Vortox Lab vs a generalist agency vs hiring in-house
Same budget, three very different outcomes for a landscaping company.
The three things we never hide
Publishing this up front converts better than burying it in a contract.
Ad spend
Google, Meta and LSA budgets are billed directly by the platforms and never marked up. You keep full visibility and control.
Activation fee
A one-time onboarding fee covers audit, account setup, tracking and the first build. Quoted in writing before you sign.
Minimum term
A 90-day initial term so the system can prove out, then month-to-month. Cancel with 30 days notice, accounts stay yours.
The Package Changes When the Landscaping Calendar Changes
Full service landscaping marketing should not spend the same way in every month. Marketing demand peaks around April and September, then drops sharply in November.
January to March
Build call handling, follow-up, website tracking, reporting, and campaigns before warm weather creates the workload.
April to June
Run demand around actual crew capacity, answer peak call volume, and stop low-value work from filling profitable routes.
September to October
Protect renewals, sell fall work, prepare snow campaigns where relevant, and plan next season before the November cliff.
November to December
Switch from buying leads you cannot service into systems, renewal work, snow response, or an agreed winter hold at 50% of the active management fee.
Choose the Tier by Constraint, Then Check Revenue
Revenue is a useful first filter, but it does not decide the package alone. A single-market company with three profitable service lines can require more work than a larger maintenance operator with stable routes and clean reporting.
Foundation is the planning starting point when one market and one service line need focused execution. Move higher when calls, campaigns, website work, or CRM cleanup create several active workstreams.
Growth is the planning starting point for established operators selling several services, managing more follow-up, and needing broader website and campaign work without a multi-branch reporting layer.
Scale is the planning starting point when branches, managers, AI workflows, attribution, and service-line reporting must run together. Crew capacity and branch accountability matter more than raw lead volume.
Enterprise is the planning starting point for franchise systems, regional teams, complex integrations, governance, and executive reporting. The written audit defines responsibilities before the custom fee is proposed.
Franchise systems, acquisitions and complex integrations need custom software, a dedicated pod and executive reporting. Enterprise is scoped to your structure.
One market, one service line and focused execution for dependable growth.
- One market, one core service
- Local SEO + Google Business Profile
- One paid channel managed
- Website care + monthly reporting

read the case studyTen questions about price, scope, term and risk
Is ad spend included in the monthly price?
No. Ad spend is billed directly by Google, Meta and LSA and is never marked up. The package fee covers management, build and reporting only. Compare the four tiers.
Why does pricing start at $2,000 a month?
That covers a real team running local SEO, one paid channel, website care and monthly reporting for a single market. Below that, coverage is too thin to move booked jobs reliably.
Is there an activation or setup fee?
Yes, a one-time onboarding fee for audit, account setup, tracking and the first build. It is quoted in writing before you sign — see what is not included.
What is actually included in each tier?
Every tier is the full growth system across marketing, AI, technology and reporting. Higher tiers add markets, branches, automation depth and cadence. The full comparison table lists every line item.
Can I move between tiers?
Yes. Most companies start on the tier that fits their revenue band and move up as markets or branches are added. Changes take effect the following month.
What if I only need one service?
The model works because the pillars connect — campaigns fail when calls, website or follow-up fail. Foundation is the smallest sensible scope; single point services are handled through consulting.
Is there a minimum contract term?
A 90-day initial term so the system can prove out, then month-to-month with 30 days notice to cancel. SEO and content need a season to compound.
Can I pause over winter?
Yes. A winter-hold rate keeps SEO, website and systems work running at reduced cost while paid demand pauses, so spring launches from strength. See winter hold.
Who owns the accounts and data?
What if it does not work?
You get a written priority list from the audit before committing, weekly visibility on the work, and month-to-month terms after 90 days. No lock-in, no hidden dashboards. Start with the free growth audit.
