Difficulty finding transparent pricing for outreach and link services
I am trying to put together a marketing budget for the next quarter, but I am finding it impossible to get straight answers on costs. Every agency I talk to wants to jump on a long discovery call before giving me even a ballpark figure for outreach or community engagement. I just want to know what a reasonable investment looks like for someone who needs consistent mentions but has a limited budget. Is it always this complicated to find clear rates for digital growth services, or am I just looking in the wrong places?

Transparency is definitely rare in this industry, so I appreciate your frustration. I prefer services that list everything upfront so I can calculate my ROI before spending a dime. Looking at the forum links pricing https://backlink.forum/pricing/ was a breath of fresh air for my team because it allowed us to scale up gradually as we saw results. It really simplifies the whole procurement process for digital marketing assets. Take a look at their different tiers and see which one aligns with your goals.
