Buy strategy hours, an audit, or a half-day workshop for your team. We map the activation, your team builds it. Same playbook we use on full engagements, packaged for in-house teams that already have the people.
Pick the shape that matches your problem. We are not in the retainer-trap business. If you need three hours this month and zero next month, that is fine. If you need a workshop and nothing else, that is fine too. The packages exist so you don't have to invent a custom SOW every time you have a question.
A monthly block of advisory hours, drawn down as you need them. Bring a question, get an answer the same week. Spec-level review on a new campaign, a fresh pair of eyes on the pipeline, a second opinion on the vendor pitch. Roll-over capped at one month so the hours stay current.
A facilitated working session for your in-house team. Half-day for one function, full-day if cross-functional. Lands on a documented decision, not a deck. Common shapes: positioning workshop, funnel teardown, automation roadmap, GTM offsite. Flat-fee pricing per session, prep included.
A one-shot deliverable. We diagnose the problem you bring, talk to your team, review the artifacts, and write a tight brief your team can build against. Two to three weeks from scope to delivery. Includes a 60-minute walkthrough call so the brief lands the way it was written.
A named operator on your team one day a week or one day a month. Joins your standup, reviews work in flight, unblocks on the call, follows up async. Same person for the duration so context compounds. Six-month minimum so the seat actually pays off.
Consultancy and training cut across every layer. We don't sell strategy hours scoped to one slice of the stack, because the question your team brings is rarely siloed. A positioning workshop touches Marketing, Web, and Lead Gen. An automation roadmap touches Web, Lead Gen, and Automation. Embedded advisor seats touch whatever shows up in standup. Treat this as a wrapper around the layers, not as a fifth layer underneath them.
Strategy hours run weekly with no fixed end date. Workshops are one-shot, scoped in 30 minutes and delivered within two weeks of the intake call. Written briefs land in 2 to 3 weeks from scope. Embedded advisor seats run for six months minimum. Same four-step backbone across all shapes, different cadence.
Thirty-minute intake call. We lock the question your team needs answered, the artifacts we'll need access to, and the shape of the deliverable. You leave the call knowing exactly what you're buying.
We read the real material before the session: pipeline data, last quarter's campaigns, the actual funnel, the tools you bought, what your team has tried. No working from your one-paragraph brief alone. Diagnostic depth scales with engagement shape.
Live working session, on Zoom or on-site for full-day workshops. Your team in the room, our operator running it. We surface the answer with you, we don't email a verdict. Outputs are captured live so nothing gets lost to memory.
Written brief lands within 5 business days of the session. One follow-up call inside 30 days to check that the team is unblocked. If you want us to build what's in the brief, the consultancy fee credits forward into the build engagement.
Her team of four is good. The problem isn't headcount, it's clarity. The VP keeps asking for the strategy. Tools were bought last year and never adopted. The last agency burned them. Emily doesn't want another agency proposal. She wants an outside read before she commits Q3 budget, and she wants it from someone who has actually built the systems she's about to greenlight.
Emily books the Activation Audit on a Tuesday. By Friday she has a layer-by-layer read on her stack, with the two layers that actually need work flagged ahead of the four that don't.
Two weeks later she runs a half-day positioning workshop with her team and one operator from us in the room. Outputs are captured live. The team leaves with one tightened positioning statement and three campaign concepts, not a deck full of options.
After the workshop, Emily takes 8 hours a month of strategy retainer. Her team builds the campaigns. We review the work in flight, unblock the awkward decisions, and stay out of the way the rest of the time. The VP stops asking for the strategy because there is one.
