| Plan | Month-to-month | Billed annually | Who it suits |

| Growth | $1,999 | $1,499 | Core digital marketing for an established trades business |

Nobody signs a long-term contract: you pay month by month and give 30 days' notice to stop. Annual billing gives the lower rate. The full, current description of each plan is on the Trades.Agency pricing page. If anything there differs from this page, that page is the reference.
What drives the cost for a Durham contractor
The plan fee is only part of what you'll spend. Four things shape your total:
- How many towns you target. Two Clarington communities need far less work than all eight Durham municipalities.
- How competitive those towns are. Pickering and Ajax compete with Toronto firms, so ads cost more per click and SEO takes longer. Scugog, Uxbridge and Brock usually cost less to win.
- Ad spend. Separate from the plan, and set from your own break-even cost per lead. Our ad budget guide shows how to calculate it.
- Your website. If it needs rebuilding, that's an extra cost on Growth, discounted on Elite, and included on Enterprise.
A worked example
Here's how one hypothetical contractor might think it through. Replace the numbers with your own.
- A renovation firm based in Oshawa wants more basement jobs in Whitby and Courtice.
- Average job: $35,000. Gross margin: 30%, or $10,500 per job.
- They win one in four qualified quotes, so each qualified lead is worth about $2,600 in gross margin.
- They choose the Growth plan billed annually ($1,499/month plus HST) and set aside $2,500/month in ad spend.
- Total monthly marketing: roughly $4,000 before tax.
If that produces even two extra signed jobs a month, it adds about $21,000 in gross margin against $4,000 in cost. If it produces none after a fair test, the month-to-month terms mean they can stop. The point is not that these figures are typical, but that you can check the logic before signing anything.
How to choose a plan
- Choose Growth if you're a single-location contractor focused on a few Durham towns and need local SEO, reviews and one paid channel.
- Choose Elite if you want several channels at once, cover more of the region, or need a new website and want the 50% design discount.
- Choose Enterprise if you run multiple crews or divisions, want a dedicated team, and need a new website built as part of the plan.
When in doubt, start smaller. It's easier to add towns and channels once the first ones are paying than to cut back a plan that was too ambitious. The services overview explains what each channel does.
What sits outside the plan fee
- Ad spend, which is billed by the platform to an account in your name, so you can see every dollar.
- Website builds on the Growth plan, quoted separately from the monthly fee.
- Your own time, mostly answering enquiries quickly and sending job photos. It's the cost owners forget, and it matters more than any line item.
One thing that costs nothing: the first 30-minute consultation, for eligible trades businesses.
You'll also keep everything you pay for: your website, domain, Google Business Profile, ad accounts and content stay in your name, as explained on the about page.
