Sentinel Creative Marketing publishes its prices. Growth packages start at $1,650 a month, billed monthly, and every service page carries its own starting figure — so you can budget before you ever speak to anyone.
Growth packages start at $1,650 a month. There are three tiers — Essentials at $1,650/mo, Momentum at $3,450/mo and Market Leader at $5,750/mo — all quoted as starting-at figures and billed monthly.
Individual services can also be bought on their own, and every service page shows a starting figure for that service. Exact pricing depends on scope and comes back with your quote.
Because hiding the number wastes everybody's time. An agency that will not give you a price until you have sat through two calls is usually pricing you rather than pricing the work.
Published pricing means you can decide whether SCM is in your range before you spend an hour on a discovery call, and it means the number does not move depending on how your business looks on paper.
Monthly. You are invoiced for the month ahead, and the scope for that month is agreed in writing before it starts.
One-time projects — a build, a migration, an audit — are quoted separately and invoiced on their own schedule rather than folded into a retainer where you cannot see them.
Work is billed monthly and you can stop with notice. There is no two-year lock-in, which is still common in this industry and is a long time to be stuck with a decision that turned out wrong.
Worth being straight about the trade-off: technical SEO, content and GEO do not produce a readable signal in thirty days. Month to month gives you the freedom to leave — it does not shorten how long the work takes to show. If a specific build suits a longer term, that can be arranged; it is never the default.
Give notice and the engagement ends. No automatic renewal, no exit fee.
Everything built during the engagement is yours and stays yours — the site, the content, the accounts, the list, the documentation.
It means the published figure is the floor for that tier, and the final number depends on scope — how many industries or service lines you need pages and messaging built for, how many locations need local SEO, and how much ad spend is under management.
A single-location business with one service line pays the starting price. A business with five locations and five distinct buyer types is a larger build, and the quote says so before you sign rather than after.
Yes. Every service has its own page and can be bought on its own — an audit, a page rebuild, a messaging playbook, an assessment tool, a case study. Each service page shows where its pricing starts and which packages include it.
A one-time deep technical audit is the most common starting point for businesses that want to see how SCM works before committing to anything ongoing.
The Launch Sprint is an optional $6,500 one-time build that front-loads the foundation work — the full set of industry page rebuilds plus the hub that ties them together — instead of phasing it across a quarter. It is optional — the phased build gets you to the same place.
It earns its place when you need the whole foundation live at once rather than arriving a piece at a time. Ask about how it is credited against a longer engagement.
No. Management fees and ad spend are separate, and SCM never marks up media. Ad spend is billed directly to you by the platform, so you see exactly what was spent.
Paid search and social management covers up to $10,000 a month in ad spend. Above that, management is quoted on the excess.
Yes — committing to a longer term or prepaying is worth asking about at the scoping stage, and it is the main place the math moves in your favor. It is offered, never required.
The free quote, which costs nothing. After that, the cheapest paid starting points are a single service — email marketing is the cheapest one — or a one-time deep technical audit if you want a documented picture of what is wrong before committing to anything recurring. Both carry a starting figure on their service page.
The things that sit outside a package price are: ad spend paid directly to the platforms, additional Google Business Profile locations, third-party software your business chooses to run (CRM, email platform, scheduling tool), and any deliverable outside the agreed scope — which gets quoted before work starts, never after.
