Pricing

Honest pricing.
No surprises.

Every engagement runs three months and starts with strategy, a proper deck and analysis before we post a single thing. Clear prices, clear scope, and the part that actually drives results funded first.

How engagements work

Strategy first. Always.

The cheapest retainers skip strategy and just post. We don't. Month one buys you a real plan, then we build on it.

Month 1

Strategy Sprint

We audit where you are, study your competitors and audience, and build your content pillars, channel plan, 90-day roadmap and KPIs, delivered as a proper deck and analysis that's yours to keep.

Deck + analysis deliverable
Months 2–3

Execution

We build and run it at your tier, content, community, and reporting, optimising as real numbers come in. The strategy makes every post pull in the same direction.

Build & run
Month 4+

After the three-month minimum it's month-to-month. Stay as long as it's working; leave any time with 30 days' notice. No long lock-in, the strategy-first start already de-risks it.

All prices in CAD, billed monthly. *Paid social: management is included on Scale (an add-on on other tiers); ad spend is always billed separately, a flat fee for small budgets or ~15–20% of spend above that. Prices are starting points; we'll confirm exact scope on your call.

Not ready for three months?

Start with just the Strategy Sprint.

Get the full strategy deck and analysis as a one-time project ($9,000 for larger, multi-brand organizations). If you continue into a full engagement within 30 days, we credit 100% of it toward your first month, so you only ever pay for strategy once.

Defined outcomes, fixed fees

For when you want a specific result, not an ongoing relationship.

AI Enablement Sprint

From $2,500

We set up your AI marketing workflow the honest way, content systems, repurposing pipelines, and automations, plus a plain-English playbook on what AI should and shouldn't touch, and training for your team. Working systems, not slideware.

Fractional Marketing Lead

From $4,000/mo

Senior, social-first marketing leadership for businesses that can't justify a full-time CMO. Embedded in your rhythm, owning direction, KPIs, and team alignment. Honest about scope: brand and content leadership, not enterprise demand-gen.

Launch / Campaign Sprint

From $5,000

A focused 4–8 week push for a product launch, event, or season, strategy, creative, and execution in one defined package, with a clear start and finish. No retainer required.

Paid Brand Audit

From $1,500

The deeper, against-your-live-data version of our free Health Check. A clear-eyed read of what's working, what isn't, and where the quick wins are, the gaps are usually bigger than people expect, and so is the upside.

Good to know

Questions, answered

Why does every engagement start with strategy?

Because publishing without a plan is the single most common way marketing budgets get wasted. Month one buys you a real strategy, so months two and three actually compound instead of just filling a calendar.

Is the strategy month an extra fee?

No. Month one is simply spent on strategy at your tier's normal rate. You're not paying more, you're spending the first month on the thing that makes the rest work.

What happens after three months?

It becomes month-to-month. Stay as long as it's delivering; leave any time with 30 days' notice. We'd rather earn the next month than lock you into a year.

Why do you show your prices when most agencies don't?

Honesty is the whole point of Clavis. Hiding prices wastes everyone's time. These are real starting points, we'll confirm exact scope together on a call.

How does paid advertising spend work?

Management and ad spend are always separate line items. You keep full visibility and control of your budget, we never bury ad spend inside the retainer.
