What the Standard Package Costs
Our standard reputation package is $1,888 for a full year of service, and we publish that number so you never have to sit through a sales call to hear it. It covers content removal where the material is eligible, suppression of what cannot come down, monitoring, and ongoing support. If something new surfaces during your campaign, we handle it at no extra charge. Financing is available, so you can spread the cost into easy monthly payments instead of paying all at once. Larger jobs, such as court-record cleanups, are priced separately and can be financed the same way.
A Real Example: Quoted $41,300, Done for $188 a Month
A client came to us after being sued in civil court. The case was dropped. They were never found liable. None of that stopped the court filings from following them across the first page of Google every time someone searched their name. The lawsuit was over. The internet had not noticed.
Before they found us, they got two quotes from large reputation firms.
We took the work for $188 a month over twelve months, with financing built in so it never strained their budget. The filings were removed completely. A dropped case that named no wrongdoing no longer defines the search results for someone who was never found liable for anything.
A five-figure quote does not mean five-figure work. The big firms price by how worried you sound. We price by the job, publish the number, and offer financing so the right help is actually within reach.

Why It Works This Way
The retainer model exists because it is good for the agency, not because it is good for you. Plenty of reputation problems are a single, finite job: one court record, one bad review situation, one branded-search cleanup. There is no reason to pay a year of monthly fees for a project that takes a few weeks. So we price by the job, publish our cost ranges openly, and let you approve the number before any work starts.
The other difference is accountability. At a big firm, the person who sold you the strategy is rarely the person doing the work. Here, a specialist handles the day to day and Drew reviews every project weekly, so the strategy and the execution stay connected to one name. See what that produces.
And we are honest about limits. No firm controls Google or removes everything. Anyone who guarantees rankings is selling you something. We tell you on day one what is removable, what we can suppress, and what is not worth your money.
If that sounds like the way you would rather work, get in touch or book a consultation.
Real People Who Have Been Where You Are
The hardest part of a reputation problem is how alone it makes you feel. We understand that firsthand, because some of the people on this team have lived it. They have searched their own name and felt their stomach drop. They have rebuilt after a public case, a harsh headline, or a filing that would not go away. That experience shows up in how we work: patient, honest, and free of judgment.
It also shapes how we treat you. You get a dedicated contact who knows your situation by name and stays with you from the first call through the day your results come back clean. Drew reviews every project personally. When you have a question, you reach a person who already knows your story, every time.
Common Questions
How much does reputation management cost?
Our standard reputation package is $1,888 for a full year of service, and we publish that number so you never have to sit through a sales call to hear it. It covers content removal where the material is eligible, suppression of what cannot come down, monitoring, and ongoing support. Financing is available, so you can spread the cost into easy monthly payments. Larger jobs such as court-record cleanups are priced separately and can be financed the same way.
Do reputation management firms require long-term contracts?
Most do. The big firms typically lock you into a yearly retainer billed every month. We work project by project with no contracts, so you pay for the specific work you need and stop whenever the job is done.
Can a company guarantee removal from Google?
No. No firm controls Google, and anyone who guarantees rankings or removal is selling you something. We tell you on day one what is removable, what we can suppress, and what is not worth your money, so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins.
Why is The Discoverability Company cheaper than the big firms?
The retainer model exists because it is good for the agency. Many reputation problems are a single, finite job, such as one court record or one branded-search cleanup, so there is no reason to pay a year of monthly fees for work that takes a few weeks. We price by the job, publish our ranges openly, and let you approve the number before we start.
Can court records or lawsuit filings be removed?
Often, yes. We have removed court filings for clients whose cases were dropped or who were never found liable. One client was quoted $41,300 by a large firm, and we completed the work for $188 a month over twelve months with financing built in. Court-record cleanups are priced separately from the standard package and can be financed.
