You're In Business

BowlerWorks is a conventional digital marketing agency offering a comprehensive list of standard services. While the agency model has clear real-world utility, the submission is heavily penalized for vague and highly exaggerated claims, such as stating 'everyone' is their audience and 'most people have used my product.' With a small team of 6, no demonstrable proprietary technology, and unsupported traction claims, the project falls into the minimal traction category.
