# For marketing leaders who spend hours a week keeping up

Verbatim Pro is a USD 29 a month plan from Verbatim, a product of The Art of Service founded by Gerard Blokdyk, that turns 900+ business podcasts into a ten-minute weekly brief with watchlists and next-morning alerts. When a rebrand or site change is coming, the USD 497 Pivot Check brief sets buyer words against your draft first, delivered within two business days. Every quote links to the second it was said.

## Sounds like your role?

- Keeping up eats hours you don't have.
- Competitor news reaches you late.
- The rebrand keeps stopping for more research.
- Your team wants the source, not your memory of it.

## The Monday Signal Desk

It lays out a marketing leader's week as one desk: three trays to clear on Monday, and a drawer for the bigger decision.

- **This week's moments**: the Monday brief on your topics
- **Watchlist alerts**: your brand and competitors, the morning after
- **Decisions pending**: the quotes you saved for a call
- **Pivot Check**: USD 497 before a big change
