Function Growth Supercharges D2C Marketing with AI-Powered Analytics

Function Growth, a leading growth accelerator for D2C brands, was already data-literate and analytics-driven. Their sophisticated marketing approach delivered results for clients, but as their reputation grew, so did their challenges. 

A critical bottleneck was identified soon: their analytics depended entirely on manual human labor.

Manual analytics couldn't keep pace with client demands

The data-driven reputation of Function Growth attracted clients who entrusted significant ad budgets to their management. However, the team hit the inherent limitations of human-led statistical analysis. Despite operating at maximum efficiency, Director of Analytics Adam Orris found himself spending hours each week generating reports—facing both time constraints and the inherent limitations of human analysis.

With all marketing analytics funneling through a single professional, the company struggled with:

• Hours consumed each week generating client marketing reports
• Difficulty tracking crucial performance metrics (CPC, CTR, ROAS, Thumbstomp rate, etc.)
• High risk of overlooking valuable performance insights in complex data

From manual labor to automated AI-powered multi-platform analytics

Improvado addressed Function Growth's challenges by creating a comprehensive solution that combined robust data integration with advanced AI capabilities.

The foundation of the solution established centralized and normalized marketing data from numerous ad platforms and accounts, automated data collection that previously required manual extraction, and generated performance metrics automatically across all platforms and clients.

Building on this integrated data foundation, Improvado's AI capabilities took Function Growth's analytics to the next level. The team began receiving AI-driven marketing reports delivered directly to their inbox through Insight Pulse, which let them:

• Discover performance trends through both textual descriptions and intuitive visualizations;
• Get strategic recommendations for budget allocation and campaign optimization based on their performance.

A 30% boost in marketing team productivity

With Improvado, Function Growth transformed its analytics process from a time-consuming chore into a strategic advantage. The immediate impact was tangible: 6 hours saved weekly on manual reporting tasks.

This consistent time savings translated directly to a 30% increase in marketing team productivity. Rather than wrestling with spreadsheets, the team now focuses on what matters: making data-driven decisions that improve campaign performance.

AI analytics co-pilot helps extract maximum value from marketing data

The impact extends beyond just saved time. The team can now quickly identify which campaigns deserve more investment and which need adjustment, thanks to instant insights and intuitive visualizations that highlight opportunities that might otherwise remain hidden in the data.

The Insight Pulse AI-driven functionality allowed for streamlined client reporting and proactive responses to emerging trends. By automatically identifying optimization opportunities that might otherwise go unnoticed, the AI partnership transformed raw data into a strategic advantage for Function Growth's existing and future clients.
