UAWC Agency

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am owner of a digital advertising/marketing agency in Germany.

For what projects/services did your company hire UAWC Agency, and what were your goals?

We wanted someone to take care of our lead generation and and find additional target audiences in different markets.

How did you select UAWC Agency and what were the deciding factors?

I have heard about them from a business partner and then decided to get on a call with them to see what kind of fit we would be.

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

They first started with Google Ads as a test phase and a lower budget. After successful results we decided to expand and hand over more projects to them, which they handled well. Additionally they always offered their input and expertise wherever they thought necessary, so basically they were an extension of our agency and we ended up being very close business partners.

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

Usually there are about 3 responsible for most of the work we provide.

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

I am able to say that they achieved very positive ROIs, especially with Google and Facebook Ads.

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

They are very organized and we share similar tools for communication and project management, so everything worked very well.

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

They proved how much they care about delivering results and were always ready to put in extra work if necessary.

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

There is nothing to complain about. They overperformed and got the results we were hoping to achieve.

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the Co-Founder of Wize Mentoring, a mentoring service and community for Accountants and Bookkeepers.

For what projects/services did your company hire UAWC Agency?

I have been using Facebook Ads to generate leads for my business, but with no overall "blueprint" or strategy in place that I could understand or specifically measure the results. We plan on using Digital marketing to grow our business so I needed a team who could help put a solid strategy in place that was tested and that would be refined as we grow.

What were your goals for this project?

To audit our existing Facebook Ad strategy and determine if it was fit for purpose or needed to be changed/improved.

How did you select this vendor?

I was referred to UAWC and it was their initial Audit process and the value provided in this process that made the decision to select them very easy. There was clear science / method behind their strategies and they communicated it in a way that made sense to someone who doesn't understand the ad platform on a technical level.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

Facebook + Instagram Ads Campaign Action Plan Set up Post Engagement campaign to amplify on best evergreen organic posts Set up Website Conversions campaign for TOF and BOF audiences Create at least 5 different Ad sets such as Remarketing, Lookalikes based on different actions on your website (for example on those who performed a micro event), cross interests etc.

Split test at least 3 creatives in each Ad set. Set up minimum two new ad sets with cold audiences. Add relevant exclusions to prevent overlap. Add UTM parameters for each creative so we can track performance in Google Analytics. Target only these countries https://prnt.sc/td91xn Test 10 new texts. Test dynamic ads. Test new video and image ads. Daily budgeting. Weekly reporting.

What was the team composition?

I've worked with both the Audit team and now the technical team who are actioning the suggested plan. All are very competent and great to communicate with.

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

In just two weeks of testing, our lead quality has increased significantly.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Very clear, and the communication of work being completed was very clear. It's nice to know whats going on and not have to question what they are doing or when things are going to be done.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The thought that goes into the strategy. I like the "science" of it. They have a very thorough process for understanding the objectives and testing what will work and what will not. I've never been asked "What do you think we should do next" which is what I want, as I'm not the expert. I like being told what we should be doing and how we are going to test it. This team does this very well.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Nothing I can note currently.

My name is Jack the owner of Preface Products Ltt our company is based in Ireland and we run an number of ecommerce brands.

For what projects/services did your company hire UAWC Agency?

We were looking to bring in some outside help to help increase revenue through digital advertising. After speaking with a large number of agencies we came across UAWC and immediately knew they would be the best agency for us. From there they took over all advertising for us and quickly expanded from facebook to google, snapchat, pinterest and more.

What were your goals for this project?

We simply wanted to increase sales and brand awareness in the geos that we had already established but we felt like to move to the next level we needed UAWC.

How did you select this vendor?

After chatting with Ivan and his team over a number of video calls we had quickly developed an excellent and transparent relationship. Paired with the results UAWC were already producing for their other clients it was a very easy decision to go with UAWC.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

After we decided to work with UAWC, everything was setup and running within a couple of days. We had a limited ability to scale due to lack of knowledge on platforms like Google. Ivan and his team very quickly set out a road map to start testing alternatives sources of traffic for us.

This gave us much confidence as we had worried about having to spend a lot to find new sales avenues. UAWC quickly found multiple channels of traffic in the space of 2 to 3 weeks and sales took an immediate spike from there and have continued. Working with the team is a pleasurable experience with weekly updates on performance and detailed plans for the coming week.

What was the team composition?

I work the closest with the UAWC team and our web developer who loves working with the UAWC team on a day to day basis.

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

We had started to experience a plateau in sales as we began work with UAWC. As soon as they took over our campaigns the results were astonishing. Monthly revenue has more than doubled with UAWC's help. The progress still continues as we expand to new platforms and introduce new products for UAWC to help us advertise.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The workflow between Preface Products and UAWC was effortless with all deadlines clearly defined and results portrayed with accuracy and professionalism.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The thing I found most impressive about UAWC is their unique attitude. They don't exaggerate or set false intentions on how a project may or may not perform. Despite this they always outperform my expectations.

