## Your team

- **Reps who take calls** (starts at 10): People who run customer calls.
- **Calls per rep, each week** (starts at 15): Count only calls that need notes or a follow-up.
- **After-call work per call** (starts at 12min): Minutes on notes, the follow-up email and CRM updates. Time a few real calls.
- **Loaded cost per hour** (starts at $60): Salary, benefits and overhead divided by hours worked.
- **Working weeks in a year** (starts at 46): After holidays and leave.
- **Minutes you could cut per call** (starts at 5min): A target you set. The tool does not assume one.

## What after-call work costs

- Cost of after-call work a year
- Hours a year
- Hours a week, whole team
- Hours freed a year
- Value of those hours

## Example with the starting numbers

Your team spends 1,380 hours a year on after-call work, which costs $82,800. Cutting 5min from every call would free 575 hours and save $34,500 a year.

## How it works

### Enter five figures

Reps, calls per rep each week, minutes of after-call work per call, the loaded hourly cost and the working weeks in a year.

### Read the yearly cost

Hours per week, hours per year and the total cost of the time, all from your own figures. No industry averages are added.

### Test a smaller number

Set how many minutes per call you could cut and see what that is worth over a year.

## Who it is for

Sales managers, revenue operations leads and founders who want to put a number on the time reps spend after calls before they decide what to fix.

## Take the minutes off the list

This tool prices the work. Axelize saves the transcript to the account and drafts the follow-up after every call, so the writing is already done when the call ends.

## FAQ

### How much time do reps spend on admin after a call?

It varies by team and by how much the CRM asks for. The only reliable figure is your own: time five real calls from hang-up to the last CRM field, and use the average. This tool uses the number you enter and adds no benchmark of its own.

### What is loaded cost per hour?

Loaded cost is the full cost of an employee, including salary, benefits, taxes and tools, divided by the hours they work. It is higher than salary alone. Use a figure your finance team would recognise.

### How is the yearly cost calculated?

Reps times calls per week times minutes per call, divided by 60, gives weekly hours. Multiply by working weeks for yearly hours, then by the hourly cost. The saving uses the same steps with the minutes you could cut.

### Does the calculator say how much Axelize saves?

No. It prices the work you describe and shows what a cut you choose would be worth. How many minutes any tool saves on your calls is something to test on your own team.
