Most clients pay from £350 per month on a rolling, month-to-month basis with no long-term contracts. Norton typically works with around 10 businesses at any one time, dedicating roughly half a day every fortnight to each client. Scope is agreed upfront with transparent pricing and no hidden fees.

New clients start with an initial conversation (in person in Belper or via video call) to understand the business, goals, and current challenges. Norton then builds a tailored marketing plan and begins executing it as part of the client's team.