Paired with this is their innovative style wanted yo constantly test and progress campaigns and expand them into new platforms and geos. Overall its the humble and driven culture in UAWC that has and continues to impress me the most.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Right now I cannot see any areas of improvement for UAWC.

Introduce your business and what you do there. 

I’m head of digital strategy for a digital marketing agency based in Barcelona.

What challenge were you trying to address with UAWC Agency? 

We do a lot of work with partners. We made the decision to hire UAWC Agency to provide our clients with PPC services.

What was the scope of their involvement? 

UAWC Agency provides Google Ads services across search, display, and shopping. They work with 2–3 of our clients at the moment. We have a client whose team of developers was trying to sort out an analytics solution for several months. UAWC Agency now provides Google Analytics services for us as well. 

What is the team composition? 

We work with four people in total. Ivan (CEO, UAWC Agency) is my main point of contact. He and I talk about the optimization of our account from a top-level strategic view. 

How did you come to work with UAWC Agency?

I read a review on Clutch that's helped me find them.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent about £15,000 (approximately $18,000 USD). 

What is the status of this engagement?

We’ve been working together around 4–5 months and the engagement is ongoing.

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

We're so happy with their results. Our clients are in some really competitive niches. We know that our competitors pay around £8 per lead and UAWC Agency gets us leads for £3. That’s outstanding in a highly-competitive industry. 

How did UAWC Agency perform from a project management standpoint? 

They're brilliant. UAWC Agency is very responsive and attentive to detail. I'm quite impatient when it comes to working with contractors. I can see that they're working every day on Google Ads. Changes are being made without me having to chase them, which is so refreshing. If we give them a deadline, they come back on that date with what they said they're going to provide.  

What did you find most impressive about them? 

I was very impressed that Ivan provided a solution for analytics tracking. He had it all sorted it out in two days. The quality of their work—especially compared to firms I've used from the UK—is second to none. 

Are there any areas they could improve? 

No, not at the moment. I'm very happy. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers? 

Just do it.

We are an e-commerce company helping women improve their feminine health. I was responsible for running our PPC campaigns until UAWC took over.

For what projects/services did your company hire UAWC Agency?

We hired UAWC for PPC. When UAWC came on board, our PPC campaigns were a mess. They did a great job cleaning up our account and improving all of our key metrics. Prior to hiring UAWC, we did work with one other PPC freelancer. This was not a great experience and we are very grateful that we found UAWC when we did.

What were your goals for this project?

Lower CPC, increase CTR, target new countries, target new keywords, lower CPA, add negative keywords (prevent your adds from being seen when a certain term is searched), test display ads, launch remarketing, and, of course, increase sales.

How did you select this vendor?

We found UAWC on Upwork after interviewing at least 10 other PPC agencies and freelancers.

Describe the project in detail.

The first job for UAWC was to review and clean up our account. After that, they began adding new keywords and negative keywords. They then created new campaigns and went about testing and optimizing them.

What was the team composition?

We dealt directly with Alexey, who was great throughout the entire process.

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

UAWC helped us improve all our key metrics, we were very happy with their work and will work with them again.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We held weekly calls on Skype and were in daily contact (when needed) via email. Communication was never a problem.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The communication was great, and Alexey took the time to explain to us how and why he was making certain changes. This was very important to us and is something we value very highly when working with any freelancer or agency.

Are there any areas for improvement?

No.

Please describe your company and your position there.

We’re a B2B regulatory library and localization agency that provides legal support and information.

For what projects/services did your company hire UAWC Agency?

We needed help with the management of our Google Ads, Bing Ads, and Yandex.Direct.

What were your goals for this project?

To have higher KPIs in terms of our CTR, while operating at a lower budget.

How did you select this vendor?

We initially found them over Freelancer.com. We looked at their track record of prior projects and reviews of their services and found they have solid experience in the PPC business for Russian and English-speaking markets.

Describe the project in detail.

They began by understanding the specifics of our business, how our client traffic works, and how our search criteria developed. Using this information, they analyzed our search patterns and worked on finding the best optimization strategy for our PPC campaigns.

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

We’ve been using their services for around five years on and off. Their team has improved our search traffic quality, optimized keywords, and utilized the most recent technologies for our platforms.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The workflow is very satisfactory. Their team is quick to respond, with a good understanding of the PPC processes, enabling them to implement the most effective solutions.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They have an effective team with a vast knowledge of PPC strategies. They’re also experienced in SEO, though to a less degree.

Are there any areas for improvement?

They don’t measure everything, in terms of KPIs, CTRs, and numbers in general. That means that we might have great performance indictors but the actual sales might not reflect those. It requires us to have an understanding of PPC processes and to keep an eye at the project at all times.
