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

Disruptive supported us with reporting, Google Ads optimization, campaign creation, HubSpot scripting, rebranding, our brand guide, LinkedIn campaign setup, and more. They were truly a full-spectrum partner!

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The measurable outcomes were clear: with their ad optimizations, we saw impressions rise, click-through rates improve, and overall costs trend downward—acknowledging some fluctuations month-to-month. Beyond the metrics, the communication was top-notch. As a small marketing team, having access to their resources felt like we had expanded our own team—making a huge difference to our success.

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

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Christine from Disruptive, and the experience was outstanding. While the entire Disruptive team—account managers, designers, developers—delivered truly personalized, high-value work, Christine was the MVP. Her expertise and attention to detail were unmatched. She made me feel completely confident, going beyond the extra mile to ensure we succeeded. I felt fortunate to work with her.

In fact, every interaction with Disruptive reflected that same quality. I explored many agencies, and Disruptive delivered really good quality at a really good price. As a full-service agency, they can handle just about anything—and you can trust them every step of the way.

What was your primary form of communication with Disruptive Advertising?

• In-Person Meeting

• Email or Messaging App

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

What impressed me most about Disruptive Advertising was the combination of deep expertise and genuine partnership. Christine and the team didn't just offer services; they became an extension of our small marketing group. Their personalized approach—no cookie-cutter solutions—and the sheer breadth of resources they made available made us feel we had a powerhouse behind us. They excel in both quality and care, and that balance is rare.

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

One area of improvement might be creating a standardized, long-term performance tracking format—something month-to-month that shows key metrics like impressions, CTR, and costs. Having a clear pattern over time might help teams—especially those less experienced—digest performance at a glance. Even a log correlating major actions to results would help tie efforts to outcomes. That would make future success even clearer for us.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the director of marketing at PrintGlobe, a printing and promotional products company. We serve businesses, universities, non-profits, and government entities across the US.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Disruptive Advertising?

We needed a data-first approach as major PPC changes in 2025 left us struggling with reporting and tracking. We needed to resolve gaps in our conversion tracking since a majority of our sales convert offline. We also needed an experienced team to stay on top of the ever-changing landscape of Google Ads and Bing Ads.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Disruptive Advertising has implemented an offline lead tracking system that allows us to accurately measure offline sales and eliminate spam and non-target B2C leads from our reporting. This has had the greatest impact on improving performance. They also manage and continuously optimize our PPC accounts

What is the team composition?

We’ve worked with 2–5 teammates from Disruptive Advertising.

How did you come to work with Disruptive Advertising?

We found them through an online search and Clutch. We chose them over other options because of their high ratings and strengths in the data-first strategy.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in September 2025, and the engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Disruptive Advertising has quickly solved our issues, and the clarity in our data has been a game-changer. We’ve seen YOY performance improvement across the board on all PPC campaigns. We’re converting more efficiently and reaching better audiences than in previous years. For example, we’ve seen a 42% increase in new sales YOY (2026 YTD vs. the same period in 2025) and a 36% improvement in new ROAS.

How did Disruptive Advertising perform from a project management standpoint?

Disruptive Advertising’s project management is excellent and dependable. We communicate via virtual meetings and emails.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Disruptive Advertising’s proactive approach is impressive, and they don’t cherry-pick results to share.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, there aren’t any.

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

Disruptive is handling our digital advertising, primarily through Google PPC. Key deliverables are 5-10 high quality, buyer leads for financial planning services. Goal is to be below a specified dollar threshold for CPL, CPC, and CPM. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

So far, they're exceeding expectations in terms of lead flow and CPL. They've been extremely communicative every step of the way, including identifying new keywords and ad copy ideas that have resulted in several new clients. 

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

Everything has been on time, meetings are prompt, and they respond within 2-3 hours to all requests. 

What was your primary form of communication with Disruptive Advertising?

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

The most impressive thing so far has been the communication and thoroughness. They've identified several areas of ours that could be improved, along with identifying several ideas that they felt wouldn't work with suggestions for better alternatives.

Can't think of any so far.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Disruptive Advertising?

We needed help with our Meta and Google ads strategy and management.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Disruptive Advertising helped us with our Meta and Google PPC ads strategy. Their work included ad creative and lifecycle management, focusing on strategy, visuals, and copy. The project had three phases: correcting our prior agency's mess, developing our Meta and Google PPC ad strategy and executing it, and measuring, monitoring, testing, and refining the strategy.

What is the team composition?

We worked with 5–6 teammates from Disruptive Advertising.

How did you come to work with Disruptive Advertising?

