The First Step


“I want the truth.”

Is all this really necessary?

Yes. Your responses will help us understand the context before our first conversation — so that the first 30 minutes we spend together are substantive, not introductory.

Complete the form. We’ll review your submission personally — no assistant, no coordinator — and respond within 48 hours. If there’s a fit, we schedule an introductory call. We sign an NDA before that call if sensitive materials will be discussed. The engagement begins only when both parties are ready.

What we commit to:

  • Your submission is read by both principals — no one else.

  • A response within 48 business hours, without exception.

  • An honest assessment of fit

  • An NDA before sensitive materials are shared.

  • A fixed-scope engagement with no surprise expansions.

  • Findings that reflect what we actually found.

  • No implementation.


Confidentiality note: We do not require an NDA to receive and review this form. However, no confidential materials should be shared until an NDA is signed. If sensitive materials need to be discussed on the introductory call, we’ll execute an NDA before that call takes place. Your submission is read by the two principals and no one else.
