PRICING
What you actually pay, month one and beyond
Appointment Setter Online
$900–$4,500 /month (Clutch-listed packages)
- Exact rates are quote-gated on their own site... 'specific rates adjusted during a quick strategy call'; Clutch lists $1,000/$1,800/$4,500 contact center tiers and $900/$1,600/$4,000 sales team augmentation tiers.
- Zero startup fees and zero onboarding fees advertised; billing starts only after you approve the team, the prospect list, and the scripts. That is genuinely buyer-friendly.
- Month-to-month standard with discounted rates for longer commitments; minimum project size $1,000+ per Clutch. Most-common client spend band on Clutch is $10,000-$49,999 lifetime.
- The math: their Large outbound tier ($4,500/mo) lands inside Leadium's published $3,500-$5,000 range, and their own FAQ prices US-based 'regional' callers above 'global' ones. A US-staffed program on their side is quoted on a call, not on the page.

A FAIR LOOK
A perfect Clutch scorecard
Clutch shows 5.0 overall across 49+ reviews, with 5.0 on quality, schedule, cost, and willingness to refer. It reflects consistent client satisfaction for an agency founded in 2010.
Buyer-friendly terms before billing
Zero startup fees, month-to-month terms, and a 'safe setup period'... you meet the team on video, review the prospect data, and edit every script before billing starts. Few agencies let you inspect that much before paying.
Cheap, fast, high-volume dialing
Tiers start at $900-$1,000/mo, campaigns go live in about 14 days, and reps carry daily quotas of 150-500+ touchpoints. For raw call volume per dollar, they are hard to beat.
Flexible staffing tiers
You choose 'regional' callers for local hours and communication style or 'global' callers at a lower operating cost. That range lets them serve $1,000/mo home-services accounts and larger B2B programs alike.
SIDE BY SIDE
You're not comparing Leadium to a software platform you still have to run. You're comparing a fully-managed standard.
Execution
100% US-Based SDRs
Every rep calling, emailing, and repping your brand is US-based and US-employed—not offshore labor priced to look cheap. That means clean compliance, no accent barrier on a complex enterprise call, and people who sound like the buyers they're reaching. The conversations that close happen human-to-human, in-market.
Accountability
Founder-Led, Not Farmed Out
The founders are in every account as strategic leads you're not handed three layers down to a junior account manager learning on your budget. The people who built Leadium are accountable for your pipeline, and the team runs as a specialized POD so quality never hinges on one rep having a good week.
Terms
Transparent Pricing, Month-to-Month
Published pricing, no annual lock-in, no padded retainer hiding labor arbitrage. You see exactly what you pay and you can leave anytime. Which means Leadium has to earn the relationship every single month. Most of the category buries price and locks you in. We do the opposite.

Directly accountable as strategic leads, not an assigned account manager three layers down
Transparent, published pricing with no setup fee

Fully-managed, not a platform to run
You get an outcome, not a tool you still have to operate yourself. The result lands finished, ready to use, without you having to learn a new interface first.
Specialized POD model
Research, messaging, dialing, and management handled by specialists, so there's no single point of failure when one person is out.

FAQ
Leadium vs Appointment Setter Online, answered.
Is Leadium or Appointment Setter Online cheaper?
Appointment Setter Online is cheaper at entry. Its Clutch-listed packages run $900 to $4,500 per month, while Leadium publishes a flat $3,500-$5,000/mo. The gap closes at the top: their Large outbound tier ($4,500/mo) sits inside Leadium's range, and their US-based 'regional' staffing costs more than the entry tiers. Leadium adds a minimal setup fee ($250-$500); they advertise $0 startup fees.
Does Appointment Setter Online use US-based SDRs?
Sometimes. Their own FAQ splits teams into 'regional' callers based locally and 'global' callers from their 'skilled international talent pool' at 'a more economical operating cost'. US-based calling is the premium option, not the default. Leadium guarantees 100% US-based, US-employed SDRs on every account, at the published rate.
What's the main difference between Leadium and Appointment Setter Online?
Appointment Setter Online sells tiered dialing capacity: pick a rep count and a daily touchpoint quota, from $900/mo, with email added at higher tiers. Leadium sells a fully-managed multi-channel SDR program... phone, email, and LinkedIn run by US-employed SDRs with founders as strategic leads. One is priced like a call center; the other is built like an extension of your sales team.
Which is better for complex B2B sales, Leadium or Appointment Setter Online?
Appointment Setter Online's reviewers report strong conversion rates, and the model performs on high-volume, simpler offers, including home services. For complex B2B... long cycles, defined ICPs, meaningful deal values... Leadium's structure is built for it: founders in every account since 2016, pattern depth from 1,500+ companies across 45+ industries, and US SDRs who can hold a technical conversation.
Does Leadium require a long-term contract?
No. Leadium is month-to-month with no lock-in. Appointment Setter Online deserves credit here too: standard plans are month-to-month, there is a free trial, and billing starts only after you approve the team and scripts. Both models let you leave; longer terms on their side simply earn a discount.
How long does it take to get started with Leadium vs Appointment Setter Online?
Appointment Setter Online says most campaigns go live within two weeks, and its safe setup period means you review everything before billing starts. Leadium programs go live in a matter of weeks with a minimal setup fee ($250-$500), folded into the monthly engagement, with founders leading strategy from day one.
