Real results for data-driven teams

“We operate in HubSpot, but our revenue is in Stripe. We use a platform on top of that called ChartMogul. Then there are the ad platforms, and it’s all intertwined.

‍

The dashboard is really helpful because Onward and the team have made it the single source of truth.”

‍

“We wanted to test Facebook and Instagram, in the early days Onward was scrappy and helped us get some tests out there and use free tools to help get tests out for the graphics.

‍

We weren’t paying them directly for graphic design services, it was included because their incentives were aligned with ours."

“Onward is fast, and iterative, and experimental, and intelligent, and having been a founder and CEO in the venture-backed tech world, these are people I would hire. These are people I would want as a part of my culture.”

“It feels very much like an extension of our team. Very authentic, very casual, very focused on the data and the results, but also not taking themselves too seriously or us too seriously, which is a good match with our culture.”

"When you hire Onward you get expertise, you get project management, you get execution and media buying, you get engineer, you get a small scrappy team of digital marketers."

‍

"Previous to Onward, we tried a bunch of different agencies... but I would go back to my tried and true, which was a single Google sheet with 100 tabs... but in this world it was, what if I saw this customer data, combine with this transactional data, combine with this marketing data."

“Some of the previous agencies we worked with, we didn't have any real time insight. We had some of our own internal dashboards, but it was mostly just a slideshow that they would walk us through once a week. The dashboard is really helpful because Onward and their team have made that the single source of truth, and it can pull from all the different metrics as needed.”

"When you hire Onward you get expertise, you get project management, you get execution and media buying, you get engineer, you get a small scrappy team of digital marketers."

"Media agencies, that world is broken... So a media agency they charge you on X percent based on how much they spend... you’re paying these gigantic monthly fees and you’re rewarding them for essentially turning up the volume and performing the same activities."

‍

“Our team used to juggle multiple tools, dashboards, and reports. Now, with Onward, our internal reports and meetings are built with logic from their dashboards, simplifying everything and letting us go way deeper.”

"John, our CEO uses this analogy all the time, like we're lighting $100 bills on a fire to see in front of us in a cave. And then when it burns out, we just light another one."

"A lot of challenges in marketing stem from attribution, what are you giving credit to what source.  What I found working with Onward is not only is the strategy and visualization accurate, but the data science behind bringing the data to those visualizations is super reliable."
