Every business needs different marketing help at different stages. Whether you need hands-on help or strategic guidance, choosing the right level of marketing support is crucial. I've made pricing clear and straightforward, with flexible options that match your team's needs and goals.
Marketing support isn't one-size-fits-all, despite what some may tell you. Some are ready to build in-house expertise, while others need hands-on help with day-to-day marketing. Some have established teams that need strategic guidance, while others are just starting to invest in marketing.
That's why I offer flexible service levels, from done-for-you execution to strategic consulting and team training. Each option comes with clear deliverables and transparent pricing, helping you choose the right support for your current needs. And as your business grows, these services can evolve with you.
How quickly do you need to see results? Faster transformation requires more intensive support and guidance, whether that's hands-on marketing help or accelerated team training.
Larger teams or more complex marketing needs often require additional coordination and support. I’ll consider your team size, marketing goals, and current capabilities when determining the right service level.
Your current marketing tools, team expertise, and processes impact what support you need. Whether you're starting from scratch or building on existing foundations, I’ll factor this into finding the right solution.
You need immediate lead flow or urgent marketing fixes
Your market is highly competitive or technically complex
You're building marketing capabilities from zero
Multiple teams need coordination (sales, product, operations)
You require extensive content creation or video production
Timeline is compressed for faster implementation
You have strong existing marketing foundations
Your team has basic marketing skills already
Timeline is flexible with no immediate urgency
Scope is focused on specific challenges vs. comprehensive overhaul
You're comfortable with some self-implementation between sessions
Your market has straightforward buyer journeys
Transparency matters when it comes to pricing. While every business needs different support, I want to be upfront about typical investment ranges. Most of my clients invest between £1,500 and £5,000 per month in marketing support.
This varies based on whether you need done-for-you marketing management, strategic guidance as a Fractional CMO, or focused team training. The right investment level depends on your current challenges and goals, which I'll help you determine during our initial discussion.
The market for marketing help varies wildly. Here's what drives those differences:
Large overhead: offices, account teams, multiple layers of management
Established brand reputation allowing higher pricing
Account managers and junior staff doing the actual work
Long-term retainer models with minimum 12-month commitments
Bloated processes and excessive meetings that increase billable hours
Often outsourcing work to junior staff or overseas teams
Limited strategic input; just execution without integration
Lack of proven systems or established frameworks
Building their portfolio and reputation
Template-based approaches with minimal customisation
Where I fit (£1,500-£5,000/month): I charge for proven expertise and strategic thinking, but keep costs reasonable by working lean, no fancy offices or account management layers.
You work directly with me, getting senior-level guidance without agency markup. You're not paying for overhead; you're investing in capability building and real results.
While upfront investment may feel higher, building internal capability reduces reliance on external support over time, dramatically lowering your lifetime marketing costs.
Monthly fees tell one story, but lifetime value tells another. When you hire a traditional agency, you're committing to ongoing costs indefinitely, often £3,000-£10,000+ per month with no end date. Over three years, that's £108,000-£360,000+ with no internal capability built. You're essentially renting marketing expertise that walks away the moment you stop paying.
My approach is different. Training programmes like In-House Sales and Marketing Mastery cost £2,000-£4,000 monthly for 18-24 months (£36,000-£96,000 total), but you graduate with complete independence.
No more agency fees. Your team owns the systems, skills, and strategy forever. Even done-for-you services focus on knowledge transfer, reducing long-term reliance on external support. While the initial investment requires commitment, the lifetime cost is significantly lower because you're building assets, not renting them.
Marketing investment has fundamentally shifted over the past decade. Ten years ago, agencies dominated because businesses had no choice; you needed specialists for SEO, paid ads, social media, and content creation. Monthly retainers of £5,000-£15,000 were standard, with most of that budget going toward execution rather than strategy.
Then came accessible tools like HubSpot, proven frameworks like the Endless Customers System, and AI-powered technology that democratised marketing. Suddenly, businesses could build internal capabilities at a fraction of traditional agency costs.
The pandemic accelerated this shift, with remote work making fractional expertise viable, and companies realised they didn't need expensive offices and account management layers.
Today's smart businesses invest in capability building rather than perpetual outsourcing. They're paying £2,000-£5,000/month for strategic guidance and training that creates independence, rather than £8,000-£12,000/month for agencies that create dependency.
The question isn't whether to invest in marketing, but whether to rent expertise indefinitely or build it internally. The lifetime cost difference is substantial.

Get instant priceA 25-person SaaS business investing £3,200/month in Fractional CMO services. Within 6 months, they have a clear content strategy, and aligned sales and marketing teams. After 12 months, they might hire an internal marketing manager who I train, then reduce their engagement to occasional consulting.
A professional services firm with 50 employees might invest in the In-House Sales and Marketing Mastery programme at £3,200/month for 18 months (£57,600 total). They would proceed to build a complete internal marketing team, ending their £5,000/month agency retainer (saving £90,000 over 18 months), and now handle all marketing independently.
A 10-person manufacturing company starting with Fractional Marketing Director services at £2,500/month. Over 8 months, they build up a content library, set up HubSpot, and train their operations manager to handle day-to-day marketing. Total investment: £20,000 for complete marketing foundation.

IMPACT+ Pro accounts for training (£75/month or £925/year per trainee)
Video equipment for content creation (budget £500-£2,000)

It depends on where you are now and where you want to be. If you have no marketing function, done-for-you execution makes sense. If you have a team needing direction, strategic guidance works better. If you want to build internal capability, training is the right path. During our initial chat, I'll help you determine the best fit based on your specific situation and goals.
Most services are month-to-month with 30 days' notice, except for training programmes which typically run 18-24 months. I don't believe in trapping clients in long contracts - if the work isn't delivering value, you should be able to leave. That said, meaningful marketing transformation takes time, so I typically recommend at least 6 months to see real results.
Absolutely. Many clients start with hands-on execution, then transition to strategic guidance as their internal team grows stronger. Or they begin with strategy, then add training for their team. Services are designed to evolve with your business, not lock you into one approach forever.
The main additional costs are technology-related: HubSpot licensing if you need it, HubSpot themes for website builds (£1,999), and IMPACT+ Pro accounts for training programmes (£75/month per trainee). I'm always transparent about these upfront. There are no hidden fees, surprise charges, or "oh by the way" costs.
Most services are billed monthly in advance via direct debit or bank transfer. Training programmes can be paid monthly or in quarterly instalments. One-off projects like workshops or website builds require a 50% deposit to start, with the balance due on completion. I'm flexible on payment terms for the right clients.
It's worth it when:
It's probably not worth it when:
During our chat, I'll be honest about whether my services make sense for where you are right now - sometimes the answer is "not yet," and that's perfectly fine.
A full-time marketing manager in the UK costs £35,000-£50,000+ per year (plus benefits, holidays, and training). That's £2,900-£4,200+ per month for one person with one skill set. With fractional services, you get senior-level strategic thinking at a fraction of the cost, without the overhead. Plus, you can scale up or down as needed rather than being locked into a full-time salary.
Let's start with a friendly chat about your business needs. I'll help you understand which service level makes the most sense for where you are today, and we can discuss pricing options that fit your budget.
