One quarter, embedded. I assess the business, find the upside, and build it. One person, diagnosis through delivery.
Assessment and execution, one engagement. Defined scope, real end date.
I go wide: revenue, systems, data, operations, and the handoffs between them. The upside surfaces, including what the day-to-day buried.
CRM architecture, reporting, internal tools, integrations. Built, not recommended.
It runs without me. Documentation, training, and a map of what's next.
Every assessment ends the same way: what I'll deliver in scope, what's worth extending for, and where outside help earns its cost. You decide.
Share your challenges or ambitions. I'll tell you honestly if I can help.
Too strategic for a contractor, too hands-on for a consultant. That's the gap I fill.
Pipeline, forecasting, board-grade reporting. Built from zero through a live public listing.
Normalized data, downstream integrations, systems that finally talk. Three builds from scratch.
Six transactions end to end across the US, Canada, and the UK. Brand, IT, and systems, unified.
Working software, shipped: bid models, proposal engines, calculators, live in operations. Not slideware.
Strategy and execution used to require different people. AI collapsed that. I use it to do more for one client, not to take on five. One business at a time, at a pace that used to take a team.
One senior operator who diagnoses and delivers, for less than the two-vendor path.
Up to five interviews with your key people. A cohesive strategy roadmap within 72 hours of the last one. Yours to run with, with me or without me.
