Agency Dashboard Retainer Margin Model

Agency Dashboard's unlimited client accounts and staff seats across all paid plans mean your cost per client drops as you add more. The Starter plan at $5/mo for 1 campaign, or Freelancer at $35/mo for 10, lets you test the model. But the real leverage comes from packaging reporting as a retainer service. For example, a local SEO agency can charge $299/mo for the 'Local Starter' productized offer, which includes setup and monthly delivery. With a 4-hour setup and 2 hours monthly effort, the margin is substantial once you have multiple clients. The framework: map your retainer fee against the per-client cost of Agency Dashboard (which approaches zero with scale) and your delivery hours. As you add clients, your effective cost per report drops, widening margins. The key is to standardize onboarding and reporting schedules to keep effort flat while revenue grows.
