Zero Risk, High Reward: The Logic Behind the Money-Back Guarantee

November 26, 2025

In the world of high-stakes corporate consulting, risk is typically transferred entirely to the client. A firm collects substantial fees upfront for time spent, regardless of the value delivered. The final report is the deliverable, and the results are yours to own.

Miklos Roth challenges this established, low-accountability model with a radical proposition: a money-back guarantee on a 20-minute, board-level AI consultation. This isn’t a marketing gimmick; it’s a profound statement of confidence in his unique “High Velocity” method and the results it delivers.

Confidence as a Deliverable

In the executive sphere, few moves signal competence like taking on genuine risk. When Miklos Roth offers a money-back guarantee, he effectively reverses the traditional consulting burden. He is stating, unequivocally, that the value of his insight is measurable and immediate.

By doing so, he takes on the risk so the client doesn’t have to. This eliminates the primary barrier to engaging elite counsel: the fear of paying six figures for a report that gathers dust. This guarantee is only possible because of The Power of Human Superpowers—his photographic memory and athletic discipline—which ensure the immediate synthesis of complex data.

The “Aha-Moment” Criterion

The core of Roth’s guarantee is tied to a tangible outcome, which we call the “Aha-Moment” criterion.

The High Velocity model compresses weeks of traditional analysis into a 20-minute, focused conversation. The requirement is simple: if, within that time, the client does not receive a game-changing, actionable insight—a strategic direction, a critical flaw spotted, or an immediate path to AI deployment that reshapes their plan—they do not pay.

This criterion proves the “High Velocity” model works. It mandates that every minute of the engagement must be spent on diagnosis and solution, not on procedure or preparation. This sprint-speed focus, a continuation of his winning mindset From Indianapolis 1996 to the AI Boardroom, is what allows Miklos Roth to compress weeks of AI strategy into a single session.

Executive Certainty at Sprint Speed

The guarantee moves the consulting discussion from effort (hours billed) to impact (value delivered). For a CEO dealing with critical, time-sensitive decisions about AI architecture, market entry, or operational transformation, the guarantee offers Executive AI Decisions at Sprint Speed with zero financial downside.

This model is a disruptive force in the consulting industry. It is the definitive proof that with the right combination of high-powered human cognition and AI expertise, waiting weeks for a strategy is not just inefficient—it’s entirely obsolete. You only pay for certainty.