We found them through Clutch. We chose them because they demonstrated a solid understanding of Meta and Google ads strategy and management. We had been working with another agency that was sorely deficient in these areas, and Disruptive Advertising was able to look under the hood, identify our issues, and make recommendations for both a rapid fix and a longer-term strategic plan. They were also attentive and took the time to understand our hyper-niche business.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in January 2025. The project just ended in September 2025, but only because our market is experiencing a level 10 disruption. Our market's budgets are being cut, so while Disruptive Advertising's work was outstanding, it was like pushing a rock up a hill. All the qualified leads in the world didn't make a difference if they didn't have the budget to purchase our programs. We paused the project for the moment, but we'll resume working with Disruptive Advertising when the market opens up.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Disruptive Advertising's work resulted in an increased qualified lead volume and more demos with sales teams. They lowered our CPL by 38%. We used to spend 3–4 times as much to produce much worse results. This savings allowed us to continue marketing in a down market for us. Disruptive Advertising literally maximized our limited ad spend. Our reps even commented on the significant improvement in lead quality.

How did Disruptive Advertising perform from a project management standpoint?

Disruptive Advertising always delivered on time. They were attentive and professional. We communicated via email and biweekly status Zoom calls.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Disruptive Advertising's understanding of Meta and Google strategy was impressive.

Are there any areas they could improve?

There's nothing they could have done better or differently.

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

We are measuring everything using our existing CRM Platform as well as shared assets/resources via Google Drive. Working with the Disruptive team, we've created a fully integrated digital marketing strategy that help generate high quality leads through PPC, paid ads, social media marketing, and more. Leads can call, chat, or fill out our landing page contact form where our intake staff contacts the lead and onboards them. We measure each lead through our CRM which is filtered back into our paid marketing efforts to further increase the overall quality of leads. As google (and other platforms) continue to change, Disruptive helps us remain visible to our clients while maximizing our conversions. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Through our own CRM measurements, we could easily see an increase in overall lead quantity as well as quality while our cost per lead continues to fall. Some months are better than others but we have watched an overall trending increase year over year. 

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

I have a WONDERFUL relationship with my project manager at Disruptive. Jonni has helped shape our overall digital marketing strategy and is always quick to provide additional opportunities for growth or creative ideas to maximize existing efforts. She is quick to respond to any questions, is always prepared on our marketing calls, and truly cares about the success of our firm. It's been an absolute pleasure to work with her and the rest of the Disruptive team. They are genuinely authentic without the BS of "telling us what we want to hear" or trying to get us to spend more. 

What was your primary form of communication with Disruptive Advertising?

Virtual Meeting

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

While we've collaborated with many companies offering similar services, Disruptive truly stands out. They consistently deliver on the results that others only promise. Their team is not only knowledgeable and professional but also feels like an extension of our own marketing department. I've built genuine personal relationships with everyone at Disruptive; they genuinely care about our firm's overall well-being—from our staff to my personal well-being—not just the numbers, which is incredibly rare and valued. 

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

Naturally, as the marketing landscape changes, so do companies that provide marketing services. Disruptive continues to adapt their service offering and manage staff changes in an effort to provide the best level of service. However, from a customer point-of-view, this leads to unwanted changes in staff and a period of time while new staff gets familiar with our account. Thankfully, our account exec is still with us and minimizes this impact. I don't see anyway around this but is the only improvement I can think of.

The primary objective was to take an existing set of campaigns on google ads and increase profitability / reduce marketing cost. Secondarily we wanted to start advertising many new brands that were not already being advertised.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Increased ROAS.

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

The project was managed by a communicative project manager; however, very little actual work was done. The proof was in the changelog, where almost no changes were made by their team.

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

High ratings on clutch.co and they also told us they managed a similar large company in a different country but we now suspect this was misleading if not outright lying.

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

Where do I begin. In short, Disruptive did not deliver. I suspect most of their high ratings are for small companies with small budgets because they went backward with our 6 figure marketing budget and really had no idea how to produce positive results. Our marketing costs went up, not down.

We kept telling them we wanted to expand our marketing to new brands that we brought on, but they never did until the very end, launching a campaign that burned money with no results. We invested hundreds of thousands into new brands and barely sold them because they simply refused to start new campaigns. That inventory sat collecting dust.

To add insult to injury, after they failed to deliver the project, they charged us exorbitant termination fees even without doing any work. For example, we were charged for August, and they literally didn't even have access to our system anymore. They did NOTHING and charged us 5 figure termination fees.

The most concerning was after removing them, we immediately improved by doing it in-house within a week and have continually improved every week thereafter. Our revenues are way up, our costs are down, and we're selling new brands.

We have not looked back. I do not recommend Disruptive if you have 6 figure budgets; they will burn money.

Company Responses

The vendor responded on October 3, 2024.

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback. While it’s unfortunate that things didn’t go as expected, we need to follow our processes, especially with on and off-boarding clients as that allows us to provide the best offer to new and existing clients. That said, we understand that not every partnership works out.

We’re sorry to hear that you feel there was a disconnect, especially around the campaign execution and billing, but we followed the terms of the agreement, and any fees charged were in line with that. We tried to be as clear as possible in both the onboarding and off-boarding process around this. We’d be happy to review the specifics if needed.
