Services
In 30 days, the three documents your funders keep asking for.
A case statement, a logic model, and a one-page funder pipeline. Built with you, finished and usable, in thirty days. Flat fee. If you do not walk away with all three finished and usable, you do not pay.
Ways we work together
Four engagements. One starting line.
Most founders start with the Sprint because it is bounded, fast, and guaranteed. From there, the door is open to a deeper partnership. The other three options below are how we keep working once we have proven the fit.
Recommended starting point
The 30-Day Funder-Ready Sprint.
One focused engagement. Three deliverables your funders, your board, and your team have been waiting on. Done in thirty days.
What you walk away with
A case for support
One document you can hand to any funder, board prospect, or partner without rewriting it.
A logic model and theory of change
A clear map from your activities to the outcomes you promise funders, written so the team uses it.
A one-page funder pipeline
Qualified prospects you can actually work, with stage and next action named for each one.
How it runs
- Week 1. Kickoff. We pull what already exists, name the gaps, and lock the working schedule.
- Week 2. Working sessions on the case for support and the logic model.
- Week 3. Working sessions on the funder pipeline and revisions on the first two.
- Week 4. Final delivery. All three documents finished and usable, in your hands.
Your time commitment is roughly 90 minutes a week.
Flat fee
$6,000
One engagement. Thirty days. No hourly meter.
The guarantee
If you do not walk away with all three documents finished and usable, you do not pay.
Your score brings us into the consultation at the right starting line.
Ongoing partnership
Monthly Fractional COO Retainer.
A seasoned operator inside the org for a fraction of the cost of a full-time hire. We build the operating system the org has been trying to assemble on the side: priorities, dashboards, hiring, accountability, and the weekly cadence that holds it all together.
This is the next step after the Sprint, or the right entry point for founders who already know they want ongoing operating support.
Investment
From $2,500 / month
Three-month minimum. Month to month after that. Scope is set in the free consultation.
What is included each month
10 strategic hours each month, scoped to the work that actually moves the org forward
Weekly CEO 1:1 to keep the founder out of the weeds and on the right three priorities
Biweekly working sessions with your leadership team to build the operating muscle, not just the plan
Async support between sessions for the decisions that cannot wait a week
Quarterly planning checkpoint to reset priorities, dashboards, and accountability
Who it is for
You are between $500K and $5M and the org has outgrown the way it was built
You are the bottleneck on hiring, fundraising, and program decisions at the same time
You want a seasoned operator inside the org, not another report telling you what to do
Add-on
Executive Coaching.
One focused hour a month, executive to executive. A standing space to pressure-test the decisions in front of you, prep for the next board meeting, and stay honest about what the next ninety days actually require.
For founders who do not need a full retainer yet but want a seasoned operator in their corner every month.
Pricing on request. We confirm the right fit in the free consultation.
A la carte
$300 per hour.
Targeted support when you do not need a full engagement. Document reviews, one-off strategy calls, funder-meeting prep, board memo cleanup, and the in-between work that needs an experienced second set of eyes.
Booked by the hour. Scoped in writing before we start.
What is not included
- · Bookkeeping or tax preparation
- · Day-to-day HR case management
- · After-hours fire drills
