The canonical package

Same package across both tiers. The price moves; the deliverable doesn’t. The lead in the pricing story is what you get on every engagement.

3 ELEMENTS · SAME ACROSS TIERS
01 /

Managed agent.

We operate the agent on your behalf. You do not maintain prompts or eval scripts. You do not get a dashboard to configure. We tune the system; you book the work.

02 /

Three onboarding consulting sessions.

Session 1 (90 min): FSM connect, brand-voice notes, baseline metrics. Session 2 (60 min): test inbound flow, tune voice and escalation triggers. Session 3 (60 min): go-live, day-1 monitoring, first-week metric review.

03 /

Ongoing check-ins.

30-min Zoom (or in-person if local). Agenda: agent performance metrics review, capability tuning calls, what to add or drop, market-context updates. Charlie runs it. You can bring your office manager.

PG. 02 · anti-positioning

There is a version of AI for trades that costs $3-5k a month and locks you into a platform’s roadmap.
That is not what this is.

PG. 03

Two tiers.

No third tier on purpose. Three tiers create decision paralysis. Both come with the canonical package; the difference is pillar scope, check-in cadence, and shop size fit.

Numbers are educated guesses pending 5-10 owner conversations. The structure is locked; the dollar values may move once before launch.

Five questions

If a sixth comes up on the 15-min call, we add it here.

FAQ

What if I’m on QuickBooks instead of FieldPulse?

FSM-agnostic. We connect to FieldPulse, Jobber, or Housecall Pro for the FSM-native path. If you run on QuickBooks plus a spreadsheet, we run without an FSM in v1.

Can I cancel after the 90-day minimum?

Yes. Month-to-month after day 90. No auto-renew gotchas. If we’re not hitting target lift by day 60, that’s a conversation, not a contract problem.

What’s the upgrade path Starter → Managed?

Prorated mid-cycle. The Managed setup fee covers the additional capability-scope onboarding for Reactivate plus LSA campaign management in v2.

Why is there a setup fee?

Real onboarding work. Three sessions plus prep and follow-up covers ~6 hours of Charlie time at a $250-300/hr effective rate. Not a software-license dressing.

What happens if the agent over-escalates?

We tune escalation rules in the first 60 days. If it’s still wrong by day 60, we have a frank conversation about whether to keep going. You’re not locked in past the 90-day floor.
