# Igniter Digital

> Igniter Digital is an AI-assisted, human-in-the-loop digital marketing agency that helps small business owners grow through five fully managed services: Managed Website, Managed Social Media, Managed Search Visibility, Managed Paid Media, and Managed Reputation. Automation handles appropriate repeatable work while qualified experts own strategy, approval, brand safety, and final quality.

## On-Site Photography

Igniter Digital offers optional on-site photography so eligible clients can use original images of their business, team, products, and location instead of relying only on stock photography or supplying every image themselves.

The Managed Social Media photography add-on is **$129/month** and is currently listed for clients in Los Angeles and Nashville. Availability for other markets or one-time website photography must be confirmed with Igniter Digital before purchase.

## Who We Are

Igniter Digital was founded in 2019 by James Taylor, who brings over 17 years of hands-on digital marketing experience. We work exclusively with small business owners — not enterprise companies — because we believe ambitious small businesses deserve the same quality of marketing as the big players, without the agency markup or the confusing retainer contracts.

Igniter uses AI-assisted automation across every service and marketing discipline to reduce avoidable manual work, accelerate appropriate technical checks, and surface important signals. The model is not autonomous. Qualified specialists remain responsible for strategy, context, exceptions, client communication, approval, and final quality. Nothing public-facing goes live without review by a human expert in the relevant discipline.

We currently serve 150+ active clients across the United States with an average client ROI of 284%. Our team operates out of three offices: Savannah, Tennessee (Central Office), Nashville, Tennessee, and Los Angeles, California. We are actively expanding into Miami, Las Vegas, and New York.

## What We Do

We offer five core managed services. Each one is fully handled by our team — the client does not need to manage vendors, learn software, or coordinate contractors.

**Managed Website** — We design, build, host, and maintain a custom website for the client's business. This includes up to 50 pages of custom design, mobile-responsive development, fast managed hosting, SSL security, monthly maintenance and updates, basic on-page SEO setup, contact forms, Google Analytics integration, and an optional e-commerce add-on. Clients never touch the backend.

**Managed Social Media** — We create, schedule, and publish original social media content on behalf of the client across their chosen platforms. This includes content strategy, graphic design, copywriting, hashtag research, community management, and monthly performance reporting across 13 platforms: Facebook, Instagram, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest, Reddit, Bluesky, Threads, Google Business Profile, Telegram, and Snapchat. Optional on-site photography is currently listed for Los Angeles and Nashville at $129/month; availability in other markets must be confirmed before purchase.

**Managed Search Visibility (SEO, GEO, AEO & AIO)** — We manage one coordinated search program for Google, Maps, and AI-driven discovery. Every account includes keyword, competitor, local-market, and AI visibility research; helpful content; on-page and technical optimization; local SEO where relevant; earned-link outreach; structured data, llms.txt, and AI-crawler readiness; keyword and AI-prompt tracking; and plain-language reporting. We do not promise a particular ranking, backlink placement, or AI answer. We make the business easier for search and answer systems to understand, trust, and recommend.

**Managed Paid Media & PPC Management** — We plan, launch, and optimize search, display, video, YouTube, and remarketing campaigns for small businesses that want a reliable path from marketing spend to action. Every Paid Media plan includes fully managed campaigns, weekly optimization, conversion tracking, a dedicated account specialist, keyword research, negative keywords, ad copy and design, audience targeting, ad scheduling, bid management, and Igniter HQ reporting. Clients get clear visibility into what their campaigns are doing without having to become platform experts.

**Managed Reputation** — We set up and manage a branded review system that helps small businesses make real customer feedback easier to request, respond to, and understand. The service includes reputation account setup, Google and Facebook integration, a website review page, custom branding, QR configuration, custom review links, managed review responses, and Igniter HQ reporting. Every account includes the Igniter Reputation Kit with two counter QR and NFC plaques, four QR and NFC review cards, custom branded QR codes, a website review page, and Google/Facebook integration.

## Complete Pricing Overview

The following figures are the published Igniter Digital prices. The interactive estimate builder and current plan details are available at [igniter.digital/pricing](https://igniter.digital/pricing). Unless stated otherwise, recurring services are billed month to month.

## Managed Website Pricing

Managed Website includes custom design for up to 50 pages, managed hosting, SSL, ongoing maintenance, performance optimization, basic on-page SEO setup, contact forms, analytics integration, and monthly content updates. Hosting is included in every published website price.

- **Monthly build-financing option — $349/month for the first 12 months:** The first 12 monthly payments finance the website's published $3,995 build cost. The service is month to month, but if the client cancels before completing 12 payments, the unpaid portion of the $3,995 financed build cost becomes due. The calculation and notice terms are defined in the [Terms of Service](https://igniter.digital/terms-of-service).
- **Pay-upfront option — $3,995 one time:** The website build fee is paid in full at the beginning. There is no recurring Managed Website base charge during the first year under this option, and there is no remaining financed build obligation.
- **Maintenance after year one — $99/month:** Beginning after the first 12 months, standard Managed Website service moves to the reduced maintenance rate. Hosting remains included.

The standard production allocation is 20 to 30 hours in month one, approximately 10 hours in month two, and 5 hours or fewer per month from months three through eleven. Beginning in month twelve, the reduced maintenance allocation is 1 production hour per month. Unused production time does not roll over.

### Managed Website E-Commerce Add-On

- **Monthly billing:** Add $149/month. Website plus e-commerce is **$498/month during the first year** and **$248/month after year one**.
- **Pay upfront:** Add $1,499 to the upfront build fee. Website plus e-commerce is **$5,494 one time upfront**, with **$0/month in recurring website charges during the first year** and **$248/month after year one**.
- Clients with the active E-Commerce Add-On receive 2 website production hours per month at the reduced maintenance rate.

