$1,000 a Month for Marketing: A Practical Scope Planner

Rithm's Growth Marketing plan is $1,000 USD per month for one primary offer: eight original static social posts adapted across up to two profiles, one lead campaign on either Meta or Google Search, one supported inquiry email workflow, up to an hour of minor site updates, and a monthly summary plus a 30-minute review. Ad spend, tools and messaging usage are separate.

Why a scope planner helps

"Monthly marketing" means very different things from one agency to another. Laying out a sample month shows exactly where the effort goes and what is not included, so you can decide whether it fits before starting. The canonical scope is on the Small Business Launch & Growth page; this article illustrates it.

The monthly scope at a glance

A hypothetical sample month

A fictional bakery chooses "custom celebration cakes" as its primary offer and Meta as its campaign platform.

• Week 1: Monthly plan agreed. Content themes drafted: cake design process, flavor options, ordering timeline, FAQ about lead times. Campaign audience and landing page confirmed.
• Week 2: Four static posts published across Instagram and Facebook. The Meta campaign runs after the owner approves budget and access.
• Week 3: Four more static posts. Inquiry workflow checked: each cake inquiry gets a confirmation and, if needed, up to two related follow-ups before the owner takes over.
• Week 4: A minor website update adds a clearer ordering deadline note. Monthly summary sent and reviewed in a 30-minute call.

That is the whole month. It is focused on one offer so the results can be read clearly.

What you provide

• Approved brand and product images each month.
• Timely approval of posts and campaign settings.
• Ad budget, paid directly to the platform.
• Access to existing tools, granted without sharing passwords.
• A person to handle inquiries once the follow-up workflow hands them over.

How to judge the month

Look at confirmed outcomes, such as orders or booked consultations, not only clicks. With small numbers, month-to-month swings are normal; our guide to reading a monthly report when lead volume is small explains how to interpret them. No rankings or specific results are promised. For reference, see Google Analytics Help: Best practices to avoid sending PII.

Pairing with a website

If you do not have a suitable website, the $500 USD Website Launch is its own package. Combined, the first month is $1,500 and later months return to $1,000 each, but neither package requires the other.

Frequently asked questions

Can I split the eight posts differently?

The eight originals are adapted across up to two profiles. How they are distributed is agreed in the monthly plan.

Can the campaign run on both Meta and Google?

The plan includes one campaign on one platform, chosen at onboarding. Additional channels are quoted separately.

Is video included?

No. The plan includes static posts. Video shoots and reels are outside this scope.
