What is manual admin actually costing your business?

Three numbers in. One uncomfortable truth out. This counts the admin across your whole team, not just your own week, because that is where the hours actually are.

Chasing, retyping, quoting, booking, following up, reporting. The average UK small business owner alone reports 11.

What it would cost to hand this work to someone else. We never use your own charge out rate: it inflates the number and it is not what the work is worth.

TO DELEGATE IT

Based on 48 working weeks and a 7 hour day. The pound figure is a floor, not a prize: it is what the work would cost to delegate, the most conservative way to value it, and it takes no account of what the reclaimed time could earn if it went into growing the business. Your own time is worth considerably more, which is rather the point.

That number is an estimate. Your score is specific.

This tool takes three inputs. The Hidden Hours Score takes sixteen questions in three minutes, then tells you which six everyday tasks your hours are actually going on, ranked, and which three AI should take off your plate first.