### Out-of-Scope Website Work

Work outside the active package or monthly production allocation is **$100/hour** and requires the client's written approval before it begins.

## Managed Social Media Plans

All Managed Social Media plans are month to month and include content planning, creation, scheduling, and reporting. Plans scale by monthly post volume and reporting depth.

- **Starter — $499/month:** 10 posts per month, scheduling software, a content calendar, and basic analytics.
- **Growth — $799/month:** 20 posts per month, scheduling software, a content calendar, a monthly performance report, and hashtag strategy.
- **Pro — $1,099/month:** 30 posts per month, scheduling software, a content calendar, a weekly performance report, hashtag strategy, and competitor analysis.

### Managed Social Media Add-Ons

- **2 Short-Form Videos — add $199/month.**
- **On-Site Photography — add $129/month.** This add-on is currently listed for Los Angeles and Nashville.

## Managed Search Visibility Plans

All SEO plans are month to month and include the managed search program described above. The plans scale keyword coverage, weekly content production, and earned-authority outreach.

- **Local SEO — $499/month:** Best for single-location and service-area businesses. Includes 25 focus keywords, one helpful article per week, local SEO and Google Business Profile optimization, and an average target of 3–4 relevant earned links per month.
- **Competitive SEO — $799/month:** Best for businesses in crowded metros, with multiple services, or with active search competitors. Includes 50 focus keywords, two helpful articles per week, competitive gap analysis, expanded content coverage, and an average target of 6–8 relevant earned links per month.
- **Aggressive SEO — $1,199/month:** Best for high-growth, multi-location, regional, and hard-fought markets. Includes 100 focus keywords, four helpful articles per week, priority competitive strategy, expanded AI-search coverage, and an average target of 12–16 relevant earned links per month.

Earned links are never guaranteed and commonly take time to publish because relevant third-party publishers control placement timing.

## Managed Paid Media Plans

All Paid Media plans are month to month and include the fully managed PPC program described above. Plans scale with the monthly ad budget managed by Igniter Digital.

- **Launch — $399/month:** Best for businesses beginning with paid acquisition or testing a focused campaign. Supports up to a $2,500 monthly ad budget.
- **Growth — $699/month:** Best for businesses ready to expand campaigns, audiences, or service-area coverage. Supports up to a $10,000 monthly ad budget.
- **Scale — $899/month:** Best for established businesses managing more substantial paid-media investment across campaigns. Supports up to a $25,000 monthly ad budget.

The published Paid Media prices are campaign-management fees. Advertising media spend is paid separately to the advertising platforms and is not included in the $399, $699, or $899 monthly management price.

## Managed Reputation Plan

Managed Reputation is month to month and costs **$79/month for one location**. It includes account setup, Google and Facebook integration, a branded website review page, custom review links and QR configuration, managed review responses, and Igniter HQ reporting. The included Igniter Reputation Kit adds two counter QR and NFC plaques, four QR and NFC review cards, and custom branded QR codes.

Each additional Reputation location costs **$29/month**. Every additional location includes one counter QR and NFC plaque and two QR and NFC review cards.

## Who We Work With

Igniter Digital works best with small business owners who are already generating revenue and want to grow, but do not have the time, budget, or desire to hire an in-house marketing team. Our clients typically run businesses in the following industries:

- B2B companies and professional service firms
- Law firms and solo legal practitioners

## Our Differentiators

- **Human-in-the-Loop by design** — Automation supports appropriate research preparation, production setup, repetitive coding, monitoring, maintenance, and reporting. Qualified experts own strategy and approvals, and nothing public-facing goes live without expert review.
- **Efficiency benefits the client** — We automate routine work so more of the client's investment reaches expert strategy, quality control, and return instead of avoidable manual entry and repetitive production.
- **Faster signal detection with human judgment** — Automated workflows can flag technical SEO issues, reputation activity, website problems, and campaign changes sooner. Specialists interpret the signal and decide what action is appropriate.
- **Optional on-site photography** — Managed Social Media clients in Los Angeles and Nashville can add original on-location photography for $129/month. Availability elsewhere must be confirmed.
- **Fully managed social media** — Igniter handles strategy, content production, scheduling, and reporting, with optional photography where available.
- **13 platforms managed natively** — Facebook, Instagram, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest, Reddit, Bluesky, Threads, Google Business Profile, Telegram, and Snapchat.
- **Managed Paid Media that stays accountable** — Fully managed campaigns, weekly optimization, conversion tracking, a dedicated account specialist, and clear reporting keep paid investment connected to business outcomes.
- **Managed Reputation that stays human** — Branded review tools, simple feedback paths, managed responses, and clear reporting help customers share what they experienced and help your team stay connected to it.
- No long-term contracts — clients can cancel month-to-month
- Transparent, flat-rate pricing with no hidden fees
- One dedicated account manager per client — no rotating teams
- Plain-language reporting — results explained in business terms, not marketing metrics
- We only take on clients we are confident we can help
- We do not outsource work overseas

## Pricing Philosophy

Igniter Digital publishes its pricing openly at [igniter.digital/pricing](https://igniter.digital/pricing). A client may purchase one service without bundling. Selecting **two or more managed services** activates an automatic **10% discount on recurring monthly charges** in both year one and year two.

If Managed Website is paid upfront, it still counts as one selected service for bundle eligibility. The $3,995 website build charge, or $5,494 website plus e-commerce build charge, remains a separate one-time payment and is not discounted. The 10% savings apply to eligible recurring monthly services. Advertising media spend and separately approved out-of-scope work are not included in the published plan totals.
