FAQ / plain answers
Questions owners ask before the call.
Two doors, one short conversation at a time. Here is what the meeting is and is not.
Book the 15-minute callWho is a fit?
A private U.S. employer with 20+ full-time W-2s, with the owner, CFO, or office manager reachable.
Who is not a fit?
Under 20 full-time, 1099-heavy shops sold as W-2, or a public district or state campus until FICA status is known.
How is the 15 minutes spent?
We confirm the business, hear which door matters, and explain what the specialist would review next.
Do you force both doors on one call?
No. Choose energy, Payroll & Benefits, or neither. One door is enough.
Who should attend?
Whoever controls payroll, plus whoever pays the utility bill for an energy review.
What does the specialist actually do?
The specialist presents the relevant review and says what information would be needed to assess a next step.
What is the 90 Second Energy Audit?
The 90 Second Energy Audit is N2 LLC's free, no-obligation first read on a building's energy. You answer what you know and skip what you don't; N2 researches the rest and sends back a high-level read on where power is likely being wasted. It is a screen, not a survey: no site visit, paperwork, or obligation, and if the savings case is not there, they say so and nothing moves.
Do you install equipment?
No. Bouldin I/O sets the meeting. Energy, when it proceeds, is delivered through N2 LLC.
Do you administer a plan or run payroll?
No. Benefits reviews go to an independent administrator. We do not run payroll codes.
What is the CPA's role?
Your CPA is the gate. They receive the tax results and help you decide what to do.
What happens after the call, and how fast?
If there is a fit, the specialist explains the next information needed. Timing depends on the review and your team.
The fit
Know before you book.
Fit is: private US employer with 20+ full-time W-2s (sweet spot under 200), where we can reach whoever controls payroll — owner, CFO, or office manager — on a building that still treats utilities as the bill. Not a fit: under 20 full-time, 1099-heavy shops sold as W-2, or a public district or state campus until FICA status is known.
