Discovery call
30 minutes. No pitch. Two or three things you can action this month.
The discovery call is a working conversation, not a sales presentation. You describe the operational picture, James asks the questions that surface the pattern, and you leave with a clearer view of where the real bottleneck is.
0 to 5 mins
The shape of the business: revenue, channels, team, operational stack.
5 to 20 mins
The operational reality: where you're stuck, what you've already tried, what's costing you the most.
20 to 30 mins
The pattern: what James has seen elsewhere, the two or three actions that would move the needle, and whether a fractional engagement makes sense.
Where this engagement model works best
The model is not right for every business. The 30 minutes ends with a candid view either way, including when a different model would serve you better.
- Best fit: founder-led product, ecommerce or marketplace business, £1m to £20m turnover, operationally stretched, with a clear next-stage growth ambition.
- Possible fit: pre-£1m business with a clear growth trajectory and a specific operational project that needs senior thinking applied.
- Different model probably better: businesses that need short-term advisory only, or where the gap is strategic rather than operational. We will say so on the call and point you in the right direction.
