Founding client offer

The first 5 clients pay no setup fee.

Warnock Solutions is building its first base of local clients. Be one of the first five and the setup fee is waived. In return, you commit to at least 3 months and, if you’re happy with the results, leave a Google review or a short testimonial. The monthly price is the same as everyone else’s.

Bigger or custom work

A fixed quote, not an open-ended bill.

Custom AI tools, connecting systems like an ERP, or a bigger workflow get a fixed project price after the free assessment. Where it makes sense, ongoing work becomes part of a monthly plan.

What drives the cost

How many systems are involved

One phone line is simpler than a phone line, a website, a CRM and an ERP.

Ready-made or custom

The plans above use proven building blocks. Tools built from scratch take longer.

How much ongoing support you want

Every plan is managed for you, with updates and changes as your business grows.

The best way to keep cost down: start with one problem, not a pile of tools. Read why to start with the problem, see AI for manufacturers, or .

Built by Ben

Real tools, already at work.

Two things I built with AI: one I use on every client assessment, and one that helps kids at my church and school learn Scripture.

AIM Assess: a guided business interview with a live transcript and an AI collaborator panel

My light-bulb moment

AIM Assess

I come from manufacturing management, so I know how businesses run — but not every industry. I built this AI interview guide to bridge that gap. It helps me ask the right questions anywhere and spot what matters as we talk. I use it on every assessment, the same way I’ll help you use AI in your business.

Stand Firm: a game character in armor, with the current quest “Shield of Faith, Ephesians 5:1-2”

For the kids at my church and school

Stand Firm

A Scripture memory game where kids earn armor as they master each passage. It’s built real excitement among the kids about learning Scripture.

“The app Ben developed has been a game changer for our students at Shiloh Christian Academy, making memorizing God’s Word fun and exciting while giving us the administrative tools we need to manage the program effectively.”

— Pastor Steve, Shiloh Christian Academy

Questions

Common questions

What does AI consulting cost for a small business?

With Warnock Solutions, the first conversation and the assessment are free. Managed plans are $299, $499 or $999 a month, plus a one-time setup fee of $299 or $499. Bigger or custom projects get a fixed quote after the free assessment.

Is the assessment really free?

Yes. Both versions are free: a quick 15-minute conversation, or a longer assessment of about an hour, in person or by video. You leave with a clear picture of where AI could help, whether or not you work with us.

What is the founding client offer?

The first 5 clients pay no setup fee. In return, they commit to at least 3 months and, if they are happy with the results, leave a Google review or a short testimonial. The monthly price is the same as everyone else’s.

What does the setup fee cover?

Building the system for your business: setting it up, connecting it to your phone number, website and social pages, writing the messages in your voice, and testing it with you before it goes live.

Can I start small and upgrade later?

Yes. Each plan includes the one below it, so upgrading adds to what is already running instead of starting over. Most businesses start with the problem that costs them the most today.

What about custom AI tools or bigger projects?

Custom tools, connecting systems like an ERP, or a bigger workflow get a fixed project quote after the free assessment, never an open-ended hourly bill. Where it makes sense, ongoing work is folded into a monthly plan instead.
