What is repeatable work
actually costing you?
Six sliders, honest math. Estimate what inbox triage, follow-up, scheduling, and reporting cost your business every year — in payroll hours and in leads that quietly die — then compare it to the published price of a managed AI Digital Employee.
Count everyone who touches inbox triage, follow-up, scheduling, or reporting — including you.

Salary plus taxes and benefits, divided by hours. Use a blended average — and be honest about what an owner-hour is worth.
