Overview

Following our call, this proposal sets out how we would build NDM an AI layer that works inside the tools you already use, starting with one high-value piece and expanding one sprint at a time, with a prioritized map of everything worth building next.

NDM is a full-service advertising agency of more than 40 people, specializing in senior living and healthcare, with creative, copy, digital, and organic social teams and a fractional finance function. You already use AI well on the creative side, and you have started using a personal AI assistant to find files, catch missed emails, and check in on the business.

What you do not have yet is that same capability wired into the tools the whole team runs on. You want to move from one personal chat window to a company-wide AI layer, with an assistant for each team and clear guardrails so sensitive information stays with the people who should see it.

What you want

Find any file, email, or deck in plain English, instead of asking someone where it lives.
Duplicate, update, and rebrand RFP decks and documents quickly, on-brand to each prospect.
See performance in Wrike at a glance: utilization, hours, budgets, deadlines, and profitability by client and project.
A private “Ask NDM” view for you across finances and email, walled off from the team.
An assistant for each team that does real work, rolled out one sprint at a time.
Clear roles and guardrails, so each person only sees what they should.

How we work

Our approach is deliberately straightforward. We map the situation, we build it, then we support you running it. We start small and modular on purpose: we pick one high-value piece, build it fast, prove it works, then move to the next. That keeps every step reliable and lets you see real value before committing to the big picture.

Map

We look at your stack and how each team works, agree which tools to connect first and which assistant pays off fastest, and turn it into a prioritized build map.

Build

We connect your tools and build the first working assistant, then the next, one sprint at a time, starting with the highest-value, lowest-risk win.

Run

We support you running it, with weekly or biweekly calls, every hour on a report, and the system documented and owned by you.

Who you work with. Matt and Luana lead the engagement and the calls, and do the work directly. Where a deeper custom build is needed, Flavio, our senior technical lead, joins as the architect. You work with the same small team throughout, not a chain of handoffs.

It is the same team behind 250+ delivered projects, 3,500+ automations, and a 5.0 rating from more than 120 clients. MapMatix is a HubSpot Solutions Partner.

Every engagement begins the same way, with a fixed starting point of about 15 business days that we call the Map Sprint. The next page shows exactly what that looks like, day by day.

The Map Sprint

Every engagement begins with the Map Sprint, our fixed starting point of about 15 business days. The moment you get started, your portal is set up and we book your kickoff. From there, you always know exactly what happens next and when.

What we promise

Within about 15 business days of kickoff: your first automation live, your Map built and prioritized, and everything documented in your portal.

Day 1–2

Kickoff call

A 60-minute call with your key people. We set your goals, look at how work flows today, and choose your first win together.

Day 3

Your Map goes live

Within two days of kickoff, your goals and first win appear on your own Map in the portal. No “we’ll get back to you.”

By day 10

Your first win goes live

We build, verify, and ship your first win, then document it the same day. Your team feels it working, not just a plan on paper.

Day 13

Roadmap call

We walk your Map together and share what our review of your stack found. You prioritize what matters most: now, next, or later.

Day 15

Training and handover

We train your team on what is live, tour your portal, and hand over the documentation. Everything is yours to keep.

What you walk away with

At least one automation live and documented, your Map populated with prioritized opportunities and effort ranges, a library of SOPs and guides for everything shipped, and a clear, agreed next step. Yours to keep, whether we keep building together or your team takes it from here.

What we'll need from you

Time with the right people for the kickoff and working calls.
Access to the tools we will connect, at the right permission level.
A look at representative examples of how you work today: key documents, and the workflows and reports you rely on.
A single point of contact on your side to coordinate access and answer questions.

Everything shared with us, including data, processes, and customer information, is treated as confidential.

Investment

We work on a retainer. You deposit a prepaid balance, we draw it down only as we work, and any unused balance is always yours, refunded or rolled forward, never lost. Every hour appears on a report in your client portal, and if the work is going to run long, you hear it first.

Recommended for you
$2,500
Initial retainer · your first step
$125 per hour, drawn down as we work
✓ Zero-risk: refunded in full if you are not satisfied in your first 10 hours

This is the recommended way to begin. The initial retainer starts our work together, focused on the Map Sprint, and draws down at $125 per hour. If the work needs more than it covers, you hear it first.

From there, most clients move onto a monthly retainer to keep building month over month at a lower locked rate. Any balance left in your initial retainer carries over, and your first month is billed in full.

Monthly plans run on a 3-month minimum, then month to month. Annual commits for 12 months, billed monthly at the locked lower rate. Unused hours roll over. This proposal is valid for 30 days from the date on the cover.
