Contractor Marketing Pricing
Plans start at $750 per month. Every engagement starts with a $150 Revenue Map Call. 30-day minimum, cancel anytime.
Start Here: Revenue Map Call — $150
The Revenue Map Call is a 45-minute diagnostic of your current growth structure, acquisition channels, and positioning, priced at $150. You receive a written summary with specific, prioritized recommendations within 72 hours, and the $150 credits in full toward any engagement if you move forward.
This is not a sales call. If Social Status is not the right fit, you will know within 45 minutes and still leave with a plan you can act on.

Two Separate Product Lines
Alongside Growth Systems plans, Social Status runs two products that can be bought on their own. Neither requires a monthly plan, and either can run alongside one.
Trades Found — AI search visibility
Built for getting named in AI answers — ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. The Audit is a $750 one-time fee and scores your business across eight AI search readiness factors, with a prioritized action plan. The Foundation is $2,000 one-time and deploys the technical schema layer underneath it. The Authority Engine starts at $1,500 per month for ongoing content, citation, and authority work.
The $750 Audit credits in full toward a Foundation or Authority Engine engagement started within 30 days.
Pinned Local — Google Business Profile and map pack
Built for local search and map results specifically. The diagnostic is $750 one-time and covers profile completeness, category accuracy, and competitive position in your service area. Pinned Managed starts at $1,200 per month and implements the priority actions from your diagnostic on an ongoing basis. Pinned Full System starts at $2,500 per month and adds the automation layer — lead response, review generation, estimate follow-up, and referral activation.
The difference between the two: Trades Found covers how AI systems find and describe your business. Pinned Local covers how you rank in Google Maps. Most businesses need both eventually, and which comes first depends on where the bigger gap is.
How Pricing Works
Social Status plans start at these rates. Final pricing depends on scope, site condition, and growth objectives.
All monthly engagements run on a 30-day minimum and can be canceled at any time. No annual contracts, no negotiating, no back-and-forth.
Not Everyone Is a Fit
Social Status works best with trades and service businesses that already have revenue and prefer structure over shortcuts.
This is not a fit for:
- Businesses shopping for the cheapest option
- Anyone expecting results in 30 days
- Owners who want zero involvement — the systems need your input on pricing, capacity, and which jobs you actually want
Frequently Asked Questions
What determines the investment level?
Scope, complexity, and how fast you want to move, with plans starting at $750 per month. A single-channel optimization project takes less strategy and execution than a full system build, so the range reflects real differences in work rather than tiering for its own sake. The specific factors are current infrastructure, market competitiveness, internal capacity, and pace.
Do you work on monthly retainers or fixed projects?
Both. Foundational builds, audits, and website work are fixed-scope projects with a set price. Ongoing execution runs as a monthly engagement starting at $750. Most established businesses move to the monthly model once the core build is done, because visibility requires ongoing calibration rather than a one-time push.
Is there a minimum commitment?
Thirty days, and you can cancel any time after that. There are no annual contracts and no early termination terms. Social Status structures it this way because results should keep the engagement going — if the work isn’t producing, a contract is the wrong reason to stay.
What is the difference between Trades Found and Pinned Local?
Trades Found covers AI search visibility — whether ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews name your business when someone asks for a recommendation. Pinned Local covers Google Business Profile and map pack ranking, which is a different system with different inputs. Both start with a $750 diagnostic, and which one to run first depends on where your gap is bigger. The Revenue Map Call will tell you which one it is.
How quickly should we expect measurable results?
Early signals typically show within the first 30 to 60 days once systems are live, with meaningful stability building over 90 to 180 days depending on starting position and market. Google Business Profile changes move fastest because Google and Gemini read them almost immediately. Site authority and content take longer and keep paying out after the initial build.
