ONE PLATFORM VS. SEPARATE TOOLS

The subscriptions add up. So do the handoffs.

Here is one example of buying separate tools for five core jobs. Then compare the larger LDB service stack below.

Example software stack · USD · checked September 26, 2026
Capability	Example alternative	Separate subscription	LDB Starter
Funnels, pages, email and courses	ClickFunnels Launch	$97/moMonthly; one workspace	Included capability*
Scheduling and reminders	Calendly Standard	$10/moOne seat; annual billing	Included capability*
Social scheduling	Buffer Essentials	$15/moThree channels at $5 each; annual billing	Included capability*
Review requests and reputation	NiceJob Starter	$75/moMonthly	Included capability*
Shared inbox and AI support access	Intercom Essential	$29/moOne seat; annual billing; Fin usage extra	Included capability*
Five-tool subscription example		$226/month equivalent	$97/month billed monthly

*Comparable capability categories, not identical products or feature limits. These are selected public entry plans, not every tool you must buy. Some vendors offer free tiers. Annual prices require annual payment; the total mixes stated monthly and annual equivalents. AI, messages, calls, taxes, implementation and other usage are excluded on both sides. Starter usage is separate. No claim that every business saves this amount.

ClickFunnels is counted once for its combined tools; overlapping email, funnel and course subscriptions are not added again. Vendor names and icons identify comparison examples and do not imply endorsement.

THE FULL MOMENTUM SUITE

What would it take to assemble this separately?

Illustrative monthly planning values, not vendor quotes or guaranteed savings. BuzzPixel is proprietary to Local Digital Buzz; its $1,000 is an internal value allocation. Replace other allowances with your actual quotes and avoid overlapping scopes. Books and podcasts are included within the scheduled production allowance.

Your planning-value scenario$21,600/mo

Momentum monthly planning amount

One $10,000/month budget for the agreed marketing plan.

Budget difference in this scenario$11,600/mo

This illustration allocates $5,000 of Momentum’s $10,000 budget to media. Match the advertising allocation on both sides before comparing. Marketing-team work, advertising dollars, leadership and software are included in the $10,000 budget; no additional fees for those categories. Production volume, schedule and allocation are agreed before work begins. No automatic claim of unlimited usage or guaranteed editorial placement. Avoid counting overlapping software or services twice when entering your separate supplier costs.

About these planning values

These rounded Local Digital Buzz estimates are not competitor quotes or redeemable credits. The monthly comparison already includes a scheduled production allowance; these values are not added again.

Clear terms. Confident next steps.

What are my two payment options?

Starter: $97 monthly or $997 annually. Growth: $1,497 quarterly or $5,797 annually. Momentum: $10,000 monthly for the initial 90 days or $28,500 for that quarter paid upfront. Compare the packages and payment choices.

Which package includes the two-week trial?

Starter includes a 14-day software trial on either payment option. Your selected $97 monthly or $997 annual subscription begins after the trial unless canceled. Metered calls, messages and AI usage are separate. Review Starter trial enrollment.

What does the 30-day money-back guarantee cover?

Starter and Growth include a 30-day money-back guarantee on the membership payment. Request your refund through our team within 30 days of your first membership payment. For Starter, that payment follows the 14-day trial. Read the guarantee details and contact options.

Is advertising spend included in Momentum?

Yes. Your agreed Momentum budget includes advertising spend, software, the marketing team, project management and CMO leadership. The strategy determines media allocation and the production schedule. Review Momentum qualification and terms.

Is the Momentum ROI promise a money-back guarantee?

No. Momentum has a separate 90-day ROI commitment: if the agreed return is not achieved, we keep working under the written continuation terms. It requires a strategy session and acceptance; there is no public checkout. Book your strategy session.

Do I have to replace every tool at once?

No. Start with the biggest missed opportunity. We review what to keep, connect, or migrate and plan the transition before making changes.
