Who actually does the work?
The biggest hidden risk in any agency or tool is the gap between what is promised and who actually does the work. Quartile runs accounts through its software plus a dedicated managed account team. We built Shaazford to close that gap: the senior strategist you meet runs your account, backed by specialists in PPC, SEO, design, and catalog, with founder access on your strategy calls.
We lead with revenue, not dashboards.
Across our partners we have managed more than $50M in client revenue, with an average of 180% growth in the first six months after we rebuild listings, restructure ad strategy around profit instead of ACOS, and add the channels that fit each brand. Figures reflect results managed by our founders and team. Client names kept private.
