Marketing because everyone else is doing it just burns money

Plenty of companies sell tactics. Before we execute anything, we decide what should be executed.

The usual way: Buys clicks with discounts and salesy ad creative

The Dongle Media Lab way: Diagnoses what's wrong first, with strategy and numbers

The usual way: Ignores how the customer journey has changed and just pushes more impressions

The Dongle Media Lab way: Redesigns the customer journey, starting with content, reviews, and influencers

The usual way: Burns budget on media with no strategy

The Dongle Media Lab way: Executes with branding and storyline at the center

The usual way: Repeats the same playbook no matter who runs it

The Dongle Media Lab way: Assigns each area to a top specialist in that field

We start with your real problem, not a marketing method

We start by listening: what isn't selling, and where things are stuck. Marketing drawn up on theory in an office rarely holds up in the field, so we build our answers from what we've tested by selling ourselves.

Diagnosis first

Before doing anything, we pin down the problem with strategy and numbers.

Specialist-led

Each area is handled by a top specialist in that field. No vague jack-of-all-trades.

Through to execution

From branding to content and commerce, we stay with you until the results come in.

You've tried agency after agency. Why is nothing changing?

We find where things are stuck, bring in specialists who are genuinely good at that area, and get everyone moving with one message.

  1. AwarenessInterestConversionStuckRepurchase

    Step 1

    Diagnosis

    Is it awareness, persuasion, conversion, or repurchase? The fix depends entirely on where things are stuck, so we pinpoint that spot first with strategy and numbers.

  2. Step 2

    Match

    From vetted specialists we've worked with before, we bring in the one who fits the problem. Size and fame aren't the criteria.

  3. Step 3

    Align

    We bring the specialists together so they work toward one brand message and one goal. Not scattered efforts, but one direction.

If you don't know where to start, that's a sign you need a diagnosis.

Start with what you need now

You can start with just one area. When you expand the scope, you continue with a team that already knows your brand and numbers, so there's no need to explain everything again.

From inquiry to execution, in five steps

At each step, we tell you upfront what we'll deliver and what we need from you. Details are adjusted together based on scope.

  1. Step 1. Request a free diagnosis

    Tell us about your situation and what you need using the form below. We'll review it and get back to you.

  2. Step 2. Diagnosis · Proposal

    We review your current channels and materials, then send a proposal covering scope, timeline, and cost.

  3. Step 3. Contract

    We refine the proposal together and finalize the contract and deliverable standards.

  4. Step 4. Workspace setup

    We give you a client account. Log in and your projects and schedule are ready.

  5. Step 5. Execution · Weekly reports

    Work runs on a kanban board, and each week a report records what worked.

Hand it off,
stay in the loop

What makes outsourcing frustrating is usually the process, not the output. That's why we built the system first: you shouldn't have to ask how things are going.

  • See progress as it happens

    Once the contract is signed, you get your own account. Log in anytime to see where things stand, no status request needed.

  • See the current stage on a kanban board

    With columns for planning, production, review, and publishing, where a card sits tells you how far along it is.

  • Video starts with a shot-by-shot plan

    Before filming, we give you a plan with narration, captions, and direction laid out shot by shot, so finished videos rarely need to be remade from scratch.

  • Weekly reports keep a record

    What we tried this week, what worked, and what to change next week all build up as a record.

Frequently asked questions

These are the questions first-time clients ask most. If you have others, include them in your free diagnosis request.

What kind of company is Dongle Media Lab?
We're a marketing partner that uses strategy and numbers to diagnose what's wrong before you spend more on ads, then works with experts in that area to make your brand actually sell. We take branding, strategy, development, performance, content, commerce, and creator work all the way through execution.
What does the free diagnosis involve?
We find where your purchase journey (awareness, interest, conversion, repeat purchase) is getting stuck. Once you submit a request, we review your current channels and materials, then send a proposal covering scope, timeline, and cost. The consultation and diagnosis are free.
Can we hire you for just one area?
Yes, you can hire us for just one area. When you expand the scope later, you continue with a team that already knows your brand and numbers, so there's no need to explain everything from scratch.
What are the steps?
There are five steps: free diagnosis request, diagnosis and proposal, contract, client workspace setup, and execution with weekly reports.
How do I check on progress?
After you sign, we give you your own workspace account. You can see the current stage on a kanban board (planning, production, review, publishing), and each weekly report shows what we tried and what worked.
