Anti-marketing
agency
Since 2023 we have managed over 3.5 million dollars (30 crore rupees) of ad spend on Meta and Google, across 3.6 billion impressions and 96 million clicks. We have also worked with more than 30 brands, in D2C, B2B SaaS, subscription, fintech, travel, beauty, electronics and retail.
Hold a block, drop it in a bucket.
Sort your numbers.
Drop one block and the verdict starts writing itself.
How it works.
Every ad account we open looks roughly like this.
The rough shape of what we keep finding. Yours will be its own number, which is what the free consultation is for.
Ads running
Ads on, this account takes about $13K a day. Now flip the switch.
Killing every single dollar of advertising took out about a third of the day, not all of it. That floor is your brand, your organic traffic and people coming back.
We would rather do a short list well than a long list badly. Take one, take all six.
No 90 day roadmap. No moving in week three. All of it begins the day you say go.
We go through your ads, analytics and order data, and start on the first action points that same day.
Every campaign under break-even stops the same day. This usually pays for us before the first invoice lands.
Rebuilt from your own orders, not platform estimates. Every decision rests on a number you can trust.
One target, agreed with you. Each week, in plain words: where it stands, what moved it and what we do next.
45 minutes. No deck. No invoice afterwards unless you ask for one.
Case studies
Ten of them. Brand names stay out of it, because that is the deal we make with everyone. Everything else is exactly what happened.

About us
In 2007, something revolutionary happened. Richard Laermer and Mark Simmons published Punk Marketing: Get Off Your Ass and Join the Revolution. Their call: power has moved from big to small, from top-down to bottom-up. The brand belongs to the people buying it, not the people selling it, and mediocre marketing does more harm than doing nothing. Their manifesto said it straight: make enemies. No more marketing bullshit.
It is stupid that, nearly twenty years on, most agencies still run on rulebooks written before the feed, the algorithm and AI. They think the old playbook still makes a difference. It does not. PUNKD is punk marketing rebuilt for now: no fluff, no vanity metrics, no playing it safe. Work people notice, judged on revenue. Period.
