Starter quote at our contact allowance: Marketer quote at the SAME contact allowance: Billing term and amount due now: Applicable tax / extra fees: Incremental cost of Marketer: Specific constraint the upgrade removes: Owner and measurable business outcome: Trial-only features we used: Full signup or store test results: Chosen plan and reason: Next review date: YOUR RELEASE CHECKLIST [ ] I priced both plans at the same contact tier, currency and billing period, including annual prepayment and applicable tax. [ ] I counted every required custom workflow and element, and checked tags, ecommerce tools and other feature gates. [ ] I considered autoresponders for a fixed-day sequence before assuming a longer series requires Marketer. [ ] I verified the finished route against my intended paid plan rather than assuming every trial feature will remain available.
