You hired them. Then you handed them to "Whoever".
Hiring is a one-time transaction. Workforce is the next three to five years. Most owners pour everything into hiring, collapse the day the tech starts, and watch a good hire walk in 6–18 months. The Workforce OS is the documented system that keeps them: 112 modules, 12 sections, 14 appendices of scorecards, coaching cadences, comp bands, and career paths.

A $2M shop with a broken workforce system bleeds $275K–$470K a year.
That's not theoretical. That's the math at scale — turnover, the ramp you never shortened, the owner hours absorbed into crisis, the complaints from techs you never finished training, and the one top performer who finally left.
Same techs. Same trucks. Different systems. A $2M shop running a working Workforce OS captures most of that back.
You don't have a hiring problem if your hires keep walking. You have a workforce problem. Hiring fills seats. Workforce keeps people in them, develops them, and builds the bench that means your company isn't always one departure away from crisis.
- Tech turnover (3–4/yr at $34K each)$100K–$140K
- Lost productivity during ramp (12-mo vs 6-mo)$60K–$120K
- Owner time absorbed in workforce crisis$40K–$80K
- Customer complaints from undertrained techs$15K–$30K
- Lost top performers (1/yr at $80K LTV impact)$60K–$100K
- Total annual workforce leak$275K–$470K
Real math at a $2M shop, from Workforce OS Module 2. Your numbers will differ — the 100-point diagnostic tells you where yours are bleeding.
When a tech struggles in his first 90 days, what actually happens?
In most shops it depends entirely on who notices first and what kind of mood they're in. That's not a system. That's a coin flip. You already have a workforce operating system — it's just running on tribal knowledge, on however your service manager handles things, on whatever you decided today versus last week.
Tribal knowledge has a ceiling. The service manager leaves and nobody knows how to coach Mike. You pass eight techs and nobody can hold it all in their head. You take a vacation and nothing works the same way.
This is you
- Techs quit six months after a strong hiring process
- Onboarding is "shadow Mike for a week," then nothing
- Your managers can't tell coaching from managing
- Performance issues get handled — or ignored — based on your mood
- Top techs leave because they don't see a future
- Every departure puts you back into crisis hiring
- You can't take two weeks off without the place wobbling
This isn't you
- You want inspirational leadership content — this is protocols, scorecards, and scripts
- You want a guaranteed retention number — nobody honest can promise that
- You want employment law advice — this flags risks and tells you what to ask counsel
- You want to fix retention without touching pay or your managers
- You want a refund window — all sales are final
Five numbers define workforce health. Most owners track none of them.
These are the lagging indicators. Coaching velocity, ride-along completion, and scorecard scores are the leading indicators that move them — and the OS installs both.
| KPI | What it measures | Healthy target |
|---|---|---|
| Retention rate | Techs retained over a rolling 12 months | 85%+ past 90 days |
| Average tenure | Average years with the company for current staff | 3+ years |
| Ramp time | Months from start to 90% of senior production | Under 9 months |
| Production per head | Annual revenue ÷ number of techs | $300K+ per tech |
| Bench depth | Internal candidates ready for the next-level role | 1+ per critical role |
112 modules. 12 sections. Nothing inspirational.
Every concept is paired with an execution tool. Every system is paired with a measurement. Every protocol comes with the script.
| Section | What it installs |
|---|---|
| I–II · Modules 1–12 | The workforce problem + the OS architecture. The leak math, the four pillars, the five KPIs, and how workforce connects to hiring and revenue. |
| III · Modules 13–22 | Day 31+ onboarding & ramp. The 11-month gap that kills more careers than anything else. Everyone builds a 30-day plan. Almost nobody builds Day 31 through Day 365. |
| IV · Modules 23–32 | Org structure & accountability. Build a team that runs without you in every decision. Org chart, role clarity, decision rights. |
| V · Modules 33–44 | Performance management. Scorecards, weekly cadence, review structure. Turns workforce from a feeling into a measurable system. |
| VI · Modules 45–54 | Coaching & development. The difference between coaching and managing, ride-along methodology, coaching scripts and cadence. |
| VII · Modules 55–64 | Culture & retention. Stay interviews, pulse surveys, flight-risk detection, resignation response, and the exit-data loop that fixes the leak instead of replacing the person. |
| VIII · Modules 65–72 | Communication systems. The operational nervous system — weekly leadership meeting, daily huddle, and the cadences that keep a growing company aligned. |
| IX · Modules 73–84 | Compensation & career pathing. Comp bands by role, pay structures that drive behavior, and the visible career path map that keeps top techs from leaving for "a future." |
| X · Modules 85–92 | Discipline, correction & termination. The protocols nobody wants to need — documentation standards, PIPs, and how to run a termination without creating exposure. |
| XI–XII · Modules 93–108 | Leadership development, succession & scaling. Building the next layer of leadership so the company outgrows the owner. What workforce looks like at $5M, $10M, and beyond. |
| XII-B · Modules 109–112 | Resilience add-ons. Pre-boarding, slow-season income protection, benefits benchmarking, exit-data loops. |
| XIII–XV | The 7-Day Workforce Sprint, the 90-Day Roadmap, and the 100-Point Diagnostic. |
| Appendices A–N | Production-ready assets. Performance scorecards, coaching notes template, weekly meeting agenda, PIP, exit interview, stay interview, comp band worksheet, org chart, career path map, SOP index. |
Most operators read business books and execute nothing.
