The DataSauce team is buzzing to announce that we’ve achieved Google Premier Partner status, awarded to the top 3 per cent of agencies in each participating country.
As part of the new Google Partners program, Google recognised top-performing digital marketing partners across the globe by awarding this status.
We’re especially chuffed as the 2022 program requirements grew significantly from previous years; assessed across ad performance, ad spend, and Google advertising certifications.
Kento Nishimatsu, DataSauce’s Head of Search, fronted the effort to achieve Premier status.
"It’s great to see DataSauce continuing to head in the right direction, which is a credit to the entire team’s hard work. This is just the beginning though. We’ll be working with Google even more closely to accelerate clients’ growth,” Kento said.
