    How we work.

    01

    Discovery

    We get on a call. We ask questions. We look at what you're doing now, what's working, what's not, and where the gaps are. If we think we can help, we'll tell you how. If we can't, we'll say that too.

    02

    Strategy

    We map out the plan. Who you're talking to, what you're saying, where you're showing up, and how leads move through your system. No 47-page deck. A clear, prioritised plan you can actually follow.

    03

    Build

    We build the brand, the website, the campaigns, the funnels, the CRM, the automations, whatever the strategy says you need. You review and approve. We launch.

    04

    Run

    We manage it monthly. Content goes out. Campaigns get optimised. Leads get followed up. Pipeline gets reviewed. You get a report and a strategy call. The system runs whether you're watching or not.

    The Growth Engine

    Want everything built and managed for one monthly fee?

    Website, CRM, email, SMS, AI chatbot, social media, and lead follow-up. All on one platform. All managed by us. Three tiers starting at $497/month.

    Rahul Bakaya

    15 years of building things that actually work.

    BAKAYA was founded by Rahul Bakaya. 15+ years in marketing across SaaS, proptech, real estate, fintech, and professional services. Former Regional Head of Marketing at Alteryx (Australia & NZ). Author of "How to Explain SEO to Your Boss."

    We started BAKAYA because we kept seeing the same thing: businesses spending money on marketing and getting nothing back. Not because the ads were wrong or the content was bad. Because nobody had built the system underneath it.

    So we build the system. And then we run it.

    Based in Sydney. Working with businesses across Australia and beyond.
