No BS!

1. No BS Retainers: Only Pay for What You Need

One of the most frustrating aspects of working with many digital agencies is being locked into a retainer agreement. These retainers become a fixed fee, and you’re never quite sure what work is being done but you have to pay the monthly fee anyway.

Some agencies bundle a range of services you may not need or even want, forcing you to pay for unnecessary extras that don’t benefit your business.

At Concise, we don’t believe in keeping you on a leash with a monthly retainer. Instead, we offer flexibility and transparency. We work with you to understand your specific business needs, then create a tailored plan that focuses on the services that will truly drive results for you.

You only pay for what you need when you need it, whether that’s ongoing SEO, a one-off website redesign, or a short-term PPC campaign.

Our model is simple: No retainer traps, no wasted budget, and no paying for services you don’t require.

Why it Matters

• Complete Transparency: You know exactly what you’re paying for, and there’s no hidden cost.
• Flexibility: Adjust your strategy and services based on evolving business goals.
• Cost-Efficiency: You don’t pay for things you don’t use. Every dollar is spent on what’s necessary to move your business forward.

2. No BS Contracts: Month-to-Month, No Lock-Ins

Many digital marketing agencies require you to sign long-term contracts, often locking you into year-long agreements. But what if the strategy isn’t working for you? What if you want to change direction, or simply feel like you’re not getting the value you were promised? What is you fall out of love with the agency? Too bad, because you’re stuck with that contract.

At Concise Digital, we don’t believe in locking you into long-term commitments. We operate on a month-to-month basis, which means you have the freedom to reassess and adjust at any time. If our approach isn’t working or your business needs change, you can decide whether to continue or move on with no penalties and no hard feelings.

Why it Matters

• Freedom: You’re never tied into a contract that no longer suits your needs.
• No Pressure: We focus on delivering results, not keeping you bound by a contract.
• Trust: Our commitment is to your success, and we believe earning your business every month is the way to build a long-lasting relationship.

3. No BS Notice Periods: Leave When You Want, No Strings Attached

Another common pain point in the industry is the long notice periods that some agencies require if you want to exit a contract. You might be unhappy with the results, but if you want to switch agencies, you often have to give 30, 60, or even 90 days’ notice. Or worse, you’re locked in until the very end of the contract period, and some agencies have 24 month contract period. (Yep, it’s true.) That’s time you could be spending with a new agency that better aligns with your needs.

At Concise, we don’t force long notice periods. If you decide you no longer want to work with us, we’ll make the transition as smooth as possible and ensure you’re not stuck waiting to make a change. Our goal is to provide value every step of the way. If we aren’t the right fit for your business any more, we want you to be able to move on quickly.

Why it Matters

• No Hassle: If you need to switch or discontinue services, you won’t be bogged down with long notice periods.
• Agility: The digital marketing world moves fast, and sometimes you need to pivot quickly. We respect that.
• Clarity: Our goal is always to make sure you’re getting the best results possible. If we’re no longer the right partner, we’ll part ways without a complicated exit process.

4. No BS Snake Oil or Magic Bullets: Real, Data-Driven Solutions

There’s no shortage of digital marketing “experts” out there selling quick fixes and “magic bullets.” These might include promises of instant SEO results, overnight social media growth, or “secret” tactics that “guarantee” success. But the truth is, digital marketing is a long-term game. There’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all solution, and no shortcuts that will magically fix all of your problems.

At Concise Digital, we focus on real, sustainable strategies. We don’t sell snake oil. Instead, we use proven, data-backed methods tailored to your unique business goals. Whether that’s through SEO, social media, content marketing, pay-per-click advertising, or a custom website redesign, we rely on data and analytics to guide our decisions to ensure that everything we do for you aligns with your objectives.

Why it Matters

• No Empty Promises: We’ll never promise overnight results or sell you on unproven methods.
• Real-World Strategy: We create long-term, sustainable digital strategies based on data, not shortcuts.
• Transparency: You’ll always know why we’re recommending a strategy and how it’s designed to achieve your goals.

5. No BS at All: Honesty, Transparency, and Clear Communication

You’ve heard it before: “We’re the best in the business!” “We guarantee results!” “We can help you go viral overnight!” Statements like these are usually ambiguous or vague which makes them meaningless, designed to pull you in so the agency can get your money first without delivering much of substance. At Concise, we keep it real. We don’t use jargon or buzzwords to confuse you. We’ll tell you exactly what we’re doing, why we’re doing it, and how it’s going to help your business succeed.

If something isn’t working, we’ll be upfront about it. If a strategy isn’t delivering the expected results, we’ll make adjustments and explain why. There’s no fluff and no hidden agendas – just straightforward, honest communication.

Why it Matters

• Clarity: You’ll always understand what’s going on with your marketing efforts.
• No Hidden Costs: Everything is upfront and clear, with no surprises or jargon.
• Trust: Honesty is the foundation of any successful relationship. We value your trust and work to maintain it with transparency and integrity.
