Your agency probably has this problem.

Revenue keeps growing. But your profit doesn't.

Some clients look successful. Until you calculate delivery costs.

Projects slowly become more expensive. Extra revisions. More meetings. More support. More hours.

The retainer never changes.

By the end of the month… you're working harder… for less profit.

You usually don't discover this until your accountant tells you weeks later.

By then it's already too late.

Spreadsheets don't catch profit leaks.

You update spreadsheets once a month.

Profit changes every day.

Costs change every day.

Hours change every day.

Retainers stay the same.

By the time your spreadsheet tells you something…

the money is already gone.

That's exactly why we built Pace.

Pace continuously tracks every client.

Every hour logged. Every dollar spent. Every budget consumed. Every margin. Every forecast.

Instead of telling you what happened… Pace tells you what's about to happen.

How Pace works.

Three steps.

01

Import clients.

Import your clients and retainers. Set revenue, target margin, and delivery budget. Takes minutes.

02

Track retainers and delivery.

Connect your team. Record actual hours. Pace calculates real profit for every client automatically.

03

Know exactly where profit comes from.

See margin in real time. Get alerts the moment a retainer starts losing money. Fix it before month-end.

What you are looking at: budget burn in real time

See which clients are burning budget faster than expected.

This client has used 71% of their delivery budget. But only 42% of the month has passed.

Without Pace, you would not notice until the invoice came. With Pace, you see it today and adjust before the margin disappears.

What you are looking at: margin forecast

Know before month-end whether you will hit your profit target.

This retainer is heading toward a 19% margin. Target is 35%. The gap is 16 points.

Pace projects this three weeks before month-end. You have time to fix it. Adjust scope. Renegotiate. Pause work. Make a decision before the profit is gone.

One bad client can erase the profit from five good ones.

You know this feeling. A client who pays well but requires constant extra revisions. Endless meetings. Scope creep that somehow never changes the retainer.

Meanwhile, the team is overworked. The hours keep climbing. And the margin you thought you had quietly disappears.

Pace shows you exactly which clients are worth keeping. And which ones are quietly costing you more than they bring in.

Here is what they say.

We had one retainer we thought was our best client. Turned out they were barely breaking even. Pace showed us the numbers in five minutes.

Sarah Chen

Agency Owner, Northstar Media

I used to spend three days at month-end reconciling spreadsheets. Now I open Pace and I know exactly where every client stands. That is a week per quarter I get back.

Marcus Webb

Operations Manager, Aster Labs

We caught a $14,000 margin leak three weeks into the month because Pace alerted us. Without it, we would not have noticed until the P&L came out.
