The Challenge

Waggle, a pet tech company with 10,000+ customers and a product line spanning Pet Monitors, Smart Feeders, and WaggleCam, was bleeding budget and losing leads. For a brand with 10M+ social followers and proven product-market fit, the numbers weren't adding up.

The challenge was to -

  • Diagnose 50+ Meta campaigns with unclear performance and budget bleeding into low-ROI segments
  • Identify onboarding friction causing drop-offs between lead capture and hardware conversion
  • Clarify positioning between hardware and subscription offerings across two customer segments
  • Optimize email marketing with nurture sequences underperforming industry benchmarks
  • Deliver actionable fixes, not just audit reports, to stop the leaks immediately

Our Approach

Surgical diagnostics, customer journey mapping, and performance benchmarking, designing every deliverable to include implementation assets, not just recommendations. We had to think beyond just auditing. It was about fixing the infrastructure, plugging performance leaks bleeding budget and conversions before scaling spend.
