Multiple Vendors Fragmented
More contacts. More handoffs. Siloed optimization.

More contacts. More handoffs. Siloed optimization.
Salaries, recruiting, management and capacity risk.
Communication gaps, delays and disconnected strategy.
Most agencies hit a growth ceiling because they fall into one of these operational resource drains. You already know which one is yours.
One partner for search, another for social, a third for programmatic, a fourth for SEO. You are not running a campaign anymore. You are herding cats, and you are doing it for free.
You land the account of the year. Then you do the math on staffing it, and the win starts to look like a hiring plan you cannot afford to get wrong.
The sticker price is the pitch. The coordination tax is the product, and it lands on your account managers instead of on the invoice.
Unlike isolated freelancers or distant offshore teams, Conduit operates in specialized, cohesive pods. Your paid media, programmatic, and SEO/AEO/GEO teams communicate internally under one unified strategy, driving multi-channel ROI rather than looking at metrics in a vacuum.
No discovery maze, no custom quote you cannot check. The plan is the same for a two-person shop and a thirty-person agency.
One $845 monthly Connection Retainer at the agency level. It covers unlimited accounts, your Account Manager and Relationship Manager, the Agency Hub, Slack channel, playbooks and training.
Use the published rate card and the calculator below to model the account. Bring us a live opportunity and we build a Strategic Recommendation covering channels, budget split, audiences and creative for you to pitch.
Submit the IO, the pod builds and launches, and the white-labeled dashboard goes live. Add accounts, channels and services without adding headcount, tools or notice periods.
Forcing every service into one pricing unit is how agencies end up overpaying for one thing to subsidize another. Each Conduit model follows the economics of the work being delivered.
$845 per month, charged once at the agency level for the partnership infrastructure, not once per account.
A flat fee at small budgets, then a management percentage that steps down as the account’s aggregate spend grows.
One net CPM per channel, inclusive of platform expense, targeting expense and Conduit management.
Fixed monthly pricing against a defined quarterly deliverable set, so scope and cost are both predictable.
The Connection Retainer is charged once per month at the agency level and covers unlimited accounts.

Everything we charge is published on this page. Nothing is behind a form, including the rate card itself and the calculator below.
All monthly paid media spend across an account’s channels aggregates to a single rate. The budget you order is what runs in the platform. The management fee bills on top.
| Monthly paid media budget | Management rate |
|---|---|
| $500,000+ | 4.50% |
| $400,000 to $499,999 | 5.00% |
| $300,000 to $399,999 | 5.50% |
| $200,000 to $299,999 | 6.50% |
| $100,000 to $199,999 | 7.75% |
| $50,000 to $99,999 | 9.50% |
| $20,000 to $49,999 | 10.99% |
| $12,000 to $19,999 | 11.99% |
| $8,000 to $11,999 | 12.99% |
| $4,000 to $7,999 | 14.99% |
| $2,000 to $3,999 1 to 2 channels | $599/mo |
| Under $2,000 1 channel | $399/mo |
Spend is aggregated across the client’s managed channels before the rate is applied. A more connected multi-channel prescription is rewarded, not penalized.
Priced as two separate $5,000 accounts, the same media would sit in the 14.99% tier and cost $1,499.00. Same spend, same channels, $200 a month back to your margin for running it as one connected account.
Impressions are the deliverable. You order impressions (or sends), the campaign paces to them, and you are billed on the net CPM.
| Channel | Net CPM | Monthly minimum |
|---|---|---|
| Display | $3.99 | 200k impressions |
| Video | $14.99 | 50k impressions |
| $14.99 | 50k sends | |
| Audio | $24.99 | 50k impressions |
| OTT | $24.99 | 50k impressions |
The published CPM is what Conduit charges you, inclusive of platform expense, targeting expense and Conduit’s management fee. There is no second invoice.
Setup and launch fees apply the same way they do on paid media: $259 per new channel on an account, $199 per new campaign on an existing account.
Quarterly execution, mapped by month, billed monthly. Three-month quarterly commitments. A one-time $259 launch fee per account covers the baseline audits.

