No retainers. No hourly.
Every fee is a percentage of a number you can see, and our rate only goes up if your top line does.
The whole fee structure
5% of collections up to your baseline 10% of collections above it
The baseline is the book you built. Your trailing-12-month collections at signing, stated in the agreement as a dollar figure. It rises with inflation each year, so ordinary price increases never count as growth. Only real growth pays the 10.
Billed monthly on prior-month collections. No invoices to argue about, no hours to audit.
No attribution, ever. Growth is collections above the baseline regardless of where it came from. The bank account is the referee. And if the book shrinks, the formula automatically charges 5% of actuals: our downside protection is built in, not negotiated.
Run your own numbers
Enter your collections. See the fee, the cost it displaces, and the effective rate year by year.
Your firm
Full service requires roughly $500k in collections. Below that, a lighter platform tier is in the works; we will tell you if that is the honest answer.
Set it to zero and the fee stays 5% flat. The 10 only ever applies to growth.
Cost the fee displaces
Typical ranges for firms this size: office admin $50k to $60k, tool stack $10k to $20k, marketing retainer $24k to $60k. Edit to match your reality.

Net to you
before growth is counted
Your bottom line improves before the top line moves. Nobody gets fired; as attrition happens, you stop replacing.
Effective rate, year by year
The blended rate starts at 5% and climbs toward 10% only as growth compounds. It can never exceed 10%.
The five-year view
| Year | Collections | Fee | Effective rate |
|---|
Assumes the baseline rises 2.5% per year as the inflation adjustment. Collections compound at your growth assumption. If collections fall, the fee is simply 5% of actuals.
Cheap with a stated reason
Full-service management companies in dental and medical charge 10 to 20 percent of collections. Signal is at 5 on the book you built, and 10 only on growth we deliver.
The reason is simple: we are early in this vertical, and we are pricing for references and long relationships, not for maximum extraction. Cheap with no reason reads as bait. This is the reason, stated out loud.
A percentage of a number you can see
No fixed fees
Nothing on the rate card is a flat number pulled from the air. Every fee is denominated in your collections, your growth, your recovered dollars.
No retainers
A retainer pays for availability. A percentage pays for outcomes. We only ever charge the second kind.
No hourly
You bill hours because the work is the product. For us, the system is the product, so metering hours would price the wrong thing.
Eligibility, not fee floors. Full service requires roughly $500k in trailing-12 collections. Below the gate, we do not quote a discounted version of this offer; a lighter platform tier is in the works, and if that is the honest answer for your firm, we will say so in the diagnostic.
What sits outside the base fee is priced the same way: ad spend passes through at cost; historical AR recovery runs about 15% of dollars actually recovered; executive and partner search is a percentage of first-year compensation; buy-side acquisitions are a percentage of the deal. Website builds and deep data archaeology are scoped projects. Nothing is hourly, anywhere.
The fee has to clear a bar before we offer it
Before any contract, the diagnostic readout itemizes the money found in your own numbers. That found money must exceed our base fee, or no contract is offered. The close is arithmetic, not faith.
If the diagnostic doesn't find annual value exceeding our base fee, we'll tell you you're not a fit.
