Caleb and Aidan from Better Agencies

Finding a good agency is harder than it should be.

You get hit with flashy proposals, big promises, and 12-month lock-in contracts. Half the time the person who sold you isn't even the one doing the work. You deserve better than that.

THE PROCESS

Wait, so how does it work?

01

Jump on a call.

We'll chat about your business, your goals, and what's happening with your marketing right now. No sales pitch — just a conversation.

02

We audit your marketing channels or current agencies.

We dig into what's actually going on — your campaigns, your reports, your results. If you already have an agency, we'll review their work.

03

We tell you how they're doing and identify opportunities they might miss.

If they're doing a good job, we'll tell you. Honestly. But if there are gaps or things being overlooked, we'll flag them.

04

We recommend multiple agencies or freelancers we've vetted over years.

Not one option — multiple. You choose who feels right for your business, your budget, and your working style.

05

The agency pays us, not you.

That's how we keep this free for you. The agency pays us for the introduction — it doesn't cost you a cent more than going direct.

06

We check in throughout the campaign to support you.

We don't just hand you off and disappear. We stay in your corner, checking the work is being done and that you're getting results.

A RARE WIN-WIN

Why would the agencies do that?

0%
of an agency's revenue goes to advertising, marketing themselves and chasing new clients

A lot of which might not even be a good fit. So being handed a client who's a great match and could be a long-term partner? That's worth paying us for — all day long.

A dirty secret
Agencies do this anyway. We've been behind the scenes — agencies only recommend people they have a two-way referral relationship with, or who pay them for it. Sometimes up to 20%. We just make it transparent and fair.
WHEN TO CALL US

Sound familiar?

"Is my agency actually doing a good job? The reports look nice but I honestly can't tell."
We'll audit their work and give you an honest opinion. If they're doing a great job, we'll tell you to stay put.
Caleb
"Should I be putting money into SEO, Google Ads, or social? Everyone tells me something different."
We'll look at your business and budget, then tell you what actually makes sense — not what someone's trying to sell you.
Aidan Michael
"We're tendering for an agency and I need someone in the room who speaks their language."
We'll sit in on the pitches, ask the hard questions, and help you cut through the agency bullshit.

OUR NETWORK

25 agencies that are honestly awesome.

How do we vet them?

01

Tenure

We need to have known them for at least one year. No strangers in our network.

02

Report & Proposal Review

We review their most recent report and proposal. If it doesn't stack up, they don't get in.

03

Wins & Losses

We review their most successful campaign... and one that didn't work. Not all campaigns will work, but understanding why matters.

04

Integrity Check

What do they report on? Who does their sales? Do they do lock-in contracts — if so, how long? We check everything.

05

Real Specialists

They actually have a specialist in each particular marketing channel they say they do. Not generalists pretending.

Most agencies don't make it through. 25 did.

We also have a shit list.

Wanna see who we don't work with...?

SOCIAL PROOF

Don't just take our word for it

A Computer Science degree and a career building websites and apps. Aidan vets the technical end of our network — the web development and AI automation agencies — and checks that the tracking behind every campaign is actually measuring what matters, so nobody can hide behind a pretty dashboard.

Frequently asked questions

Yes, 100%. The agency pays us for the introduction. You don't pay us anything, and it doesn't cost you a cent more than going direct. We just take a cut from the agency's end.

That's fine. We'll audit their work and tell you honestly whether they're doing a good job. If they are, we'll tell you. If they're not, we'll help you find someone better.

Usually 2-3 that we think are a great fit for your business. You choose who feels right — there's no pressure to go with any of them.

No worries at all. There's zero obligation. If none of the agencies feel right, we'll go back to the drawing board or you walk away — no hard feelings.

Nope. We're based in Melbourne but our agency network spans all of Australia. If you're an Australian business, we can help.

The agencies pay us for the introductions we make. This is standard industry practice — agencies typically spend 30% finding new clients anyway. We just give them better-fit clients for less.

Let's talk.

We'll audit your current marketing or agency and tell you what's actually going on.
No fluff, no sales pitch, no obligation. Just honest advice.
