I think that particular Digital Strategy Group also being in Chicago is a pure coincidence, there are a lot of Digital Strategy Groups. Turns out people aren't very creative when it comes to business names.
This particular one is the doing business as name for Eric Coats. This is him in his day job as "Digital Manager" for Serve America PAC:

Initially he performed services for Wu under his own name but switched to his LLC last year.

Mainly he's been doing work for Seth Moulton via his campaign committee as well as for his aforementioned super PAC. He has had a handful of other clients though, the relevant one I suspect in this case is Andrew Yang. As far as I can tell he got his start with Richard Cordray's run for governor of Ohio in 2018. That's the only thing on his linkedin, no education or anything. From FEC records he may have been unemployed before that.
Wu is by far his most lucrative client though. This guy really knows which side his bread is buttered on. If Wu is going to get paid thousands for basically no work, he's right aboard that scam train. Five minutes with the Facebook API a week? That'll be 5000 bucks, thanks. You can see
a complete list of his work at this link.
On another topic nobody as mentioned, that 180K scam PAC raised in the last 6 months? Only 80K came from the plebs. The majority of the funding came from one 100K donation from Joseph Sanberg, a hedge fund guy turned investor. I don't know if this is a coincidence or not, but one of his major investments is in Blue Apron... I'm sure there must be some connection, because this guy doesn't regularly drop such large sums of money on random scam PACs.
Also, remember Scam PAC's much vaunted boots on the ground GOTV campaign in Georgia? That consisted of dropping 6K bucks on Zain Lilani who is the head of TYT Army Georgia (I suspect there aren't very many others to be head of, but there you are.) This guy basically got paid for what he probably would have done for free anyway and that was the full extent of Wu's senatorial efforts. He
did this podcast with Wu back in January. I don't recommend listening to it in it's entirety because it's an hour of extremely boring waffle, but there was a funny bit at the very beginning of the interview (about 12 minutes in) when Wu opens with "I don't know whether you know this but I used to be an investigative journalist...." and the host comes back with the obvious follow up "Oh yeah? Who did you write for?"
Wu is completely unprepared for this and has to admit that she wrote for the Daily Mississippian, adding the "Oxford Town" a publication I can find no evidence of its existence, and "various independent magazines" ("they go to another school... in Canada... you wouldn't know them" Wu did not add.)
Scampac brought in $31k and spent $30k
