Premium · ongoing engagement

Marketing Retainer.

Ongoing marketing execution for businesses that need consistent improvement without hiring in-house or dealing with agency bloat.

From £750 / month inc VAT · 3-month minimum, then rolling

What this is

A larger ongoing engagement than Monthly Growth Support.

Mode runs two ongoing offers. Monthly Growth Support at £295/month inc VAT is light execution · two to three discrete tasks a month, sharp scope, in and out. Marketing Retainer sits above it. Larger queue, more strategic input, more capacity to run campaigns and rebuild parts of the site as the work demands it.

It's the right tier when a single £295/month engagement runs out of room and an in-house hire is still 6–12 months away.

Where this sits

Two ongoing tiers. Pick the one that matches your queue.

Both are scoped per business, not packaged. Both cancel with 30 days' notice after the 3-month minimum. Ad spend is always paid by you, direct to the platform.

Messaging and offer refinement · sharper positioning, tighter offers, clearer next-step CTAs.

05

Content planning · a sequenced editorial line, not random one-off posts.

Ongoing implementation queue · always something in the queue, always something shipping.

09

Email support and a monthly review · scheduled check-in, not daily standups.

What you don't get

Honest about scope before we start.

A retainer pays for execution, not unlimited capacity. The list opposite is intentionally outside scope. Anything on it can be quoted as a discrete add-on, in writing, before any work starts.

  • Unlimited requests
  • Full-time availability
  • Daily meetings
  • Media spend (you pay platforms direct)
  • Ad spend included in the fee
  • Large website rebuilds (those are quoted as Authority Build or Website Rebuild)
  • Full SEO campaign unless scoped explicitly
  • Graphic design on demand
  • Emergency support guarantee
  • Unused time rollover between months
Best fit

For businesses with a queue, not a project.

Marketing Retainer is the right shape when there's enough monthly work that one-off sprints aren't keeping up · but a senior hire is still 6 to 12 months out. You want a steady, named operator on the queue every month rather than rebuying execution each time.

  • Businesses with a site already live
  • Businesses running active campaigns
  • Businesses that need monthly execution capacity
  • Founders and operators who need senior marketing support but aren't ready to hire in-house
  • Teams that have outgrown a £295/month Monthly Growth Support engagement
