HOW PRICING WORKS

Every project is scoped before any work starts. You’ll know the price, the timeline and what you should get back before you commit to anything.

EXAMPLES, NOT CASE STUDIES

  1. EXAMPLE 01

    Quotes

    45 min → 4 min

    PER QUOTE — AN EXAMPLE

    THE SITUATION

    A merchant with six people quoting from one spreadsheet that only one of them really understood. Every quote began by finding the last similar one.

    WHAT GETS BUILT

    The request is read, checked against the price list, and a draft quote is ready before anyone opens the inbox. A person checks it and sends it.

  2. EXAMPLE 02

    Email

    34 → 3 to check

    OVERNIGHT — AN EXAMPLE

    THE SITUATION

    Around two hundred messages a week, most of them one of six questions, all landing in the same place as the ones that matter.

    WHAT GETS BUILT

    Messages are sorted, the routine ones written for you, and anything odd is flagged. Nothing goes out until a person says yes.

  3. EXAMPLE 03

    Reports

    1 week → 1 morning

    PER MONTH — AN EXAMPLE

    THE SITUATION

    Numbers pulled out of four systems by hand, pasted into a fifth, then chased for a week by the person least able to spare it.

    WHAT GETS BUILT

    The report builds itself overnight from the same four places. The finance lead reads it instead of making it.

A NOTE ON THE NUMBERS

Every number on this page is worked out on paper from the job drawn beside it. None of it was measured at a client. When we have measured results we will publish them, name the business, and say what we got wrong. Until then this page says example, because that is what it is.
