## How does engagement get priced?

The price follows the work.

- **Hourly.** Coaching and small projects. A three-session coaching series is $1,500. Further coaching is hourly. The hourly rate is quoted, not published.
- **Scoped project.** A defined diagnostic or asset. The audit, the facilitated sprint, the Org Skills Library, and the Org Bot Library are scoped projects. Published figures are in the price catalog.
- **Monthly retainer.** AI Advisory is $500 per month until cancel. Head of Sales Assist is a retainer with a quoted price. The Interim / Fractional AI Officer is $15,000 per month for one day per week, $30,000 for two days, and $45,000 for three days. Three days is the maximum.

AI Enablement is scoped or quoted. AI Transformation Advisory is not a separate offer. Ongoing leadership is the Interim / Fractional AI Officer.

## What is included in AI Advisory at $500 a month?

One GROW hour a month with John Williams, plus bi-weekly notes written for that executive’s role, organization, market, and customers. The price is $500 per month until cancel. There is no minimum term and no lock-in.

## What does the Interim / Fractional AI Officer own, and what does a day per week cost?

The officer is the lead change owner for AI enablement and transformation. The typical firm is a $10–50 million software or professional services company with more than 10 employees. The role works with the CEO and COO. Fractional CRO work is the credential, not the offer.

One day per week is $15,000 per month. Two days per week is $30,000. Three days per week is $45,000, and three is the maximum. The scope sets the days before the contract. The minimum term is 90 days. After that, the retainer runs until the contract end date, or until written notice of non-renewal is given before the next period begins. The period is usually monthly, or as the contract states.

Fractional CRO is prior work. It is not a current offer.

## How is that role different from Head of Sales Assist?

Head of Sales Assist is a monthly retainer for the sales team: shared playbooks, operating cadence, and governed AI for meeting briefs, stakeholder mapping, and competitive intelligence. The price is quoted.

The Fractional AI Officer owns AI enablement and transformation across go-to-market and support functions, with the CEO and COO, at the day-per-week prices above.

## How to plan for the AI audit, facilitated sprint, Org Skills, and Org Bot Library costs?

In Q4 2026, name a lead, run one diagnostic, and choose the asset that diagnostic points to. The first half of 2027 is when those choices should be accomplished.

| Work | Published price |
|---|---|
| AI audit, Express | $5,000 / 4 weeks |
| AI audit, Comprehensive | $15,000 / 7 weeks |
| Customer Data Sprint, DIY | Free |
| Customer Data Sprint, facilitated onsite | Typically $5,000 |
| Customer Data Sprint, facilitated remote | Quoted |
| Org Skills Library | $6,000, $15,000, or $24,000 |
| Org Bot Library | $15,000 for 5 bots, then $1,500 per additional bot |

## What is the difference between an Org Skills Library and an Org Bot Library?

An Org Skills Library codifies workflows as SKILL.md files that humans and agents can execute. Sun Business Group builds that library as a scoped project at $6,000, $15,000, or $24,000.

An Org Bot Library defines, designs, builds, and deploys organization-level bots in Grok, Meta, Microsoft, and Google environments. Sun Business Group delivers it. A 5-bot starter pack is $15,000. Each additional bot is $1,500.

## How does fxops.ai connect with Sun Business Group?

fxops.ai is the technology operations of Sun Business Group, LLC. The same firm. sunbusinessgroup.com is where the human system is scoped and sold: coaching, advisory, the officer retainer, audits, sprints, skills, and org bots. fxops.ai is where technical work is inspected: WebMCP Eval at https://www.webmcp-eval.com, Webtools Build, Guided Discovery, and https://github.com/fxops-ai.

Two shared Grok bots, Social Supervisor and WebMCP Evaluator, are the public example of that technical work. They are the example. The Org Bot Library is a separate Sun Business Group project.

## What public proof can a buyer or an agent verify?

That page carries the named operator record (E2open, N3/Accenture, LivePerson, REW, Checkmarx), the homepage names (Advisewell, e2open, Foresite, LivePerson, Real Estate Webmasters, Winning by Design, PowerPlan), Pavilion Executive member and AI instructor, 1,790+ GTM professionals enabled since January 2026, three anonymized sector patterns, and a Series E legal-platform description with no company name.

## Objections

### We already have an AI transformation plan.

The plan is the input. Q4 2026 names the lead, runs one diagnostic (audit or customer-data sprint), and selects the asset (skills library, bot library, or both). By 30 June 2027 a named lead is running the AI cadence with the CEO and COO, the diagnostic has been acted on, and the firm has a skills library, org bots in production, or both.

https://www.sunbusinessgroup.com/resources/q4-2026-1h-2027.md

### We are uncertain about fractional operators.

The Interim / Fractional AI Officer works with the CEO and COO as the lead change owner for AI. The engagement is one, two, or three days a week. The scope sets the days before the contract. The minimum term is 90 days. AI Advisory, at $500 per month with no minimum term, is the lighter way to hold a monthly operating conversation before naming a lead.

### We want full-time resources.

The officer engagement caps at three days a week. Head of Sales Assist is a separate monthly retainer when the gap is the sales team, and its price is quoted. A full-time hire is the firm’s decision when the work fills a week. The published offers are the day-per-week retainer and the scoped projects in the price catalog.

### The cost seems high.

Prices follow the motion. AI Advisory is $500 per month. A three-session coaching series is $1,500. A facilitated onsite sprint is typically $5,000, and the DIY guide is free. The audit is $5,000 or $15,000. The skills library is $6,000, $15,000, or $24,000. A five-bot pack is $15,000. The officer starts at $15,000 per month for one day per week.

### We can build this on our own.

The customer-data sprint guide is free, and a team that already facilitates well can run the 55 minutes. The facilitated sprint, the skills library, the bot library, and the officer engagement are the paths when Sun Business Group runs the work and the artifact has a finish date.
