So it's like, yeah, all of a sudden it just grows.

Right now it's probably closer to the 2K mark, but we're pushing this up.

We're trying to move a little bit more upstream.

2K per month?

Yeah, 2K per month in kind of recurring retainer.

we start with a three month contract and then it turns month to month after that.

Um, it's, it's, I like, I've been advised on multiple different ways to do that.

Personally, I'm in the field of saying like, my job is to set expectations and I would be okay with not even having a three month contract, just having a one month contract.

We do need 30 days cancellation because we typically are planning things 30 days in advance.

But, um,

But the first few months are a struggle on social media, especially for new properties.

But even for existing properties to take something to the next level, it requires consistent publishing, getting in front of the right people, figuring out what's going to work and what's not going to work.

And all those things take time.

And so just getting your hands on a company account.

you know, you need to set the expectation with the client that this is a long-term investment.

Yeah, a lot of agencies are doing year contracts.

The reason I do it is because, well, probably maybe because I'm foolish.

Because when I talk to other agency owners, they're like, well, if you have to hire somebody to fulfill roles, you need to know that that contract is locked in for a year.

And I'm finding that to be a problem now as we're just now starting to see.

Yeah, I don't know if the thing is, is that I'm trying to think about what provides the best value to the client.
