Book your assessmentYou’re drowning in work that
shouldn’t need you.
You’ve bookmarked 47 AI tools. Watched the YouTube tutorials. But you’re still doing everything manually because you can’t figure out where to actually start.
10+ hours a week on admin
Emails, scheduling, invoicing, chasing, data entry. Tasks that should take minutes are eating your days.
Same tasks, every single week
Following up with leads. Formatting documents. Answering the same questions. Again. And again.
Overwhelmed by AI hype
Everyone’s talking about AI. Nobody’s telling you which tools actually matter for YOUR specific business.

Client result
Splendidly finished. The Account Management Team have had their minds blown. 197 reports done in 60 seconds - would have taken us 10 weeks manually. Genuine game changer.
The kind of result we publish.
Real clients, in their own words - the full story, what we found, and the measurable change in their week.
“You get to 3 o'clock and you think, how is it 3 o'clock? I still haven't done those four things I needed to do at 10.”
From AI to ROI in
three steps.
No courses. No jargon. No 10-hour onboarding. Just a clear roadmap built around your business.
HoursBack is run by David Bevan, who spent 20+ years in creative and marketing operations, mostly inside large organisations, before helping UK business owners find the hours hiding in their week.

ROI projections using your actual numbers
Hours saved and money recovered, calculated from your real billing model - not a generic formula. Honest ranges with stated assumptions.
Tick the list. Watch the hours add up.
Every recommendation in your report sits inside a working checklist. As you tick each item off, a bar at the top counts the hours a week you’ve reclaimed and tells you which one to do next, so the plan finishes itself instead of sitting in your downloads folder.
Items ticked.
Each recommendation is a checkbox. Tick when done.

A live counter shows hours a week reclaimed as you go.

HoursBack and TKM Consultants: a growth partnership
HoursBack and TKM Consultants have formalised a growth partnership. Two UK firms, same audience, different layers of the same challenge. Here is what it means and how it works.
Are you underpricing your own business by 20%?
Most UK service businesses are charging 15-25% less than they could without losing meaningful demand. Four signals you are one of them - and the maths on what a capped rate rise does to your annual revenue.
