What’s It Like to Work with AK Operations?

Actually, our favorite question. Of course, we use AI to generate research and accelerate production. We use several platforms to learn and monitor each client's messaging, industry news, and generate impressive designs and assets. We do not use AI prospecting tools outside of research. We do not burn through domains or inboxes or subscribe to that level of volume, especially from a sales voice.

We operate on a 6-month engagement (that flips then month-to-month) model designed to ramp, optimize, and evaluate ROI. Most clients stay longer (avg. tenure is 16–18 months), but our structure gives you flexibility.

Here’s how we roll:

• Month 1: Database overhaul, TAM built, nurture begin
• Month 2–3: Outbound and inbound sales motions go live
• Month 4: First deals close, sales playbooks are codified
• Month 5–6: Pipeline and meetings hit stride, ROI becomes predictable
• At Month 6: Clients either stay as-is, expand, or transition in-house with training

We run weekly Rev Engine Meetings and monthly Partnership Performance Reviews to track results, identify wins, and make pivots in real time.

Once the contract is signed, we:

• Immediately configure the tech stack
• Send over a New Client Questionnaire to jumpstart our collab
• Book your kickoff meeting to align on targets, channels, systems, and goals
• Launch with 2x weekly meetings that taper to weekly once we go live
• You’ll see real traction within the first few weeks—think: cleaned CRM data, Hubspot channels built, and early signals of engaged companies to prospect.

Expect traction fast—but predictability by Month 4.

• Month 1: Website traffic climbs, leads are segmented and nurtured
• Month 2: Sales prospecting begins, MQLs accelerate
• Month 3: All GTM motions (inbound, outbound, event) are live
• Month 4–5: Playbooks are performing, deals are closing
• Month 6: We are either stay hunker down and keep things rollin' ourselves, expand our partnership into new departments or targets, or begin training someone in-house to take over longterm.

Typically our program delivers consistent qualified pipeline that ensures a breakeven point by Month 4. From Month 6 and on, it’s all about compounding results that put us on track for a 4x ROI for Year 1!

We make it simple, but not hands-off. You’ll need to:

• Commit to 1 weekly huddle
• Commit to 1 Monthly Rev Engine Meeting - invite your whole team to this one
• Approve "stuff" within 48 hours
• Loop us into Slack for fast approvals and real-time collaboration
• Hubspot (and SFDC) access

We build live dashboards, notifications, and reporting so your team has total visibility into progress, engagement, and pipeline performance.

We build a custom ramp schedule for every client.

• This isn’t about vanity metrics—it’s about consistent, qualified pipeline.
• Year-to-date, 71% of meetings we book convert into qualified opportunities
• Most clients break even by Month 4
• Many hit a 4x ROI on Year 1. And double for Year 2!
• All walk away with a system that continues on long after we’re gone
