— Story
Why a single-operator agency, in 2026
Most digital agencies are organized like factories — a sales team, an account team, a strategy team, a design team, a development team, a media-buying team. The client pitches a project to one team, signs with another, gets execution from a third, and reports back to a fourth. Every handoff is a translation, and every translation loses information.
After ten years in-house at product companies — leading web teams, running paid acquisition, managing SEO programs — I started Alexey Kachan Agency in 2014 because I wanted the opposite. One person responsible. The strategist is also the senior code reviewer. The designer is also the SEO lead. The person on the kickoff call is the person on the post-launch call eighteen months later.
It scales by being deliberate. We do not take every project that lands in the inbox. We pair with a small bench of trusted specialists — senior engineers, native-speaker copywriters, ad-platform specialists — when scope demands. But every relationship runs through one accountable owner. That is the product. It is also the moat.

— Values
Five things we will not do
- /01
Surprise pricing
Every quote is fixed before the contract is signed. If scope changes, we re-quote in writing — never silently.
- /02
Vanity metrics
If a chart does not connect to revenue, leads, or rankings, it does not go in the report.
- /03
Outsourcing chains
When we use specialists, we name them. Your project is never quietly handed to a third agency.
- /04
Machine-translated content
Every word in a non-English language is reviewed by a native speaker. Period.
- /05
Locked-in vendor traps
Codebase on your GitHub, content on your CMS, ad accounts on your domains. Cancel anytime.
