We're a young agency. Our first verified client reviews will live at rate.workwithreal.com once the first 90-day cycles close. Until then, here is what we hold ourselves to, and the public research it's built on.
A note on trust
Most agency websites lead with five-star testimonial walls. Some are real. Many are bought, prompted, or assembled before the work was finished. We'd rather not play that game while we're still earning the right to a wall of our own.
What follows are the standards we measure ourselves against, the public research our methodology is built on, and the questions we get asked most often. When the first 90-day client cycles complete, the first reviews land here. Until then, you can evaluate us by what we choose to be accountable to.
01 / Industry numbers
The famous "$38 back for every $1" comes from a self-reported survey of around 400 marketers, not from audited books, so we treat it as an argument for the channel and never as a promise. Which numbers hold up and which do not is documented on our statistics page. What we are accountable to is your own baseline: if a retention engagement isn't moving it inside ninety days, we keep working at no additional cost.
02 / Trust research
Baymard Institute's DTC research finds that 62% of users research a brand themselves and look for third-party proof before buying from a name they don't know. We design every post-purchase touchpoint to give the brand more of that proof, not extract another sale.
03 / Methodology
The inference layer behind our flows applies established work in behavioral economics, RFM segmentation, and chronotype research. Not a black box marketed as "AI."
We're a young agency and are early in publishing client reviews. Verified reviews will live on a dedicated subdomain (rate.workwithreal.com) once our first 90-day client cycles complete. Until then, this page documents the standards we hold ourselves to.
A 90-day measurable-results guarantee. If we don't deliver measurable improvements within ninety days, we continue working at no additional cost until the agreed metrics move.
Four primary outcomes: repeat purchase rate, revenue per recipient, customer lifetime value lift, and post-purchase support ticket volume. We report open rates, but we don't optimise against them. They're a directional signal, not a goal. Background on customer lifetime value.
Platform-agnostic. Klaviyo, Mailchimp, Customer.io, Postscript, similar. The behavioural inference layer sits on top of whichever tool a client already uses. No forced migration, no vendor lock-in.
Grevenbroich, Germany. We work with DTC brands across the EU, UK, and US, serving clients in English and German.
