NorthBridge Capital

Investment advisory firm · 42 employees · 90-day engagement

NorthBridge had no ICP clarity, were spending $28K/month on paid media with zero traceable attribution, and their sales team was chasing cold leads from a spreadsheet with no CRM discipline. Pipeline was entirely opaque. Revenue growth had stalled at 6% YoY for two consecutive years despite increasing ad spend.

Meridian Auto Group

Multi-franchise dealership group · 180 employees · 6-month engagement

Seven dealership locations, each running independent marketing budgets with five different freelancers and no shared data infrastructure. Cost-per-lead on Google and Meta had risen 60% over 18 months. Leadership had no real-time visibility into which location, channel or vehicle segment was generating the best ROI. Revenue growth had plateaued for three quarters.

"We went from seven marketing black boxes to one clear system. Our cost per sold unit dropped by more than a third and we finally understand where our best customers come from. The visibility alone changed how we manage this business."

Education & Training · Ontario, Canada

Summit Education Partners

Professional certification provider · 28 employees · 4-month engagement

Summit was almost entirely referral-dependent with no structured digital presence, no nurture system and no ability to predict revenue month-to-month. Enrollment cycles were long, erratic and deeply dependent on two salespeople. Leadership wanted to scale without proportionally scaling headcount — but had no infrastructure to support that goal.

"We finally have a predictable enrollment pipeline. The systems Resonant built mean we're not dependent on referrals or the heroics of individual people anymore. For the first time, I can actually forecast next quarter."

Cascade D2C Brands

Direct-to-consumer outdoor lifestyle brand · 55 employees · 5-month engagement

Rising customer acquisition costs driven by platform CPMs increasing 60% YoY, poor customer retention (average LTV of just 1.4 purchases), no lifecycle marketing to speak of and a Klaviyo account that was essentially sending one monthly newsletter. Revenue was growing but margins were being destroyed by acquisition spend. The business was scaling without becoming more profitable.

Email Revenue
"Our email channel went from an afterthought to our highest-margin revenue stream. The team at Resonant approached retention like engineers, not marketers. That framing changed everything about how we thought about growth."
