For marketing & creative agencies · The cobbler's children problem

You build growth engines for clients. Who is building yours?

Agencies answer client leads in minutes and their own in days. We install the growth system your own shop never gets around to: 60-second lead response, pipeline discipline, and a site AI engines can read, so they name your agency when brands ask who to hire.

Aday Interactive, Inc. is a Coral Gables AI systems firm, not a competing creative shop. We install the growth stack agencies sell to clients but never run for themselves: fast lead response, pipeline discipline, and a site AI engines can read.

No credit card, and no obligation.

The new first impression

Brands ask AI before they call.

ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google’s AI answers now hand brands a short list of names, and they cite the sources they trust. We build so your agency is one they can find, trust, and cite by name.

Why this matters right now

Brands now shortlist agencies through AI, the same way your clients' customers find them. Three issues hold agencies back: a funnel that gets the least attention of anything you run, AI-built shortlists, and a feast-or-famine pipeline that is really an operations problem.

  1. 01Your own funnel is the least-maintained asset you own

Response

Your own funnel is the least-maintained asset you own

New-business leads sit unanswered during client sprints. Proposals go out late. Follow-up dies after one email. The revenue leak is not your win rate. It is your response.

Shortlists

Brands now shortlist agencies through AI

"Best B2B content agency for fintech" is a ChatGPT question, and it answers with names built from structured sites and case-study data. Agencies brilliant at client SEO routinely have unstructured sites of their own.

Feast/famine

Feast-or-famine is an operations problem, not a sales problem

No nurture between pitches. No reactivation of past clients. No pipeline visibility. It is the growth stack you would never let a client run without.

Run the check. Ask ChatGPT to shortlist agencies for your ideal client profile. If you are missing, so is pipeline you never knew existed.

What are the inquiries that do not sign worth to your agency?

For client value, use what a typical new client pays in their first year. Pick your main service, then move the sliders to your own numbers.

How to read this estimate. It multiplies the numbers you enter, nothing more. It does not count costs, refunds or unpaid bills, seasonal swings, or how much new work your team can take on. The starting values are rough examples, not industry data or results from any firm. This is not legal, financial, or tax advice, and Aday Interactive, Inc. does not promise any result.

Pricing

What it costs for marketing agencies

Agencies usually buy for their own pipeline first: AI visibility for the agency, then follow-up for the leads it brings in. Starting floors; your exact number comes from one consultation.

Firm Map $197 One verified record of every fact AI uses to identify your firm (one location, up to two principals)Not included: Extra locations and principals, quoted
AI Visibility Intensive from $2,697, or $3,397 on hosted builders Schema in a Week, then the parts of up to 10 pages that AI reads rewritten, a working session, readout, and day-30 re-check. Hosted builders (Squarespace, Wix, HubSpot) route this work through settings panels and add markup of their own, so it takes longer there: $3,397Not included: The Firm Map ($197) first; full body rewrites, quoted
Reputation, Booking, or Follow-Up Engine Lab $497 each One engine built with you: the Reputation Engine on a third Thursday every other month, Booking and Follow-Up when a date opens (join the list); 30 days on the platform includedNot included: The platform seat after 30 days (Solo, $349)
Growth Systems Intensive $1,997 A private online diagnosis, then a Thursday and Friday, 10 to 3, in our Coral Gables office with two or three other firms (or a separate online cohort): booking, follow-up, pipeline, and website AI chat built with you, and your team trained. Online tuning two weeks later; written blueprint and a fixed Implementation quote; 30 days on the platform; credits in full toward Implementation within 60 daysNot included: The platform seat after 30 days (Practice, $649, keeps the AI chat)
Growth Systems Implementation from $4,997 We build the rest and run it for you for 90 days: contact cleanup, full nurture and reactivation, voice AI where scoped, weekly tuning, training, and SOPs; the platform is included for all 90 daysNot included: The platform seat from day 91
Platform seat $349 Solo, $649 Practice, or $1,149 Group, a month Software, hosting, backups, monitoring, a monthly health check, email support, and a usage allowance (Practice adds the AI voice agent and AI chat)Not included: No scheduled hours; usage above the allowance at $0.03 a text segment and $0.25 a voice minute

Worked example

An agency whose own inquiries go cold

Growth Systems Intensive ($1,997): booking, follow-up, pipeline, and AI chat built over two in-person days plus online sessions, with 30 days on the platform. Then the Practice seat ($649 a month), which keeps the AI chat.

From $1,997, then $649 a month.

Each step is bought on its own; this is an example, not a bundle. Hours, usage, credits, and payment terms are the same for every industry and are on the pricing page.

Questions firm owners ask

7 answers
Why would an agency hire an agency?
Because we are not one. We are a systems firm, not a competing creative or media shop, so there is no conflict. We build the growth operations your team is too busy running client work to build for itself. The cobbler's children go barefoot; we put shoes on your shop.
What does the Growth Stack Scan measure?
A 24-question operations diagnostic across intake, CRM, follow-up, and reputation, scored against agency benchmarks. It shows where new-business inquiries wait too long, where proposals lose follow-up, and where past clients are never reactivated.
Can you make ChatGPT recommend our agency?
We structure your case-study data, niche positioning, and founder bylines so engines can name your shop for the categories you want. We do not guarantee a specific citation, because engines decide independently. We build for it and measure it honestly, and we will show you what they say about you today.
We white-label. Can you build AI capability we resell?
Yes. We build white-label AI intake and automation you can put your own brand on and resell to clients, plus the policy and guardrails that make it safe to offer.
Will this conflict with our own martech stack?
No. It runs in your accounts and integrates with what you already use for CRM, email, and reporting. We add the response speed and pipeline discipline, not a rip-and-replace.
What does an engagement cost?
The diagnostic is a one-time $14.97. Most agencies then start with the Growth Systems Intensive ($1,997): booking, follow-up, pipeline, and AI chat built over two in-person days plus online sessions, with 30 days on the platform. After that, the platform seat starts at $349 a month. The pricing section on this page lists what agencies usually buy, and every price is on our pricing page before you commit.
How fast is "live"?
One to two weeks for the intake and lead-response core. The systems that stop the revenue leak are the fastest to stand up.

Response time

Response time is a target, not a promise. Our AI intake agents aim to answer in under 60 seconds, and typically respond within one to three minutes. Actual timing depends on third-party voice, SMS, and network delivery, which we do not control. We measure the real number and report it in your dashboard rather than guarantee it. Speed also depends on correct account setup, carrier registration (A2P 10DLC), and your intake configuration.
