Are you willing to get your hands dirty with the work yourself to bring the total cash outlay down?
The average price of a SEO agency / freelancer is about $100. Having worked with video marketers (as one myself) you're looking at a total investment of about $2k/mo for a few months before you get an ROI from organic.
However -- if you're willing to do the writing to represent your brand and educate your users then you can save usually 75% of the total costs.
SEO is process oriented and outsourceable.
There are services that do all the technical work & heavy lifting, then give you the processes to finish the rest of the work with step-by-step instructions.
That is for the on-page and for any content marketing for the blog.
There are also link building software that I made that makes link building reductive and easy.
In short -- you can get links built with maybe an hour of time, with 90% of the work being done writing content for the other website so they can link to you.
