You pay retainers, endure lengthy onboarding, and often receive reports filled with vanity metrics. The incentive structure of traditional agencies—billing by the hour or by project—often means they are incentivized to take longer, not to deliver results faster. This leads to slow progress, unclear ROI, and a constant battle for transparency. Many SMBs spend upwards of $10k-$30k a month with agencies, only to find themselves questioning the value. PsychoBugs offers a fundamental shift in this paradigm, focusing on tangible outcomes.
