What you're really paying for
Posting is the cheap part. The expensive mistakes happen before anyone sees a post: a wrong price, missing hours, no button to book. A massage therapist we work with in Stoney Creek had a website asking $129 for a $113 massage. Nobody noticed for months, and every visitor saw the higher price.
Old siteNew siteSo before comparing prices, compare what's included:
- A check of every channel first: Instagram, Facebook, Google, website. Fixing a broken profile beats posting more.
- Photos that show the real product, not stock pictures.
- Replies to comments and messages: that's where orders actually happen.
- A plain report: what worked, what's next. No dashboards to learn.
Our prices, openly
We're a small Hamilton agency where AI does the heavy lifting, so we can do more for less. In US dollars, month to month after setup:
Questions
Is CA$500 a month normal for a small business?
Yes. In Ontario, CA$400–700 a month for about 8 posts is a common range in 2026. Check that it includes fixing your profile and replying to messages, not only posting.
Can I just use free AI tools instead?
You can make posts with free tools, but someone still has to decide what to post, check it's true, fix your profile and Google listing, and reply to customers. That work is what an agency is for.
Do I have to sign a long contract?
Not with us: the monthly plans are month to month.
