Marketing for local businesses, priced upfront

No. Your ad spend is paid directly to Google and Meta, on your own billing, and it's separate from our fee. Local Services Ads lead costs are paid to Google too. Our monthly fee covers the work: setup, management, optimization, and reporting. Your proposal lists the fee and a suggested ad budget side by side, so you see the full monthly cost before you decide.

Each plan manages ad spend up to a set amount: $3,000/mo on Local Launch, $8,000/mo on Digital Traction, and $15,000/mo on Sales Acceleration. If you spend more than that, the monthly fee adds 10% of the spend above the cap. For example, $4,000/mo of ad spend on Local Launch adds $100/mo. À-la-carte Google Ads and Meta ads each manage up to $3,000/mo.

The first weeks take the most work, and each package card lists exactly what its setup includes. On Local Launch ($800), we build your conversion landing page, set up Google Tag Manager, GA4, and call and conversion tracking, build your Google Ads account, and optimize your Google Business Profile with a name, address, and phone (NAP) audit. Digital Traction ($1,200) adds Meta Business Suite, the Meta Pixel and Conversions API, your audiences, your Local Services Ads profile, listings on the top 15 local directories, review requests, missed-call text-back, and your US texting registration. Sales Acceleration ($1,800) adds your CRM and contact import, AI chat, automations, a database cleanup, and your first reactivation campaign. The one-time fee pays for that work, so your monthly fee goes to managing and improving what's live. À-la-carte services carry a $297 setup per monthly service ($497 for Google Ads and Meta ads together).

Most accounts go live within about 2 weeks. Text messaging turns on once US carrier registration (A2P 10DLC) is approved. Local Services Ads also depend on Google's own verification, which can take longer in some categories.

Yes. Every service in the plan builder is available on its own, with a $297 one-time setup per monthly service. Google Ads and Meta ads together cost $1,197/mo instead of $1,394. Landing pages and websites are one-time prices with no setup. When your picks overlap with a package, the builder shows you whether the package costs less.

Every package starts with a 3-month term. That's enough time to set up tracking, launch, gather real lead data, and make the first round of improvements. At the end, you'll know your cost per lead and which channels are working. After that, your plan is month-to-month.

Yes. After the first 3 months, your plan is month-to-month. If it isn't working for you, you can stop. The terms are spelled out in your proposal before you sign anything.

You do. Your ad accounts, Google Business Profile, website and landing pages, and your data stay yours. If you leave, they stay with you.

Yes, within fair use. Every plan includes fair use of up to 1,000 text messages and 500 call minutes a month. Beyond that, usage is billed at cost, with no markup. One-time carrier registration fees are covered by the setup.

We're opening our US client roster and want our first case studies to come from businesses that grow with us. There are 5 spots, and the bigger the package, the bigger the discount: 10% off Local Launch ($717/mo instead of $797/mo), 15% off Digital Traction ($1,272/mo instead of $1,497/mo), or 20% off Sales Acceleration ($1,997/mo instead of $2,497/mo). The discount applies to your first 3 months, and you get 50% off the one-time setup ($400 instead of $800 on Local Launch, $600 instead of $1,200 on Digital Traction, or $900 instead of $1,800 on Sales Acceleration). In exchange, you agree to let us publish your results as a case study and to give us a testimonial, written or on video. Everything else works like any other package, including the 3-month starting term.

Google sets the price per lead by service category and location, so it varies from one market to the next. You pay that lead cost directly to Google, separate from our fee. Reviewing your leads every week and disputing invalid ones with Google is part of our Local Services Ads management. Your free marketing audit checks whether Local Services Ads are available for your category and area, and what to expect before you spend anything.

Yes. Add Google Local Services Ads to Local Launch for $200/mo, so Local Launch plus Local Services Ads runs $997/mo. There's no extra setup fee: your LSA profile and verification support are included. Digital Traction already includes Local Services Ads, along with Meta ads, review requests, and missed-call text-back. Either way, lead costs are paid directly to Google.

Yes. In the US, business text messaging has to be registered with the carriers under a program called A2P 10DLC. It applies to review requests, missed-call text-back, and speed-to-lead texts, which start with Digital Traction. We handle the registration with you as part of its setup, the one-time carrier fees are covered, and texting turns on once it's approved.

Yes. Studyu is based in Brazil, with a branch office in Lisbon, Portugal, and we serve clients in Brazil and Portugal. Our team works remotely across time zones. The prices on this page are in US dollars. Some services, like Local Services Ads, are only available in certain countries and categories, and your free audit tells you what's available where you are.

Start with your goal. To get found on Google, Local Launch covers Google Ads, your Google Business Profile, and call tracking, and you can add Local Services Ads for $200/mo. To be everywhere your customers look, Digital Traction adds Local Services Ads, Meta ads on Facebook and Instagram, review requests, and missed-call text-back. If leads are coming in but follow-up is slow, Sales Acceleration adds the CRM, AI chat, automation, and a live dashboard, so you never lose a lead. Not sure? Use the plan builder above, or get the free marketing audit. It ends with a recommendation, and it's fine if that's just one à-la-carte service.

Because scope changes the work. The number of locations, service areas, campaigns, and how much ad spend we manage all affect the fee. Your proposal shows the exact number before you commit.
