What Are the Risks of Hiring a Marketing Agency That Overpromises and Underdelivers?

Tired of vague agencies and empty promises? Launch Kit fixes that with in-house work, clear communication, and real results — all from one trusted Grand Rapids marketing team.

If you’ve worked with a marketing agency before and felt burned, you’re not alone. Most small business owners we meet have a similar story: big promises upfront, vague updates, bloated invoices, and disappointing results.

So what’s the risk of working with the wrong agency? Here’s what we hear the most:

  • You waste months (and thousands) with no return
  • You’re left with work that’s generic, outsourced, or rushed
  • You still feel like you’re doing all the coordinating
  • You lose trust in marketing altogether

At Launch Kit, we’ve built our entire process around fixing those problems. Here’s how we’re different:

  • All work is done in-house by our full-time Grand Rapids team
  • Clear communication and progress tracking every step of the way
  • Real results — from better leads to a stronger online presence
  • One local team doing your website, ads, social media, photo, video, and SEO — all in sync

No vague proposals. No offshoring. No guessing who’s working on what. You’ll know what’s being done, why it matters, and who to call if you need something.

If you’ve been burned before, we get it. We’ve built Launch Kit to be the team that finally gets it right.
