You're already paying someone on your team to do this. Hire us & let them get back to their job.
Every newsletter, board update, event flyer & social media post gets done by someone whose actual job is something else. That time has a price, and it's usually higher than the work you'd hire out.
Loaded cost means salary plus benefits and overhead, not take-home pay.
For context, the traditional fixes run about $80k for a communications hire, $200 to $500 an hour for a fractional CMO, or $10k a month for an agency retainer. Figures are market ranges for comparable roles and services in Portland.
Your organization spends about
$34,320
a year on communications done by people you didn't hire to do communications.
That's 624 hours, or 15.6 full work weeks