The Sprint exists to prevent that. Run the entire thing in one calendar week. Don't skip days. Don't delegate the owner tasks. Imperfect execution is fine — missing days is not.
Diagnose & flag flight risks
Run the 100-point diagnostic. Score honestly. Then walk your roster and name your top 3 flight risks.
Retention conversations
Sit down with all three. Not a raise negotiation — a stay interview with a script, before the offer letter arrives.
Document the org chart
Who reports to whom, who decides what. If it isn't written, it isn't real — and nobody else can run it.
Close the Day 31+ gap
Write the ramp plan for the window everyone skips. Baseline your five workforce KPIs while you're at it.
First leadership meeting
Run the weekly cadence with a real agenda. Day 7 is the checkpoint — you either have a system or you have notes.
If the same departure reason shows up twice in one quarter, it is no longer a people problem — it is a system problem, and it gets a fix with a name and a date attached.
You walk away owning these.
- Tech performance scorecard
- Weekly leadership meeting agenda
- Ride-along and coaching notes template
- Review structure and cadence
- The five workforce KPIs, baselined
- Stay interview script
- Flight-risk early-warning checklist
- Resignation response protocol
- Exit interview template + data loop
- Day 31–365 ramp plan
- Org chart with decision rights
- Comp bands by role
- Visible career path map
- PIP and documentation standards
- Leadership development track
Keeping one tech pays for it 49 times over.
A single turnover event runs about $34,750 between recruiting, owner time, the empty seat, onboarding, and ramp. The Workforce OS is $697, once.

Workforce without revenue systems means you retain underperformers. If your techs stay but don't produce, Workforce alone won't fix the P&L.
Because this is digital intellectual property with immediate access, all sales are final and non-refundable. We don't sell you a maybe and we don't hide behind a refund window.
What we stand behind is installation. Complete the implementation steps, use the tools as directed, and submit proof of implementation within 30 days of purchase. If you qualify and you're still unclear on what to do next, Propel Alliance will help you identify the gap and give you a clear next action — clarification, implementation guidance, and a revised action plan.
Proof may include a workforce performance scorecard, a technician expectations document, a weekly meeting cadence, manager coaching notes, or a completed growth execution plan.
This guarantee does not promise employee retention, productivity improvement, team performance, revenue, profit, or any specific business outcome. Your results depend on your market, team, leadership, pricing, offer, compensation, follow-up, hiring discipline, management consistency, and execution. This implementation support guarantee does not create a right to a refund.
The questions you're actually asking.
I bought the Hiring OS. Do I need this too?
Hiring fills the seat. Workforce keeps someone in it. If your techs are walking at 6–18 months, hiring harder just refills a bucket with a hole in it — and you pay $34,750 every time. The two are cross-referenced by design: the 30-day onboarding in Hiring OS hands directly to the Day 31+ ramp in this one.
My service manager already handles the team.
Then he's running a system that exists only in his head. Section VI teaches him the difference between coaching and managing, Section V gives him the scorecard, and Section VIII gives him the cadence. If he leaves tomorrow, this is the only thing standing between you and starting over.
Is this legal advice on terminations?
No. Section X gives you the operational protocol — documentation standards, PIP structure, and how a termination should be run. Before you implement any disciplinary protocol, termination procedure, or comp change, consult employment counsel licensed in your state. A $300–$1,000 consultation routinely prevents five- and six-figure exposure. This OS gives you the framework; counsel gives you protection.
How fast does retention actually move?
Coaching cadence, scorecards, and the weekly leadership meeting are in place inside a week. Ramp time and flight-risk detection move in 60–90 days. Retention rate and average tenure are 6–12 month reads — they're lagging indicators by definition. Anyone promising you a retention number in 30 days is selling you something.
Why is there no refund?
Because you get the entire system the moment you buy. There's no way to un-give it to you. Instead of a refund window, we give you an implementation guarantee: do the work, show us, and if you're still stuck we get in and help you find the next move. We'd rather back the people who execute than subsidize the people who don't.
Your best tech is already talking to someone else.
You just haven't detected it yet. Day 1 of the Sprint is naming your top three flight risks. Day 2 is sitting down with them — before the offer letter, not after.
