FAQs
What does it cost to work with Path & Compass?
Most clients invest around $3500/month for an ongoing Marketing Partnership – getting a full digital marketing team for less than the cost of a single in-house hire, already specialized in the wedding and event industry. Ad spend in addition to these fees. For brand and website projects, most clients invest around $12000 for a comprehensive, turnkey build, with packages starting at $7605. Every engagement is scoped to what your business actually needs, so the first step is a conversation.
Do you work with my competitors?
No. Once we've established an ongoing partnership with you, we don't take on direct competitors in your market. For us, loyalty is a core value. While our work with event and wedding businesses across the U.S., creates great synergy and shared industry insight across our client base, we don't work with more than one rental company, event venue, caterer or otherwise in the same market at the same time.
Do you provide the strategy only, or do you also handle execution?
We do both! We don’t just tell you what to do – we roll up our sleeves and make it happen. From strategy development to ad management, SEO, email marketing, and website updates, we oversee & manage the implementation under our ongoing retainer.
What is the onboarding process like?
We start with a deep dive into your business – analyzing your current marketing, identifying opportunities and key markets as well as understanding your company & goals. Then, we build a customized strategy and action plan to implement the Five-Path Framework. From there, we move into execution and ongoing strategic guidance & optimization.

The Path & Compass team took care of the rebrand and website build for my company and did a fantastic job! Throughout the process they made things easy, delivered more than expected, and were always ahead of or on schedule. I am very happy to have worked with them and consider them to be a continued asset to my business. Thank you!
