Engagements from
$2,500/mo
Comparable full-service retainers run $3,000–$8,000/mo — and often take 10–20% of your ad spend on top.
Four steps. No hourly billing.
1
Audit
We baseline your numbers and map exactly where revenue is leaking.
2
Scope & Quote
Fixed project quote with projected payback — you know the math before you spend.
3
Build
Live in days or weeks with AI-accelerated delivery and your approval at every gate.
4
Prove & Scale
Monthly reporting on what each system earned. Double down on what works.
Who does the work
You do — nights and weekends, on top of running the business
You manage each specialist and connect the pieces yourself
An account manager relays to a delivery team
We build, manage, and monitor it — approval gates keep you in control
How you pay
$50–$300/mo per tool, and your time
Hourly — totals are unpredictable
Retainers commonly $3,000–$8,000/mo; ads often 10–20% of spend
Fixed project quotes + flat managed fees. Never hourly, never a % of ad spend
What gets measured
Whatever you have time to check
Task completion
Activity: posts, clicks, impressions, hours
Revenue outcomes: leads recovered, jobs booked, hours saved, cost per hire
What you own
Your accounts — and all the unfinished setup
Deliverables, scattered across vendors
Often their platform, their ad accounts, their data
Everything: your site code, your ad accounts, your CRM, your data
When something breaks
You troubleshoot it
You find out who’s responsible
Ticket queue
One accountable partner — if it isn’t paying for itself, we fix it or turn it off
Software prices reflect typical small-business tool stacks; agency figures reflect published 2026 U.S. market ranges for multi-channel small-business retainers.
Five things we will always put in writing.
1
Scoped against a number
Every engagement starts with your baseline and ends with a monthly report showing what the system earned. You never wonder whether it’s working — the report says so, in dollars.
2
One partner, whole system
Website, phones, CRM, ads, content, AI staff, and hiring — designed to work as one machine, reported in one place. No more vendors pointing at each other.
3
Flat, honest pricing
Fixed project quotes with projected payback. Flat managed fees. No hourly billing, no percentage of your ad spend, no placement fees — we have no incentive to inflate your costs.
4
You own everything
Your code, your ad accounts, your data, your customer list. If we ever part ways, the machine keeps running and everything stays with you.
5
AI-fast, human-accountable
AI-accelerated delivery gets systems live in days or weeks, not quarters — with your approval at every gate and humans responsible for every decision that matters.
— Baseline: missed calls, lost leads, manual hours, cost per booked job
— Ad-account audit + hiring-funnel mystery-apply test included
— Written action plan with projected payback per fix
