You need a big-picture strategy, and the creative power to *actually* implement it. But when you’ve only got a spare 10 minutes here and there, you’re left squeezing all your projects and ideas into a limited time, without a chance to fix the looming long-term issues and plan for the future.
No, that question isn’t wishful thinking. You really can get real marketing results from real people who are invested in your success (and you won’t have to increase your staff count, go through another round of onboarding, or have more of those fun HR conversations you always enjoy so much).
With a retainer, you get more than just design and marketing that’s nice to look at—you get a plan and a strategy that engages your audience to take action.
✅ Everything from creative designs, web pages, and ads to fully-fledged communication plans and execution.
✅ Clear strategies and consulting that establish your brand and get results.
✅ A response to any request within 24 hours and priority support.
✅ Flexibility during the busy seasons and proactivity during slower times.
✅ Your brand voice and identity is unique to you—TwoTone can help define it and maintain consistently.
✅ A team of marketing guides who can take you from where you are to where you want to be.
We've organized what an organization needs into three buckets: strategy, creative, and media. There is a lot here and knowing what you need can be overwhelming. We often recommend starting with a marketing audit to determine where to spend time and effort. Most people have a handful of the items below they know they need on a recurring basis, but they also wonder what else could help them improve.
”We started working with Two Tone just over a year ago and they have revolutionized our marketing, branding and overall presence to our customers and prospects. They are the greatest group of people to work with because they are smart, friendly, responsive and a company you can really trust with your image. They listen well and take input from us and turn it into world class content for all to see. They have quickly become one our most trusted partners and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for help in today’s “influencer” culture. We love Two Tone!

Our clients have unique needs, which we discuss during our initial free Discovery Call. Based on your workload, we’ll provide a retainer package that’s a perfect fit for your organization. The monthly retainer pricing can vary from $5,000/month to $30,000/month. Some retainers are larger than this, but those are generally due to ad spend investments.
While it may initially seem cheaper to pay hourly, those hours can add up. As a retainer client, you’ll be eligible for a few extra perks that hourly clients don’t receive:
For more information, you can read this article comparing freelancers, agencies, and in-house marketing support.
Based on our experience working with hundreds of clients, a retainer of 33 hours per month ($5,000/month) is equivalent to the work of one and a half full-time employees. For more on the difference between a new employee and hiring a creative team, read the pros and cons in our recent article.
Sometimes workloads expand—and that’s OK! If you end up needing more retainer hours, we can grow with you.
If you’re looking for a complete rebranding of your organization or a full website redesign, those projects are typically outside of a retainer and done on a project basis. Additionally, longform video creation is not included.
