Worth knowing
Finding a specialist you can count on
Hiring an independent marketer has real appeal. It's usually cheaper than an agency, and working with one person keeps decisions fast. The trouble starts when you try to find that person yourself on job boards or social media. Portfolios are polished beyond recognition, references are hard to confirm, and nobody reviews the output or does anything when the freelancer goes dark halfway through.
We handle the vetting for you. A specialist only gets in after a portfolio review, a knowledge test, a hands-on assignment, an interview and a reference check. Instead of scrolling through dozens of profiles, you meet one matched person, or a small team, who has already worked in your industry and can talk within 24 hours.
A senior project manager with 15+ years in marketing stays on the project, signs off on each milestone and acts when quality or pace slips. You get the oversight you'd expect from a company and the flexibility of working with one independent pro. Our how it works page lays out the full process.
Side by side
A freelance marketing platform, a referral, an agency or a matched specialist
A freelancer a friend recommended
The referral speaks to one project, not to your industry, so a good fit is mostly chance and no one checks the portfolio.
A marketing agency
A bigger bill that pays for office space, salespeople and margin, and your campaign often goes to whoever is free that month.
A specialist matched through us
One vetted person chosen for your sector within 24 hours, with a confirmed portfolio, and a project manager with 15+ years in the field overseeing everything.
Step by step
How your specialist gets matched
Step 1
We talk through your project
On a free call, we cover scope, industry and budget, and whether you need one channel handled or broader marketing help.
Step 2
The project manager makes the match
You receive the profile of one vetted freelancer with real work in your industry, not a bare resume with nothing behind it.
Step 3
You talk, then decide
You speak with that person for free, on your own schedule. The decision is yours, and the project manager explains why this match suits your goal.
Step 4
Work begins with oversight
From kickoff on, the person who made the match joins every milestone, catches a missed date or a sloppy draft early and fixes it while it's still small.
Who it's for
Who this setup works for
It suits companies that want to talk directly with the person doing the work and keep the scope flexible.
Small companies watching every dollar
A full-time hire or an agency is out of reach, but you need one specific job done well at a fair price.
Online stores
You need someone for product campaigns or store SEO who understands ecommerce and is measured on results.
Startups testing their marketing
You want proof a channel works before building a team around it, and an independent specialist lets you test without a long commitment.
Companies a freelancer has burned before
Someone already vanished on you mid-project. This time you want a vetted specialist and one person who is accountable for the engagement and lines up a backup if needed.
Agencies looking for a subcontractor
You need a freelancer for one job outside your own specialty, with full confidentiality and simple billing.
What you get
What you get when freelance digital marketing services come through us
Instead of searching on your own, you get vetting that's already done, a match based on your industry and oversight from a senior project manager.
A verified portfolio and references
We confirm identity and real results before anyone joins, so you're not taking the freelancer's word for it.
A match for your industry
We pick someone for your scope and sector who has done similar work, not whichever freelancer happened to be free that week.
Backup that keeps the history
If things don't work out, the project manager finds a replacement and passes along every agreement and file, so you never start over.
Someone to call when there's a disagreement
When the work drifts from the plan, you have a person to turn to. The project manager mediates and, if it comes to that, brings in someone new.
Worth knowing
What a freelance marketer costs
These ranges reflect the US freelance market and depend on the consultant's experience and how much work you hand off.
A single task
$75 to $200 an hour for an audit, a consultation or a one-time job. You're billed hourly, with no subscription, and the scope and deadline are set up front.
Ongoing work on one channel
From about $1,500 a month for one specialist who handles a single area on a steady basis, such as freelance social media marketing or paid campaigns.
Several channels at once
From about $3,500 a month for specialists matched to different channels, say search ads plus freelance email marketing, all following one plan with shared reporting.
What you can count on
Peace of mind: a vetted freelancer, a careful match and a project manager
Every specialist we introduce has passed a portfolio review, and a project manager oversees the engagement and settles disputes when they come up.
Portfolio
Vetted before the first task
We confirm identity, portfolio and real results before a freelancer joins, so the work you see is theirs and hasn't been dressed up.
Scope fit
Chosen for your industry
You get someone matched to your sector, scope and budget, not the first contractor who's free on a job board.
15+ years
Oversight and mediation from one person
A project manager with more than 15 years in marketing follows your project and settles any point of dispute fairly.
No gaps
No stall if someone drops out
Illness or a departure won't freeze your project. We match a replacement who takes over the entire history of the work.
Checklist
How to size up a freelance digital marketing consultant
Before you start, check a few things that separate a dependable freelancer from a roll of the dice.
Checklist
- Get real projects with measurable outcomes, not a string of job titles
- Ask to speak with a company where they handled a similar scope for several months
- Settle how and when each milestone gets paid before any work starts
- Ask who steps in if the freelancer gets sick or stops answering
- Expect reports that show outcomes, not vague claims about reach
- Make sure they know how your industry works and don't just run a template

FAQ
Questions companies ask us
Short answers. The free analysis call covers anything specific to your company.
01How much does a freelance marketing consultant cost?
In the US, a single task billed hourly runs $75 to $200 an hour, and steady work on one channel usually starts around $1,500 a month. Several channels at once generally start near $3,500 a month. You'll get an exact figure after the free consultation.
02How quickly can I hire a freelance marketing consultant through you?
We introduce your matched specialist within 24 hours of the first call about your project. You'll see that person's profile, including real work in your industry, and you can take as long as you need to decide.
03How is this different from a freelancer website?
On an open freelancer site, you vet portfolios yourself and can't be sure the work is real. With us, every freelancer's identity, portfolio and results are verified before they join, the match is made for your industry, and a senior project manager with 15+ years of experience oversees the work. A digital marketing consultant you find this way shows up already vetted.
04Who handles billing when a freelancer works on my project?
You pay us, not an individual on the side, no matter how many freelancers end up on the project. The project manager is your single point of contact for questions about scope, schedule and billing.
05What if the freelancer disappears in the middle of the project?
The project manager reviews every milestone and acts at the first sign of silence, so you're never stuck with half-finished work. If needed, we match a replacement with no extra onboarding charge, and the new person inherits the full project history.
06Can I bring in a freelancer for just one short task?
Yes. We can match a specialist for one short hourly job just as easily as for steady monthly work across several channels. Plenty of companies start with one task and expand once they see how the engagement goes.
