What Is Your Marketing Really Costing You?
Enter your current setup — time, spend and platforms — and see what the same output costs with GrowthDept. Free, no sign-up required.
Most businesses underestimate what they're actually spending on marketing
Whether you're doing it yourself after hours, paying an agency retainer, or patching together a handful of tools, the real cost of your current marketing is almost certainly higher than it looks on paper. Time has a price. Inconsistent output costs leads. And tools that can't report results honestly make it impossible to know what's working — or what to stop paying for. This calculator puts it all on one screen.
GrowthDept handles the full department — strategy, content, publishing, engagement and reporting — from £99 a month
Most businesses choose between doing marketing badly and paying a lot for it. GrowthDept is a third option: a complete marketing department in a single platform, starting at £99/month for a single account and £999/month on the Agency plan for teams managing multiple clients. Use the calculator to see how your current setup compares before you spend anything.
- Strategy, content, publishing and reporting in one tool — no patchwork of separate subscriptions to stitch together
- Every post and reply waits for your approval before it goes live — nothing sensitive publishes itself
- Results are reported against real data sources, not invented metrics — so you know exactly what's actually driving growth
How it works
The calculator takes three inputs: your current monthly marketing spend (including your own time, valued at whatever hourly rate is realistic for you), the platforms you're posting on, and roughly how many leads you generate each month. It shows you the cost of matching that output with GrowthDept on whichever plan fits — Self-Post at £99, Starter at £249, Growth at £499, or Agency at £999 for multi-client setups. Every plan includes a 7-day free trial with no credit card required, and a 14-day refund policy covers you if GrowthDept turns out not to be the right fit.
Why GrowthDept — what the calculator doesn't capture
GrowthDept isn't a post scheduler or an AI copy generator. It reads your business from your website and connected accounts, builds a strategy around your commercial goals, creates and publishes content across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok and YouTube, captures and follows up on leads, and reports on what actually happened using real data from GA4 and Search Console — never fabricated. The human approval step isn't a formality: every post and every reply is held for your sign-off before it publishes, and price, legal, medical and money-related content is flagged for review on every plan regardless of tier. You stay in control; GrowthDept does the work of getting everything ready for your approval.
Frequently asked questions
Is GrowthDept worth paying for if I'm already handling marketing myself?
That depends on what your time is worth. If you're spending five or more hours a week on content, strategy, scheduling and chasing leads, you're already paying — just not seeing an invoice for it. The Self-Post plan at £99/month handles the full workflow so you can redirect that time to work only you can do. The 7-day free trial with no card required lets you test the real output before committing to anything.
Will it actually generate leads and revenue — or just produce posts?
GrowthDept learns your business, plans content around commercial goals and connects to your existing channels. Leads that come through connected platforms are captured and followed up within the tool. Results are reported against real data from GA4, Search Console and your social accounts — not estimated or fabricated. Posts are the means; commercial outcomes are what the platform is built to drive.
Can I trust it to publish on my behalf without making an embarrassing mistake?
Nothing publishes without your approval — no exceptions. Every post and every reply is held in a queue until you sign off, and price, legal, medical and financial content is always flagged for review on every plan. You can edit anything before it goes out. You are not handing over the keys; you are getting a department that does all the preparation and waits for your yes before anything moves.
