We do what top US, UK, and Australian B2B agencies do. Same scope, same in-house delivery, same standards. At $3,500/month, not $8,000–$15,000.
This isn't "cheaper." It's a different cost base. Senior Chinese talent at Chinese rates, full stack in-house with no agency-of-agencies markup, 20 years of B2B sales experience + 9 years of running mmldigi on top of it. We bill what the work costs us, plus reasonable margin. That's the entire pricing pitch.
Below is the apples-to-apples comparison against a typical US, UK, or AU premium B2B agency. Same deliverables. Same team size. Same in-house full stack. The price difference isn't quality. It's structural.
Custom B2B site build · senior SEO + GEO strategists · paid search team · brand & visual production (often outsourced) · content writing · monthly reporting · same-week response.
What most clients accept as "just what premium B2B costs." Built on Bay Area / London / Sydney real estate, venture-funded overhead, layered subcontractor margins.
Custom B2B site build · senior SEO + GEO strategists · paid search team · brand & visual production fully in-house · content writing · monthly reporting · same-week response.
The same scope. Delivered by a sales-trained team in Guangzhou + overseas. No agency-of-agencies markup. No venture-funded overhead. 20 years of B2B sales DNA + 9 years of agency execution.
If you've worked with overseas agencies before, the price gap will feel suspicious. It shouldn't. Here's exactly where the dollars don't go.
Our 40 Guangzhou full-timers and 20 overseas team members are paid fair-market Chinese rates for senior B2B talent. Not Bay Area or London rates. Same caliber, different absolute cost.
Most premium agencies subcontract photography, video, brand design, sometimes even copy. Each subcontractor adds margin. We do all of it in-house. no layered margins, no coordination overhead.
The founding team brought 20 years of B2B sales experience into mmldigi when we started the agency in 2016. And we've been marketing what we used to sell for 9 years since. We've made every mistake. That accumulated efficiency lowers the hours per outcome. Not the quality. Less waste, same result.
The contract has two halves: a flat monthly base for the engine running, plus a per-inquiry layer for the outcomes it produces. Both transparent. No tiers, no upsells, no surprises.
Why this rate: it's what the work actually costs us to do well, plus reasonable margin. No tiers, no upsells designed to push you toward higher price points. Same $3,500 whether you're a $5M business or a $50M one. What changes is the per-inquiry layer below.
Why pay per inquiry: it makes us share the risk of the outcome. We can't bury you in keyword reports while pipeline stays flat. The per-inquiry layer wouldn't earn anything if it did.
The questions we hear most often during evaluation. If yours isn't here, ask on the call.
Yes. For the first 3–4 months, by default. The per-inquiry layer activates after the engine is running, the attribution system is verified, and there's enough inquiry volume for the data to be meaningful. Running per-inquiry billing in month 1 doesn't make sense. There are no inquiries yet, and pretending otherwise would mean inflating the count or running the wrong campaigns to game it. If you'd rather not activate the per-inquiry layer at all, we can run base-only. But the alignment it creates is worth keeping.
Not necessarily. We start every engagement with a free conversion audit. If your site is salvageable, we run on it. If the foundation is unfixable, we'll tell you what the rebuild would cost. But the decision stays yours. We don't run traffic into broken sites, but we also don't force rebuilds on viable ones.
The realistic curve: Months 1–3 are foundation phase. No measurable traffic, no inquiries. This is normal and where most agencies get fired by clients who weren't briefed properly. Months 4–6 see long-tail rankings emerge and impressions climb. Months 6–9 produce early qualified inquiries at light volume. Months 9–12 is when compounding kicks in and inquiry volume becomes meaningful. If an agency tells you they'll deliver qualified B2B inquiries in 90 days, they're either selling paid-only or about to disappoint you.
Our SOW defines "qualified" in writing, with specific tests: contact completeness, RFQ context, sales-team confirmation. If an inquiry doesn't pass, it doesn't bill. Monthly attribution audits are joint. Your sales team reviews and confirms the qualifying flag.
SEO and GEO compound. The first 6 months produce mostly foundation work. Content velocity, technical setup, off-site mention building. The compounding curve starts visibly around month 9–12. 12 months is the floor. But candidly, the meaningful compound shows up in year 2. Year 2 traffic often arrives at 3–5× year 1 levels. Year 3 is defensive. Competitors notice, fight back, you maintain. If you can only commit to 6 months, run paid search instead. And we'll tell you that during the audit. A 6-month engagement on SEO would be both of us paying for the floor and walking away before the compounding starts.
