PRICING
Setup, then a monthly retainer

We set your team up.
Then we run it with you.

We install a Hermes-based AI marketing team for your business, then manage it on a retainer. A$3,000 setup, then A$1,000 a month on the base scope — A$5,000 and A$1,500 for the wider scope. Running costs, the cell hosting and the AI model use, are billed at cost on top.

Minimum term 3 months. Prices are in Australian dollars and include GST — the setup, the retainer and the at-cost running costs. GST is calculated out of each amount, never added on top.

Includes every base workflow. The wider scope — more ad accounts, more message channels, or a booking/CRM link — is A$5,000 setup, then A$1,500 / month.

PRICING · WHERE YOUR MONEY GOES

Two streams. Never mixed.

Agencies fold their fees and your ad money into one blurry invoice. Here they never touch: the retainer pays for the system we run, and your ad budget goes straight to Google and Meta — from your own account, capped at what you choose.

  • The retainer is fixed — A$1,000 or A$1,500 a month, our work only
  • Running costs — hosting and model use — are billed at cost, never marked up
  • Ad money never passes through us — no margin on your ad dollars
WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU

"We blew the budget chasing a good week" is structurally impossible — the team can't raise its own limits, the retainer can't grow mid-term, and the running-cost line is your own usage at cost.

The comparison

Two invoices for the same month.

Put a typical agency retainer next to an Inhouse Marketing month — the difference isn't the number, it's whether you can see through it. Illustrative comparison; agency terms vary.
