Apr. 2020Roanoke, Virginia, United StatesTransparent Pricing for Digital Marketing Services in Virginia and Remotely Most marketing agencies price with a complicated equation involving estimated hours, deliverables, perceived value, skills involved, and the alignment of the stars and planets. By the time they bring you a proposal with a price ticket, you have no way of knowing if you’re paying too much or not getting enough. Roava Digital is the premier choice for digital marketing services in Virginia. We make pricing simple, customizable, and transparent with our Digital Marketing Hour Blocks. Here’s how it works: - Buy a block of hours (5, 10, 20, or 40). - Use those hours for ANY combination of digital marketing services we provide. (That’s it. That’s our pricing model.)
