Small agency stack

A small team shipping client work: tasks, design, a site, meetings, email, CRM, and marketing.

This page fixes the choices so it can be indexed. Team: 2–5 people. Monthly estimates use 2 people, the low end of this range. Budget: Under $200/mo. Jobs: Tasks and projects, Design, Website, Meetings and notes, Email and newsletter, CRM and sales, SEO and marketing.Change this stack.

Estimated monthly total: $145

Primary picks only. Monthly estimates use 2 people, the low end of this range. Scores use each listing’s categories, use cases, and prices. For a capped budget, the primary picks are the highest-scoring combination that stays within the cap. Ties break by a lower total, then product name. This is not a quality ranking.

Questions

How does this Small agency stack get picked?

Each job keeps the listing with the highest score, plus up to two alternatives. A tool covers a job when its jobs field says so, or, if that field is empty, when one of its categories maps to the job. A role match comes from bestFor, or, if that field is empty, from a fixed map of use cases. Prices come from the listing’s starting price and paid-from fields. The score is not a quality rating, and StackFinds did not test these products against each other.

How is the monthly total calculated?

Monthly estimates use 2 people, the low end of this range. Per-person prices are multiplied by that headcount. The budget is Under $200/mo. Each job may use a free plan at $0 or a verified paid price, and the primary picks are the combination with the highest total score whose prices add up to at most that cap. An annual price that is not already printed as a monthly figure is not converted. If any primary pick lacks a verified monthly price, or a job has no listing that fits, the total says price not confirmed.

How do I share or change this stack?
