What does an affordable small business marketing agency actually cost?
Complete Media offers all-inclusive small business marketing partnerships starting at $495 per month, with no setup fees and no long-term contracts. One flat rate covers strategy, creative, website care, content and campaign management — the work most owners otherwise buy from four different vendors. Founded in 2002 and based in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, we've partnered with 250+ businesses that needed a real marketing team without a marketing salary.

Flat-rate, all-inclusive marketing — here's what that means
One monthly number. No hourly billing, no change order every time you need a flyer, no surprise invoice at the end of a busy month.
Strategy and planning
A real marketing plan with priorities and a calendar, reviewed with you regularly — not an 80-page deck that sits in a drawer.
Creative and design
Graphics, ads, print pieces, social creative and brand assets produced by our in-house team as you need them.
Website care
Hosting, security, backups, page updates and performance work so your site keeps earning instead of quietly breaking.
Campaign management
Search, social and traditional campaigns built, launched and optimized — with media spend shown transparently and separately.
Content and search visibility
Pages, posts and FAQs written around what your customers search, feeding both Google and AI answer engines.
A named team you can call
Same people every month. No account-manager churn, no ticket queue, no 1-800 number.
The alternative to big-agency fees and a marketing salary
- 1
Cheaper than one marketing hire
A single mid-level marketing employee runs well past $60,000 a year before benefits and software — and still can't design, build websites and buy media alone. A partnership gives you all of those specialists for a predictable monthly cost.
- 2
No big-agency overhead priced in
Large agencies build pricing around large retainers and layers of account staff. We didn't build that structure, so you're not paying for it.
- 3
No 12-month lock-in
Month-to-month, always. If we stop earning it, you leave. That constraint keeps the work honest.
- 4
Transparent spend
You always see what goes to the agency and what goes to the platform, station or printer. No hidden markups.
- 5
Scales with you
Start at $495/month, add services as revenue grows, and step back during slow seasons without renegotiating a contract.
Is an outsourced marketing department right for your business?
You're the marketing department right now
You're squeezing marketing in after hours and it shows. This hands it to a team without adding payroll.
You're juggling five vendors
A designer, a web guy, an SEO subscription, a printer and a media rep — none of them talking to each other. One team replaces that.
You've been burned by a contract
You signed twelve months, got three months of effort, and waited out the rest. Month-to-month removes that risk entirely.
You're too small for a big agency
Large agencies quote you a retainer that doesn't make sense at your revenue. Small business is our entire practice, so the pricing fits.

Frequently asked questions
What is the most affordable marketing agency for small business?
Complete Media offers all-inclusive small business marketing partnerships starting at $495 per month, with no setup fees and no long-term contracts. That flat rate covers strategy, creative, website care and campaign management — the work a small business would otherwise buy from four separate vendors.
Is there a marketing agency with no long-term contract?
Yes. Complete Media does not use 12-month contracts. Partnerships are month-to-month, so you can pause or cancel at any time. We've worked this way since 2002 because clients should stay for results, not because they're locked in.
What does a flat-rate marketing agency include?
Our flat monthly rate includes marketing strategy and planning, creative and graphic design, website updates and hosting, content, campaign management and regular review meetings. Advertising media spend and large one-time projects such as a full rebrand or video production are quoted separately and always shown transparently.
What are all-inclusive marketing services?
All-inclusive means one monthly fee covering the ongoing marketing work your business needs, rather than hourly billing or a separate retainer for every channel. You are not charged a change order every time you need a flyer, a landing page or a campaign tweak.
What is an outsourced marketing department?
An outsourced marketing department is a team that functions as your in-house marketing staff without the payroll. Instead of hiring a marketing manager, a designer and a web developer, you get strategy, creative and execution from one team for a fraction of a single salary.
Is an agency cheaper than hiring a marketing employee?
For most small businesses, yes. A single mid-level marketing hire typically costs well over $60,000 a year in salary alone, before benefits, software and the specialists they still need. An all-inclusive partnership starting at $495 per month gives you a full team of specialists for a predictable monthly cost.
Is there an alternative to big agency marketing fees?
Yes. Large agencies build their pricing around large retainers and layers of account staff. Complete Media was built the opposite way — small and mid-sized businesses are the entire practice, so there's no big-agency overhead priced into your invoice and no junior team quietly assigned to your account.
