Arithmetic
Contribution from first retainer. AI tools. SEO platforms. Labour hours.
Monthly contribution equals retainer minus AI tools, SEO platforms, labour hours, Stripe fees, and other costs. Buyer invoices. Not income. One paid retainer is the close. A STOP is a completed result.
Identity, not a market rate.

Contribution from your numbers. No invented close rates or pricing.
