What do I need?
Website
Complexity: A simple brochure website for a local bakery might cost $1,000-$3,000, while an e-commerce platform for a clothing store could be $5,000-$10,000+.
Features: Consider a business card or brochure style website for budget-friendliness. E-commerce, sales funnels, chat bots and more increase the cost. Be sure any additional features add value to your bottom line.
Maintenance: Once launched, most customers do not update their websites. If you need to update contact information, please reach out immediately. If you want to update your website consider the purposes and we can create a plan based on your needs. Some customers prefer a fully managed website with regular maintenance. We offer monthly packages to meet these needs.
Monthly Marketing
Target audience: Reaching a wider audience through paid advertising might require a higher budget compared to organic reach through social media and local SEO.
Marketing channels: Paid advertising (Google Ads, social media ads), organic social media marketing, email marketing, local SEO, content marketing - each has its own budget needs.
Desired results: Are you aiming for brand awareness, website traffic, lead generation, or direct sales?
Each goal might require different investment levels.
Industry Benchmark
For websites, a starting point around $2,000-$5,000 might be suitable for many small businesses.
For monthly marketing, the 7-10% of gross revenue rule of thumb is often cited, but 3-5% is more common for smaller businesses. However, this can vary widely depending on industry and goals.
Tips for Small Businesses
Start with a realistic budget: Don't overspend on your initial website, prioritize functionality and responsiveness.
Focus on a few key marketing channels: Don't spread yourself too thin. Start with channels you can manage effectively and track results.
Track your results: Measure the impact of your website and marketing efforts to adjust your budget and strategy as needed.
