How an engagement runs
Fixed scope. Written deliverable. No retainer games.
01
Intro call
30 minutes, free. We pressure-test whether the engagement is worth your money. If not, I tell you.
02
Fixed scope
Written scope, deliverables, and exit criteria agreed up front. No open-ended retainers, no scope creep.
03
The work
I do the thinking - diagrams, trade-offs, the numbers underneath. Your team stays in the loop, not in the dark.
04
Handoff
A written deliverable your team can act on without me in the room. Follow-up call included.
Honest boundaries
What I won't do.
Saying no to the wrong work is how the right work gets done well. If you need any of these, I'm happy to point you to someone who's a better fit.
✕ Body-shop staffing or team augmentation
✕ Pure dev work or coding sprints
✕ On-site full-time - remote-first only
✕ SEO / marketing-tech consulting
✕ Hostile-stakeholder or regulator turnarounds
Think it might be a fit?
Send a short note about your system and where it hurts. If it's not something I can help with, I'll tell you - and point you somewhere better.
