SMS-first AI engagement
At CloudOne, Patrick led the shift to SMS-first contact across three brands, lifting contact rates roughly 50% in the first weeks and pushing connection rates toward ~75%.
Patrick DeLuca — Founder, StudioDDx
From the microphone to the marketing stack.
Patrick spent the first half of his career in broadcast radio: morning show host, imaging director, on-air personality, and part of a top-rated morning team in Canton, OH. Then he spent the next decade building marketing systems at the exact point where creative, data, and engineering meet.
Founder-led delivery
The person you talk to is the person who builds it.
StudioDDx is a sole proprietorship by design. Patrick works directly with founders, operators, and leadership teams who need someone who can diagnose a funnel, restructure an ad account, deploy an AI agent, and explain the ROI without hiding behind an account manager.
At CloudOne, he directs marketing operations across three consumer-facing automotive lead-generation brands — CreditYES, CarApprovalPro, and NOLA Car Deals — reporting to the COO. That means he lives inside the same problems StudioDDx solves for clients: wasted paid-search spend, slow lead response, disconnected reporting, and automation that looks good in a demo but never ships.
The studio is not a large agency, and it does not pretend to be one. The promise is senior attention, technical fluency, fast implementation, and honest scope.
What StudioDDx is best at
- Turning messy growth operations into clear, repeatable systems
- Finding paid-search waste and rebuilding Google Ads account structure
- Deploying AI lead engagement and follow-up flows across SMS, chat, and messaging
- Wiring executive reporting that actually changes decisions
- Building on Cloudflare's edge: Workers, D1, Durable Objects, Vectorize, Queues
Resume-backed impact
Marketing leadership plus technical execution.
Patrick's recent work sits at the intersection of paid acquisition, AI engagement, contact-center integration, and Cloudflare edge infrastructure.
Google Ads restructuring
He rebuilt accounts using search-term mining, negative-keyword expansion, and a three-tier campaign architecture to separate high spend, efficient performers, and experiments.
Cloudflare edge AI engine
He designed and shipped an Agentic AI Engagement Engine on Workers, Durable Objects, D1, Vectorize, Queues, and AI Gateway — handling webchat, SMS, WhatsApp, Telegram, and Messenger.
Operating principles
Ship systems. Skip the theater.
StudioDDx is built to look serious without inventing scale. The work is founder-led, the results are resume-backed, and the scope is always honest.
Systems, not decks
Strategy is only useful when it becomes a workflow, dashboard, agent, script, or operating process that runs without constant babysitting.
AI where it compounds
The best AI investments are repeatable: qualification, routing, reporting, search-term review, creative variation, and knowledge reuse.
Honest scope
Every project needs a clear bottleneck, a clear buyer, a clear handoff, and a clear reason automation belongs in the system.
