The Cost of Waiting
Every day you’re not using HighLevel in your business, you’re most likely missing out on opportunities that could easily add up to $1,000 per day or more.
Here’s how we came to this standard estimate :
Missed Leads: Without automated tools like the AI Employee, potential customers slip through the cracks.
Lost Sales: Delayed follow-ups and inconsistent engagement mean fewer conversions.
Wasted Time: Manual tasks take time away from revenue-generating activities.
Reputation Damage: Unmanaged reviews or poor online visibility can push potential customers to competitors.
Real Value-Adding Results You Can Expect
When you start implementing HighLevel in your daily operations, whether it is through your own subscription (and your own efforts and time) or through a marketing agency like ours, here’s what you’ll gain almost immediately:
1. Higher Lead Capture Rates
HighLevel’s AI tools ensure every inquiry is followed up on—whether it’s through email, SMS, or phone—so no lead is ever wasted. SMBs using HighLevel report up to a 40% increase in lead conversions within the first few months.
2. Increased Revenue
By automating customer interactions and streamlining workflows, you’ll see more sales, faster. For many of our clients, adopting HighLevel leads to $10,000+ in additional monthly revenue.

And remember how much recruiting a dedicated sales person or marketer would cost you on a yearly basis? Its often helpful to put things into perspective…
Option A - The Marketing Agency : CRM That Comes with Expertise
When you work with a marketing agency like ours, you’re not just getting the software. You’re getting expert guidance, a tailored setup, and ongoing support. Essentially, we make the CRM work for you — without you having to lift a finger.
But it’s worth asking why SMBs rave about Agencies actually?
We Know What We’re Doing
Agencies have typically trained pros who know these AI-driven CRMs inside and out. We don’t just set it up; we optimize it for your business goals, whether that’s more leads, better customer retention, or increased sales.
You Save So Much Time
Let’s be real: You, like the majority of small to medium-size businesses, don’t have time to micromanage your marketing. With an agency, we can handle the campaigns, monitor the metrics, and tweak the strategies so you can focus on running your business (depending on the plan you are on).
Strategies Made Just for You
No cookie-cutter solutions here. A good agency takes the time to understand your business, your audience, and your goals, then builds a plan designed to get results. As long as the agency you choose is taking pride at building a real relationship with their client.
Scalable as You Grow
Whether you’re a solopreneur or managing a growing team, agencies adjust with you. We scale our services to match your needs so you never outgrow your marketing strategy.
However, and like anything else, we also have our downsides that you should be aware of…
It Will Cost (A Bit) More
There is no doubt that agencies are an investment. There is no point in denying that. While you’re paying for expertise and results, it’s logically more expensive upfront than a DIY SaaS subscription. Quality and knowledge comes at a price.
You’re Not Fully in Control
Some business owners want to be in the driver’s seat 24/7. When you work with an agency, you’re trusting someone else to handle the wheel—and that takes a leap of faith. Unless the agency delivers a personalized approach, which is typically the case in family-size agencies (like ours).
Picking the Right Partner Is Critical
Not all agencies are created equal either. If you choose the wrong one, you risk misaligned strategies and missed opportunities. (Pro tip: Always look for a team with proven results and client testimonials—like us!)
Option B - The SaaS Option: The Do-It-Yourself Alternative With Our Ready-to-Use Growth Tools
If you choose a SaaS option, like ours as well, you don’t just get software—you gain immediate access to our exclusive content (via our snapshot and our 30-day free trial) which we will tailor to your needs & niche, including:
Pre-Built Sales Funnels (up to 3-step): Hit the ground running with proven conversion pathways.
Surveys & Forms (including quizzes): Capture vital customer insights to sharpen your offer.
Dozens of Pre-Built Email Campaigns: Newsletters, promotions, and nurturing sequences ready to roll.
20+ Automated Workflows: Let our proven automations attract, engage, and retain customers—so you can focus on what you do best.
If this was not enough, you will also get:
Constant Access to Fresh Content: We keep adding new marketing assets, so you always have tools to grow—yours or your clients’ businesses.
Personalized Support: If HighLevel’s support can’t help it, we will - free of charge.
Affiliate Opportunities: Partner with us, earn more free content continuously, and keep evolving with our community committed to your success.
