The Current Pain of Virtual Meetings
- 60–90 minute “standups” with 12 people who don’t speak.
- “Quick syncs” that spawn rework loops and offline slacks.
- Decks no one reads. Decisions stall.
- Month end crunch? Calendar gridlock = teams burn nights/weekends.
Hidden tax: If your 25-person team spends 10 hrs/week in recurring meetings at $100/hr blended, that’s $1,000,000/yr in payroll sitting in rooms. Cut 30% and you claw back $300,000/yr.
90‑min diagnostic on cadences, agendas, tech, norms. We pull calendar + meeting exports and sample recordings.
We build your FORT Playbook (Follow‑up, Organize/Plan, Run, Technology & Tools) + role-by-role checklists.
Two live sessions (2–3 hrs total) to upskill facilitators & note‑takers. Practice reps, not lectures.
Inspect adoption, remove blockers, freeze new baseline.

Pricing and Terms
- Sprint Fee: $7,500 one‑time for one team (up to 50 people).
Add’l teams/sites: $2,500 each during the same month.
- No software to buy. We use your existing stack (Calendar, Zoom/Meet/Teams, Sheets/Excel).
- Guarantee: If we don’t reach ≥25% reduction by Day 30, we keep working free until we do.
- ROI Check: Typical 25‑person team saves ~150–250 hrs/week. At $100/hr, that’s $15k–$25k/week freed. Sprint pays for itself in less than a wee

Excuses that will keep others from moving forward:
“We’re in close/forecast. No time.” That’s when waste peaks. We cut seats + minutes without risking control. You get time back this month.
“We already trimmed meetings.” Good. We compress what’s left and raise decision throughput.
“Change won’t stick.” It sticks because we change rules + roles + artifacts, not vibes. Clinic at Day 30 locks the baseline.
“We can build this internally.” Then do it. Our speed is the value: 14 days to done. If you can say you can build this internally it's probably because you feel like you have the knowledge to do it. But, you haven't already done it. If knowledge alone were power, we would all be rich, thin, and wise, right?
FAQs
How do you measure the 30%? Total meeting hours attended (TMA) across your team: sum of (meeting length × attendees). We baseline Day 0 and compare at Day 30.
Do we need new software? No. We optimize your current stack.
Remote, hybrid, or onsite? Works for all. We deliver remote unless requested onsite (travel billed at cost).
Security/Privacy? We only access calendar metadata and volunteered recordings. No PII. We sign mutual NDAs.
What if our exec team is the bottleneck? Then we start there. The 5‑Line Executive Agenda is built for them.
