AI Implementation for Owner-Operated Businesses

AI that actually runs your business. Installed, not explained.

Everyone tells you AI will change your business. Nobody sets it up. I build working AI systems inside your company: the follow-ups, reports, collections, and paperwork that eat your week. You keep the results. No course, no hype.

In the first 30 days, most clients get:

  • Every lead answered the same day, automatically
  • A Monday morning report with every number that matters
  • Overdue invoices chased politely, every week, without you
  • Meeting notes turned into task lists by themselves
  • 5 to 10 hours a week back on your calendar
Built with Claude and the tools you already own. Nothing exotic to maintain.

The Problem

You did not start a business to do data entry at 10pm.

Owner-operators lose 10 to 20 hours a week to work a machine should do: chasing invoices, re-typing the same updates, digging through email, building the same report every Friday. AI can take most of that off your plate today. The gap is not the technology. It is that nobody has time to set it up properly.

The course trap

You bought the course. Nothing changed.

Webinars and prompt guides teach you about AI. They do not build anything. Monday morning, the invoices are still unchased and the report still takes 3 hours.

The agency trap

Agencies sell software. You need outcomes.

Big retainers, long timelines, tools your team never adopts. You do not need a platform. You need five specific jobs to happen without you.

The DIY trap

You could figure it out. You never will.

Not because you are not capable. Because you are running a company. Set-up time is exactly what you do not have. That is the job I take off your plate.

"The systems that got you here will not get you to the next stage. Now the fix does not require a $200K hire."
What I Install

Working systems, built around how you already operate.

Every build starts from your real workflow, not a template. These are the systems most owners ask for first.

Lead Response Engine

Every inquiry from your website, email, or referrals gets a same-day tailored reply and lands in one pipeline with a next action. No lead sits overnight.

Owner's Morning Brief

One daily or weekly email: cash position, overdue invoices, today's meetings with context, what needs your decision. Five minutes to full command of the business.

Invoice & AR Chase

Overdue invoices followed up automatically with escalating, professional messages matched to each customer's history. Owners routinely recover thousands in the first month.

Meeting-to-Action Pipeline

Record the meeting. Get the summary, decisions, and a task list assigned to the right people before you are back at your desk.

Proposal & Quote Builder

Professional, branded proposals generated from a 10-minute discovery call. Out the same day, while your competitor is still opening Word.

SOP & Training Builder

Your processes documented from recordings and walkthroughs, turned into clean SOPs and onboarding guides. Stop being the only person who knows how things work.

How It Works

Three steps. Real deliverables at every one.

Week 1 to 2

Audit

I map how work actually flows through your business, find the 5 highest-value automation opportunities, and rank them by hours saved and dollars recovered. You get a written 90-day roadmap, whether or not we go further.

Days 1 to 30

Build

I build and install the first system, connect it to your real tools, test it on live work, and train your team. It runs in your accounts, owned by you, before I invoice the final payment.

Who You're Working With

An operator who builds, not a builder who theorizes.

I'm Mark Probert. I run day-to-day operations across a portfolio of companies: construction, a ski resort, commercial capital, and real estate. Payroll, AP, collections, vendor disputes, reporting. Every week, all of it.

I started installing AI systems in my own companies because I was the bottleneck. They worked. Other owners started asking how. Rise Consulting is me building the same systems in your business, with the shortcuts I learned the hard way already baked in.

You will not get a slide deck about digital transformation. You will get working systems and your evenings back.

FAQ

Fair questions, straight answers.

No. If you can use email, you can run what I build. Systems are set up in tools you already have, and every build includes training and a plain-English playbook. The goal is that it works when I am not in the room.

Primarily Claude (Anthropic's AI), connected to what you already run: Gmail or Outlook, QuickBooks, your CRM, your calendar, your project tools. I do not resell software or take vendor commissions. If a $0 tool does the job, that is what we use.

Everything is built inside your own accounts, under your ownership and your passwords. I work under NDA by default, and business-tier AI tools do not train on your data. When we part ways, everything keeps working and stays with you.

An agency sells you a platform and a long retainer. A VA does the task but keeps the task manual forever. I remove the task. One flat price, one working system, owned by you, and I am an operator who has run the exact workflows I automate.

The audit exists so neither of us guesses. You get the roadmap and ROI math before committing to a build, and the audit fee is credited if we proceed. On builds, the final payment is not due until the system is live and working on your real work.

That is not what this is. These systems take the repetitive 20% off everyone's plate so your people do the work that needs judgment. Most clients redeploy hours into sales, service, and the backlog nobody could get to.
