ONE PERSON
INSIDE YOUR BUSINESS.
THE WHOLE OF TMI BEHIND THEM.

It is a trained TMI operator placed inside your business, on site, who helps execute what matters, sees where the company is stuck, connects those problems back to TMI, and helps move the business toward better systems, more attention, stronger founder presence and more founder freedom. One person inside your business, with the full TMI company behind them.

It is the same model, widened. Embedded Operations described someone who worked on how the company runs. The Embedded Company Partner also carries attention, founder brand and founder freedom, because in practice the person who sees the operation is also the person who sees what is worth publishing and why the founder is still being called. The operations page now redirects here.

No. It is not a personal assistant, a virtual assistant, a temp employee, a social media manager alone, a consultant who only gives advice, a marketing agency rep, or a technology salesperson. An assistant completes a task and the task stays exactly as it is. An embedded partner completes the task in order to understand it, then helps TMI make it shorter, automatic or unnecessary. If the same manual task is still being done six months later, we want to know why.

Five words: execute, observe, surface, connect, implement. Help move real work. See how the company actually runs. Bring the problems and opportunities back to TMI. Pull in the right TMI capability. Then make sure the solution is genuinely used.

No, and the model does not ask them to be. The partner is inside the business and can pull in the rest of TMI when needed. You get one main point person; behind that person is the whole TMI system.

Operations, AI and automation, technology, internal systems, customer experience, sales follow-up, CRM, SOPs, process cleanup, team coordination, implementation, social media, content execution, founder brand, attention growth, marketing coordination, reputation, business visibility, project follow-through and founder freedom. The scope is agreed with you at the start.

Not necessarily. Most agencies sit outside the business and have to ask what to post. The partner is inside it and sees what is worth posting, so whoever produces the content finally has the stories, footage, proof and people to work from.

No. They take work off people and give your existing team a direct line into TMI. The service exists to remove tasks, not roles.

Embedded Company Partnerships start at $3,500 a month, which is roughly one regular onsite day a week inside a defined area. More presence and more areas cost more, and a dedicated embed is scoped. There is also a one-time activation covering placement, access, security, reporting setup and the 90-day execution plan.

Because the first two weeks are real work that happens before any recurring value: leadership kickoff, placing the right operator, company and systems access, security, communication structure, department introductions, priority setting, brand and content access, dashboards, success measures and the 90-day plan. For a smaller engagement it can be reduced.

Engagements run six months minimum, and twelve for larger accounts. This is not a temporary assistant. A full cycle — execute, observe, surface, connect, implement, measure — does not fit inside a month, and neither does adoption.

The Intelligent Company Audit is a 20 to 30 minute diagnosis of the largest constraint on the business. It tells you what needs to change. The Embedded Company Partner is the person inside the company helping make it happen. You can start with either.

On site. The whole point is the information that never reaches a video call: the phone call that is not logged, the note on the monitor, the job that came in on a Friday and was worth publishing. Some follow-up happens remotely, but the partner is in the building.

TMI is based in Lafayette and supports businesses across Louisiana, including Baton Rouge, Lake Charles, New Orleans, Houma, Thibodaux, Shreveport, Monroe and Alexandria. Onsite availability depends on location and the scope of the engagement.

No. TMI is local to Louisiana and works with clients nationwide. Louisiana is where we can be on a floor the same week.

Work entered twice, waiting nobody times, approvals that always clear, knowledge held by one person, reports assembled by hand, steps kept only out of habit, exceptions treated as normal, software paid for and unused, systems that do not talk, margin nobody sees until billing, decisions with no written rule, wins that never get published, proof the website never shows, and initiatives with no owner inside the company.

It gets logged with evidence: how often, how long, what it costs. It is ranked against everything else. TMI then decides what it needs — a rule, a process, an automation, a dashboard, an integration, custom software, a digital employee, or a piece of content. The partner helps implement it and is usually the first person to run it.

No. Plenty of findings are solved by deleting a step, writing down a rule, or using a system you already pay for properly. TMI keeps what works, connects what can be connected, and builds only what is missing.

No. TMI is not an AI company. AI is one tool among several, and on a company with disconnected records it produces confident nonsense. Often the honest first answer is that the business does not need AI yet — it needs its records connected and its process written down.

It is run so that they do not. Nothing goes to the owner that the team has not seen, suggestions from the floor are attributed to the floor, and the partner asks the person doing the work what is wrong with it, because they usually know already.

The baseline is set in the first fortnight, before anything changes, using your data and agreed with you: time per task, touches per job, wait time, owner interruptions, initiatives stalled, published proof. The same measure is taken the same way afterwards. We do not want improvement to be a feeling. We want it measured.

No. TMI publishes no invented ROI figures and no case study numbers. The baseline is set with you, using your data, before any work begins, and the comparison is against that.

Whatever the work requires and no more: the systems used for the tasks they take on, the floor or office where those tasks happen, and content access if attention is in scope. Access is scoped in writing during activation.

Under the terms agreed in the engagement, and private client data never moves between clients. Customer lists, pricing logic and job records stay inside the business they belong to.

Yes, for companies with several locations or departments that all run differently. Partners compare notes, which is usually how a company finds out that two branches solved the same problem in opposite directions.

Then that is what gets reported. Confirming that a process is already the right one has value, and inventing a problem to justify a build does not.

It depends less on headcount than on whether the coordination runs through one person. A twelve-person shop where every exception reaches the owner has the same problem as a hundred-person one, and usually a shorter path to fixing it.

It depends on location and scope. Louisiana engagements move fastest because TMI is based in Lafayette. The consultation establishes the timing honestly rather than optimistically.

After the minimum term the engagement ends and you keep the documentation and whatever has been built and handed over. The service is designed so the company is less dependent after the partner leaves, not more.
