Equity in Action

Flexible Pricing for Inclusive Access

Sliding Scale Pricing

At Más Marketing + Co., we believe that high-quality storytelling, branding, and marketing should be accessible to mission-driven nonprofits and small businesses alike—especially those led by people of color, women, and queer folks who often face the most systemic barriers to success.

Whether you're a volunteer-run nonprofit, a solo entrepreneur, or a community-rooted startup, we know that the distribution of wealth and resources is not equitable. Community-led organizations are routinely underfunded, and entrepreneurs from historically excluded communities often start with fewer financial safety nets. That doesn’t mean their work is any less valuable—in fact, it’s often the most powerful.

That’s why we offer a self-selected sliding scale, rooted in trust, transparency, and mutual respect. This model invites clients to choose the tier that most closely matches their financial reality. We ask those with greater economic privilege to pay the full cost of services so that we can continue offering discounted rates to those who need them most. And we hope that as your organization or business grows, you’ll move closer to the 100% tier—paying it forward to help others access equitable marketing support.

We can’t remove every systemic barrier, but this is one we can flex to meet people where they are.

Please Note: Depending on the project’s scope, complexity, or timeline, additional fees may apply. We’ll align on all final details—including budget, timeline, and deliverables—before moving forward with a signed agreement.

Tier 1: Full Cost of Services (100%)

$120–$150 per hour

This tier reflects the full value of our services, including strategic expertise, dedicated project management, and high-quality execution. It’s designed for established organizations with consistent funding or revenue and the ability to invest in robust marketing, communications, or consulting services.

This tier is a good fit if your organization:

  • Has an annual budget exceeding $500,000

  • Operates with stable or recurring funding (e.g. grants, contracts, revenue streams)

  • Has worked with external consultants or creative agencies in the past

  • Can allocate funds for strategic or capacity-building initiatives

  • Prioritizes high-quality deliverables and long-term impact

Tier 2: Mid-Range / Shared-Cost Tier (75–85%)

$95–$115 per hour

This tier is intended for mission-aligned organizations that have moderate budgets or are in a growth phase. It offers access to our full range of services at a rate that balances affordability with sustainability. We reserve a limited number of Tier 2 slots for organizations doing meaningful community work that may not have the same financial capacity as larger institutions.

This tier is a good fit if your organization:

  • Has an annual budget between $200,000–$500,000

  • Has some experience working with external consultants or contractors

  • Can allocate funding toward marketing, outreach, or capacity-building efforts

  • Is committed to collaboration but may have limited internal staff or resources

Tier 3: Community Partner / Subsidized Tier (50–65%)

$75–$90 per hour

This tier is designed for grassroots organizations, early-stage nonprofits, or community-led initiatives operating on limited budgets. We offer this rate to ensure that important work is not excluded from high-quality support due to funding limitations.

This tier may be a good fit if your organization:

  • Has an annual budget under $200,000

  • Operates with limited or project-specific grant funding

  • Has minimal staff or is volunteer-led

  • Would not be able to access this level of service without reduced pricing

Can’t Afford These Tiers? Let’s Talk.

We understand that even with this sliding scale, our services may still be out of reach for some. If that’s you—we see you. We’re open to tiered, phased, or pay-as-you-go approaches that meet your needs and respect your reality.

This could look like:

  • Completing one core project now (e.g., logo, messaging, or website audit)

  • Returning later for additional phases when your cash flow increases

  • Spacing out deliverables over time to make payments manageable

Our goal is to be a long-term partner, not just a one-time vendor. Let’s work together to build something sustainable—at a pace that works for you.