18 additional GBP posts quarterly: $69/month. Five additional keywords in the local heatmap: $29/month. Ten additional quarterly citations: $69/month. Review monitoring and responding: $69/month. Additional location beyond the one included: $259/month.
One additional long-form piece per quarter: $149/month. Three additional blogs per quarter: $149/month. Three additional site hours per quarter: $149/month.
Accounts looking to invest more than $2,499 a month start with a one-time Custom Audit. We audit, then build two custom options from what we find. The agency and client decide whether to proceed and which option to take.
A quarterly cadence removes the stop-start pattern that makes monthly SEO underperform. Work is planned in focused sprints, mapped by month, and billed monthly: predictable cost, higher-impact output, fewer bottlenecks.

Launch work is real work: tracking implementation, targeting configuration, technical rollout and the strategic planning that sets up everything after it. It happens once.
Keeping it out of the recurring fee means your monthly cost stays tied to recurring work, and your client’s ongoing retainer is not quietly padded to recover a setup you already paid for.
Add real accounts and real budgets, and the numbers update as you type. When you want a copy or a conversation, ask for one.
Add as many accounts as you like. The $845 Connection Retainer is applied once at the agency level, not once per client, so the more you add, the better the blended math gets.
Estimates use the published Q4 2026 rate card and cover recurring monthly cost. One-time setup and launch fees are published in the rate card above and are not included here. Programmatic minimums are enforced automatically. Final pricing is confirmed on the IO.
Salary is the smallest honest version of this number. Load in benefits, tools and the hours that never reach a client, then look at what you actually get for it.
Deliberately conservative defaults. Every field is editable, because the comparison is only worth what the inputs are.
Productive hours assume 2,080 paid hours per FTE at the utilization you set. The hours you pay for and the hours that reach a client are not the same number.
Five real costs are set at zero here, because they are harder to pin down and easy to argue with. We would rather understate the comparison than pad it. Your actual in-house number is higher than what is shown above.
At enough volume an in-house team can be the right answer, and we will tell you so. The question is whether you have the predictable volume to carry fixed cost, and the headcount to keep real specialization alive on every platform.
A pricing page should remove uncertainty, not create another reason to book a call.
No. It is charged once per month at the agency level and covers unlimited accounts. Account-level charges, including media management, programmatic, SEO/AEO/GEO, dashboards and one-time launch fees, are separate and published above.
Into the platform. The budget you put on the IO is exactly what runs. Order $5,000 of Meta and the full $5,000 runs in the platform, with the $749.50 management fee (14.99%) billing on top of it.
All eligible paid media spend on the account aggregates before the rate is applied, so a client running $5,000 on Google and $5,000 on Meta is priced at the $10,000 tier (12.99%), not at two separate $5,000 tiers.
Everything. The published net CPM includes platform expense, targeting expense and Conduit’s management fee. You set your own client-facing CPM, and the spread is your margin.
Because launching well is non-recurring work: tracking implementation, targeting configuration, technical rollout and strategic planning. Charging it once keeps the recurring fee tied to recurring work. $259 per new channel on an account, $199 per new campaign on an existing account.
Deliverables run on a quarterly sprint cadence mapped month by month, which produces higher-impact work than stop-start monthly SEO. Quarterly plans are broken down and billed monthly, on three-month commitments.
The Connection Retainer is billed monthly. Paid media and programmatic run against the IOs you submit. SEO/AEO/GEO carries the three-month quarterly commitment described above, because that is the cadence the work runs on.
Not from us. Every deliverable, dashboard and document is white-labeled to your brand. We work exclusively with agencies and we do not sell to your clients.
It is an accurate estimate at published rates, the same math we would run. Final pricing is confirmed on the IO once channels, budgets and scope are set.
Model your portfolio in two minutes. Then talk to someone who has priced a thousand of them.
Your numbers are already on the page. This just puts a copy in your inbox and lets us follow up once if you want to talk it through.
Leave at zero if there is no SEO on this account.
