Frequently Asked Questions
about AI Consulting.

I sit down with you, learn how your business runs, and figure out where AI and automation can save you time, reduce friction, or help you win more business. Then I implement it.

Most business owners know AI exists but don't have time to figure out where it applies to their specific operation. I translate what's possible into what's practical for your situation.

No. Most of my clients aren't. You don't need to understand how any of it works. You need to understand what problem you're trying to solve. I handle the rest.

I'll explain what I'm building and why in plain language, but you'll never need to touch the backend unless you want to.

Primarily small businesses with 1 to 20 employees. Trades and home services, health and wellness, real estate, professional services, and local businesses of all kinds.

The common thread: a business owner who's good at what they do but losing time to manual processes, inconsistent follow-up, or tools that were never properly configured.

Common examples: automated follow-up so leads don't go cold, AI-assisted scheduling and booking, review request sequences that run without anyone managing them, AI chat that qualifies website leads 24/7, and automated intake that feeds directly into your CRM.

None of this requires replacing your team or learning new software. It requires someone to set it up correctly so it runs in the background.

30 minutes. I ask about how your business runs, where you're losing time, and what you've already tried. No pitch, no slide deck.

By the end you'll have a clear sense of where AI applies to your business and whether it makes sense to work together. If it doesn't, I'll tell you that too.

The AI Audit is a one-time session followed by a written report, usually delivered within 3 to 5 business days. Implementation timelines vary, but most projects are up and running within 2 to 4 weeks.

Ongoing management is a monthly retainer with no long-term lock-in.

That's one of the most common situations I walk into. Before recommending anything new, I'll assess what you have and figure out whether it can be fixed or needs to be replaced.

The goal is always the outcome, not adding more tools. If what you have can work better with proper configuration, that's what I'll recommend.

The AI Audit starts at $297 and is a one-time engagement. Implementation projects are quoted based on scope after the audit. Ongoing management retainers start at $500/month.

The discovery call is free. No pressure to buy anything on the call.

Project work is scoped and priced upfront with no ongoing obligation. Monthly retainers are month-to-month. I don't lock clients into long-term contracts because the work should speak for itself.

The audit report includes a time and cost savings estimate for each recommendation. If the numbers don't make sense for your business, I'll tell you.

A common starting point: if you're losing 5 hours a week to tasks that could be automated at a time value of $75/hour, that's $1,500/month in recovered capacity. The question isn't whether AI can help. It's which parts of your operation to fix first.
