What it costs to market your business with PrivateChief
Marketing your business with PrivateChief costs one PrivateChief membership. $199 a month covers your household and any number of businesses, each with its own Chief, on one dedicated server that PrivateChief hosts, patches, monitors and backs up for you. Setup is $299, once, and includes a book about your business.
One membership. Your household and every business.
plus $299 setup, once
- Every business you run, each in its own separate workspace with its own Chief, at no extra membership cost
- Each business includes one brand in every marketing tool
- The setup includes a book about your business, published free as an ebook and an AI-narrated audiobook
- Your household too, with its own Personal Chief, if you like
- A dedicated server PrivateChief hosts, patches, monitors and backs up for you, with 25 GB of storage included
- No annual commitment and no cancellation fee
When the monthly membership starts
You pay the fixed $299 setup online, and your $199 monthly membership starts only when your Chief is live.
Refunds
In PrivateChief's own words: “If you cancel before your Chief is live, we refund the $299 setup in full and your membership never starts. Cancel within 30 days of the day it goes live and we refund the $299 and your first month. Metered AI usage is not part of the refund, and setup work we carry out in person at your home is work done and is not refunded.”
AI capacity is separate
The monthly price covers the managed service, not the AI capacity your Chiefs use. You can connect your own paid OpenAI account and pay OpenAI directly, or let PrivateChief supply the capacity at its cost plus thirty percent. Either way, some capacity, voice mainly, is always metered at cost plus thirty percent.
What the marketing tools include
Each business includes one brand in every marketing tool: Press (press releases written for you, approved by you and pitched to journalists, by PitchBud), SEO (a weekly website check-up, your score over time and ranked fixes, by TrafficBud), Podcasts (an interview each month on AIHosts.fm, plus pitches to established shows), Social Media, Ads, Outreach, Direct Mail, Source Desk, Mentions and Email Lists.
Your book, included in the setup
The $299 setup includes a promotional book for your business: a short, useful ebook in your field and an AI-narrated audiobook of it, with you as the author. You approve the outline and the manuscript, and nothing is published until you say so. It is published free in Apple Books, Google Play, Kobo, Scribd, and Barnes & Noble and libraries through Ingram, and the audiobook in audiobook stores through InAudio, though not Audible. We do not send it to Amazon. See the book we made for BusinessMarketing.Pro.
Ad spend
Ads is included in the PrivateChief Business membership at no extra charge. Google and Meta bill your ad spend directly to your own payment method, in your own ad accounts; PrivateChief never handles it and charges no fee on it.
