Advisors & RIAsThe Time-Back Audit — $999 · now booking

Raise the ceiling on clients per advisor — without touching the client experience.

An advisory client generates thousands annually in fees, yet each book is constrained by prep, notes, and reporting — not relationships.

The $999 Time-Back Audit uncovers 5–10 weekly hours buried in admin work and prescribes off-the-shelf tools that expand advisor capacity — without a data scientist and without a client noticing anything but better-prepared meetings.

The leak

Where advisor capacity silently caps out.

Typical drain
12 hrs / wk

The relationship is what clients pay for. Everything else is admin the ceiling gets set by — one hour per meeting hour, four times a year, across a book of two hundred households.

Meeting prep

Reviewing accounts, building agendas, assembling one-pagers represent one hour of prep for every hour spent with clients.

Meeting notes & CRM entry

Each client conversation requires approximately twenty minutes of documentation — or creates a compliance gap when omitted.

Compliance documentation

Producing the paper trail regulators require, generated manually after every interaction.

Quarterly client reporting

Performance summaries and commentary assembled from multiple systems, four times yearly, across every household.

Scheduling & review follow-ups

Annual reviews pursued through individual email threads across a two-hundred-household book.

The leak, itemized

Off the prescription pad

Three examples of what we prescribe.

Categories only, here. Your report names the exact tools — with pricing, setup time, and the order to roll them out.

Tools per audit
3–7
Rx 01 Meeting prep

AI prep-brief generator sourced from CRM and account data

Every review starts with a one-pager already drafted — advisor spends the hour reviewing, not building.

Hours back +2 hrs / week
Rx 02 Notes & documentation

Compliance-friendly meeting notetaker with CRM sync and audit trail

Notes get better; compliance gets happier; twenty minutes per conversation goes back to the book.

Hours back +2.5 hrs / week
Rx 03 Quarterly reporting

Automated report assembly with advisor commentary layer

Data compiles itself; advisor writes only the commentary — the part clients actually read.

Hours back +1.5 hrs / week

Every prescription in your report is off-the-shelf, priced, and chosen for the team you actually have — including a short list of what not to buy.

How it works

From leak to capacity, in four steps.

One week from booking to your first hours back. No discovery phase, no retainer, no "AI transformation roadmap."

Booking → first hour

The guarantee

Find 5 hours or pay nothing.

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.

FAQ

Questions, answered straight.

Questions
11
Q.01What about SEC and FINRA compliance?+
Compliance is the first filter on every prescription: books-and-records-friendly archiving, real data controls, and human review steps on anything client-facing. The report specifies exactly what may and may not touch each tool — nothing reaches clients unreviewed.
Q.02Will clients feel a difference?+
Clients experience better-prepared meetings and faster follow-through. The advisor-client relationship remains entirely yours; the audit only addresses work surrounding the conversations.
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.
