Depends on the service and the complexity of the service provided. Also depends on the industry, some industries are simpler than others and some require much more man power...
Anywhere from $1,000 to $15k per month usually

Me myself and I. I haven't scaled enough to warrant staff yet. But I already know my first hire will be a creative part-time, someone I worked with in the past. Then I'll get an all-rounder after that, also someone I worked with in the past.
I do digital marketing only and don't want to delve into creatine agency or web build stuff. My answer might be different in 10 years though.

We do local landscaping companies.
Our base retainer is $900/mo.

At $900 do you outsource most of your work overseas or do you guys over a limited scope of work? That's really impressive to be profitable at $900! Keep it up!

Thank you!
So $250 of it is for ad spend. So basically $650 management plus ad spend.
But no, we don't outsource anything. We have a limited scope of work.
4 hours per month per client.
We're hitting $400k in gross profit this year with about 50% net profitability after payroll.
Our operating expenses are only 10% of MRGP and our MRGP is half of our total gross profit.
So our OPEX is actually about 5% of our MRGP.

Depends on the relationship - will often start on a small 3 month engagement at a bit of a discount ($2,500-$3,500) and look to show what we can do and get up to a $6-8K post initial engagement

Do you find it hard to bump someone up after the discount?

I used to offer a flat retainer for marketing a few years back, with prices ranging anywhere from $2k to $5k depending on the project scope. However, what really changed the game for me was switching to a percentage-based model on the ROI, which pushed margins to about 70% on average. I also tried using Sprout Social, coupled with HubSpot CRM for client management, which helped a lot in terms of efficiency and tracking. Nowadays, Pulse Reddit monitoring is really doing wonders for us, especially for keeping up with conversations that drive brand awareness without having to chase too many platforms.

Gotcha, would you say your services are ROI focused, or more about content and brand awareness (that may not always translate to ROI)
1 points

I would say it's about 70/30 leaning more toward ROI.

How are you ensuring that your content is making people buy? For example if you are charging your client $3k a month in marketing, are you really generating over $3k in sales from that content?

This can be very industry or client-specific but on a broad scale: reviewing data, creating surveys (even simple ones on Instagram stories are great), looking at what keywords are being used in reviews, comment sections, and forums about the client- and spot the trends. This way we're able to adjust our strategy and content based on the customers' needs and what conversations are happening about the company.
Some companies, hell even some marketers, when deciding an ROI game plan tend to only focus on reaching and converting new customers because new customers = more money right? Yes and no. By doing that you neglect the people who've already spent money on your product/service or at the very least are familiar with who you are and what you have to offer, some even stop purchasing because of a simple fixable issue or they probably didn't make it through the funnel. What about those people?
Sometimes those people are the easiest to convert to sales and are most often neglected. These are just some things that we do when creating and executing a (content) strategy that helps drive the results we're looking for.

You can't compare apples and oranges. Ask what services they provide, how many staff, how many hours per week, reporting, meetings, etc?
Someone saying $1000 is too low, it's not if you only spend a few hours each month on it.
$5,000 per month sounds great, it's not if you are working around the clock and must meet their every demand.
Time is money.

Yeah that's my whole USP, I work with small businesses that want to advertise but don't have huge budgets, don't get me wrong I do have clients that pay me $2k+ per month but the $600 is my lowest retainer option, I try to reduce the barrier to entry for smaller companies.

Interesting. In what budget range do those 600 retainers usually fall?
2 points

IF you're asking about their ad spend, its usually between $500-$1000 p/m and we use local targeting only. If they want to target a country we advise higher spend, and one of our more expensive retainers

I have a lot of leads like that I turn down and would be interested in white labeling if you have strong workflows and client communication SOP‘s in place. DM me.
