Use Case

Hired the wrong agency? Let's fix what they broke.

The problem isn't that you tried marketing — it's that the agency you hired didn't actually do marketing. We audit the work, recover what's salvageable, and replace the rest with a plan that has real deliverables.

The pain

How a bad crypto agency engagement actually fails

Slide decks and screenshots, no shipped work

Monthly reports full of 'impressions' and 'reach'. No published articles, no live SEO pages, no real Reddit threads. When you ask for the actual deliverables, the call gets rescheduled.

Web2 marketers running Web3 playbooks

They don't hold the asset, don't use the protocol, don't know which tier-1 outlets actually move the needle. They send the same pitch they sent for a SaaS company.

Vague retainer, no defined scope

'We'll handle marketing' billed at $15–25k/mo. No deliverable count, no SLAs, no success metric. The contract is designed so they can't fail and you can't tell.

Ghosted after the deposit

Senior people on the pitch call, juniors (or nobody) on the actual work. Slack questions take 4 days to answer. The 90-day mark passes with nothing to show.

Risky tactics that get you penalized

PBN backlinks, upvote bots, fake KOL pumps, bot-farmed Discord members. Short-term metric bumps that turn into Google penalties, sub-bans, and reputation damage you have to clean up.

12-month contract you can't escape

Auto-renew clauses, 90-day termination notice, kill fees. Designed to lock you in even after it's obvious the work isn't landing.

The dream

What it looks like to switch to an agency that actually delivers

An honest audit of what they actually did

Line-by-line review of every deliverable claimed vs. what's verifiably live, indexed, or ranking. You see exactly what you paid for vs. what you got.

Salvage what's reusable, replace what isn't

Some of it might be fine. Most of it usually isn't. We're explicit about which assets stay, which get rewritten, and which get deleted before they hurt you.

Defined scope, defined deliverables, defined timeline

No 'we'll handle marketing'. Specific articles, specific placements, specific pages, specific weeks. You can audit progress in 5 minutes.

Month-to-month, not 12-month lock-in

If we're not delivering by month two, you fire us. We earn the contract every month — the way it should have worked the first time.

Crypto-native team, since 2017

We've held the assets, used the protocols, lost money in the same trades. We know which outlets pay-for-play and which actually drive on-chain users.

References you can call

Before you sign anything, we connect you with 2 past clients in similar stages. Ask them anything — including what we did badly.

What's included

How the recovery engagement works

A clean process to replace a failed agency relationship — without losing momentum, money, or the assets you've already paid for.

01

1. Free 30-min recovery call

You walk us through who you hired, what they promised, and what's missing. We listen and ask the hard questions.

02

2. Written deliverable audit (within 5 days)

We compare every claim in their reports to what's actually live, indexed, or measurable. You get a written verdict on each.

03

3. Salvage map

Which assets keep, which rewrite, which kill. Clear reasons for each — including assets that may actively hurt you (PBN links, bot-farmed accounts, etc).

04

4. Replacement plan with scope + price

Specific work, specific timeline, specific success metrics. No retainer black holes. You see exactly what you're buying.

05

5. Clean handover from the old vendor

We help you wind down the existing contract — exit clauses, asset handover, password rotation, account ownership. So you don't get held hostage.

06

6. First 30 days of execution

Real shipped work in the first month — articles, pages, placements, threads. So you have proof the new engagement is different before you commit further.

Why this page exists

5 questions to diagnose your current agency

Answer these honestly. If the answers are uncomfortable, that's the diagnosis.

  1. 01

    List every deliverable your agency claims to have shipped this quarter. Now open them in a browser. How many are actually live, indexed, and findable?

  2. 02

    What specific business metric was the engagement supposed to move — and how would you prove the agency moved it vs. it happening anyway?

  3. 03

    When you ask for the contract scope in writing, can you point to a defined number of articles, placements, pages, or threads per month? Or is it 'we'll handle marketing'?

  4. 04

    If you fired them tomorrow, do you own the accounts, content, backlinks, and reporting access — or are they hostage to the relationship?

  5. 05

    When you raise concerns on a call, do you get specific answers and shipped work the next week — or reassurance, decks, and 'next quarter we're going to'?

FAQ

Questions, answered.

You shouldn't yet — and you shouldn't have to.

  1. Start with the free deliverable audit. Zero commitment.
  2. Talk to two past clients in a similar stage. Ask anything.
  3. Take a small first engagement with defined scope and success metrics.
  4. Renew, expand, or fire us based on shipped work — not pitch decks.

Trust is earned per shipped deliverable. We expect to earn it the same way.

Then we tell you, and we don't take the engagement.

  • We've told founders 'don't switch yet' more than once — and meant it.
  • Sometimes the issue is scope or coordination, not vendor quality.
  • Switching agencies mid-flight has real cost — we won't push you into it for revenue.

A good audit pays for itself even when the answer is "keep going."

Yes — we've helped clients exit cleanly more times than we'd like to admit.

  1. Read the contract for exit clauses people usually skip.
  2. Negotiate notice periods, kill fees, and clean asset handover.
  3. Coordinate credential rotation and account ownership transfer.
  4. Document the handover in writing so nothing comes back to bite.

We're not lawyers, but we know the playbook. Bring yours in if the contract is heavy.

We flag every risky asset in the audit and plan remediation.

  • Disavow files for toxic backlinks before the next Google update.
  • Migration off compromised social accounts and fake-KOL relationships.
  • Mod outreach on subs where bot-driven threads are at risk of being flagged.

Often the cleanup is the most valuable part of the recovery — quiet damage you didn't know about.

Not necessarily — but the economics are very different.

  • Priced where senior, crypto-native talent actually costs.
  • Month-to-month with 30-day notice. No 12-month lock-ins.
  • Weekly audit-able progress, so you're never paying for nothing for long.

Cheaper agencies that don't deliver are the most expensive line item you'll ever buy.

We'll say so directly — even if it costs us the engagement.

  • Founders whose product had no real users — declined.
  • Tokens with no real utility — flagged before contract.
  • Teams that had stopped shipping — pointed back to product first.

Marketing can't fix those things. We won't take money to pretend it can.

One honest audit, no commitment

Send us the wreckage. We'll send back the audit.

Tell us who you hired and what they were supposed to deliver. Within 5 days, we'll send a written audit comparing claimed work vs. shipped work — plus a salvage map. Even if the answer is 'don't hire anyone yet'.
