Pricing  /  Published, not quoted on a call

No call required to find out.

You should not have to book a discovery call to learn what a policy manual costs. Here is the whole list. Promotional pricing is current as of today and can change without notice, and every number is the whole price for the work described.

Written scope firstYou approve what is included in writing before you pay anything.

Payment plansAvailable on full agency setups, so nothing is wired on faith.

No end-of-job feesThe quote is the price. In-scope revisions are included.

Full agency setup

Pick the license. We build the agency.

A setup is one scope at one price. Bought separately, the documents, the application and the enrollment for a non-medical agency come to $7,400 against a $5,000 setup, and that still leaves out business formation, operational setup, and anybody being responsible for the finished agency.

Website design, hosting, and maintenanceBuilt and launched, then hosted and maintained month to month. Content changes included. $375 + $100 / mo

Social media managementThirty posts a month, published twice a day across fifteen days. $200 / mo

The ad budget itself always stays in your own account and goes straight to the platform, so you set what you spend and you can see every dollar of it. We never touch your ad money.

Setup pricing varies by state because the required document set varies by state. If your state asks for something outside the scope we quoted, we tell you before we build it, not after.

What is and is not included

Included

  • Research of your state's current requirements at the time of your engagement
  • Business formation and EIN assistance, and the state and local registrations your agency needs
  • Your agency's name, logo, and service lines throughout every document
  • Word and PDF delivery, so you can maintain the manual yourself
  • Revisions the state requests that fall inside the written scope
  • A tracker showing what is finished and whose turn it is

Not included

  • State and federal application fees, which you pay directly to the agency
  • Legal and tax advice. We prepare and file formation paperwork with you, but we are not a law firm and we do not advise you on the law
  • Any guarantee of approval. Final determinations rest with the reviewing agency
  • New scope your state adds after the quote, which we price separately and in writing first

Already formed your LLC, or already have your manual? The setup price is the same. A setup is priced as one scope and one outcome, not as a list of parts to subtract from. If you genuinely only need two or three things, buy those from the list above instead; that is what it is there for.

Prices on this page are current as of today and can change without notice. The price that governs your project is the one in your written scope. See the refund and cancellation policy for how cancellations are handled.
