Before Iskakan, we worked at larger agencies. Good people, but the structure was broken. Clients waited 3-4 weeks to launch. Account managers held all the relationships. You'd ask a question and get a 20-slide deck instead of a straight answer. Setup fees were crazy. Contracts locked you in for a year. And worst of all: nobody cared about your actual ROI — they cared about billable hours and scope creep.
We started Iskakan to prove it didn't have to be that way. We wanted to build an agency where clients got speed, transparency, and direct access. Where we took the small retainer and obsessed over making sure you saw a return. Where "no annual contracts" wasn't a gimmick — it was real, because we knew we'd earn your trust every month.
Over 10 years, we've helped hundreds of LA restaurants, salons, real estate agents, and local services rank, convert, and grow. We've made mistakes. We've learned a ton. And we're still here, still taking calls from clients, still running campaigns, still building what we wish had existed when we started.
