Akelis didn’t hand us a deck and disappear. They sat with our managers, learned the menu, then quietly turned our marketing into the strongest engine we’ve got, three quarters running.

About · 04

Eleven senior people. No juniors hidden behind a deck.

Akelis Media was founded in 2021 by a strategist and a creative director who got tired of agencies that confuse activity with progress.

Every engagement is led by a partner. Every dollar of ad spend is reviewed weekly. Every piece of creative is reviewed against the same question: does this make us money, or does it just look good in a portfolio?

We work with brands who are ready to grow, not brands who want a vendor to blame.

FAQ · 05

Common questions.

Direct answers to what most prospects ask in their first call.

How long until we see results?

Most clients see meaningful lift within 30-60 days. Compounding gains typically land between months 3 and 6.

Do you work on retainer or per project?

+
Both. We prefer 6-12 month retainers for performance work because the math gets dramatically better with iteration.

What’s your minimum monthly investment?

+
Retainers start at $5,000/month for focused single-channel work and scale to $30k+ for full-stack growth partnerships.

Will I work with the founders or junior staff?

+
Every account has a senior strategist and at least one of the founders directly involved in monthly reviews.

Do you guarantee results?

+
We guarantee transparent reporting, weekly progress, and a no-questions exit clause if month 3 isn’t trending right.
