Real results for data-driven teams

“Working with Onward has been a game changer. They took messy, inconsistent data and turned it into actionable insights our leadership can use immediately — changing how we operate and how we communicate value to customers.”

"We were able to aggregate the data to more clearly see in buckets which products and offers were working and really help the client iterate on growth strategy a lot faster than they had done before. We sped up execution, testing and learning, more quickly able stop what wasn't working and accelerate spend in areas that had opportunities for the client."

"Onward has expertise understanding what the big players do at scale, then being able to break those same concepts and problems down, and model it out from a data perspective."

"Part of what Onward does in a really great way is, I can outsource this problem to Jerry and the Onward team and have a high degree of trust that we can give each other good feeback... it is an extension of my team, and they are very intergrated into the business."

"I'm up at 1:30 in the mroning trying to get answers on data, and in my Slack are 2-3 people from Onward... And they're matching that hustle... I've never had that in a data partner."

"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."

‍

"One thing that I really like is we have a shared Slack channel... and we identify new opportunities to iterate on the dashboard, and they become available really quickly."

"Onward turns complex, scattered data into clear actions and insights that reshape how we run the business and prove value to our customers."

“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."

"So again, they just feel like an extension of the team, just like you would pay a person or a group of people to, to do the work.

‍

And everyone is sort of aligned around wanting to achieve the outcomes."

“Onward, because they are sophisticated with data, were able to track all the events in our funnel.”

"If I got my way at the beginning, I would have wanted them to dive into performance marketing initiatives...

‍

...but we're not in a world where we're going to charge you on X percent of ad spend, we're just going to find ways to spend more dollars. Beginning the relationship there... opened up this space of trust."
