We provide digital media services to acquire customers and contact center service to ensure conversion and delivery. LQ works with large enterprises like USAA, McAfee, The Home Depot, Penny Mac and other leading B2C brands to basically run the entire end-to-end process of ‘manufacturing’ a new customer.
Why LQ is outstanding at what it does: the company thinks less like marketers and more like economists, driving hard against unit economics and aligning itself with pay for performance models. It’s also sits on a trove of data, which helps guide better business decisions, benchmarks performance and refines lifetime value (LTV) models.

Clients are addicted to performance marketing. Challenge is that many brands are harvesting the bottom of the funnel demand without making the right investments into building future demand. They haven’t built the right strategy to harness Facebook, or they have struggled with the effectiveness of display and attribution is messy. As a result, a number of brands are either dabbling or cutting back investment.
LQ believes the full digital economist strategy requires a complete top to bottom of the funnel strategy, including attracting attention and consideration, so that this demand can be captured through more direct response channels. In addition, if smart marketers are looking for the best CAC/LTV, they need to be exploring the effects between Facebook and Google, and how incremental spend in one affects the other.
