Q01 What is the difference between the audit and a retainer?

The audit is a 2-to-3-week diagnostic: a written assessment of what is working, what is failing, and a prioritized roadmap. No ongoing commitment.

A retainer is execution: I join your team, own the strategy, and run the function on an ongoing basis with a 6-month minimum. Most clients run the audit first and then decide if a retainer makes sense.

Q02 How is the work priced?

There is no published rate card. Pricing is calibrated to your operation's complexity, and after a 30-minute discovery call you get a fixed quote in writing within two business days. No hourly billing, no surprises.

Q03 How does the audit money-back guarantee work?

If by the end of the audit I haven't surfaced actionable insights worth changing how you operate, I refund the engagement in full. No clauses, no negotiation. The guarantee is in writing in your engagement letter.

Q04 What does the first 90 days of a retainer look like?

Days 1 to 30 are diagnostic, isolating the variables that slow you down. Days 31 to 60 are calibration, launching low-cost experiments against the highest-priority hypotheses. Days 61 to 90 are failure analysis and codification: doubling down on what worked, killing what didn't, and turning the winners into a repeatable engine your team can run.
