About Rent One

Rent One is a multi-location home furnishings brand with over 100 stores and a rapidly growing eCommerce presence. Despite clear scale potential, their digital growth was stalling—bogged down by unreliable data, underperforming ad spend, and weak agency support.

Problem

Rent One came to PenPath seeking a growth partner, not just another vendor. They needed:

  • Profit-Driven Strategy: A path to 30% YoY eCommerce revenue growth.
  • Clear Attribution: Fix broken GA4 tracking that made decision-making guesswork.
  • Ad Efficiency: Untangle and optimize ad campaigns draining budget.
  • Full-Funnel Alignment: Clean data, smart strategy, and accountable execution.
  • Compliance Confidence: Adhere to Google Ads and cookie/privacy regulations.

In short, they wanted results—not reports.

What Was Blocking Growth

  • Bad Data = Bad Decisions: Traffic was misattributed, sessions were unlisted, and internal/external teams couldn’t solve it.
  • Broken Campaign Structures: Google Ads had Branded + Non-Brand keywords in the same campaigns, stifling scale and misleading ROAS.
  • Wasted Budget: Google Shopping was non-functional due to rent-to-own compliance issues. Merchant Center wasn’t properly configured.
  • Compliance Risks: Cookie issues left them exposed to legal threats.
  • Poor Agency Communication: Their previous agency made silent changes, causing revenue dips with zero accountability.

Rather than “fixing” reports, we built a performance engine.

Why It Worked

PenPath embedded as an operator, not a vendor:

  • Strategy + Execution: No pass-offs.
  • Tech Meets Business: Analytics, compliance, and acquisition fused.
  • Relentless Optimization: Dashboards weren’t the product—outcomes were.

“This is what happens when you treat data as a tool, not a deliverable.”
