An estimate for planning, not a guarantee of time saved or revenue gained. It does not include setup time, other workflow changes, taxes, or your actual results.
HOW THE ESTIMATE WORKS
Simple math, your assumptions.
The baseline multiplies monthly deliverables by follow-ups per deliverable and minutes per follow-up. It converts that time to a labor value using the hourly rate you enter. The scenario slider applies your chosen reduction to that baseline.
Follow-up effort. Include the time you spend writing, checking status, and reading replies for each follow-up.
Scenario. Change the reduction percentage to see how different assumptions affect the estimate. It is not a measured Markum outcome.
A CLEARER CLIENT REVIEW
Put the deliverable and decision in one place.
Markum gives clients a review link without an account and keeps their comments, requested changes, and approval with the work.
Client approval cost questions
Is this a guaranteed savings calculator?
No. It uses the values and scenario percentage you enter. Your actual time and results depend on your work, clients, and process.
What counts as a follow-up?
Count the time you spend checking whether a client reviewed a deliverable, clarifying the next step, or collecting a decision. Use a typical month rather than your busiest week.
Does Markum automatically eliminate follow-ups?
No workflow can guarantee that. Markum gives clients a clear place to review and respond, and records the decision with the work.
What does Markum Pro cost?
Pro is listed at $29 per month, or $278 per year. See the current plans for included features and terms.
