AI won't replace you. Someone using AI will.

No. A flat $200 per 1-hour Zoom session, paid before each session. There's no retainer, no setup fee, no subscription, and no minimum number of sessions. You only ever pay for the sessions you actually book.

Each $200 session is a live Zoom call where I remote into your computer and we work together. You watch, ask questions, and learn how to use AI in your business while I build. We set things up properly, configure Claude, install and integrate Obsidian, build agents and workflows, whatever your session plan calls for.

Many sessions naturally run a bit over the hour because we don't want to stop in the middle of something important. If a session goes over a little, I don't charge extra. If sessions go over too long, I will ask you for additional payment.

It depends on where you're starting and what you're building. With a base in place, a few sessions ($600-$1,000) may get you there. From scratch, budget realistically for 5-10 sessions or more; the Obsidian vault alone can take 1-2 sessions. Add about $100-200/month for a serious Claude plan; Obsidian is free. Beyond the $200/hour rate there are no retainers, setup fees, upsells or monthly fees to me.

Yes. We can build command-center pieces with you, session by session, as part of coaching. It usually takes more than a few sessions, and we start with your foundation. If you'd rather have a custom business command center built and run for you, that's a separate monthly service: see the command center.

Yes. We are a GoHighLevel agency, and building automations, workflows and integrations on GHL is what we do every day. We can wire your GHL account into your Claude setup so your AI can read leads, update contacts, trigger workflows and operate inside your CRM. The same applies to most major CRMs (HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Close and others): if there's an API or webhook, we can integrate it.

Yes. Email (Gmail, Outlook), calendar (Google, Microsoft, Calendly), Google Drive, Docs and Sheets, Notion, Slack, ClickUp, Airtable and most major business apps can be wired into your Claude setup. If it has an API or an MCP server, it can connect.

Honestly, it depends, and I won't pretend otherwise. With some foundation in place, a handful of sessions may do it. From scratch, it's very possible it takes 5-10 sessions or more; setting up your Obsidian vault correctly can take 1-2 on its own. Some sessions are hours of terminal commands, integrating systems and troubleshooting when AI does something unpredictable. Please come in expecting a real build, not a one-and-done setup.

Because no two projects are the same and I can't honestly predict the exact scope before we start. An hourly rate is the only fair way to price work that varies this much: you pay for the time we actually spend and nothing you don't use. If you're on a tight budget watching the clock minute by minute, please don't hire me. If you understand good setups take the time they take, we'll be a great fit.

Whatever time you grab on my calendar is yours. I keep my calendar current and work nights and weekends too, so if you can see the time, you can book it.

Sessions are non-refundable if you cancel inside 48 hours or no-show. I block my calendar for you and turn down other work for that hour. If you reschedule with at least 48 hours notice, the payment carries over to the new time.

I've spent the last 6+ years running HighLevel agencies and building AI and automation systems inside financial services and small business. I work in Claude and Obsidian every day, and the setup I teach is the one I run my own business on. If you want to see receipts before we start, just ask.

Yes. If you email or text, I typically respond within minutes, and I don't charge for simple questions. Often I'll record a quick Loom walking you through the answer. If something needs more hands-on time, we schedule another session.

Yes, at no extra cost. Sessions are a flat $200 regardless of how many people are watching and learning.

Yes. Everything we discuss is confidential. If your business requires a mutual NDA, send it before we start and I'll review and sign it. Recordings are sent only to you.

No, we can set it up together in your first session. But plan for a real Claude plan as a cost of doing business with AI. The $20/month plan runs out of capacity fast for this kind of work; the $100/month plan is the practical floor, and the $200/month plan is what I recommend.

That's who this is built for. You don't need to write code or use a terminal. I drive your computer through remote screen-share while you watch and learn, and I teach you the patterns so you can repeat them yourself.

Both. Everything we set up runs on Mac, Windows and Linux, and remote login works with any computer. If you're shopping for a new machine and serious about AI long-term, Apple Silicon is great for local LLMs: aim for at least an M4 with 32GB of unified memory; 64GB opens things up even more. I'd avoid 16GB configurations if local AI is part of your plan.

Yes. We use standard tools like Zoom remote control or AnyDesk. You watch the entire time, you can end the session in one click, and you enter any passwords yourself. I never see or store them.

Yes. Every session is recorded and sent to you to keep. Most clients go back to recordings when they repeat a setup themselves.

For business automation work, Claude is the most capable model right now: long context, strong reasoning and coding, and the cleanest MCP and tool ecosystem for connecting your business systems. We can integrate ChatGPT or Gemini too, but Claude is what I recommend and use myself.

Big consultancies bill for slide decks, account managers and sales staff. You're paying me directly for hands-on time on your computer. No overhead, no junior staff, no white-glove sales process.

A course teaches generic concepts. This builds your business's AI foundation, live, on your machine, with you watching. You end up with working systems plus the skills to build the next one yourself.

Any business doing knowledge work: agencies, consultants, coaches, insurance agents, real estate operators, ecommerce founders, SaaS owners, content creators and financial advisors. If your work involves writing, research, customer communication, content, sales or operations, AI can fast-track it.

Yes. Everything we build runs on your machine with your own accounts, with no monthly subscription to me. Your Claude, Obsidian, integrations and workflows keep working as long as you pay for those services directly. If something breaks later, fix it with what you learned, rewatch your recordings, or book a session.

Yes. That's the entire point. You're watching it get built, learning the patterns and asking questions in real time, so you can run with it on your own and build the next thing yourself.
