The real cost of not having one system.

Slow follow-up loses commission. A stitched-together stack duplicates spend. Chasing leads by hand burns hours you never get paid for. Enter your numbers and watch all three stack up.

This estimate is illustrative and based on the figures you enter, using industry response-time research (78% of buyers purchase from the first responder). It combines commission associated with leads reached too late to convert, the cost of tools Kadence consolidates, and the value of time spent on tasks Kadence automates. It is not a guarantee of income or results. Individual outcomes depend on your market, product mix, and sales process.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the three costs this calculator adds up?

Commission lost to slow follow-up, the monthly tool stack Kadence consolidates into one platform, and the value of the selling hours you spend on follow-up and admin. They are usually counted separately, or not at all, which is why the combined annual figure surprises people.

How is the value of my time calculated?

Your weekly hours on follow-up and admin are multiplied by 4.33, the average number of weeks in a month, then by what an hour of selling is worth to you. It prices the hours at what you would have earned in front of a buyer instead, which is the real trade.

Why does the whole tool stack count as a loss?

Because Kadence replaces it. The figure is what you would stop paying, not a claim that the tools do nothing. If Kadence only replaced part of your stack, enter only that part and the estimate stays honest.

Is the figure a guarantee?

No. It is an educational estimate built entirely from the figures you enter, not a promise of results or income. Actual outcomes vary by market, product mix, and process. Kadence does not provide financial advice.
