FAQCommon questions before we talk.
If yours isn’t here, ask directly.
How does pricing work?+
Engagements are billed monthly with no annual commitment. Investment depends on which engine (or both) and the volume of sourcing and content cadence we agree on. We send a quote after a 20-minute call once we understand your ICP, market, and goals.
How long until we go live?+
Most customers are live within 5 business days of signing. Onboarding covers wiki build, ICP definition, voice profiling, inbox warmup registration, and your first campaign drafted. Inboxes ramp over the first few weeks — first emails go out within days, full volume follows.
Do I need to write anything?+
No. We build your voice profile from your website, emails, and a short intake interview. Every email, post, and response sounds like you — you just review results in the dashboard.
What if I only want one engine?+
Both engines are available standalone. Most customers end up running both because the foundation work — wiki, ICP, voice profile — happens once either way and powers both engines.
How is this different from hiring an SDR or agency?+
A senior SDR runs $8,000–$12,000/month loaded and takes 3–6 months to ramp. They can't run email and LinkedIn simultaneously while researching new prospects every night. An agency delivers reports, not booked meetings. Channel Valve is fully managed, already running, and you're live in days.
Why is capacity limited?+
Every engine is installed by hand — wiki built from your actual business, sequences written for your ICP, voice calibrated to how you communicate. That takes real attention. We keep the number of new customers per quarter small so the work is never rushed.
