Estimated Annual Cost of Poor Follow-Through

£4,352 per employee
Value Recovered With Loopion
£32,637
10.9× estimated return
How This Adds Up
Loopion Business costs £2,988/year. That's an estimated 10.9× return.
How we calculate this: average salary ÷ 1,820 working hours = hourly rate. Meetings per week (1 hour average) × 48 working weeks × team size = annual meeting hours. We assume 30% of that time is lost to poor follow-through — industry research puts the share of ineffective meeting time higher — and, conservatively, that Loopion recovers 30% of the waste. Return = value recovered ÷ what you pay (Loopion Business at £249/month). These are estimates, not guarantees — your results depend on your team and how you run meetings.
How We Calculate This
Wasted meeting time
If 63% of action items from meetings are never completed, 63% of the time spent generating those actions is effectively wasted. We calculate total meeting hours × hourly rate × 63%.
Status-check meetings
Without action tracking from meetings, managers spend ~3 hours/week in follow-up meetings just to ask 'did you do it?' We estimate 1 manager per 6 team members.
Rework from dropped actions
Dropped actions lead to rework — estimated at 8% of total meeting investment. This covers duplicated decisions, re-done work, and missed handoffs.
Delayed project impact
Key projects delayed by missed follow-ups. We estimate ~15% of team capacity is affected by cascading delays from incomplete meeting actions.
Savings with Loopion
Pilot teams using Loopion's Accountability Loop saw completion rates jump from ~28% to 87%. We model a 57% reduction in accountability-related waste based on this improvement.
