Getting Started

What is HivePowered.Ai?

HivePowered.Ai is an AI-powered digital marketing agency based in Sacramento, CA. We combine dedicated Marketing Sidekicks with advanced AI tools and the Automate AI platform to help businesses streamline their marketing, automate customer engagement, and scale operations without juggling multiple vendors or tools.

How do I get started with HivePowered.Ai?

Getting started is simple. You can schedule a discovery call with our team to discuss your needs, or start with a 7-day free trial of Automate AI. We'll guide you through setup, training, and customization based on your business goals.

What types of businesses do you work with?

We work with businesses of all sizes across various industries including insurance, staffing agencies, roofing companies, healthcare, legal services, home services, automotive, retail, and more. Whether you're a startup or an enterprise, our solutions scale to fit your needs.

Is there a free trial available?

Yes! We offer a 7-day free trial of Automate AI so you can experience the platform before committing. This includes access to core features like CRM, automation, calendars, and our AI tools. No credit card required to start.

Do I need technical skills to use your services?

Not at all. Our platform is designed to be user-friendly with drag-and-drop builders, visual workflow editors, and intuitive interfaces. Plus, your Marketing Sidekick handles the technical work for you, and we provide training resources through Automate Academy.

Where is HivePowered.Ai located?

We're headquartered in the Greater Sacramento area, California. However, we support businesses across California and throughout the United States. Our remote-first approach means we can work with clients anywhere.

What makes HivePowered.Ai different from other agencies?

Unlike traditional agencies, we combine a dedicated Marketing Sidekick with the power of AI tools and the collective expertise of "The Hive" (our specialist network). This gives you personalized attention, faster turnaround, and access to multiple skill sets—all at a fraction of the cost of hiring in-house or using multiple vendors.

Can I try before I commit to a plan?

Absolutely. Start with our 7-day free trial of Automate AI, or schedule a discovery call to discuss which plan fits your needs. There are no long-term contracts required—our plans are month-to-month, so you can adjust or cancel anytime.

Marketing Sidekick

What is a Marketing Sidekick?

A Marketing Sidekick is your dedicated marketing specialist who handles day-to-day marketing tasks for your business. They serve as your single point of contact and can tap into "The Hive" (our network of specialists) when projects require additional expertise in areas like design, SEO, automation, or video.

What tasks can a Marketing Sidekick help with?

Your sidekick can assist with branding, content creation, social media management, web design (within Automate AI), SEO & SEM, marketing automation, AI video generation, email marketing, lead nurturing, booking coordination, customer support, and more. They use AI tools and The Hive to handle work efficiently.

What are credit hours and how do they work?

Credit hours are time-based units used in our Flex plans (Flex20 and Flex40). Each task your sidekick works on uses credit hours from your monthly allocation. This model is ideal for startups or businesses with variable marketing needs who want flexibility without committing to dedicated part-time or full-time support.

What's the difference between Flex and Dedicated plans?

Flex plans (Flex20 at $997/mo, Flex40 at $1,249/mo) provide a set number of credit hours monthly. Dedicated plans provide a part-time ($1,997/mo) or full-time ($2,997/mo) sidekick who is consistently assigned to your account, allowing for deeper understanding of your brand and faster execution.

Do I work with the same person each time?

Yes, with Dedicated plans you work with the same Marketing Sidekick consistently. They become familiar with your brand, voice, and goals over time. For specialized tasks outside their expertise, they coordinate with The Hive behind the scenes while remaining your single point of contact.

What is "The Hive"?

The Hive is our collective network of marketing specialists with expertise across different disciplines. When your sidekick needs support on specialized tasks—like advanced SEO, custom graphic design, or video production—they tap into The Hive to deliver quality results without you having to manage multiple vendors.

How do I submit work requests to my sidekick?

You submit requests through the Automate AI platform, which is included with your plan. This keeps everything organized in one place—requests, assets, progress tracking, and communication. Your sidekick will acknowledge requests and provide estimated timelines.

How fast will my work be completed?

Our "Speed to Need" guarantee ensures fast turnaround on most requests. Timelines vary based on complexity—simple tasks may be same-day while larger projects take longer. Your sidekick will provide estimated completion times for each request, and we consistently outpace traditional agencies.

Can I change my plan if my needs change?

Absolutely. Our Flexibility Guarantee means you can upgrade, downgrade, or adjust your plan as your business needs evolve. Simply contact our team to discuss changes. There are no long-term contracts locking you in.

Do unused credit hours roll over?

Credit hours do not roll over month-to-month. Each billing cycle starts fresh with your plan's allocated hours. If you consistently find yourself with unused hours, we recommend discussing a plan adjustment. If you need more hours, you can upgrade your plan.

How It Works

What is the onboarding process like?

Onboarding follows 7 simple steps: Discovery Call → Customized Setup → Training & Onboarding → Customization & Integration → Launch & Optimization → Ongoing Support → Scaling & Growth. We work closely with you to configure the platform and align your sidekick with your business goals.

How does the request and delivery process work?

You submit requests through the Automate AI platform. Your sidekick reviews, provides an estimate, and begins work. You receive drafts for review, provide feedback, and approve final deliverables. Every project gets your sign-off before we move to the next task (Quality Guarantee).

What happens if I'm not satisfied with the work?

Our Satisfaction Guarantee means we'll revise work until it meets your expectations. You always approve final deliverables before we mark tasks complete. If there's an issue, communicate directly with your sidekick or contact our support team.

How do AI tools enhance the work?

AI tools improve speed, consistency, and efficiency across tasks. They help with content generation, video creation, automated responses, data analysis, and more. Your sidekick uses these tools strategically to deliver better results faster—without adding complexity for you.

Is there training available for the platform?

Yes! All plans include access to Automate Academy, which features video tutorials, knowledge base articles, and live webinars. Our support team also provides hands-on guidance during onboarding and ongoing assistance whenever you need help.

How do I communicate with my team?

Communication happens through the Automate AI platform, which centralizes all interactions. You can also reach support via live chat, email, or Zoom calls. Marketing Sidekick plans include direct communication with your assigned specialist.

What's the typical turnaround time for projects?

Turnaround varies by task complexity. Simple requests (social posts, minor edits) may be same-day. Medium projects (blog posts, email campaigns) typically take 2-5 business days. Larger projects (website builds, comprehensive campaigns) are scoped individually. Your sidekick provides estimates upfront.

Can I request rush delivery?

Yes, you can request priority handling for urgent needs. Communicate the urgency when submitting requests, and your sidekick will do their best to accommodate. For Flex plans, rush requests may use additional credit hours depending on complexity.

What if I need multiple services at once?

That's where The Hive shines. Your sidekick coordinates work across multiple disciplines simultaneously. Need SEO, content, and social media? Your sidekick manages the workflow, tapping into specialists as needed while remaining your single point of contact.
