Why education, and why intake

Make it easier for families to get started.

Running an education business means balancing teaching, family questions, and enrollment. Same Hour connects the steps between an inquiry and a first paid session, so families can move forward while you focus on teaching.

Outside work, Colin builds learning software. Nihongo Study is a Japanese-study app he built and uses every day. It is a personal project that reflects his interest in learning and retention.

AI may help draft a message, but you approve the wording. The live workflows use agreed rules.

How we work

Five rules.

  1. Fixed prices and written scopes. You know what it costs before you commit.

  2. A baseline before any work. Your numbers are written down first, so the monthly page means something.

  3. Everything in your name. Accounts, tools, and sequences stay yours.

  4. Ordinary tools. Your scheduling tool, email, and text messaging, with a workflow tool connecting them.

  5. A personal reply within one business day. Colin replies personally.
