№ 01 — The Manifesto

We are not okay.
Your competitors
should worry.

Exhibit A

Most agencies still optimise for a web that's dying.

Ten blue links. Banner ads. Funnels designed for humans browsing in 2018. In 2026, your next customer might never visit your site. They'll ask ChatGPT, let an AI agent compare, and buy on the model's recommendation. The agencies running last decade's playbook are quietly losing your future for you.

[ filed: agency · industry ] we noticed
Exhibit B

We are practitioners. Not theorists.

Our CEO operates his own Shopify brands (Pet Buckets, SharkFlexStyles) and tests every strategy on his own budget before recommending it to yours. We've shipped 50+ projects across 6 countries. We've delivered white-label work for Hotpepper, Search Specialists, Black Panda, GMB Crush, and Contntr. If you've worked with a US agency recently, there's a decent chance the work was ours.

[ filed: receipts · proof ] verified
Exhibit C

We do the deep work most agencies skip.

Technical SEO that makes you visible to Google and the LLMs replacing it. JSON-LD entity stacking. Production Flutter apps, not prototypes. Figma-to-code in the same team. Brand video that sells. n8n automations that eliminate the busywork your team is drowning in. No four-vendor chains. One team. Full stack. Every deliverable owned end-to-end.

[ filed: services · in-house ] all of it.

Nine
obsessions.
One team.

Every handoff between vendors is where quality dies and accountability disappears. We own all nine disciplines in-house from the JSON-LD to the App Store. Open any file.
File №01 Flagship

SEO
& GEO

"Your competitors are ranking on Google. AND getting named by ChatGPT. You're not."

Technical SEO, topical clusters, entity stacking schema, local GBP systems for traditional search. Then GEO strategies that make LLMs recommend you by name when someone asks.

TechnicalLocal · GBPGEO / LLME-com

File №02 Certified

Content &
Copywriting

"Content that reads like AI wrote it gets treated like AI wrote it. Ignored."

Surfer, Neuron Writer, and ZimmWriter certified. 56-article cluster engines that rank. Plus the convert-side: landing copy, email sequences, and ad creative that sells.

File №03 Battle-tested

Web
Development

"A slow, broken site is the most expensive thing you own."

35+ WordPress builds. Custom code, performance-first, conversion-built, SEO-ready. Plus migrations, hosting, and the 3am problems other agencies won't pick up the phone for.

WordPressCustomHostingCore Web Vitals

File №04 Storefront

Shopify
Development

"Your theme is fighting your conversion rate. And winning."

16+ stores shipped. Custom Liquid, Hydrogen builds, platform migrations, speed surgery. We run our own Shopify brands, so your store gets what works on ours.

App
Development

"Most app agencies hand you a prototype. Six months later: still 'in staging.'"

Production Flutter apps on the App Store, used by real customers placing real orders. Restaurant ordering systems. E-commerce apps. Custom builds. We've shipped, not pitched.

File №06 Obsessed

Figma UI/UX
& Design

"Generic design is invisible. Invisible businesses don't grow."

End-to-end Figma, wireframes through developer handoff. Brand identities, social systems, print, decks. We translate Figma to production code in the same team, same standard.

File №07 NEW PLATFORM

Paid Ads —
Google & ChatGPT

"There's a new ad platform your competitors haven't figured out yet."

Google Search built around real purchase intent. AND ChatGPT Ads, live since Feb 2026 and expanding globally. Early movers win prime inventory. We can put you there.

File №08 Lights On

Brand
Video

"People watch video. They skim everything else."

Brand films, commercials, product video, social cuts, UGC, motion graphics. Sales-driven storytelling, not film-school vanity. White-label video partner to US agencies since 2020.

AI &
Automation

"If your team does it manually every week, you're paying for it twice."

n8n and Zapier pipelines that eliminate repetitive work: onboarding, CRM sync, reporting, API integrations. Plus AI agents and MCP orchestration for the agentic era already underway.

№ 03 · The Method

We don't pitch
a process.
We run a protocol.

Other agencies sell you a 47-page strategy deck and disappear. We have a four-step protocol that runs on autopilot from kickoff to compounding results. No black boxes. No "let me check with the team." Just the work, on time, every week, until it's done.
01 Week 1
Discovery

We dig.

Full technical, competitive, and AI-visibility audit. We find what's actually costing you, not what's convenient to report. You get the honest diagnosis before we charge you a thing. No fluff. No 47-page decks.

[ free audit ] it's brutal
02 Week 2
Roadmap

We plot.

Specific deliverables. Specific dates. Specific milestones. You see the whole plan. Not a vibe, not a "phased approach," not a strategy doc you'll never open again. A build plan you can hold us to.

[ scoped & signed ] in writing
03 Ongoing
Execution

We ship.

The work. Every week. Weekly progress drops, proactive flags before anything breaks, full ownership end-to-end. You'll know what moved before you have to ask. This is the part most agencies skip.

[ weekly updates ] obsessively
04 Forever
Compound

We scale.

Transparent reporting on metrics that actually matter: rankings, leads, AI citations, revenue. Then we identify the next lever and build again. Results that compound, not flatline.

[ measurable ] on repeat
And then we don't disappear. novel concept, we know.
Breaking · ChatGPT Ads Live Feb '26 · Expanding Globally Now

Your next customer
might ask ChatGPT
to find you.

or Claude. or Perplexity. they're all doing it ↘

ChatGPT ads went live in February 2026 and expanded to the UK, Brazil, Japan, and South Korea last week. Agents like ChatGPT and Claude now influence 73% of consumer purchase journeys. By the end of this year, 1 in 3 online purchases will be made (or heavily influenced) by an AI agent that never visits your website.

Agencies still selling "ten blue links" SEO are optimising you for a channel that's shrinking. We don't just rank you on Google. We build the entity authority, structured data, and content systems that make you the answer when someone asks an LLM about what you do.

The brands adapting right now become the default recommendation for the next decade. The ones that don't get quietly disappeared by a model that never knew they existed.

Five years.
One partnership.
Zero drama.

Hotpepper Agency has routed client work through us since 2020. SEO programs, content engines, brand video, local SEO builds. All shipped under their flag, to their clients, at a standard their reputation can stand on.

agencies don't keep partners 5 years on price.

They keep them on reliability, quality, and the absence of drama. We don't poach partner clients. We don't co-brand without permission. We don't miss weeks. Read how the partnership actually works.

№ 06 — Why Marketing Maniacs

You've hired
agencies before.
This is different.

01/

Registered in two countries

SECP-registered in Pakistan (A827871). Marketing Maniacs LLC in Texas, USA. Formal. Accountable. Operating in both markets on the books, not in someone's cousin's Gmail.

02/

No outsourcing. Full stop.

SEO, content, dev, Shopify, apps, design, ads, video, automation. All nine in-house. One team accountable for everything. "Our partner dropped the ball" is not a sentence we use, ever.

03/

Built for the AI era

Entity stacking, GEO, ChatGPT Ads, AI-accessible structured data. We've been quietly doing the technical groundwork that makes brands visible in the new search landscape since 2024.

04/

The agency other agencies trust

Hotpepper, Search Specialists, Black Panda, GMB Crush, and Contntr route client work through us. That's verifiable, on request, with references. That's the standard we operate at every day.

№ 07 — Coordinates

We're where
your business needs us.

Six locations across five continents. Two registered entities. One accountable team. Time-zone coverage isn't a marketing claim. It's how we're physically structured.
