Start with an Audit. Decide on further work after the Roadmap.
A discovery call checks whether I can help. The Audit starts from $2K and ends in a written plan that's yours to keep. You can hire me on a monthly retainer to build it or take the plan to another team. The retainer depends on how much you want built and how long we work together.
Which tier fits you?
The Audit starts from $2K. Each package is scoped to your project, and the scoping call sets the work and final price.

I've helped online stores sell more, traced ad spend back to the revenue it brought in, and built AI systems that work from a company's own documents. The Audit identifies where work like this could help your business.
The practice pages explain what the work covers. Your price depends on how much of it you hand me.
See the three practicesYou never hand over five figures and wait.
Work is delivered in gates. Each gate has a defined deliverable you can see and use. Stop at any gate and you keep everything that shipped up to it. Nothing runs forever, and you never pay a lump sum on faith.
I can't guarantee you results. I can guarantee my output, my system, my product, my process.
The guarantee covers what I control: scope, dates, output quality, and how the system behaves. It stops at market outcomes, because no one can promise those and mean it.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cost | Advisor costs $2K a month for strategy and review. Builder costs $4K a month for strategy and implementation. Partner costs $10K a month for planning, building and running systems. | US marketing managers earned a median $166,790 in 2025, before employer benefits. A separate engineering role adds to the cost. | WebFX advertises digital marketing from $3,000 a month. That's its starting price; your channels and scope determine the quote. | One agency campaign was paying about $200 per lead before the work brought it to $10-$18. Waiting costs depend on your starting numbers. |
| Scope | Strategy, the build, and the copy from one brain, plus the documented system you keep | Decide which work the employee owns and what you'd still need help with. | Check who writes the plan, who builds it and who runs it. | Name the work your team will keep doing as it does now. |
| Delivery | Days to the first deliverable | Agree when the employee starts and what they'll deliver. | Agree what you'll receive, when, and how you'll check it works. | Your team keeps doing the work with its current systems. |
| Handover | Stop at any gate and keep what shipped | Require written instructions so someone else can take over. | Check ownership, documentation and handover terms. | Keep instructions current so your team can keep running what's there. |
| Guarantee | Scope, dates, output, and system behavior | The $166,790 wage benchmark buys an employee's time. Performance expectations belong in the role and employment agreement. | A $3,000 starting fee says nothing about a performance guarantee. The agency's contract determines what it promises. | There's no paid provider to guarantee a change. Your current costs continue until the business changes. |

A full-time hire wins once the volume is sustained and full-time. That's the situation Partner's handoff arc builds toward.
These are different purchases. The salary benchmark covers an employee, WebFX quotes agency services, and my retainers cover the work agreed in your Roadmap.
One insurance prospect spent over $100K a month on ads optimized for reactions, with no sales follow-up for those people.
