Why we priced it this way
Most software companies charge a flat monthly fee whether the software actually moves your business forward or not. We don't love that model — we've been burned by it ourselves running our HVAC shop. So we built something different.
The 8% share makes sure Maximus has to earn it.If he doesn't recover meaningful revenue, the share is small. If he's working hard, the share scales with the value he's producing — same way you'd pay a salesperson on commission.
The $497/month floor keeps him sharp.Some months your shop will be steady-state. Maximus is still answering calls, drafting collections, prepping morning briefings, and producing the documented operations a buyer values. The floor pays for that infrastructure even when there's no big recovery to show.
The frame
Whether you sell in two years or twenty or never, Maximus produces the same output: documented operations, clean books, KPI history, an owner who can step away. That's what a buyer pays a higher multiple for. It's also what makes the next five years of running your shop less exhausting. Build it like you'd sell it. Whether you sell or not.
What counts as recovered revenue?
Maximus only charges on completed outcomes. Activity (calls answered, emails sent) is never charged. Only results.

Build it like you'd sell it.
The only way to lose money is to not start. Every day you wait costs an estimated $787 in missed calls and forgotten customers — and zero progress on the documented operations a buyer pays for.
Look in the MirrorP.S. — Temperature Pros recovered $31,247 in 90 days. On Founding 20 pricing, that's roughly $2,500 in fees. Nirav kept $28,747 and added 90 days of documented operations to the asset.
