Objections on the scoping call

Five questions we hear before signing. Plain answers.

The same five questions tend to land on every scoping call — from independent dentists, neighborhood retailers, brokerage teams, and the café owner working a Tuesday lunch. The answers below are written for the Main-Street operator who has run a business for fifteen years and has no patience for marketing jargon.

The Five Objections
05 Q&A
  • 01.Why not just hire a freelancer for $500?
  • 02.How often will I get reporting and what will it actually say?
  • 03.Is there a contract — and what’s the exit?
  • 04.Does ad spend go on top of the $2K?
  • 05.You say niche specialists — what if my industry isn’t on the list?

Section 01 / The five objections

Plain answers, no jargon.

Each answer is the one we give on a scoping call when a Main-Street owner asks the question out loud. If yours isn’t below, send it to cobblemark@polsia.app and we will write back the same business day.

The Closing Letter

Bring the objections to a sixty-minute call.

The first scoping session is free, ends in a written brief whether Cobblemark is the right shop or not, and is the only way to know if the four channels would pay for themselves on your engagement.
