Services
Two ways to work together. Both start the same way: we help you think it through, then we build it.
Embedded Team · ongoing
We join your team as the brand, marketing, tech and finance people you don’t have yet, and run it with you every month.
One person owns your plan and coordinates the whole team.
Predictable cost, and no juggling vendor invoices.
Tied to your goals, reviewed together, adjusted as you grow.
| Criteria | Full in-house team | Separate agencies & freelancers | Catalead Embedded Team |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cost | Several salaries plus benefits | Multiple retainers and invoices | Roughly the cost of one hire |
| Coordination | You manage the team | You’re the glue between vendors | One point of contact |
| Strategy + execution | Depends on who you hire | Often split across vendors | Same team thinks it through and builds it |
| Finance included | Separate hire | Separate firm | Included (tax excluded) |
| Leadership time | Hiring and managing | Chasing and reconciling | Back on operations, sales and growth |
Projects · scoped
Strategy and execution for one outcome. Fixed scope, timeline and price, so you know exactly what you’re getting.
New sites and high-converting pages, designed and built end to end.
Custom tools, online stores and the systems behind them.
From name and identity to launch-day site and campaign.
Including high-stakes launches like Super Bowl landing pages.
We define the outcome, deliverables, timeline and a fixed price together.
Strategy first, then design and build, with clear check-ins along the way.
We ship it, make sure it performs, and hand it over cleanly, or keep running it with you.
FAQ
Not sure which path fits? The free Catalyst Report scores your business across five pillars and suggests where to start.
Instead of hiring a marketer, a designer, a developer and a bookkeeper, you get the combined capability of that team through one monthly retainer that’s in the range of a single full-time hire. The plan scales with your goals.
No. Our finance and accounting support covers bookkeeping, reconciliation and reporting so you have clear numbers. Tax preparation and filing are excluded. We’re happy to work alongside your tax professional.
Growing and established organizations: founder-led businesses, operators who’ve been at it for decades, nonprofits and ministries, and creators building a personal brand. What they share is that the work has outgrown the team.
If you need ongoing marketing, web and finance capacity, the Embedded Team fits. If you have one defined build with a clear finish line, like a new site, a launch or a campaign, start with a Project. You can always start with a project and move to an embedded team later. The free Catalyst Report can help you decide.
Yes. Embedded clients get one point of contact who owns the monthly plan and coordinates everyone working on your account, so you never have to manage a roster of freelancers.
