True Cost of Doing Business with Boostability
**For this article, I do make some assumptions that you would have to confirm yourself for accurate data.
For every $1,000 retail spend, approximately $60 is spent on fulfillment.
Estimate Explained
Average hourly rate Boostability charges wholesale $22hour. Although I have seen rates between $17 and $28/hour
Each task is assigned a number of minutes to come up with a price.
For example, a Blog post on their PBN is worth 360 minutes. That is $132 Wholesale.
Another example is ‘Article Engagement’ (blog comment spamming)
Boost assigns 30 min. That is $11 wholesale.

Running the Numbers
My best guess is that Boostability has an 85% profit margin.
Product 1, “customer blog publication”
Cost to produce content pulled from their content site writersdomain.
Standard blog $12.25 – $15.50, we will use the top price $15.50.
Cost to post to a private blog network(PBN). My best guess is maybe a $1.
Total cost of Product 1 $16.50.
Wholesale cost of product is $132. $16.50/132 = 12.5% cost to fulfill.
Product 2, “article engagement”(blog comment spamming)
This is a bunch of minimum wage employees going this.
Cost of employee, $12/hr, pulled from glassdoor.
Time to complete I estimate about 5 min.
Total cost of Product 2 $1
Wholesale cost of product is $11. $1/11 = 9% cost to fulfill.
