FAQ

Common questions.

What's your gaming track record?

Cross-industry: Discord, Twitch, Owner.com, Rhoback. The 48-hour audit is built from your live data — within two days you'll know whether what we shipped for them maps to your stack.

What's the minimum engagement size?

Free 48-hour audit to start. From there, project work is fixed-fee against a scoped output (4–8 weeks typically) and ongoing programs run as monthly retainers. No long-term contracts.

What platforms do you work in for gaming?

Whatever your team already uses. We're certified on Klaviyo, Braze, Iterable, HubSpot, Customer.io, Postscript, Attentive, Salesforce Marketing Cloud — plus the ad, analytics, and data-warehouse stack underneath.

How is BRCG different from a traditional agency?

The same senior strategist who scopes your engagement ships the work. No handoff to a junior team, no offshore layers, no decks substituting for deliverables. Everything lands in your ESP, your ad accounts, your project board.

How fast can we see results?

48-hour audit, then build starts week 2 and the first live program is in market by week 4. No quarterly timelines — every week ships something measurable.

In their words

What the teams say.

BRCG led our SendGrid → Braze migration four years ago and they've been our CRM team ever since — campaign ops, experimentation, rebrands, integration planning. Braze is now a real DAU lever for the product, not just transactional email.
