What do you like best about Gatsby?

We help fitness trainers pass their certification tests with online study guides and materials available for purchase. Historically, most of our growth has come through SEO, but now that we have thousands of customers, we decided to test out some influencer marketing, specifically more of the micro side / word-of-mouth. We figure that a lot of fitness trainers have high engagement and followers on Instagram, and a lot of trainers follow one another, so we wanted to figure out how to tap into that network. Cert study guides aren’t exactly sexy though, so our customers don’t really think to post about us, but if we can identify which ones are influencers and reach out to them directly to work on a collab, offer them some fitness merch etc, we think it will be a big win-win. We came across Gatsby and realized that’s exactly what they help with! We’re implementing it now, and so far the support and the process are great. I’ll come back and update with some numbers when we have them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Gatsby has been an invaluable tool for our team as we grow our online community. It has consistently helped us achieve our goals, and most recently, Brett played a key role in organizing a highly successful campaign for our new Birkenstock collaboration.

Gatsby helped us leverage our highly engaged IG audience into expanding our SMS subscriber base. The implementation was a fairly low lift and yielded a tangible ROI, highly recommend! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gatsby?

If you don't have an already engaged social audience, you might not be able to enjoy the same success we have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gatsby solving and how is that benefiting you?

We had followers on IG that were not yet subscribers to our SMS list. Gatsby helped us incentivize our existing IG followers to opt-in for SMS marketing messages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Gatsby?

So much can be done quite easily. My last project was easy to build from POC to MVP and scale up to an excellent little app. Integration with GraphQL and so easy to deploy on hostings like netlify, GCP. Without forgetting how quickly our team was able to implement the CI/CD for easy deployments to production. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gatsby?

Lots of errors are not well explained or documented. Also kind of got through a lot of deprecated documentations that makes it hard sometime to implement something. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gatsby solving and how is that benefiting you?

Very quick deployment, nice and easy integration with lots of plugins. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Gatsby?

Gatsby out of the box comes with lots of enhancements like lazyloading, seo efficiency, security enhancement, it is very useful to make PWAs. And as we make static websites using Gatsby we also save on server costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gatsby?

As we build static pages we do not the simple support of all async calls simply and we need to use the react lifecycle methods or functional hooks for such operations.

We also end up having a lot of content in gatsy websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gatsby solving and how is that benefiting you?

Gatsby is solving the problem of Lazyloading the content/images/scripts. It is also very efficient in managing an seo frienly website as we build static pages using gatsby. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Gatsby?

My clients and I both appreciate the fast performance speeds that Gatsby offers. I appreciate the starter options for faster build times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gatsby?

Doesn't work well for e-commerce sites, that I've seen so far. This may have changed with v4? Migrating to v4 was a bit of a nightmare too. I just started from scratch at the end of the day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gatsby solving and how is that benefiting you?

Fast build times, fast site speeds and satisfied customers. Since it's built on React, I like to use the components folder to plug-in parts of a website that I use repeatedly too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Gatsby?

We started using Gatsby really early on in 2017. I think we were the first beverage company using it at the time. But Brett was always cool and made Gatsby seamless to work with from our first day of partnership. We love how it now integrates the Instagram field directly with existing forms on our site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gatsby?

You need existing customers in order to find influencers with Gatsby. It doesn't offer a database of influencers or anything like that. This makes sense but we had just launched our merch store and it took a little while to begin taking advantage of Gatsby's value. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gatsby solving and how is that benefiting you?

Expanding our marketing efforts to digital. We need influencers and this is the least expensive option for finding and engaging influencers that we've found. The fact that they're proud ACE Fans makes it even easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Gatsby?

I love how simple it was to implement Gatsby along with setting up email work flows to analyzing the data on our customers' influence/reach.

Best part is that it integrates with Hubspot so I have the freedom to analyze the data in my existing CRM/System. Beyond this, I love the that we were able to implement this less than a day and integrate with Hubspot within a few minutes.

Lastly, it's great to be able to customize the design of the popups easily with our branding and where it's best fit in our app. The most impactful place where Gatsby has been effective has been during the checkout process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gatsby?

Not being able to direct message these individuals on Instagram directly / setup automations in Instagram to automatically follow your customers. I think that is Instagram's fault though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gatsby solving and how is that benefiting you?

Finding influencers and affiliates - Gatsby eliminated a tremendous amount of costs around finding and recruiting influencers for our brand. Now we just turn our best customers into influencers!

By easily being able to identify and reach out to our customers to become influencers and affiliates, we've now grown our team to over 250. This has driven a few hundred thousand dollars in revenue too! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Gatsby?

All their integrations. Gatsby is awesome at telling us which of our ecommerce customers are influencers or micro-influencers and then syncs that data back to our central repository in Klaviyo.

I get pitched on new apps and tools all the time, but Gatsby stands above the pack. Brett, their ceo is amazing. Probably the best guy I've met in the app space. He is awesome and will get anything done you guys work on together! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gatsby?

Since we’re such a big company, we get a ton of influencers and could use more filtering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gatsby solving and how is that benefiting you?

Finding more people like our top influencers. For example, we just ran a campaign in Feb for a specific shoe, and used the Gatsby / Klaviyo combined data to see which customers bought that heel & had between 5,000-20,000 followers. We had a list of perfect influencers to reach out to within minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Gatsby?

Identifying certain keywords in the bio's of users was super helpful in identifying candidates for partner/affiliate programs. Gatsby's search allowed us to do this in a fraction of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gatsby?

We can't do keyword search in the web browser yet, requires export to csv. Would be great to just have that in the dashboard! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Gatsby:

The team at Gatsby is super helpful pre and post-implementation! If you're new to influencer marketing, they can give a crash course on how it all works! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gatsby solving and how is that benefiting you?

Normally this would take our social team hours to dig through profiles on Instagram searching for these kinds of people. Being able to search our actual users by Instagram profile and with keywords makes it easy for us to find the right people we can collaborate with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Gatsby?

As a service provider, we strive to find the best Shopify partners to include in our overall tech stack. Gatsby made it really easy for us to add influencer marketing to our offering, basically overnight. The setup is easy, we have it down to maybe 30 minutes per client, especially since it just integrates with the other tools we already manage for our clients, like Klaviyo, Refersion, and Shopify Plus. I also really like their automated email outreach feature - once we set a client up, everything goes on auto-pilot. Gatsby identifies the influential consumers, sends them our pre-written customized collab offer, and syncs the insights back with Klaviyo for targeted segments & email drips for when we need to engage the influencers for one-off campaigns. Also, their customer support is great! Really hands on helping us roll Gatsby out to our clients with unique 1-pagers, webinars, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gatsby?

Right now we’re using a 3rd party survey tool and/or a manual process to further vet the influencers and gather more info. Would be great if Gatsby had this system built in directly or other ways to vet influencers programmatically for authenticity and engagement. Also would love to see insights on the influencer posts or someway to track that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gatsby solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our clients were asking for influencer and micro-influencer marketing but most of the tools we evaluated required a lot of hands on and ongoing management, were too expensive, or didn’t have the integrations we needed to tie everything together. We also have clients that sell products that can't be marketed with paid ads so engaging with influencers/micro-influencers is a powerful way to promote these brands & products.

Gatsby really partnered with us to find a solution that helps us and our clients leverage influencer marketing in a scalable way. For example, we have clients that capture & engage 3-10 micro-influencers every day through Gatsby, and it just happens automatically. Many of the influencers go on and post, but that’s where we need the additional automated tracking, but I hear it may be coming out from them soon..! :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
