For owners of established local-service businesses
Your business still runs through you. In 45 minutes, see exactly why — and the plan to fix it.
The Bottleneck Audit is a done-by-Rhize diagnosis of where you're losing time, leads, and jobs across all three parts of your business — with a prioritized plan you can act on, whether you hire us or not.
45 minutes with Tom & Jim. No pitch. You leave with a plan.
You know something's leaking. You just can't see where.
You're working more than ever and the business still runs through you. Quotes only you can send. Leads that slip. Seven logins that don't talk. You've tried more software, another agency, a little AI — and none of it moved the number that matters.
Here's the thing: you can't fix what you can't see. Most owners are guessing at which routine is actually costing them — and guessing wrong is expensive.
The Audit ends the guessing.
What we look at
We trace your whole business across three areas.
Get Found
Where your leads come from (or don't): local search, ads, referrals, the gaps letting competitors show up first.
Get Customers
What happens after a lead comes in: speed-to-lead, follow-up, booking, the quotes that sit because only you can send them.
Run the Business
What only lives in your head: the SOPs, the handoffs, the tasks keeping you the single point of failure.
We follow one customer through all three, start to finish, and mark every place it leaks or stalls.
What you get
What's included.
Pre-call survey + intake — We map your current setup before we ever meet — so the call is diagnosis, not discovery.
The full Bottleneck Diagnosis — Every routine across the three pillars, with the biggest leaks named.
Your Fix-First Plan — Every fix ranked by impact, so you know exactly what to do first.
The 45-minute walkthrough call — With Tom & Jim, the founders — not a rep. We build it with you live.
The plan is yours to keep — Act on it yourself, hand it to your team, or have us build it. Your call.
A real $997 engagement — waived when you book a free call with us.
Why it's $997 — and why yours is free.
The Audit is real work: hours of digging into your business and a plan you could hand to anyone to execute. So for a standalone audit, we charge $997, and it's worth it.
But if you came here through one of our free tools — the Rhize-Scan, the plugins — and you book a call, we waive it. Completely. No card, no catch. We'd rather earn the build by showing you we're worth it first.

Takes a few minutes — it's how we show up already knowing your business.
We build your audit.
We do the digging before the call.
We walk you through it live.
You leave with the ranked plan. If you want us to build the fixes — one pillar, two, or all three — we'll talk about it. If not, the plan's still yours.
You leave with a plan. Period.
No pitch, no hard sell. You'll walk away from the call with at least three specific fixes you could implement on your own. If you ever pay for a standalone Audit and don't get that, it's free — but honestly, most owners never pay, because the free tools waive it.
This is for you if…
You own an established local-service business and the whole thing runs through you.
You're past "we need more leads" and into "I can't scale myself."
You've been burned by an agency or a pile of software that didn't move the needle.
You want a plan you own — not another vendor you're locked into.
