Claude Code Implementation
Power User in 2 Weeks, Not 80 Hours
Most Claude Code setups plateau fast. I spent 80 hours figuring this out so you don't have to. Get a system that compounds — built by an operator who runs this daily at a Series A company.
You've tried the free path.
Three months in, still doing the same three things
You installed Claude Code, ran some prompts, maybe built a CLAUDE.md from a blog post. Month one felt promising. Month three, you're using it like an expensive autocomplete.
Features don't compound. Systems do.
A user asks Claude to write an email. An operator has a skill that loads the prospect's competitive landscape, last 3 emails, and CRM context before drafting.
Knowledge walks out the door with every departure
New hires take 3 weeks to get up to speed because competitive intel lives in people's heads, not infrastructure.
The gap isn't knowledge — it's context engineering
Anthropic's docs are excellent. The gap is building a system tuned to YOUR workflows, YOUR domain, YOUR tools. That's the difference between user and operator.
30 Implementations
Here's what happened.
One operator saved $3,000 in legal and tax costs within the first week — the system surfaced connections their manual research missed.
Went from "3 weeks to get up to speed" to producing competitive battlecards in 30 minutes — because knowledge lives in infrastructure now, not someone's head.
Said "my team isn't technical enough for this." Had her marketing director producing structured content briefs independently within 10 days.

Two tiers. Different problems, different builds.
Individual operators hitting a plateau need different work than teams building knowledge infrastructure.
Personal Tier
~$1,500
For individual operators who want a working system without spending 80 hours figuring it out.
- •Fully built and tuned Claude Code instance
- •Personal coaching sessions (not a course)
- •Power user in 2 weeks, producing from day one
- •Your system, your data, no lock-in
Bespoke Tier
$10K–$25K
For teams building knowledge infrastructure that compounds across people.
- •Portable context graph of your business
- •Integration with existing tools (CRM, content, calls)
- •New hires up to speed in days, not weeks
- •Team training so the system sustains itself
Process transparency
Personal Timeline
Day 1: Discovery call
I learn your tools, workflows, role, and biggest bottlenecks.
Day 2-3: System build
I build your system: CLAUDE.md, skills, workflows, all tuned to your context.
Day 3: Handoff
You have a working system. Immediate compound value from day one.
Week 1-2: Coaching
Working sessions on your actual tasks. I watch what you're doing, suggest better patterns, build skills as gaps emerge.
After: Independence
You own everything. Optional ongoing coaching if you want it. Most people don't need it.
Bespoke Timeline
Week 1: Deep discovery
I ingest your docs, calls, processes, competitive intel. I map the knowledge graph.
Week 2: Build
Context graph, skills, workflows, integrations. Working demos throughout — not a "big reveal" at the end.
Week 3: Train
Your team learns the system on their real work. I iterate based on what doesn't land.
Week 4: Harden
Edge cases, documentation, sustainability check. I make sure this runs without me.
After: Ownership
You own everything. No ongoing retainer required. Optional quarterly tune-ups available.
Pricing
| Personal | Bespoke | |
|---|---|---|
| Investment | ~$1,500 | $10K–$25K |
| Timeline | 2 weeks to power user | 4 weeks to full system |
| Scope | Individual operator | Team + infrastructure |
| Ongoing cost | $0 (you own it) | $0 (you own it) |

No SOWs. No project managers. No 12-week timelines. You pay once. You own the system.
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from just taking a course?
Courses give you knowledge — 40+ hours of abstract lessons. I give you a working system configured for what you actually need. The math: 40 hours at $150/hr loaded rate = $6,000 opportunity cost. Or $1,500 for a system that works on day one.
Why not just use Cursor or Copilot?
Different tools for different people. Cursor helps developers write code faster. Claude Code helps operators build business systems — content workflows, prospect research, competitive intelligence, meeting prep.
Can my team use this if they're not technical?
Yes. The Personal tier is designed for non-engineers. If you can use email and a spreadsheet, you can use Claude Code after setup. I handle the technical configuration.
What happens to my data?
You own everything. Your context graph, skills, workflows — all of it lives in your own infrastructure. Nothing is stored on my systems after the engagement ends.
How is this different from a freelancer on Upwork?
A freelancer gives you configuration hours. I give you a system plus coaching plus compound value that grows over time. No freelancer builds a context graph or teaches you to extend it.
Do you offer ongoing support?
The system is built to be self-sustaining. Most clients don't need ongoing support. Optional quarterly tune-ups available but not required.
Still on the plateau?
Book a 20-minute discovery call. No pitch. I'll tell you honestly whether you're ready or whether the DIY path still makes sense for your situation.
