Three ways to work together.

No six-month engagements. No staff-augmentation contracts. Productized work scoped to a defined deliverable. Pick what fits and I start.

If I cannot save you time on the first call, I will not waste your second.

Pick the shape that matches the problem.

01For foundations funding their portfolio

Cohort

Foundation-funded capacity building for grantees. A small cohort format with a shared skill library, and everyone keeps access after the cohort closes.

  • Thirty days from kickoff to results
  • Hands-on builds inside the tools each team already uses
  • Priced per organization, funded by the foundation
02One specific problem to solve

1:1 consulting

Hourly or monthly retainer. Right when you have one specific problem to solve and want a second set of hands on it for four to eight weeks.

  • Hourly or monthly retainer
  • Most engagements run four to eight weeks
  • Pricing shared on the first call so you can plan
03A working system, not a deck

Custom build

Fixed-price builds for teams that want a working system, not a deck. The platform is chosen to fit your existing stack, not the other way around: Claude, ChatGPT and Codex, Microsoft Copilot Studio, Salesforce, Google Gemini, or your internal tools.

  • Scoped per project, fixed price
  • Built on your existing stack
  • Fixed timeline, defined deliverable

Predictable beats across all three.

Each shape follows the same arc: agree the scope, do the work, hand off something the team can keep running. Below is what that looks like week by week.

Cohort

Thirty days. Small cohort. Foundation-funded.

  1. 1
    Kickoff

    Set goals per organization. Map each team to its real workflow. Decide what wins in 30 days.

  2. 2
    Build

    Hands-on sessions building grant drafts, prospect research, donor communications, and daily briefings inside the tools each team already uses.

  3. 3
    Mid-cohort demos

    Each org shows what they made. Accountability partners pair up. Skill builds target the gaps that surfaced.

  4. 4
    Skill builds

    Custom policy work for the tools in play. Data and compliance review. Open lab sessions to unblock anyone stuck.

  5. 5
    Close

    Take-home dashboards. Documented assistants ready to keep running. A standing invite back for follow-up calls.

1:1 consulting

Four to eight weeks. Weekly working sessions. Hourly or monthly retainer.

  1. 1
    Fit call

    Free 30-minute call to confirm scope, name the deliverable, and pick a start week.

  2. 2
    Build

    Weekly working sessions, hands-on inside your existing tools. Engagements typically run four to eight weeks.

  3. 3
    Handoff

    Documented workflow your team owns. Standing invite back for follow-up calls.

Custom build

Fixed price. Fixed timeline. Built on your existing stack.

  1. 1
    Scoping

    One-hour scoping call to map your stack, name the deliverable, and lock the fixed price.

  2. 2
    Build

    Native build inside the stack you already pay for. Weekly check-ins. No rip-and-replace.

  3. 3
    Handoff and training

    Working system delivered. Training and reference guides so the team owns it after the engagement closes.

Three shapes, three pricing models.

Cohort

Foundation-funded

Priced per organization, funded by the foundation supporting the portfolio. Talk to me about bringing this to your grantees.

1:1 consulting

Hourly or monthly retainer

Pricing shared on the first call so you can plan. Most engagements run four to eight weeks.

Custom build

Scoped per project

Fixed price after a one-hour scoping call. Ranges shared on that call so you can plan.

Productized by design.

Scoping to a defined deliverable forces clarity. You know what you are buying and when it ships. The practice stays focused on outcomes, not racked-up hours.

If you need a firm to camp inside your organization for a quarter, this is probably not the right fit, and you will hear that on the first call.

If I cannot save you time on the first call, I will not waste your second.
