AUM-Cycled Lead Acquisition Engine

A $100,000 monthly retainer from the AUM to Day-Law — Month 1 seeds MVA volume, Month 2+ opens third-party lead flow, and Month 1 principal recycles indefinitely through Case Cash.

01The Engine · $100K/mo Retainer → Two Lead-Acquisition Lanes

The AUM Ops-Feeder inside the CC Kick-Off engine pays a $100,000 monthly retainer into Day-Law as pure lead-acquisition capital. The first tranche seeds MVA volume; every subsequent tranche funds third-party retention. Because the Month 1 principal is recycled monthly through Greg E. / Case Cash against fresh case collateral, from Month 2 onward the firm deploys $200,000 of working capital every month against a $100,000 recurring retainer draw — the principal never grows, but the throughput does.

02The Cadence · What Each Month Buys

MVA Lane · Month 1 Seed, Recycled Thereafter$100,000 pinned principal

  • Month 1 deployment. The first retainer tranche buys 40 MVA case leads at ~$2,500 per case, filling Day-Law’s in-house pipeline.
  • Month 2 onward. Principal recycles through Greg E. / Case Cash against the prior cohort as fresh collateral — the same $100K funds 40 fresh MVA cases every month.
  • Firm economics. ~$25K face × 33% in-house contingency = ~$8,250 firm net per case.
  • Cash timing. MVA settlements land on a 6–24 month lag; the recycle mechanic keeps throughput flat during the lag.
  • Steady state. 40 MVA / mo · 480 cases / yr sourced.

Third-Party Lane · Month 2+ Fresh Retainer$100,000 / mo new capital

  • Month 2 onward. Each month’s fresh retainer draw buys 5 third-party case leads at $20,000 per case.
  • Sourcing split. Consortium originates the lead; an external trial firm processes on a 50 / 50 contingency split.
  • Consortium economics. ~$1M face × 33% trial-firm contingency × 50% Consortium share = ~$165,000 Consortium net per case.
  • Cash timing. Third-party settlements land on an 18–36 month lag; the retainer stream keeps monthly sourcing flat.
  • Steady state. 5 3rd-party / mo · 55 cases / yr sourced (Months 2–12) · 60 / yr fully-armed.
Recycle Optionality · Greg E. / Case Cash · equivalent case-funding facilities The Month 1 MVA principal is never re-raised. Consortium collateralizes each prior MVA cohort’s case-tape face value, receives principal back plus the funder’s spread on a secured note, and redeploys the same $100,000 against a fresh 40-case batch the following month. The AUM retainer flows uninterrupted alongside this recycle — net effect: from Month 2 onward, Consortium is running $200,000 of working capital in tandem against a $100,000 monthly draw. Same principal, new collateral, compounding case-tape upside retained by Consortium.

MVA · Day-Law in-house$100K principal · Month 1 seed · recycled monthly via Case Cash ~$25,000 33% contingency (in-house) ~$8,250 40 / mo ~$330,000 / mo~$3.96M / yr sourced

Consortium Law · combined steady-state — MVA + 3rd-party + V1 SaaS — — ~$1,215,000 / mo~$14.58M / yr steady state

Steady-state assumes Month 2+ cadence (40 MVA recycled + 5 third-party fresh) held constant across 12 months. Year-1 partial ramp adjusts to ~$13.84M net (MVA active all 12 months = $3.96M; third-party lane active Months 2–12 = 11 × $825K = $9.075M; plus V1 SaaS partial ~$0.8M). MVA cash lands 6–24 months post-source; third-party cash lands 18–36 months post-source; recycle mechanic keeps sourcing throughput flat during settlement lag. MVA firm-net-per-case ~$8,250 reflects Joe direct 2026-07-23 recut (face-value $25K × 33% in-house contingency); prior versions had $16,500 (face $50K). Numbers are Joe-supplied operating economics for the Consortium-Law vertical — not third-party diligenced at this iteration.
