Agencies charge by the hour.
We charge by the month.
Typical AU local-business agencies charge A$1,800–5,000/month to fix one channel — SEO, or ads, or social. Revara runs your whole growth system: reputation, AI search visibility, follow-ups, and customer lifecycle. AI does the heavy lifting, humans check every draft, you approve what goes live. A$799/month, month-to-month.

When an agency still makes sense
If your media budget is A$20k+/month and you need a dedicated human team running complex paid campaigns, a traditional agency is the right call. Revara is for local service businesses who want the growth system without the retainer, and who’d rather approve AI drafts in 30 seconds than sit through a monthly agency call.
