# Start with one market question, then keep the answers coming

Verbatim Custom analysis, from The Art of Service, answers one market question from what operators said on 900+ business podcasts, quoted by hand before any work starts. Buyers who want the same evidence every month move to the Verbatim Advisory Monthly brief at USD 297 a month, matched to their offers and cancellable at any time. Gerard Blokdyk, founder of The Art of Service, scopes each analysis and reads every brief before it is sent.

## This path suits you if

- you have one urgent question and no appetite for a subscription
- you want a fixed quote first
- you want proof you can play back, not a summary
- you may want the same evidence every month once you trust it

## The Answer Ladder Rail

It shows the path from one question to a monthly brief as a rail line, so you can see where you get on and where the track loops back each month.

- **One question**: a custom analysis, quoted by hand, delivered once
- **One brief**: USD 497: your offers against this month's evidence
- **Monthly brief**: USD 297 a month: the same evidence, every month, cancel any time

## What are the three steps?

1. **Custom analysis.** Send one market question, the window and your deadline. Gerard replies with a fixed price and a delivery date. Every finding in the analysis links to the second it was said.
2. **One brief, USD 497.** If you want the evidence matched to your own offers, the One brief finds the buyer pains you already solve, the delivery recipes that worked, new lanes, traffic recipes and a short Build Agenda.
3. **Monthly brief, USD 297 a month.** The same brief every month, delivered within two business days, read by a person before it is sent, cancel any time.

You can start at any station. Nobody has to buy the first step to reach the third.

## Why start with a single question?

A single question is the smallest honest test of whether spoken evidence is useful to you. It has a fixed price, a clear end, and a result you can check by pressing play. If it changes a decision, the monthly brief keeps that evidence arriving without another scoping round. If it does not, you have spent one quote, not a year of subscription.

## FAQ

### How much is a one-off market analysis?

Verbatim Custom analysis is quoted by hand, so there is no list price. Gerard sends a fixed price in USD and a delivery date by email before any work starts, based on your question, the window of episodes and your deadline. Nothing is charged until you accept. The fixed-price alternative is the Verbatim Advisory One brief at USD 497.

### What happens after the analysis?

You keep the analysis, with every finding linked to the second it was said. If you want the same evidence every month, matched to your offers, you can order the Verbatim Advisory Monthly brief at USD 297 a month. There is no automatic upgrade and no follow-on charge unless you choose it.

### How does the monthly brief differ?

The Verbatim Advisory Monthly brief is matched to your offers, not to one question. Each month it reports buyer pains you already solve, delivery recipes that worked with numbers, new lanes and traffic recipes, and ends with a Build Agenda. It is USD 297 a month, delivered within two business days, cancel any time.

### How long does it take?

A Verbatim Custom analysis is delivered on the date stated in its quote, which is set against the deadline you give. A Verbatim Advisory One brief or Monthly brief is delivered within two business days of ordering. Every brief is read by a person before it is sent, so nothing reaches you unchecked.

### What do I receive?

From a Verbatim Custom analysis, a written analysis of your question in the format agreed in the quote. From a Verbatim Advisory brief, a private written brief about your business. Both cite every quote with a link to the exact second it was said; if a link is broken or an attribution wrong, Verbatim refunds.

### Can I cancel the monthly brief?

Yes, at any time from your account, and access continues to the end of the period you paid for. The Verbatim Advisory Monthly brief is USD 297 a month with no contract. A custom analysis has no subscription at all: it ends when it is delivered.
