Cience

• Pricing model: Hybrid pricing: a one-time GTM setup fee plus a monthly platform/managed-execution retainer, with optional at-cost SDR staffing and a variable pay-per-held-meeting commission. CIENCE also markets month-to-month service with custom ROI-based per-meeting fees.
• Starting price: $499 / mo
• Typical range: $1,500-$5,500 / mo per SDR
• Billing: Monthly subscription/retainer for platform and growth execution, one-time setup fees, optional per-SDR monthly pass-through staffing charges, and pay-per-held-meeting commission calculated from an ROI target.
• Contract terms: Month-to-month; no long-term contracts / cancel anytime.
• Free trial: Free 20-minute call on the pricing page; some CIENCE comparison pages also advertise trying graph8 free with 10K credits + campaign setup, no commitment.

CIENCE now publishes unusually concrete pricing on its own site. The clearest current figures are: graph8 infrastructure at $499/mo, strategic execution at $2,000/mo, a one-time GTM setup fee of $5,000, SDRs at $1,500-$5,500/mo depending on level and geography, and $1,000 one-time onboarding per SDR. CIENCE also states that per-meeting fees are custom and derived from an agreed ROI goal, so there is no single published appointment price. Third-party directories corroborate that engagements are custom and can span much larger budgets: Clutch shows a $1,000+ minimum project size, under-$25/hr listed hourly rate, and review-based project spend typically between $2,500 and $50,000; DesignRush lists a minimal budget of $1,000-$10,000 and average hourly rate of $25/hr. Those directory figures are marketplace/listing estimates, not a first-party CIENCE price card.

A CIENCE engagement appears to start with discovery and ICP definition, then moves into research/list building and tailored outbound campaign setup, after which CIENCE runs multi-channel outreach and hands off booked meetings or qualified leads to the client. Across reviews and case studies, clients describe CIENCE acting like an outsourced SDR/research team, with outcomes varying mainly on lead quality and execution consistency.

1. 1

   Define fit and target accounts

   The engagement begins with discovery around whether outsourcing fits, followed by defining the ideal customer profile, target companies, and target titles. CIENCE’s own sales-journey materials say the ICP is the first step, and customer case studies describe CIENCE using the client’s ICP and objectives to shape the work.

2. 2

   Research and build prospect data

   After targets are set, CIENCE researches industries, companies, and contacts, then builds enriched lead lists for the campaign. Customer-facing case studies and CIENCE’s NOTE framework both describe accurate/enriched lead lists and market research as a core early deliverable.

3. 3

   Tailor the campaign playbook

   CIENCE then translates the ICP and research into a customized outbound setup rather than a generic blast. Client evidence on CIENCE’s site says the team took time to fine-tune campaign setup to the client’s needs, while third-party write-ups describe a GTM setup plus a defined outreach playbook.

4. 4

   Launch multi-channel outbound outreach

   Once setup is approved, CIENCE runs outbound prospecting across multiple channels through its SDR/research team. Multiple sources describe CIENCE conducting custom-tailored or multi-channel cold outbound campaigns on the client’s behalf rather than only sending email.

5. 5

   Qualify responses and book meetings

   As prospects engage, CIENCE handles the top-of-funnel qualification work and then passes meeting-ready opportunities to the client. CIENCE’s own materials explicitly frame the outcome as booking meetings, and a customer case study says CIENCE handled the first stage of the funnel before transferring leads when they were ready to meet.

6. 6

   Manage delivery and adjust based on results

   During execution, clients receive ongoing project delivery from CIENCE as an outsourced team, with communication and optimization affecting satisfaction. Review aggregates on Clutch and G2 repeatedly mention project management, communication, and mixed lead quality, indicating the live campaign phase includes ongoing management and iteration but with uneven results for some clients.
