A full marketing team. For the price of one employee.
Hiring a marketing team takes 12+ months and costs $500K+ in salaries before you've run a single campaign. We've already assembled the team — senior operators across paid media, SEO, email, social, and content — and you get all of them for less than one senior marketing hire would cost you per year.
Hiring a marketing team is a $500K problem.
A real marketing team isn't one person — it's five. A CMO to set strategy. A paid media specialist to run ads. An SEO lead to drive organic. An email marketer to own retention. A content creator to feed everything else. Each one is a six-figure hire. Each one takes months to find. And once they're hired, you still need someone to make them work together.
Marketing Team in a Box skips all of that. We've already assembled the team — battle-tested senior operators who've worked together for years and know how to run a marketing system that compounds. You hire one retainer and get every role, every channel, every output of a real marketing department.
No recruiting fees. No equity grants. No 12-month ramp. No risk of a bad hire. Just a working team that starts producing inside of a week.
Five senior roles. All included.
Here's the team you'd otherwise need to recruit, interview, hire, onboard, and manage — already assembled, already working together, already accountable for your results.
Senior Marketing Lead
Owns the strategy, the roadmap, and the accountability. Functions like your CMO without the title or the salary.
Paid Media Specialist
Runs your Meta, Google, TikTok, and YouTube ads. Tests creative, optimizes spend, scales what works, kills what doesn't.
SEO Lead
Owns your organic growth. Keyword strategy, on-page optimization, technical SEO, and the link building that gets you ranking.
Email Marketer
Builds and runs your retention engine. Welcome flows, abandoned cart, post-purchase, and the campaigns that turn buyers into repeat buyers.
Social Media Manager
Owns your organic social presence. Content calendar, posting cadence, community management, and the brand consistency that supports paid.
Creative + Content
Produces the ad creative, landing pages, content, and brand assets that feed every other channel. Quarterly content days included.
One retainer. The whole team.
Marketing Team in a Box is $13,500/mo — flat. One retainer replaces every vendor. That includes the highest tier of every service we offer, the Elevate intelligence ecosystem connecting all of them, a quarterly content day, and dedicated senior marketing leadership overseeing everything.
No setup fees. No lock-in contracts. Cancel with 30 days notice. Scope is built around your business — we start with an Elevate audit of everything you're currently running, then build the system around your actual gaps and goals.
Every service is available standalone. Start with Paid Social, Email, or SEO — and add services as you grow.

From kickoff to a fully running growth operation — here's how the first 90 days unfold.
Week 1: Deep Audit
We audit every channel, account, and asset you have. Ad accounts, email platform, site analytics, competitor positioning — full picture before strategy.
Week 2: Elevate Audit
We run your data through Elevate — scoring every channel, identifying revenue gaps, and ranking priorities by impact. This becomes the strategic foundation for everything we build.
Week 3–4: Build & Launch
Campaigns go live, flows are built, content calendar is set, SEO execution begins. Full operational across every channel within 30 days of kickoff.
Month 2+: Optimize & Scale
Weekly reporting. Monthly executive reviews. Continuous testing. Budget follows what works — and the Elevate intelligence layer gets smarter every month.

Powered by Elevate
The difference between five vendors and one system.
When you hire five separate agencies — one for ads, one for SEO, one for email, one for social — none of them talk to each other. Your paid social team doesn't know what your SEO content is targeting. Your email flows aren't aligned with your ad creative. Every channel operates in isolation and performance suffers because of it.
Marketing Team in a Box clients get Elevate — Basecamp23's proprietary AI-powered ecosystem that connects every channel under a single intelligence layer. Your audience data, consumer behavior signals, and performance insights flow across every campaign. Ad creative informs content. SEO data shapes email. Social performance feeds paid targeting. Everything compounds.
