How many teammates from UM | Shopify Marketing Agency 🛍️ were assigned to this project?

2-5 Employees

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

UM is managing our performance and retention marketing in a structured way.

They handle Meta Ads and Google Ads completely. They rebuilt our campaign structure, separated cold traffic and retargeting, tested many creatives, and optimized budgets based on real data. They focus not only on revenue, but also on profitability, which for me is very important.

They also manage our email marketing. They rebuilt and optimized key automatic flows like cart abandonment, checkout abandonment, and popup flows. They improved design, structure, and rules so emails convert better.

We have regular strategy calls where we review numbers and plan next steps. It is ongoing work, not just launching campaigns and leaving them.

Key results and deliverables:

– Scaled revenue to $90K+ per month
– Generated over $76K in one month with stable ROAS
– Built structured Meta and Google Ads systems
– Improved email automation performance and increased flow-driven orders
– Continuous creative testing and performance optimization
– Monthly reporting and clear performance tracking

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The most important measurable outcome for me was revenue growth with controlled ad spend.

We were able to scale to $90K+ per month while keeping ROAS at a healthy level. In one of the months, we generated over $76K with stable performance, not random spikes.

Another measurable success was more consistent results month to month. Before, we had very unstable numbers. Now performance is more predictable.

Email automation also improved. A higher percentage of orders started coming from flows like cart and checkout abandonment, which means the system works better, not only ads.

For me, success is not just revenue, but stability and profitability. And we clearly moved in that direction.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Project management is good and organized.

We have regular calls where we review performance and next steps. They send reports and explain numbers clearly. If something is not working, we discuss and adjust fast.

Most deliverables were on time. When there was any delay, they communicated in advance. For me, communication is very important, and they were always responsive.

If I had questions or concerns, especially about budget or profitability, they listened and tried to find solutions. Sometimes we had difficult conversations about numbers, but they were open and transparent.

Overall, I felt they were involved in the business, not just doing tasks.

What was your primary form of communication with UM | Shopify Marketing Agency 🛍️?

Virtual Meeting

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

What I found most impressive is that they really care about profitability, not only revenue.

Many agencies just try to push ad spend higher. With UM, we always discussed margin, cash flow, and risk. For me, this was important because I did not want to grow and lose money at the same time.

Also, they think long term. It is not only about one good month. They try to build a system that can work consistently.

Another thing is communication. Sometimes I can be direct and emotional about numbers, but they stayed calm and focused on data. That helped me trust them more.

Are there any areas for improvement or something UM | Shopify Marketing Agency 🛍️ could have done differently?

Honestly, in the beginning I think we could have aligned expectations even more clearly around budget and speed of scaling.

Sometimes I wanted faster results, but scaling needs structure and testing. Maybe if we had spent more time in the first weeks explaining the roadmap in even more detail, it would reduce pressure later.

But overall, when something was not clear, we talked and fixed it. I did not feel ignored or left alone with problems.

For me, improvement is always possible in any partnership, but I cannot say there was a major issue.
