Overall, Nuanced Media's transparency in sharing their reports and proficiency stands out. While the collaboration has scaled down, the team continues to deliver quality results and quick responses to questions. The client's orders have grown every month since their partnership with The Nuanced Media team began. They advised changing the vendor account to a seller's account, uploaded major product lines, and now run PPC and DSP campaigns. The Nuanced Media team smoothed an Amazon account for a pump manufacturer.
