About the client

A venture debt + growth financing partner for SaaS companies — 36-48 month revenue-based loans, no equity dilution.

River SaaS Capital offers non-dilutive venture debt + growth financing for SaaS companies — 36-48 month revenue-based loans + long-term support enabling founders to scale without sacrificing equity.

As demand grows for founder-friendly funding, River positioned itself as a partner for sustainable growth. However, they struggled with limited digital presence + ineffective Google Ads.

i The challenge

Broad targeting + weak conversion + no nurture loops.

Targeting was too broad, drawing unqualified traffic. Ad messaging didn't connect with SaaS decision-makers seeking non-dilutive financing. Lack of tailored landing pages limited conversions. Without automated nurture workflows, warm leads were lost.

SaaS financing competition was growing — generic campaigns + ineffective keyword strategy were a disadvantage.
