Scope & Investment

Pricing for Lead & Revenue Systems

We no longer sell this like every job is the same brochure site. Use this page to understand the likely fit, starting investment, and support level for your stage of business. Final scope is confirmed after a proper review.

How to Read This

Starting investment, not fake precision

These numbers are commercial starting points so you can self-qualify without a vague “call us for everything” dance.

The ladder is simple: audit when diagnosis is the product, build when the website is the main asset, system scope when lead routing and operations matter.

Exact pricing depends on scope, integrations, content readiness, and how much operational clean-up is involved.

The audit is deliberately paid and creditable: if you move into a build or system project within 14 days, the NZ$499 goes into that next scope.

Primary Proof

Best Contractors first

Best Contractors is still the clearest commercial proof of the direction: stronger lead capture, cleaner routing, and less admin drag.

Execution Proof

CozyBNB second

CozyBNB stays in the story as careful migration and implementation proof where build quality really matters.

Offer Ladder

Choose the Right Path

The public offer now works like a ladder: diagnose first when reality is unclear, move into a lead-ready build when the website itself is the bottleneck, and only step into system scope when handoff or automation genuinely affects revenue.

Start Here

Lead-Ready Website Audit

A grounded review of what is leaking trust, enquiry quality, or follow-up speed right now.

Typical starting investment

NZ$499

Creditable into a later build or system if you proceed within 14 days.

Best fit: Best when you already have traffic or referrals, but the website and handoff feel messy.

Why it exists: This gives you a commercial diagnosis first, rather than pretending a templated package solves every problem.

Commercial model: Fixed-price diagnostic. If you proceed into a build or revenue-system implementation within 14 days, the $499 audit fee is credited into that next project.

Scope note: Good fit when you want clarity before committing to a bigger build — and the audit is creditable for 14 days if we implement the next step.

Core Build

Lead-Ready Website Build

A custom website built around trust, enquiry quality, and a cleaner sales handoff.

Typical starting investment

NZ$4,995+ GST

Ongoing care usually starts from NZ$79/mo

Best fit: Best for owner-led service businesses that need the website to work harder than a brochure.

Why it exists: This is the honest middle path: still commercially useful, but not pretending every build is the same scope.

Commercial model: Custom build starting point. We confirm scope after reviewing your pages, proof assets, content readiness, and whether any integrations are needed.

Scope note: Most projects land here once the scope is clear. Final pricing depends on page count, proof depth, integrations, and content readiness.

Custom site structure shaped around your real services and buyer questions
Clear CTA paths, stronger proof placement, and enquiry forms that capture useful detail
Performance-first build with SEO foundations and AI-ready content structure
Launch support plus a managed hosting/care path after go-live

Growth System

Lead Flow & Revenue System

For operators who need the site, forms, routing, and operational logic to work together.

Typical starting investment

NZ$10,000+ GST

Ongoing care usually starts from NZ$149/mo

Best fit: Best for businesses already generating demand and now needing stronger qualification, automation, or internal handoff.

Why it exists: This is the closest public path to the Best Contractors story: better lead capture, cleaner routing, less manual admin.

Commercial model: Strategic system scope. Final investment is shaped around the automation depth, handoff complexity, and revenue risk sitting behind the website.

Scope note: This is scoped after a fit review. Exact pricing depends on automation depth, systems involved, and how much operational cleanup is needed.

Hosting & Care

Keep the System Healthy

Public care is anchored around three tiers so buyers can self-qualify fast. If the build carries more operational weight, we recommend deeper support after the review instead of pretending every monthly plan fits every system.

For Audit Follow-Through

Lean Care

NZ$49/mo

Lean follow-up support after an audit or small clean-up pass.

  • Fast hosting, SSL, and uptime monitoring
  • Daily backups and safe deploy history
  • Routine content updates included
  • Priority email support

Performance Plus

NZ$79/mo

The default care tier for most lead-ready website builds.

  • Everything in Lean Care
  • Multi-page performance optimisation
  • Monthly site-health review
  • Content updates included
Choose Performance Plus
For Growth Systems

System Signature

NZ$149/mo

White-glove care for revenue-system builds with deeper operational importance.

  • Everything in Performance Plus

  • Founder-led support access
Choose System Signature

Unlimited content updates cover text changes, image swaps, and routine content support. Larger structural changes or new features are billed separately at NZ$120/h.

CMS-heavy, eCommerce, and deeper operational support can sit above these public anchors and are recommended after review when the system matters more than simple hosting.

Specialist Support

Extra Scope When You Need It

For work that sits beside the main build rather than inside a flat package promise. Tactical channel setup and admin tasks are handled in proposals or add-ons when relevant, not as the main public pricing story.

eCommerce Support / RetainerNZ$120/hour

Hands-on support, fixes, and implementation work.

Website Performance OptimisationNZ$2,500

Speed, Lighthouse, Core Web Vitals, and technical cleanup.

Bespoke front-end, internal tooling, or specialised workflow work that sits beyond the main website scope.

Headless CMS Setup

NZ$3,000 - NZ$8,000

Ongoing Maintenance

NZ$350 - NZ$950/mo

Ongoing improvement, support, and operational coverage.
