How much does an AI marketing agency cost?

Most AI marketing agencies in the UK charge between £1,000 and £5,000 per month, depending on scope. At Kobestarr Digital, packages start from £497 per month for local SEO and foundational work, up to £2,497 per month for fractional CMO with full AI-powered marketing systems. The difference between us and a traditional agency: you're paying for a senior strategist and AI systems, not a team of juniors padding timesheets.

What should I budget for digital marketing as an SME?

A common benchmark is 5-10% of revenue. For an SME turning over £500,000, that's £25,000-50,000 a year - or roughly £2,000-4,000 per month. But that includes ad spend, tools, and agency fees combined. If your budget is tight, start with foundations - local SEO and a proper website. Those deliver the best return per pound for most small businesses.

What does a fractional CMO cost in the UK?

A full-time Chief Marketing Officer in the UK costs £80,000-120,000 per year in salary alone, plus NI, pension, and benefits. A fractional CMO gives you the same strategic leadership for a fraction of that. Our Scale package at £2,497 per month gives you weekly strategy, AI-powered execution, and full reporting - for roughly a third of what a full-time hire would cost.

Can I switch plans later?

Yes. You can move up or down at any point. We will adjust the scope and billing from the next month.

Is there a minimum commitment?

We recommend at least three months to see meaningful results from SEO and content work. But there are no lock-in contracts - you can cancel with 30 days notice.

What if I just need a website?

We do standalone website projects too. Websites start at 995 pounds and can be live in days. A fuller business site, with more pages, custom design and deeper SEO work, is typically around three thousand pounds. Get in touch for a quote.
