Sound familiar?
Where marketing retainers usually leak
“Sign-off is buried in five email threads.”
Creative goes to the client as a versioned approval. They compare v1 and v2 side by side, pin comments on the image and approve in the portal or from an email link.
Approvals and versions →“The retainer went over and nobody noticed.”
Every hour you log burns the retainer. You see what is left this month, what rolls over and what becomes overage, before the client asks.
Retainer hours and rollover →“Results live in six different dashboards.”
Each campaign gets tracking links and a results view. Client social posts get per-post numbers. Ambi turns them into the monthly report draft.

Marketing questions
Straight answers
- Is Ambital a replacement for HubSpot?
- Not for marketing automation. Ambital runs your client work, your retainers and your own pipeline. It reports on Mailchimp campaigns but does not send email campaigns itself.
- Can clients approve creative before it goes out?
- Yes, on Business and above. Clients approve from an email link, with versions and comments, or in the client portal on Business Pro and above.
- Can I track retainer hours per client?
- Yes. Every plan tracks time against a retainer, and Business adds rollover and retainer analytics so you can see which clients are over or under.
- Which plan do marketing consultants choose?
- Most choose Business at £59 a month, because it includes the client portal, approvals, social scheduling and retainer rollover.
- Does it work with my design tools?
- Yes, from Pro. Designs from Canva and Figma link to the project today, with more design tools coming, so the version your client approves is the latest one.
