What you don't pay for.

Most agency invoices have line items you didn't agree to. These are the things our invoices never have.

Account manager layer

You talk to the strategist. There is no AM. There is no "let me get back to you on that."

12-month lockouts

Month-to-month engagements. Leave whenever the value stops.

Status-email reporting

No activity recaps disguised as work. Reports are in revenue/pipeline terms.

Cookie-cutter strategy decks

Every strategy doc is named, signed, and has explicit kill criteria.

Setup fees over $1k

Onboarding is part of the engagement, not a separate invoice.

"Out of scope" surprises

Every deliverable is listed on the package before you buy. The card is the scope.

Common questions

Asked, answered.

Are these prices really fixed?
Yes. The price on each package is the flat monthly price you pay — no setup fees, no surprise invoices, no scope-based upcharges. Pick a tier, check out, and we get started.
Is there a contract?
Month-to-month, 30-day notice. We don't sell 12-month lockouts. Real work earns renewal — that's the only retention mechanism we use.
Which package is right for me?
Starter if you're building foundations and need momentum. Growth if you're ready to compound content, authority, and technical SEO together. Premium if you want maximum velocity and founder-led strategy. Not sure? Book an hour of SEO consulting at $200/hr and we'll point you to the right one.
Can I upgrade or downgrade later?
Anytime. Start on Starter and move up to Growth or Premium as you scale — or step back down. Month-to-month means you're never locked into the wrong tier.
Do the packages include PPC or social media?
SEO is the core of every package. PPC and social media management are available as clearly-priced add-ons on Growth and Premium — tell us what you need and we'll scope it.
Do you do performance pricing?
No. Performance pricing creates the wrong incentive — it pushes toward short-term tactics instead of long-term compound. You pay a flat price for the work and the strategy. The outcomes follow.
What if we're not a good fit?
We'll tell you before you buy. We refer out to people we trust for work that isn't our fit. Wrong fit, said plainly.

Strategy insight · Pricing

Why most agency pricing is designed to extract, not deliver.

Agency pricing models are an underrated tell. The structure of what you’re being charged — the lockouts, the hidden tiers, the per-seat charges, the surprise upcharges, the “strategic review” surcharges — reveals what the agency was built for. Most of it isn’t built for client outcomes. It’s built for agency LTV. So we did the opposite: three fixed monthly prices, posted in public, with the full scope listed on the card.

What’s actually broken in most agency pricing models

  1. The 12-month lockout. The standard 12-month minimum exists because the agency knows you’d churn at month four if you weren’t contractually trapped. Real confidence in the work doesn’t need a 12-month cage. Month-to-month creates the only accountability that matters — earn the renewal monthly, or lose it.
  2. Hidden tiers and surprise upcharges. “That’s not in scope.” “That’s a strategic project, not part of the package.” “Reporting customization is an additional engagement.” The base price is the appetizer; the real cost lands at month six, once you’ve invested too much to leave. Our packages list everything they include right on the card — the price you see is the price you pay.
  3. The sunk-cost engineering. Long onboardings, custom-built dashboards, “proprietary methodologies” that require quarterly retraining — all designed to make switching agencies feel like starting over. The longer you stay, the harder leaving becomes. That’s the model. That’s not an accident.

Questions operators actually ask about pricing

Why do agencies require 12-month contracts?

Because the unit economics only work if the average client stays past the point where they’d notice the work isn’t delivering. Agencies that genuinely believe in their work go month-to-month — they don’t need the lock. The lock exists for one reason: to extend revenue past the point where outcomes alone would justify it.

How is your pricing structured?

Three fixed monthly SEO packages: Starter at $1,500, Growth at $2,500, and Premium at $5,000. Each one lists its full scope on the card. There’s no tier negotiation, no scoping call required just to get a number, and no surprise invoices — you pick the package that fits where you are, check out, and we start. PPC and social media management are available as clearly-priced add-ons on Growth and Premium. Need one-off help instead? That’s SEO consulting at $200/hour.

What’s included vs. extra?

Everything listed on the package is included — content, technical SEO, on-page work, schema, internal linking, research, and the execution itself. The extras most agencies surprise-charge for (audits, content revisions, ad-hoc optimization) are part of the package. The only true add-ons are PPC and social media management, and those are priced up front. No nickel-and-diming.

Do you do performance-based pricing?

No — and we’d be skeptical of any SEO agency that claims to. Pure performance-based SEO models incentivize short-term tactics (paid links, PBN networks, thin programmatic content) that book performance and crater your domain authority a year later. A flat monthly price aligns the time horizon with the work.

What happens if I want to leave?

You give 30 days notice and we hand over everything — content drafts, technical documentation, GBP access, dashboards. You own the work product. We don’t hold accounts hostage, charge transfer fees, or threaten “lost rankings” if you go elsewhere. If we did good work, the asset transfers cleanly to whoever takes over next.

How transparent pricing actually works

  • Fixed monthly price. The number on the package is the number you pay. No setup fees over $1k, no surprise upcharges, no “strategic exit fees.”
  • Full scope on the card. Every deliverable in your package is listed before you buy. What’s included is included.
  • Month-to-month. 30-day cancellation. No lockouts, no surrender charges.
  • Clearly-priced add-ons. PPC and social media management are the only extras, and they’re quoted up front — never a surprise line item.
  • You own the assets. GBP access, content rights, documentation — all in your name, available immediately on request.
  • Founder-led work. Clint is in the account. No AM layer, no junior-strategist handoff.
  • Honest disqualification. If a package isn’t right for you, we’ll say so before you buy. Better to lose the sale than waste your money.

Who we’re a bad fit for

If you need someone to promise specific rankings, want the absolute cheapest option regardless of outcome, or are looking for an agency that will “just do the work” with zero strategic input — we’re not it. These packages are built for operators who want senior, founder-led SEO at a fixed, honest price.
