ENTRY

Outbound Foundation

$2,500 / month

22 verified client reviews used this tier

Cold email infrastructure, copywriting, and human reply management. The entry tier — sending domain setup, deliverability monitoring, and qualified meeting handoff. Single-channel (email only).

What's included

Dedicated sending domains and inbox warmup
ICP definition and list sourcing
Cold email copywriting and A/B testing
Human reply triage (no auto-responders)
Meeting handoff to your calendar
Weekly reporting on opens, replies, booked meetings

Best fit

B2B sellers with clearly defined ICPs, a working offer, and budget for ~3-6 month commitment. Good for: SaaS founders, professional services firms, agencies, and local trade contractors testing the channel before scaling.

Not for

Companies pre-product-market-fit, sub-$2,000/month outbound budget, or buyer profiles that require LinkedIn or calling to be reached at all (e.g., CFOs, platform engineers, senior security leaders).

MOST COMMON

Multi-Channel Pipeline

$4,500 / month

9 verified client reviews used this tier

Everything in Foundation plus LinkedIn outreach, SMS, list enrichment, and meeting qualification. Two-to-three channels orchestrated against the same accounts.

What's included

Everything in Foundation, plus:
LinkedIn connection requests + DM sequences
SMS outreach to verified commercial contacts (where compliant)
Manual list enrichment beyond standard data sources
Meeting qualification before calendar handoff
Per-channel performance reporting

Best fit

B2B sellers whose buyer ignores cold email by default (CFOs, controllers, technical leaders, property managers) or who compete in saturated categories where multi-touch is required to break through.

Not for

Single-buyer-persona sellers where email alone produces enough pipeline — paying for channels you don't need.

What's included

Everything in Multi-Channel Pipeline, plus:
Dedicated cold calling team
WhatsApp outreach (where appropriate)
SDR-style account ownership and follow-up cadences
Advanced pipeline reporting integrated with your CRM
Custom playbooks per buyer persona

Best fit

Series B+ B2B SaaS scaling outbound from internal SDR plateaus, professional services targeting senior executives, or multi-trade commercial firms that need a steerable, multi-channel pipeline.

Not for

Companies at sub-$50k MRR or pre-Series A — the cost commitment rarely makes sense at that stage.

Pricing FAQs

Common pricing questions before booking a discovery call.

How much does SmarterOutbound cost?

Three published tiers: Outbound Foundation at $2,500/month (cold email only), Multi-Channel Pipeline at $4,500/month (email + LinkedIn + SMS), and Full Outbound Engine at custom pricing (all five channels including cold calling and WhatsApp, with SDR-style support). Custom pricing typically lands in the $8k-$15k/month range depending on volume and channel mix.

Is there a setup fee?

Per public information, no separate setup fee is published. The first 1-3 weeks of any engagement are infrastructure setup (Build phase) — domains, warmup, ICP definition, copy drafting — included in the monthly fee. Campaigns start sending in the Launch phase (weeks 2-3).

What's the minimum commitment?

Not publicly disclosed. Most outbound agency engagements run 3-6 month minimums because the channel needs that much time to ramp and iterate. Ask during discovery.

Can I start on Foundation and upgrade to Multi-Channel later?

Yes — based on client reviews on this site, several started on the Foundation tier and added LinkedIn or calling once the first channel was producing meetings. Adding channels increases the monthly fee proportionally.

Is SmarterOutbound worth it for a small business or solo founder?

At sub-$50k MRR or pre-product-market-fit, the engagement cost is typically too high relative to runway. Multiple 2-3 star reviews on this site call this out — the wrong-stage fit is the most common reason for a poor outcome. Consider self-serve tools (Apollo, Lemlist) until you're past that threshold.

How does pricing compare to hiring an internal SDR?

A fully loaded SDR (salary, benefits, tooling, manager time) typically runs $120-150k/year — about $10-12k/month. The Foundation tier at $2,500/month is meaningfully cheaper than one SDR; the Multi-Channel tier at $4,500/month is still cheaper. The Full Outbound Engine custom tier ($8-15k/month) competes with the cost of one fully-loaded SDR but covers more channels and ramps faster (week 4 to first meetings vs 4-6 months for a new hire to reach productivity).
