Monthly retainer

Someone runs the system with you, every week.

Buying a workbook is the easy part. The shops that get control are the ones where somebody keeps the system honest after week one. That is what this is.

See retainer pricingTry the free board first

Cancel any time from your dashboard; access runs to the end of the paid period. Not sure yet? The free Shop Priority Board uses the same approach and costs nothing.

What the first month looks like

Configured in week one. Reviewed every week after.

No discovery phase, no implementation project. The system is running against your real work before the first invoice renews.

  1. 01

    Week one

    Intake, then configuration. Your job list, item master, or asset list goes in — real data, not samples.

  2. 02

    Week two

    First operating review. The board goes live with your crew and we agree who owns which column.

  3. 03

    Weeks three and four

    Adjust the routine until it survives a normal week without anyone being reminded to update it.

Retainer pricing

Two levels. Both include every system.

Annual billing is ten months for twelve. The systems themselves are included, so there is nothing else to buy.

Straight about scope

What a retainer is not

Worth reading before you buy. A retainer that gets returned in month two helps nobody.

  • It is not a staffing service. We do not run your shop or enter your daily data.
  • It is not an ERP implementation, and it does not replace your accounting system.
  • It is not on-site. Reviews happen on video, which is what keeps it weekly.
  • It is not support for other software you already run.
