How it works
How a project works
Five steps from the first call to a system your team runs on. You know what you're paying for before you pay for it.
A 30-minute call
You walk me through how the work gets done today. I ask a lot of questions, and I tell you honestly whether I can help.
- What you get
- An honest read on whether software would help, and what I'd look at first.
- Your part
- 30 minutes on a video call.
- Cost
- Free.
- Next
- If it looks like a fit, I ask for your files.
I learn your process
You send me the spreadsheets, forms and documents your team uses. I map how the work actually flows and find the steps that cost the most time.
- What you get
- A plain written summary of your process as I understand it, and what I'd build first.
- Your part
- Share your files and answer my questions, mostly by email.
- Cost
- Free.
- Next
- If we're a good fit, the first version.
A working first version
For businesses that are a good fit and ready to invest, I build a working version of your core process before you pay anything. It's a proof that I understand your business, not the finished product.
- What you get
- Something you can click through, built around your kind of data.
- Your part
- A walkthrough call and honest feedback.
- Cost
- Free.
- Next
- A written proposal with milestones and prices.
Build
We agree on fixed-price milestones or a monthly rate. Each week you get an update and a link to try what's new. You sign off each feature when it does what your business needs.
- What you get
- Working software at every milestone.
- Your part
- A decision-maker available each week to review and sign off.
- Cost
- Agreed in writing before the work starts.
- Next
- Launch.
Launch and support
I move your existing data across, train your team, and stay on to support the system once it's live.
- What you get
- A system your team runs on, and someone to call when something needs attention.
- Your part
- Time for your team to learn it.
- Cost
- Support terms are part of the agreement.
- Next
- Improvements, when you're ready for them.
How we'll stay in touch
You'll hear from me every week. I prefer writing things down over long meetings, so you'll always have a record of what was decided.
I work US Eastern business hours, 9 to 5, Monday to Friday. If I'm ever out, my project manager covers and you'll know in advance.
