About FOR3

What happens when you become a client

A fixed way of working, tailored to your business. You decide; we take the initiative.

  1. 01 · First month

    Understand

    A strategic onboarding: your business, customers, sales process, market and competitors. We measure where you stand and map where growth is possible.

  2. 02 · End of first month

    Prioritise

    We come back with a proposal: the opportunities with the most impact, what we do first and what we deliberately leave. You approve it, and we record it in a growth plan with scope.

  3. 03 · Ongoing

    Build and execute

    We build what the priorities call for and organise the execution. You don't need to manage us.

  4. 04 · Every month

    Evaluate and improve

    Every month we explain what worked, what didn't, why, and what we'll change, with a proposal for the next priorities.

How we think

An example of a monthly analysis

Illustrative example, no client data.

An example of a monthly analysisExample
What do we see?
The campaigns generate enquiries, but a relatively small share becomes a customer.
What does it mean?
The bottleneck may be in qualification or follow-up, not necessarily in reach.
What do we advise?
First look into the enquiry and follow-up process, before spending more ad budget.
What will we do?
Add the most important improvements to the growth plan. You approve the priorities.

Three things you can expect from FOR3

01

Strategy

We examine your situation and advise on what deserves priority. Even when the answer is: do less.

02

Execution

We deliver the agreed work according to a shared growth plan, within a scope agreed up front.

03

Accountability

We discuss what happened, what it delivered and what we change next. We keep measured and attributed results apart.

Monthly costs compared

What does growth cost per month?

Three ways to organise marketing, side by side. Indicative monthly costs, excluding VAT and media budget.

FOR3 GROWTHFixed monthly fee · 18-month initial term
€995/ month
Marketing agencyIndicative agency package
€4,000/ month
In-house marketing teamExample staffing 2 FTE, four disciplines
€10,177/ month
  • €3,005 difference in monthly costs compared with the agency example.
  • €9,182 difference in monthly costs compared with the example in-house staffing.

See assumptions and sources
  • FOR3 GROWTH: €995 per month excl. VAT, 18-month initial term, monthly cancellation thereafter. Strategic advice and prioritised execution within a scope and capacity agreed up front.
  • Marketing agency: indicative agency package based on Searchlab's published package prices: €3,000 (two), €4,000 (three) and €5,000 (four execution lines) per month; media budget and tools separate. This is not a Dutch market average. The scope of work differs per provider; website development is not automatically included. For comparison, KemX cites €2,500 to €5,000 per month for an agency on retainer.
  • In-house team: example staffing of 2.0 FTE across four disciplines, using average 2026 gross monthly salaries from Intermediair: online marketer €3,850 (1.0 FTE), marketing manager €4,461 (0.5 FTE), web developer €3,597 (0.25 FTE) and graphic designer €3,396 (0.25 FTE).
  • Calculation: gross salary costs = sum of (FTE × gross monthly salary) = €7,828.75. Total staff costs = gross × (1 + surcharge) = €10,177 at a 30% surcharge.
  • The 30% surcharge is an assumption for employer costs such as holiday pay (8%), employer contributions and pension. Ondernemersplein lists these components but no total percentage. Actual costs vary by employer, collective agreement, pension scheme and terms of employment.
  • Not included: software, recruitment, workplace and other business costs (in-house team); media budget and external costs (all options); VAT.
  • Capacity differs: a 2 FTE in-house team has considerably more human capacity than a GROWTH partnership, and an agency package has its own scope. The difference in monthly costs is therefore not a guaranteed saving.

Questions business owners actually ask

Is FOR3 a marketing agency?

FOR3 is a strategic growth partner. There are excellent agencies; what sets us apart is that strategy and execution are never separated. We don't wait for loose tasks, but research where the biggest opportunities are and organise the execution within one connected approach.

What does it cost?

GROWTH is €995 per month excl. VAT, with an 18-month initial term and monthly cancellation thereafter. Ad budgets, external software, hosting and third-party production run separately. PERFORMANCE and CUSTOM are on the pricing page.

Who is FOR3 not a fit for?

Businesses still looking for product-market fit, or that mainly want quick results from a single campaign. A long-term partner is not the best choice then.

Do I have to buy everything from you?

No. We only do what adds value. No mandatory website, CRM or rebrand if it does not move you forward.

Do you use AI?

Yes. AI speeds up the work; people safeguard strategy, creativity and quality, and check what goes out the door.

Do you guarantee results?

No. We promise a partner that pursues the agreed goals and shows transparently what happens. We keep measured and attributed results apart.

Beyond the day-to-day. Built for what's next.

Grow with direction.

One conversation is enough to know whether FOR3 is a fit.
