Price your marketing services with confidence. Enter your unit cost, target margin and fees to get a suggested retail price that protects your profit.

Margin vs. markup — the classic trap

Margin is profit as a share of the selling price; markup is profit as a share of cost. A 100% markup is only a 50% margin. Pricing by the wrong one is the fastest way to sell a lot and earn a little.

Frequently asked questions

What margin should I target for marketing services?

It depends on volume and support load. Many service sellers target 30–60% margin; high-touch agency work often runs higher than automated services.

Why does the calculator divide instead of add?

Adding a 40% margin to cost gives you a 28.6% margin at that price. Dividing cost by (1 − margin) gives you the price that actually yields your target margin.

Should fees be added before or after margin?

This calculator prices fees on top so your margin survives processing costs. For high-fee channels, consider charging fees separately or baking them into the price.
