Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to commonly asked questions about our products and services.
How is herringbone unique from other Small Business marketing agencies?
We base our success on whether we’re improving your business outcomes, not on how many posts we publish each week. Think: outcome over output. We do this by bringing an accountability mindset. We identify measurable targets, propose a strategy, and then partner with you as teammates to get us there.
Who do you work with?
We specialize in helping small businesses and nonprofits that are:
– In a growth stage and ready to scale
– Navigating change (rebrand, expansion, pivot)
– Needing clarity in how their mission, values, and story connect to communication strategies
Our typical clients are founders, CEOs, and nonprofit executive directors who value return on investment, clarity, and partnership.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Washington state, but we work with clients nationwide. For local clients, we offer hybrid engagements, and we love to work in-person when it fits their schedule.
What’s covered by our agreement?
Our agreements cover a scope of services described in our proposals. Any additional services requested beyond scope must be mutually agreed upon and will be billed separately at $125/hour.
Fees do not include costs of paid advertising or marketing assets owned and maintained by your organization (ex: website hosting). We may recommend additional costs, such as advertising, may but these costs will not be incurred without your approval.
How does payment work?
For The Alliance and Momentum, invoices are issued on the first (1st) of each month, with payment due within 30 days of the invoice date. A deposit equal to one month’s retainer fee is due upon signing. This deposit will be applied to the final month of the agreement, provided all invoices are current.
For Foundation, we will invoice you at the end of our project.
Do you guarantee results?
We can’t guarantee results, but we are committed to thoughtful problem solving if we’re not moving toward our goals. It’s important to us that we’re not checking the box and walking away. As partners, we’re deeply invested in getting you a positive return on your investment.
What’s the first step if I’m interested?
The best way to start is with a discovery call. We’ll learn about your goals, challenges, and opportunities, then outline how Herringbone Strategies can help.
