What a Claude consultant does for a small business
A Claude consultant for a small business sets Claude up for the whole team: the right Claude plan, one business profile Claude reads before every task, the tools you already run connected, every role configured, custom Claude plugins for the work only your business does, and each person trained before they get access. Strategized.ai is an independent Claude consultancy for owner-led businesses of one to twenty-five people, led by Michael Robichaud.

One senior operator. No handoffs.
Most agencies sell you the founder and staff you with the intern. Strategized.ai is built for owner-led businesses and led by Michael Robichaud, who has run marketing, sales and the businesses themselves for nearly thirty years, backed by a team of experienced Claude developers who build what he designs. Claude does the volume. We do the judgment. You always know who is doing the work, because it is the person you met, and the team he leads.
Anonymized, dated, every number sourced. No client names, no invented metrics.

Leave an email and pick the thing you are trying to do. You get back a short written note with the two or three moves that fit your business, from Michael, not a sequence.
One reply within a business day. No drip. Or skip it and contact Michael directly.
How the work splits (85/15)
We do about 85% of the work: strategy, execution, measurement and project management. The other 15% is yours: access, approvals and the decisions only an owner can make. If a task can be done by someone outside your business with the right access and context, it is in our 85%.
The exit clause
Any monthly engagement can be ended at the end of any month, for any reason, with no reason required. We would rather earn the next month than lock it in.
A short call first
Twenty minutes, no pitch deck. You tell us what is not working; we tell you which lane fits and what it would cost. If a written audit is the better first step, we say so and scope it in writing before anything starts.
Proof, with dates
Anonymized, dated write-ups of real engagements. Client names are left out; every number is sourced. See all case studies.
Claude consultant questions
What does a Claude consultant do?
A Claude consultant sets Claude up for a business and its team: the right Claude plan, a shared business profile Claude reads before every task, the tools the business already runs connected, every role configured, custom Claude plugins built for repeat work, and people trained before they get access. Strategized.ai does this for owner-led businesses of one to twenty-five people, then hands it over.
How much does a Claude consultant cost?
Strategized.ai publishes its prices. The Claude Build Plan is a fixed $1,500 fee, and the plan is yours to keep. The 14-Day Implementation Sprint starts at $2,997. Team Setup starts at $5,500 for the owner plus two people, plus $750 for each additional person. Ongoing help is the Claude Support Plan from $1,200 a month or a Fractional AI Lead from $3,500 a month. Your Claude subscription is billed separately by Anthropic. Details are on the pricing page.
Is Claude a good fit for a small business?
It is for most businesses whose work runs on email, documents, proposals, reports and client communication, once it is set up for the way the business runs. The difference comes from the setup: a shared business profile, the right tools connected for each role, and tested workflows. Without that, each person gets different answers from the same tool.
Can I set Claude up myself, or do I need a Claude consultant?
Many owners set Claude up for their own use without help. A consultant earns the fee when Claude goes to a team: choosing the plan, connecting company tools safely, building shared skills and custom plugins, and training each person on security and usage before they get access. If you are not sure, start with a short call.
Is Strategized.ai affiliated with Anthropic?
No. Strategized.ai is an independent Claude consultancy and is not affiliated with Anthropic. Anthropic makes Claude and bills your Claude subscription. Strategized.ai sets Claude up for your business, builds the workflows and plugins, trains your people and hands it over.
