We’re taking a step back from the retainer model and focusing on what really matters to drive success for your business. Instead of jumping right into a typical 12-month marketing retainer that requires a lengthy onboarding process, we start with a project that makes an immediate positive impact and tests whether or not we’re right for each other. It’s kind of like dating but with a better ROI.  Start your next project with Perrill Fill out this form to get started.

Signing a year-long contract after a few conversations with a new agency can lead to missed goals, unimpressive deliverables, and the same “business as usual” approach each month. Sound familiar? Let’s take the retainer out of the conversation until we’ve successfully completed a project. Then we can decide to move forward together by setting goals and implementing marketing tactics that drive real, long-term business impact. ## The benefits of starting with a project Consider this a trial period but with real goals, deliverables, and results. And while you’re determining if we’re a good fit for your business, we’ll make sure we have the right resources in place to help you hit your business goals. 1 Get started away Rather than going through a long onboarding process, we’ll get started right away with clear goals, an agreed-on completion date, and deliverables that hit your goals. 2 Better marketing plans While typical marketing agencies develop a strategy after just one or two initial conversations, starting with a project first allows us to gain a deep understanding of your business before discussing long-term goals. Project-based marketing lets us create proactive marketing plans that reflect both your short- and long-term goals. 3 Avoid rinse-and-repeat marketing Contact-based marketing can box in both businesses and marketing teams with cookie-cutter tactics. We focus on what needs to get done now while considering the long-term success of your business.  What projects can we partner on? We have a variety of baseline projects we could collaborate on, but if you have a specific project or goal in mind, we're all ears. We can also start with a full website build or redesign if that's the most immediate need. An in-depth audit with actionable recommendations (SEO, ads, social) A HubSpot onboarding or optimization project Google Analytics 4 remediation and new reporting setup Product validation in Google Search Console for all Merchant Listings A brand messaging strategy and user persona development A campaign launch on a single platform An in-depth consultation session with recommendations and roadmap A custom project that aligns with your business goals Let's get to work!
