Pricing · CBD Brands

What CBD and hemp e-commerce brands pay.

Priced by product range and prompt set, not by location — a CBD brand has none. Start with the Shelf Audit, which is the same price as our location-based entry engagement and answers the equivalent question. Every engagement starts with an audit, and the audit fee is credited if you continue.

Common questions

Why publish pricing when no one else does?

Because hiding it wastes everyone’s time, and because AI engines preferentially cite pages containing real numbers. We would rather you self-qualify before a call than after one.

Is there a minimum term?

No. The monthly plans are cancel any time and the entry engagement is a one-time fixed-price project. Worth stating plainly though: review velocity and third-party coverage compound over three to six months, so leaving at month two means paying for work you never saw finish.

Does the audit fee come off the retainer?

Yes. If you move to a retainer within sixty days, the full audit fee is credited.

What if we already have an SEO agency?

Keep them. The work barely overlaps — theirs is on your site, most of ours is not. We are happy to work alongside them, and will tell you plainly if we think you are paying twice for the same thing.

Do you sell outside the US?

For CBD, yes. It is the only category we work in that is not effectively capped at North America — the UK is a real market and we scope it. Our cannabis retail and clinic work is US and Canada only, because that is where the market is.

Will AI engines actually recommend a CBD brand?

Sometimes, and less readily than in unregulated categories. Engines hedge on health-adjacent products and some prompts return no brand at all. We measure which prompts return a list before measuring whether you are on it, and report honestly on the ones that never will.
