When you choose a monthly plan, we put you at the front of the line. Here’s what you’ll get:

- You get discounted prices for design and development services. (our standard rates for digital design is $175/hr and $135 for development and technical support)
- Piece-of-mind that we’re here when you need the help!
How does it work?
The full monthly Plan fee is due at the time of the contract signing. As services are used, time is deducted from the pre-paid retainer. All work is itemized after each task is completed to show usage and we provide you with a monthly recap at the end of each month.
Leftovers/Additional hours
We do our best to make sure you stay up to-date on the status of your retainer hours, but ultimately, it’s up to you to ensure they’re used within the monthly time frame. Unused hours at the end of the month are forfeited, unless your contract states otherwise.
However, if have a 10 hour retainer program, but you need 15 hrs worth of work in a given month, we will bill you the additional 5 hours at the same rate as the retainer, not the normal rate. This can save you hundreds of dollars over the course of a year.
