Cleverly in one line: Month-to-month cold email with a flat retainer (Growth) or pay per lead (Scale); prices only on a call. At the booking rate in Sales.co's conversion benchmarks, 10 to 30 meetings a month take about 8,700 to 26,100 new contacts.
Below are ten other agencies that run outbound, each with the price, contract and channel facts its own site states. Sales.co is our own service, so read this page with that in mind. It is listed first.

Why people look past Cleverly
- Neither plan shows a price, so you only learn the cost after a sales call.
- The page states no setup fee and no launch date; it says most clients see replies and meetings within 4 to 6 weeks of launching a campaign.
What Cleverly says on its own site
Cleverly's page offers two plans: Growth, a flat monthly retainer, and Scale, pay per lead, and says it is month-to-month with no contracts. Both list the same features: unlimited campaigns, a qualified lead list built for you, copy written for you, inbox and domain setup, deliverability management and a dedicated account manager. Its FAQ says it can manage replies, qualify leads and book meetings on your calendar if you choose its full-service option. Its case studies describe the sending setup as 2 USA IPs and 100 Outlook accounts and report results such as 330 meetings booked in 12 months for one client. Those are the agency's own figures, not ours.
What 10 to 30 meetings a month would take
Cleverly says it books 10 to 30 qualified B2B meetings a month. At the booking rate in Sales.co's own campaign (one booked call per 871 contacts, from Sales.co's conversion benchmarks), 10 bookings take about 8,700 new contacts and 30 take about 26,100. The yardstick has limits: the offers, lists and meeting definitions differ. Cleverly's plan page says "Thousands of emails monthly" and does not say how many contacts its 10 to 30 assumes, so that is the number to ask for.
Questions to ask Cleverly before you sign
- What does the Growth retainer cost, and what does Scale charge per lead? Neither is published.
- How is a lead defined in the Scale plan, and who decides whether one qualifies?
- What is the start date? The page gives 4 to 6 weeks to first replies and meetings, not a launch date.
- Are replies handled in the quote, or only on the full-service option?
When Cleverly is still the better pick
Cleverly offers a pay-per-lead plan (Scale) next to the flat retainer, and its site says it books 10 to 30 qualified B2B meetings a month. If you want to pay only for leads, stay.
