Engagement Models

Scope, complexity, and company stage. A $15M SaaS company needing an operating cadence installed is a different engagement than a $90M PE portfolio company going through a carve-out. I size it during the diagnostic call so you know the investment before you commit.

A written audit covering product-market fit, sales funnel, unit economics, team structure, and operating cadence. You get the three biggest revenue gaps and a 90-day plan. Takes 1-2 weeks depending on data access.

3 to 12 months depending on the model. Week-by-week deliverables. I do not believe in open-ended retainers. You know what you are buying before we start.

A Big 4 firm sends a team, bills $500K-$2M, and delivers a strategy deck. I embed as an operator: I own the numbers, chair the meetings, and stay until the metrics move. The cost is 40-60% less. The accountability is higher.

Yes. In about half my engagements, I work alongside an existing product leader. I focus on the revenue-product connection and operating cadence. They focus on execution and team management. The collaboration typically accelerates both.

Monthly updates in a format boards trust: 5 metrics actual vs plan, wins with impact, misses with action plans, and next quarter priorities. I build the board deck or review your existing one. Boards lose trust when surprised. I make sure they are not.

Yes, if there is overlap in working hours and you have strong English fluency. Most of my work has been US-based, but I have done engagements with teams in India and the Philippines.

A consultant delivers a strategy deck and leaves. A fractional leader embeds inside your company, owns the KPIs, chairs the meetings, and stays until the metrics move. I run the operating cadence 2-3 days per week for 90-day sprints. The cost is 40-60% less than a full-time VP hire, and 60-80% less than a Big 4 engagement. The accountability is higher because I am measured on the same revenue outcomes as your team.
