Thirty minutes with the person who'd run the project.
Not a sales call. Not a discovery form. A conversation with the founder about where your business is losing time, what could be fixed, and what it would take.
Some of those calls end with a project. Plenty end with a suggestion you can act on yourself. Both are fine.
Four questions.
The work that repeats. The calls that get missed. The admin that waits until evening.
Tools you bought and stopped using. What went wrong, and why.
Not everything needs solving at once. Usually one thing has to move before the rest can.
Honest scope, honest timelines. Including when the answer is "don't do this yet."
You'll leave with something either way.
A written summary of what we discussed, sent within a day. What we'd recommend, in what order, and roughly what each part involves.
If you want us to build it, that's the starting point. If you don't, it's yours to take anywhere.
Come with a problem, not a brief.
You don't need to know what you want built. Most people don't. You need to know what isn't working.
Bring that, and we'll work out the rest on the call.
