Founder Advisory
Our lightest weight engagement, scoped to your needs.
Building a business can be overwhelming. There are a million things to get done, never enough hours in the day, and often not enough resources to hire the team you need. That's where we come in. We partner with founders to tackle challenges, make smarter decisions, and turn ideas into action. Part strategist, part operator, and fully in your corner, we bring the experience, extra bandwidth, and hands-on support to move your business forward—without the commitment of a full-time hire.
This is an ideal offering for a founder or solopreneur who would benefit from a sounding board and an extra set of hands, but is so early stage, they can’t hire someone yet.
How We Work
Built to map to the way you currently work, but
evolve you to your first “operating system”
A Weekly Check-in
We kick off with a weekly hour to talk through whatever is in front of you currently as we start to unpack where the business is and where we can get quick and simple wins.
Additional À La Carte
For anything we unpack, we can talk through how you’d solve it yourself, how we can support, or how we can resource it otherwise.
