Service formats
Three ways to work with us
Defined formats with defined outcomes, not an open-ended invitation to pick our brain.
01
Diagnostic session
A focused 60-minute session for a clearly defined problem: a rate you have been offered, a route that is not working, a decision you need to make this week.
60 minutes · video call · preparation questions in advance
02
Business or contract review
A structured review of a proposed contract, operational model or growth decision, with a written assessment of viability, risks and recommendations.
Structured review · written output · follow-up session
03
Ongoing advisory
Regular support for businesses that need experienced external challenge and guidance, with a standing session and access between sessions.
Monthly cadence · agreed scope · priority access
Advisory sessions are scoped according to the nature and complexity of the issue. Every booking begins with a request; scope, timing and fee are confirmed before anything is charged.
How booking works
A short diagnostic before every session
The diagnostic form matters. It means session time is spent on your problem, not on reconstructing basic context.
