Fraudulent service, evidence proves it...
The Story
On 10/11/22 we ordered:
1. 48 million emails would be sent 7 times (336,000,000 total emails sent)
2. Our target audience (Men, ages 31-64, interested in lawn & garden, in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand).
3. Min. 40,000 Click Guaranteed per 8 million x 6 campaigns = 240,000 Clicks Guaranteed.
4. Campaign date: 10/19-11/01/22. The campaign was to be completed in total over these 14 days.
Conclusion & Desired Resolution
The drastic underperformance of the campaign (the portion of clicks that we did receive), combined with the physical evidence presented on a thumb drive, along with the Law of Big Numbers (336,000,000 sent emails), suggests that the clicks received were fraudulent in some way. It is not our intent to speculate, nor is it constructive to do so. But it is beyond all probability and rationale to believe that a legitimate, targeted email solo ad campaign, carried out by “20-year professionals,” would yield no conversions (0% conversion rate).
Our final conversion rate numbers were 0 conversions /53,619 clicks (based on Cutt.ly).
We did not receive 85%+ of the clicks promised (40,000 Click Guaranteed per 8 million x 6 campaigns = 240,000 Clicks Guaranteed).
Q.A.M. refused our email requests to provide evidence that their targeting was accurate and real. But they did prove that their email lists were inaccurate (not targeted).
Lastly, there is no evidence, outside of Cutt.ly statistics which have been proven to be inaccurate, that the few clicks received were legitimate (clicks coming from solo ads them or their chosen source created). But there is a very strong suggestion that these few clicks received were not quality or carried out by real human beings fitting our demographics & interests. The evidence strongly suggests as much.
Nothing we received from “Quality Ads Marketing” was “quality.”
Our request is for a full refund of $3,193.00.
