What is Elvate Resale Margin Ladder?
“Elvate wholesale tier → agency retainer tier”
Elvate's wholesale tiers set the floor for what an agency can charge. Local SEO Starter at $149/mo and SEO Starter at $249/mo suit single-location clients; SEO Growth at $549/mo and SEO Pro at $949/mo fit multi-location or competitive niches. The productized Elvate Local Link Starter at $1,290/mo, built on 4h setup plus 3h/mo of delivery work, shows the markup pattern: roughly 5x to 8x the underlying wholesale cost once reporting, QA, and account management are bundled in. An agency running ten Local SEO Starter clients pays $1,490/mo wholesale and can bill $12,900/mo at the productized rate, leaving margin to cover the 3h/mo per-client delivery load. The 14-day money-back guarantee lets an agency test the ladder on one client before committing a book of business.
