Pricing
A base fee, plus a rate per appointment that shows up.
Updated
CallHush is priced as a base fee plus a rate per qualified appointment that actually shows up. The base fee covers the infrastructure, the script build and its upkeep, the compliance artifacts and the weekly report of what your registrants said; the per-appointment rate is the part that moves with the result. The numbers themselves are not on this page, and that is deliberate — you get them on the call, in the sentence after you ask.
What's the retainer?
You get the number on the call. Not a range, not “it depends”, and not once we have heard what you spend on ads — the moment you ask, in the next sentence. What this page can give you is the part that actually decides whether the arrangement fits your business, which is its shape.
| Line | What it covers | Why it exists |
|---|---|---|
| Base fee | Infrastructure, the script build and its upkeep, the compliance artifacts, and the weekly report of what your registrants said in their own words | Your volume swings for reasons that are not ours. A quiet month for you must not be a zero month for us, and the report has value even in a month where show-up rate disappoints. |
| Per qualified appointment that showed up | The variable half of the invoice, billed on total attended calls rather than on a claimed increase | It is the unit this market already buys in, it is countable without argument, and it scales with your ad spend rather than against it. |
| Never billed | Per minute of talk time, and any share of the sale | Per-minute is our suppliers' unit, not yours. The sale is almost entirely your result — billing there would be charging you for work we did not do. |
Why isn't the number on this page?
Because a figure published without the volume band it assumes is either wrong for you or an anchor we would then spend the call defending. The rate depends on how many registrants a month you actually produce, and quoting the middle of that band to everybody serves nobody at either end of it.
We take the counter-argument seriously, because it is the sharp one: refusing to name a number reads as being afraid of it. That objection is about the call, not the website — and it is on the call that vendors earn it, by deflecting when asked directly.
The rule, in one line
Book the call
One call, no deck, no gated demo you have to sit through before anyone will talk about money.
Ask
You get the base fee and the per-appointment rate in the sentence after you ask, before we have heard your ad spend.
We size it against your registrant volume
The stated band the pricing assumes is part of the quote rather than a footnote, so the re-pricing conversation happens now instead of awkwardly in month four.
You decide whether to start with the pilot
One webinar cycle at a fixed fee, list split down the middle, both halves reported side by side.
What exactly am I billed for?
One rung of the funnel, chosen because it is the only one that is both genuinely influenced by us and countable without an argument.
We bill on total attended calls, including some who would have turned up anyway. That is the convention setters and agencies both work to, the rate is set knowing it, and the alternative — billing on a measured increase — needs a permanent control group and produces a baseline dispute with no neutral referee. The number worth comparing us against is your cost per booked-and-attended call, not the size of our invoice.
What happens if my volume changes?
Four things go in the contract before anything sends, and this is the one people forget to ask about until it bites: a meaningful base fee, a stated volume band outside which we re-price, tiered per-appointment rates so a good month does not produce a runaway invoice, and a written definition of an attended call. The fourth is where outcome deals actually break.
Can I start with a test instead of a contract?
That is the way in we would pick for you. One webinar cycle at a fixed fee, your registrant list split down the middle, both halves reported side by side however the numbers land — and then the pricing conversation happens against your own data rather than against a claim. How it runs, and why an even split reads faster than a small control group, is on the pilot.
Before the contract
Split your registrant list down the middle.
One webinar cycle, a fixed fee named on the call, and both halves of your list reported side by side. Then we price against what happened rather than against what we promised.
- Month to month, no term
- A stated volume band, in writing
- A written definition of an attended call
- Never billed per minute
Ask about money in the first two minutes if you like. That is the fastest way to find out whether we deflect.
Frequently asked questions
Yes, the moment you ask, in the sentence after you ask it. No range, no it-depends, and no waiting to hear your ad spend first. If a vendor needs to know your budget before naming a number, they are pricing you rather than pricing the work.
Never. Per-minute is what our suppliers charge us, and passing a supplier's unit straight through would price us as infrastructure, reward longer calls when we want efficient ones, and quote you in a unit you have never bought in.
No. The sale is almost entirely your result — your offer, your presentation, your closing. Billing there would mean charging you for work we did not do, and it would put us in a position to argue with you about your own revenue.
It is written into the contract rather than left to interpretation. The market's own working definition is the one we start from: the prospect showed up, knew it was a paid service, knew what it solves, and had shown explicit interest. Calls are recorded, which is what makes that definition adjudicable instead of arguable.
That is the recommended way in. The pilot is one webinar cycle at a fixed fee, with your registrant list split down the middle so half get worked and half do not, and both halves reported to you side by side. Everything about how it runs is on the pilot page.
We would rather give you the guarantee that matters. A complaint escalation pauses the system and notifies you, and a breach of that voids the contract. Money back is close to worthless in this category, because you cannot refund a reputation.
You run a webinar; we come in and work your registrants before and after it with an assistant that says what it is. If the money conversation is what is holding you up, book a call and open with it. If it is the brand risk instead, start with what it says and hear real calls.
