CleverLMS White-Label Margin Ladder
The CleverLMS White-Label Margin Ladder is a framework for agencies to move from low-margin setup fees to high-margin recurring retainers by progressively layering CleverLMS's white-label capabilities. Start with the CUSTOMFIT plan at $100/month for a pilot client, charging a setup fee that covers your 20 hours of configuration. Then, as the client scales from 100 to 1,500+ users, upgrade them to the PRIME PACKAGE at $350/month, which includes white-labeling for web and mobile. The ladder's top rung is publishing custom mobile apps under your agency's brand on Google Play and the App Store, a premium differentiator that justifies a $1,090/month retainer. Each rung increases client stickiness and your margin, as the platform's BI dashboards and gamification reduce churn. For example, an agency serving a regional retail chain can start with onboarding courses, then expand to compliance training, locking in a multi-year contract.
