We work as an extension ofyour team.

Canned Spinach offers eight core services: custom website design and development, SEO and local search, fractional CMO leadership, branding and brand identity, graphic design, social media strategy and management, site maintenance (hosting, security, and ongoing support), and paid advertising management. Each is available on its own, but they're built to work together: one Cincinnati-based team creating your brand, your website, and the marketing engine that drives them. You can select any or all of them.

As a guide: brand identity projects typically start around $5,000; websites run from $5,000 starter sites to $150,000 strategic builds, with custom projects starting at $15,000; SEO retainers start around $1,000 per month; social media management starts at $1,500 per month; website care plans start at $199 per month; and fractional CMO engagements start around $3,000 per month. Every engagement gets a fixed, transparent proposal up front, so you know exactly what you are investing before we begin.

Think of it as a growth flywheel. Fractional CMO strategy defines where you're going, branding defines who you are, your website turns attention into leads, SEO keeps you visible on Google, graphic design and social media keep your brand in front of the right people, and hosting and maintenance keep it all fast and secure. Because one team handles everything, nothing gets lost between vendors, and every piece reinforces the others.

Absolutely. It's often the smartest way to begin. Many clients start with a brand or website audit, a single design project, or a 90-day social media sprint. You get real results and a feel for how we work; we get to prove ourselves. When you're ready to expand the engagement, we'll already know your business inside and out.

Both. Websites, branding, and design projects are typically fixed-scope, fixed-price engagements. Social media management, fractional CMO services, and website care plans are monthly retainers. Many clients start with a single project, like a new website or brand identity, then keep us on retainer to run and grow it. There are no long-term lock-ins; we earn the retainer month after month.

Most engagements kick off within one to two weeks of a signed proposal. Onboarding starts with a deep-dive session on your business, customers, and goals, followed by access setup for your website, analytics, and social accounts, plus a shared project plan with milestones and a single point of contact. You'll always know what's happening, what's next, and what we need from you.
