Common questions about our services.
What platform do you build on?
We typically build on platforms like HubSpot, GoHighLevel, or custom solutions depending on your needs and existing tech stack. The goal is always to consolidate your tools into as few platforms as possible.
How long does a typical buildout take?
A Single System Build typically takes 2-4 weeks. A Full Operations Buildout takes 6-10 weeks depending on complexity. We work in sprints and keep you updated throughout.
Do I need technical expertise to use these systems?
No. We design everything to be user-friendly for non-technical teams. Plus, we provide comprehensive training and documentation so your team can manage day-to-day operations confidently.
What's included in the monthly retainer?
The monthly retainer covers platform costs, ongoing support, minor updates and optimizations, and system maintenance. For Ongoing Partnership clients, it also includes new automation builds, AI development, and strategic consulting.
