the platform to see if we could gain traction. Typically, it’s not a strategy that works well in our industry and didn’t return results.

What is the team composition?

I worked with the owner, Adam (President and Founder, ParaCore). For a good period of time, Giancarlo (Senior Account Manager, ParaCore) was our main point of contact. Toward the end, we worked with another account manager.

How did you come to work with ParaCore?

Prior to working with them, I stumbled my way around the industry for a few years. I’d engaged with other companies but had a relationship with the owner of ParaCore. I expressed frustrations with our past providers and asked if he’d be willing to take on this project, knowing that it was a newer space for them.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent $47,300 over the course of our relationship.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together between November 2015–May 2019.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

To measure success, we looked at the cost per conversion. Since we’re real estate related, the landscape changes quickly. We were with ParaCore so long that they had to adjust throughout the project. When compared to other PPC companies, our cost per conversion was about 30% less and we experienced similar volumes.

How did ParaCore perform from a project management standpoint?

We communicated by e-mail primarily. We also had monthly calls when I received metrics. Their team initiated conversations, which was what I wanted. With previous companies, I had to reach out when ads went stale, performance dropped off, and conversion rates declined. Their team was on me about changes to campaigns. Instead, they did the work and thinking, which was exactly what I wanted.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They learned a new industry, which a lot of people couldn’t do. Their team implemented their understanding quickly. Being in property management, we’re not an attractive space as we intend to attract the people that own rental homes rather than those who want to rent homes. It's an important nuance that can really drive up the ad spend and crush conversions if they didn’t understand the difference. They understood the difference and worked toward our goals the whole time.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I don’t have any complaints or recommendations.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Stay engaged and communicate with them. They thrive off the insight that’s gained from being within the industry. Help them help you.

The client submitted this review online.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the Director of Sales and Marketing for Alphagraphics, a print, sign, marketing and apparel company in the greater Phoenix area.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire ParaCore?

We hired paracore to manage a complicate SEM campaign involving 10 different franchised stores in the greater Phoenix area. These 10 stores are owned by 5 different owner groups.

What were your goals for this project?

Are goal was to attract and capture qualified B2B leads ideal for our services.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

Paracore has a great reputation in the Phoenix area. They were referred to us by several existing clients of thiers. And their specialization in SEM services was a big plus.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

After we selected this vendor, we had several discover meetings to focus on the scope of the project. We were not an easy vendor to master, given our unique franchise and ownership structures. Paracore set-up separate landing pages for each location, including location-sensitive mapping to be sure leads were funneled to the correct location. This was no easy task.

What was the team composition?

We worked directly with Adam, the principle at Paracore, during the discovery phase and were then handed off to the management team, consisting of 2 direct contacts.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We were impressed by paracore's ability to customize our campaign to work with our unique structure.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We experienced great communication from Paracore's team with reliable consistency. Very responsive and alert to our needs.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I appreciate their ability to be upfront, honest and direct about what we need to do to be successful in this process. SEM can be a very expensive venture if left unchecked, and we felt comfortable with ParaCore at the helm.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Knowing then what we know now, I would have worked on harnessing and focussing our scope early on.
