Appreciate this. That’s exactly how we see it — not an agency, a growth partnership. No fluff. No protecting feelings. Just truth, execution, and accountability. We only win when our clients win, so honesty isn’t optional — it’s required. Respect you for leaning into the process. — Chris Campbell CEO, Grit & Gains Media

Thank you for the kind words. This is exactly how we approach our work — no fluff, no rebrands for the sake of appearances, just ads, systems, and follow-up that drive revenue. We appreciate the trust and the collaboration. When both sides stay focused on what actually moves the needle, results come quickly. — Chris Campbell CEO, Grit & Gains

I want to address this for anyone reading. Grit & Gains is not a traditional agency. Our process is collaborative, direct, and performance-driven, and we are very transparent about that upfront. We also make it clear early on that our style, expectations, and systems are not a fit for everyone, and that’s okay. Regarding scheduling and communication, our team operates within defined systems and documented processes. When expectations or timelines aren’t aligned, we’d rather identify that early than move forward in a partnership that won’t succeed. This person chose not to proceed before onboarding or execution began, which we respect. No services were rendered beyond initial conversations, and no ongoing engagement took place. We appreciate feedback and continually refine our internal standards, but we also prioritize working with clients who are aligned with our approach, communication style, and operating cadence. — Chris Campbell CEO, Grit & Gains

Luke, thank you for sharing your perspective. I want to clarify a few important points for anyone reading this review so expectations are clear. Grit & Gains is not a “set-it-and-forget-it” ad agency. We operate as a performance-based growth partner, which means we only make money when our clients make money. Because of that, our responsibility is not just to “turn ads on,” but to ensure the offer, funnel, and economics can actually support paid traffic without losing money. In your case: We delivered the funnel We produced ad creative We built campaigns We ran multiple revisions at our own expense We provided extensive strategy and offer optimization support We did all of this without earning any profit on the engagement No ads were launched because launching with the existing offer would have resulted in predictable losses. When that reality surfaced, we communicated clearly that optimization was required before scaling traffic responsibly. That is not deflection, that is fiduciary discipline. Our model does require collaboration. Workshops, approvals, and strategy sessions are not “extra work”; they are part of how we protect client ad spend and avoid reckless launches. When that collaboration does not happen, timelines are affected. That expectation is outlined clearly before onboarding. We understand that not every business owner wants this level of involvement. For those looking for a purely transactional “ads-only” service, we are likely not the right fit, and we are upfront about that. We stand by the work delivered, the integrity of our process, and the professionalism of our team. We wish you success moving forward. — Chris Campbell CEO, Grit & Gains Media

Alan, you were never a client of Grit & Gains Media. You did not purchase a service, receive deliverables, or enter our program. Your interaction was part of our initial screening process, where we assess whether a potential applicant is a good fit for our team and model. We turn down the majority of applicants, often within the first few minutes, when it’s clear there is not alignment in expectations, communication style, or values. In this case, our team determined we were not a fit and chose not to move forward. No services were sold, no payment was taken, and no client relationship existed. We take feedback seriously from actual clients and continuously improve our operations based on real delivery experiences. However, we do not accept or engage in hostile, disrespectful, or confrontational behavior during the screening process, especially toward our team. For transparency: This was not a customer service experience This was not a paid engagement This review does not reflect a client outcome We wish you success elsewhere and stand by our process of working only with people who are aligned with our standards of professionalism, respect, and collaboration. — Chris Campbell CEO, Grit & Gains Media
