AI Chief of Staff Cohort

Build Your AI Chief of Staff

A 4-week cohort for independent consultants who are done letting admin run their practice.

10 seats remaining. First cohort — founding rate.

The Problem

You're running a $100K+ practice mostly by yourself.

You're good at the work. Your clients get results. Referrals come in.

But behind the scenes, your practice is running you.

  • Follow-ups slip because you're in delivery mode
  • Your BD pipeline goes cold between projects
  • Proposals take hours to write from scratch
  • Testimonials are sitting uncaptured
  • Your inbox is a second job
  • And somewhere on your to-do list is "build better systems" — next quarter

It's not a skills problem. It's not a time problem.

It's a staffing problem.

You need a Chief of Staff.

The Solution

Build your AI Chief of Staff — in 4 weeks, with a cohort of peers.

In the CoS Cohort, you'll build a system that runs 10 core services in your practice — so you stop dropping balls and start growing with consistency.

This isn't a course. It's not a lecture series. It's a build session.

Over 4 weeks, in a small group of 8–10 consultants, you'll:

  • Map your practice's operating system
  • Build each CoS service using AI tools you already have (or can get free)
  • See what's working in other consultants' practices — live
  • Leave with everything running, not just learned

How It Works

4 sessions × 4 weeks × 8–10 seats

Format
Live on Zoom, 90 minutes each session
Structure
Framework teach → live demo → hands-on build → group Q&A
Between sessions
You implement and run. Bring questions back to the group.
Group size
8–10 consultants — small enough for real engagement
Support
Group cohort channel (no private Slack at this tier)

Important: The CoS Cohort is group support only. No 1:1 private Slack at this price point. Group help is affordable — personalization is available at higher tiers. See the pricing comparison below.

What You'll Have After 4 Weeks

A practice that feels staffed — without the overhead.

  • All 10 CoS services configured for your specific practice
  • A weekly operating rhythm that runs without reminders
  • A library of prompts and templates built around your clients, offers, and voice
  • A peer community of consultants who've built the same system
  • A practice that feels staffed — without the overhead
This is for
  • Independent consultants running a $100K–$150K/yr practice
  • Already using AI in some form but without a consistent system
  • Tired of good ideas that never become habits
  • Want to grow without hiring full-time staff
This is NOT for
  • People looking for general AI productivity tips (this is practice-specific)
  • Consultants who want a done-for-you service at this price point (see Full Setup Sprint)
  • Teams or agencies — this is built for solo and independent practitioners
About Pat Ferdig

I'm a partnering consultant and the Founder of ConsultKit. I built my AI Chief of Staff for my own practice first — the system you'll build in this cohort is the one I run every week in my own business.

I've spent the last year building the tools, prompts, and workflows that make this work for solo consultants. The CoS Cohort is how I help you build yours — fast, and without doing it alone.

This founding cohort is built from the live operating system Pat uses in his own consulting practice: weekly business development rhythm, meeting prep, follow-up capture, proposal drafting, and client-delivery support.

The first group is intentionally small so each participant can build against real client work instead of watching a generic course.

FAQ

Common questions

What tools do I need?

A Claude or ChatGPT subscription ($20/month) is the only hard requirement. Notion or a similar note system is helpful. Everything else is optional. ConsultKit apps complement several CoS services but are not required to participate.

I already use ChatGPT. Is this still for me?

Probably — if you're using it ad hoc but don't have a consistent system. Using ChatGPT when you think of it is different from having a Chief of Staff. Most consultants who use AI casually get about 20% of the potential value. The CoS framework unlocks the other 80%.

Is this a live cohort or a recorded course?

Live. All 4 sessions run live on Zoom. We don't sell recorded access — the value is in the real-time build and group Q&A. Sessions are recorded and shared with cohort members only.

What if I miss a session?

We strongly recommend attending all 4 sessions live. If you miss one, the recording is available to cohort members.

What happens after the cohort?

You have a running Chief of Staff. If you want ongoing support, Office Hours is $250/month — group Q&A, available to past cohort members. Private coaching is available at $250/hour.

Is there a guarantee?

Show up to all 4 sessions and implement the work between calls. If you don't have at least 5 of the 10 CoS services running by the end of week 4, we'll schedule a follow-up private session at no charge.

When does the first cohort start?

June 15, 2026

This is the first cohort. We have 10 seats.

When they fill, enrollment closes. The next cohort will be priced higher. If you want in at the founding rate — now is the time.
