The BrightIQ Model

Results as a Service

You Pay for Results — Not Hours Spent Getting There

Results as a Service means every BrightIQ deliverable has a fixed price. An audit costs £297 whether it takes 10 minutes or 10 hours. You buy the outcome — the time is my problem.

The Problem with Hourly SEO

The traditional SEO model charges by the hour or the day. That creates a perverse incentive: the slower the work, the more you pay. When your SEO agency takes 8 hours to build a report, you foot the bill for 8 hours — even though most of that time is copying data between tools.

Hourly billing also makes it impossible to predict costs. "It depends" is the standard answer to every pricing question. Scope creep is built into the model — the more the project evolves, the more hours pile up.

The result: you pay for effort, not outcomes. And the cost of improvement gets passed to you rather than absorbed by the provider.

Results as a Service — fixed-price deliverable tracking with satisfaction metrics

How Results as a Service Works

1

Fixed Price Per Deliverable

Every service has a published price. An AI SEO Audit is £297. A Prospect Audit is £67. Automated reporting starts at £297/month. No estimates, no quotes, no "it depends".

2

Automated Delivery

Automation handles the repetitive work — crawling, analysis, scoring, report generation . Human expertise handles strategy, quality control, and client context. You get both.

3

You Keep the Margin

When I find a way to deliver faster, the price stays the same. The efficiency gain is mine to invest in better output — not yours to pay for in billable hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Results as a Service mean?

You pay for defined deliverables at fixed prices — not hourly rates. An audit costs £297 whether it takes 10 minutes or 10 hours. You buy the outcome, not the time.

How is this different from a traditional SEO retainer?

Traditional retainers bill for time. If your SEO takes 20 hours this month, you pay for 20 hours — regardless of what was actually delivered. RaaS flips this: you pay for specific deliverables at fixed prices. The efficiency is my problem, not yours.

What if I need something not on the price list?

Book a call. I will scope the work, give you a fixed price, and deliver it. Every project gets a clear price before work begins — no surprises, no scope creep.

Who built this

Every system, every pipeline, every deliverable — built and maintained by one person.

I created the Results as a Service model because I believe you should pay for what you get, not how long it takes. Every BrightIQ service has a published price. I invest in making delivery faster and better — that efficiency benefits the output quality, not your invoice.

Why this matters

  • Every service has a fixed, published price — no hourly estimates, no scope creep, no surprises
  • The person who built the systems is the person who delivers the outcomes — one point of accountability
  • Efficiency gains go into better output quality, not higher invoices
