Custom Packages BUILT AROUND WHAT YOU ACTUALLY NEED.
Our monthly marketing packages give us a proven starting point, not a rigid box.
We determine what your business needs, confirm your budget and customize the scope accordingly. That allows us to build the right combination of strategy, content, campaigns, creative and execution without adding services simply to fill a package.
The result is a monthly marketing system built around your business, your internal resources and what we're responsible for delivering.
HOW IT WORKS
01 | DISCOVERY: We collaborate to determine what you need.
We review your current marketing, priorities, internal capacity and where additional support would make the biggest difference.
02 | ALIGN: We confirm your budget.
We establish the level of ongoing investment so our recommendations are built within realistic parameters.
03 | PROPOSE: We build your custom retainer.
Starting with our established monthly marketing packages, we customize the services and scope around what your organization actually needs, without adding services you don't.
04 | INTEGRATE: We establish the system.
We work with your internal point of contact to establish communication, content planning, approvals, campaigns and reporting.
05 | EXECUTE: We do the work.

06 | ANALYZE + ADJUST: We use the data.

WE BUILD THE SYSTEM AROUND YOUR TEAM.
Once we're integrated, Cole Creative establishes an ongoing workflow with your internal point of contact for:
Content Planning • Strategy • Campaigns • Creative Development • Approvals • Publishing • Reporting
Everyone knows what's coming, who's responsible for what and what needs approval.
Your internal lead stays connected to the priorities and decisions that require their knowledge of the organization. We keep the digital marketing moving.
That last paragraph is particularly important because it communicates the division of responsibility in two sentences without overexplaining it.
KEEP US CONNECTED TO YOUR BUSINESS.
Your team doesn't need to manage the digital marketing, but we do need to know what's happening inside your organization.
Your designated point of contact keeps us informed about priorities, events, updates and opportunities, provides the raw photos and videos needed for content, and coordinates timely approvals.
You keep us connected to the business. We keep the digital marketing moving.
That feels much more like the actual arrangement. It doesn't present their responsibilities as a list of requirements. It explains the small but essential role they play that enables you to take the larger workload off their plate.

Cole Creative's ongoing Digital Marketing services are built for established businesses and organizations ready to put their digital marketing in experienced hands.
You already have a strong business and an internal team focused on moving it forward. You need an external marketing team that can step in, collaborate with your team, get organized and consistently manage the work behind it.
You provide the insight, access and raw content. We provide the strategy, structure and execution.
Your team stays focused on relationships, networking, growth and the work happening inside the business. We make sure your digital marketing keeps pace.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
Cole Creative's ongoing Digital Marketing retainers start at $1,700/month. We begin with our established monthly marketing package options and customize the scope based on your organization's needs, priorities, internal resources and budget.
-
Every ongoing Digital Marketing engagement begins with a 3-month onboarding agreement. These first three months allow us to establish the foundation for effective ongoing marketing.
During the first month, we do not publish content. Instead, we audit your current digital presence, establish brand voice, goals and priorities, organize communication and approval processes, secure access to the necessary accounts and platforms, review available photography and creative assets, and begin building the content system we'll use moving forward.
From there, we begin executing the strategy and gathering the performance data needed to make informed decisions.
After the initial three months, ongoing clients move into a 6- or 12-month agreement. This gives us the time needed to plan strategically, evaluate meaningful performance trends, optimize the platforms we're managing and continually improve the work based on what the data tells us.

Not necessarily. We can work with an existing branded photography library, client-provided photo and video content, stock imagery, or a combination of these resources.
We strongly recommend investing in a professional branded photography library when possible, but stock imagery can also be used strategically and is a regular part of the content mix for many of our clients.
-
We provide monthly, quarterly and annual analytics reporting to identify trends, evaluate performance and inform ongoing strategy, content and campaigns.
