Pricing
How My Pricing Works
Effective digital marketing is tailored to your unique business needs. Unlike generic packages or subscriptions that promise fixed costs but often deliver mediocre results, my approach focuses on maximizing your investment. My pricing reflects my extensive experience, allowing me to deliver high-impact strategies efficiently—often surpassing what less experienced providers can achieve. Many local agencies charge premium rates while spending time learning on the job. I’m different. If a task is outside my expertise, I’m transparent and will recommend a trusted specialist or assess whether it’s worth mastering for your benefit.
Investing in quality upfront saves you from costly missteps later. I learned this firsthand when I hired a budget contractor for a bathroom remodel. The initial savings of $1,000 turned into $1,800 in repairs after shoddy plumbing work on a remodeled bathroom caused a flood. The lesson? Cutting corners can cost more in the long run. Your business deserves better—strategic, high-quality marketing that prevents missed opportunities and drives results.
Every business is unique. A startup building its online presence has different needs than an established company optimizing an existing foundation. For example, optimizing your Google Business Listing, starting around $250 if you’ve already claimed and verified it, can significantly boost local visibility and yield long-term returns by attracting more customers. Similarly, a targeted social media ad campaign, starting at about $500, can increase conversions by reaching your ideal audience with precision. Whether you need a comprehensive digital strategy or targeted tweaks to elevate your results, I create a customized plan that aligns with your goals and budget. If you’ve been let down by overpromises in the past, I’ll help you get back on track with a clear, effective approach.
My process begins with listening. I take the time to understand your business, challenges, and objectives, then craft a strategy that delivers measurable outcomes. To optimize your budget, I guide you on simple tasks—like gathering account details, images, or content—that reduce routine work, allowing me to focus on high-value strategies that propel your success.
My goal is to build lasting partnerships, not one-off projects. I aim to be your trusted advisor, like a reliable accountant or attorney, providing ongoing support as your business evolves. Contact me to discuss your goals and budget, and I’ll provide a tailored proposal to drive your digital marketing success.
To build a strong digital foundation, I recommend prioritizing three essentials:
By focusing on these core elements, I ensure your investment delivers measurable results, whether you’re starting fresh or leveling up. Let’s work together to create a plan that fits your needs and drives your business forward.
How much should I invest in marketing and advertising?
The amount a business should reinvest in marketing and advertising varies by industry, growth stage, and goals, with startups typically allocating 10-20% of revenue to build traction and established businesses spending 5-10% to maintain presence. For example, a new business might prioritize an SEO-optimized website and Google Business Profile, while an established one could focus on refining social media strategies.
Can you work with my budget?
No matter the size of your budget, I can help you make meaningful progress in your digital marketing. As the saying goes, eating an elephant starts with one bite at a time. I’ll assess where your business stands, understand your goals, and work closely with you to maximize every dollar. Whether you’re starting small with essential building blocks or ready to invest in a comprehensive strategy, I’ll tailor a plan that delivers the best possible results within your budget, ensuring every step moves you closer to success.
How long until I see results?
The timeline for seeing results from digital marketing varies because every situation is unique. Factors like your business’s current digital presence, industry, competition, budget, and the strategies implemented all play a role. For example, optimizing a Google Business Profile or social media pages can drive local visibility and engagement within weeks, especially if you’re targeting a specific audience. A well-optimized, mobile-friendly website with strong SEO might take 3-6 months to climb search rankings, though you could see early improvements in traffic or leads sooner with paid ads or targeted content.
Some businesses with a solid foundation may notice quicker wins—like increased clicks or conversions—within 1-2 months by refining existing assets. Startups building from scratch might need 6-12 months for a full digital strategy to gain traction, especially for organic growth. If you’ve been burned by poor prior work, fixing foundational issues (like a poorly designed site) could take a few months before results compound.
I assess your specific needs, goals, and starting point to provide a tailored estimate. By focusing on high-impact strategies—like an SEO-optimized website, accurate directory listings, and audience-driven social media—I aim to deliver measurable progress as quickly as possible, often with early indicators like increased traffic or inquiries within 1-3 months.
Can I write off my marketing and advertising expenses on my taxes?
These expenses are generally tax-deductible as ordinary and necessary business costs under IRS rules, covering digital ads, website development, and professional services like my marketing expertise. However, some costs (e.g., major website overhauls) may need to be capitalized, and proper documentation is essential. Every business is unique, so I recommend consulting an accountant to maximize deductions and tailoring a marketing plan to your budget for optimal results.
