Proposals & SOWs from scratch
Two hours per pitch at 11pm — an unbilled week every quarter that never shows up on any invoice.
AgenciesThe Time-Back Audit — $999 · now bookingGuaranteed
The Time-Back Audit for agencies.
Every PM could run one more account. We'll find the hours — or you don't pay.
Accounts per PM is the number your agency grows on — and it's capped by proposals, reporting, and status emails, not by talent. The $999 Time-Back Audit finds the 5–10 hours a week each person loses to that admin and prescribes the off-the-shelf AI tools that turn them into another retainer served.

The leak
What's standing between each PM and one more account.
Typical drain
13 hrs / wk
None of this is client strategy. It's the unbillable admin that fills the day and quietly sets the ceiling on how many accounts one person can carry.
Monthly client reporting
Reporting week takes your most senior people offline — the exact people who could be carrying one more account.
Status update emails
The "quick update" threads that fill every gap between calls — each one composed by hand, each one basically the same.
Meeting recaps & follow-ups
Action items live in someone's memory until they don't. Then the next call spends fifteen minutes reconstructing the last one.
New-client onboarding
The same kickoff doc, intake questions, and access requests retyped every time you win — a tax on growth itself.

Where agencies lose the week.
The pattern we see over and over in agencies — hour by hour, task by task.

Typical week for a 5–15 person agency, per account lead. At a $3k/mo retainer, freeing one day a week per PM is a $36k/yr account you can now serve — without hiring.

The risk sits on our side of the table.
Certificate
G-001
If we can't find at least 5 hours per week of recoverable time in your business, you pay nothing — full refund, and you keep the report.
No fine print, no store credit, no "reasonable effort" clause. If the audit doesn't pay for itself on paper before you've implemented a single tool, it's free.
- 5 hrs/week per person — the measurable floor
- Full refund if we miss it, no argument
- You keep the written prescription either way

Your prescription is written by someone who takes it themselves.
I'm not a consultant who discovered ChatGPT last quarter. I've built six B2B SaaS companies — LeadCart, ZenVerifier, ColdRelay, NuMail, InboxSlash, OutboundPass — and AI does real work in all of them, every day: support drafts, outbound, reporting, QA.
That's the job I do for you in the audit. I look at how your business actually runs, find the hours leaking out through proposals, follow-ups, and reporting, and tell you exactly which off-the-shelf tools to install, in what order — and what to skip.
The tools already exist. You don't need a data scientist. You need a doctor who's seen your symptoms before and writes the prescription. If I can't find you five hours a week, you don't pay.

Questions, answered straight.
Questions
11
Q.01Will clients be able to tell our work is AI-assisted?+
The strategy and the relationships stay 100% yours — what changes is the retyping. Drafts come out in your voice, trained on your past work, and everything ships through human review. What clients actually notice is faster turnaround.
Q.02We're a small team with no ops person. Can we actually implement this?+
Yes — that's a constraint we design for. Every prescription is picked for the team you have, and the quick-start plan gets the first tool live in 4 days. If you'd rather not touch any of it, done-for-you implementation exists too — with your audit credited.
Q.03What exactly do I get for $999?+
A 45-minute deep-dive call, an AI-assisted analysis of your workflows, a written prescription report (the exact tools, their costs, and the rollout order), a capacity ROI model in your numbers, a 30-minute review call, and a 4-day quick-start plan. If we find under 5 hours a week of recoverable time, you get a full refund and keep the report.
Q.04Do you build custom AI or sell software?+
Neither. Think of it like a doctor writing prescriptions — the medicine already exists, and our job is knowing which one fits your symptoms. We prescribe off-the-shelf tools, we don't take affiliate commissions, and we have no software of our own to push.
Q.05You sell capacity — so why is the guarantee in hours?+
Because hours are the thing we can prove on paper before you spend another dollar. Capacity and revenue depend on what you do with the hours; the 5-hour floor is the measurable proxy that makes the promise safe to guarantee — and safe for you to hold us to.
Q.06What if you can't find 5 hours a week?+
Then the audit is free. Full refund, and you keep the report. It hasn't happened yet — most small businesses are leaking well past 10 hours per person — but the risk is ours, not yours.
Q.07We already use ChatGPT. Is this still worth it?+
Almost every client already uses ChatGPT — as a chat window. The hours aren't in better prompting; they're in wiring AI into your actual workflows: proposals, reporting, follow-up, intake. That's what the prescription covers, and it's usually 90% tools you've never evaluated.
Q.08Do I need technical people on my team?+
No. Every prescription is chosen for the team you actually have. If a tool needs an engineer to babysit it, it doesn't make the report.
Q.09How is this different from hiring an AI consultant?+
Consultants bill hours to explore. We sell a fixed outcome at a fixed price with a guarantee: 5+ recoverable hours a week per person identified, or you pay nothing. The whole engagement is under two weeks, not two quarters — and it costs about 1.5% of the junior hire it replaces.
Q.10How fast do I actually see time back?+
The quick-start plan is designed to get your first prescription live within 4 days of the review call. Most clients feel the first recovered hours in week one.
Q.11What happens after the audit?+
Whatever you want. Most clients implement the report themselves — it's written so you can. If you'd rather hand it off, we offer done-for-you implementation and a capped ongoing concierge; you'll get those details after your review call, and your $999 is credited in full toward implementation within 30 days.
