About
A small agency,
run that way
on purpose.
ROMIUS exists to give smaller businesses the standard of marketing normally reserved for companies that can afford a large retainer — without the layers that make those retainers necessary.
What we are for
Help businesses grow through marketing that is planned properly, executed carefully and measured honestly.
That sentence sounds modest, and it is meant to. Most marketing does not fail because of a lack of ambition. It fails because nobody established what the offer was, nobody checked whether the tracking worked, and nobody was willing to say that a channel should be turned off.
Every business we work with gets its own plan. We do not run a template across nine clients and change the logo — the economics of a dental clinic and a car dealership have almost nothing in common, and the strategy should reflect that.
Founder
Roman Marian
Founder, ROMIUS
I started ROMIUS with one goal: to make professional digital marketing available to businesses of any size, not only to the ones that can absorb a five-figure monthly retainer.
Before that I spent my time doing the work rather than managing people who do it — building campaigns, fixing tracking that had never been checked, and explaining reports to owners who had been handed a dashboard and no interpretation. That is still how I work. When you brief ROMIUS, the person listening is the person building.
I would rather tell a business that a channel is not right for them and keep the relationship than take the budget and produce a disappointing quarter. That has cost me work. It has also meant the clients who stay, stay.
- Strategy before execution The plan is agreed before the budget moves. Campaigns built without one are expensive experiments.
- Decisions backed by data Tracking first, opinions second. If the numbers cannot be verified, the decision is not made yet.
- Transparent relationships You own the accounts and see the real spend. Nothing is marked up in the background.
- Business outcomes, not vanity metrics Reach and impressions are inputs. Enquiries, bookings and sales are the point.
Scope
Full-service, in the useful sense.
Strategy, paid media, content production, websites, automation and analytics under one roof, which matters less as a sales point than as a practical one. When the person writing the strategy also builds the landing page and reads the analytics, nothing gets lost between three suppliers blaming each other.
- E-commerce
- Local Businesses
- Real Estate
- Restaurants & Hospitality
- Healthcare & Beauty
- Fitness
- Automotive
- Professional Services
- Personal Brands
These are the sectors where we already know the economics. The approach does not change elsewhere — we would just spend the first week learning your numbers rather than assuming them.
How we work
Five stages. No mystery.
The same sequence applies whether the engagement is one channel or all of them. You always know which stage you are in and what comes next.
-
01
Discover
Margins, capacity, average customer value, sales process and what has already been tried. We need these numbers before recommending anything.
-
02
Strategy
Positioning, channel selection and budget allocation, written down with reasoning, including the channels we deliberately leave out.
-
03
Launch
Tracking implemented and verified first. Then campaigns, creative and landing pages built and taken live in a controlled sequence.
-
04
Optimise
A weekly cycle. Cut what is not working, put budget behind what is, keep new creative entering the account before the current set fatigues.
-
05
Grow
Once a channel is producing predictably, we scale it or open the next one, with the same measurement standard applied from the start.
Questions
The things people ask first.
-
What does working with ROMIUS cost?
It depends on scope — the number of channels, whether creative production is included, and how much is being spent on media. We quote a monthly fee after the first conversation, with no long lock-in. We do not take a percentage of your ad spend, because that rewards spending more rather than spending well.
-
Do I need to commit to a long contract?
No. We ask for enough time for the work to be judged fairly, usually three months, because paid media needs data before it can be evaluated — but not a twelve-month commitment.
-
Who owns the ad accounts and the data?
You do. Accounts are created under your business, we are granted access, and that access can be removed at any time. The same applies to the website, the tracking container and any creative produced.
-
What is the minimum budget worth starting with?
Below a certain spend, a channel cannot generate enough data to be optimised, and the management effort is not justified. We will tell you in the first conversation if your budget is better spent on one channel done properly than split across three.
-
Can you work with our existing developer or in-house team?
Yes, and it is often the best arrangement. We can handle strategy and paid media while your team handles the site, or the reverse.
-
Do you guarantee results?
No, and you should be cautious of anyone who does. Results depend on your offer, your market, your competition and your budget — several of which are outside our control. What we guarantee is the standard of the work, the honesty of the reporting, and that we will tell you when something is not working.
