Real Marketing Support, Start-up Friendly Price

We have kept this simple on purpose. One package. One price. Up to 12 hours of marketing per month. A clear set of services you can draw from each month, with expert guidance to make sure they are working together.

Most startups know they need marketing. The problem is finding support that fits the budget, the pace and the uncertainty that comes with building something from scratch.

Startup pro exists for exactly that moment, when you need proper marketing expertise behind you, but a full agency retainer or in house hire is out of reach.

What's Included

Every Startup Pro retainer gives you access to the following services each month, your dedicated marketing contact works with you to prioritise where to focus your resource, so you are never wasting effort in the wrong place.
