No pressure. No sales pitch. Just honest conversation about whether I can help.

Common Questions

How quickly can you start?

Assessments typically begin within 2 weeks of agreement. vCAIO engagements can start immediately after the first call.

Do you work with firms my size?

I focus on professional services and manufacturing firms $3M–$100M+ in revenue. That's the sweet spot for impact and feasibility.

What if we're not sure where to start?

That's exactly what the Assessment is for. It maps your operations, identifies bottlenecks, and builds a roadmap. Then we decide how to proceed.

Do you work with international firms?

Yes. I've worked with firms across 12+ countries. Timezone differences are easy to manage. The framework works everywhere.

How is this different from hiring an AI consulting firm?

I don't sell solutions. I sell clarity. I help you understand what's possible and realistic for YOUR firm, then partner with implementation partners to execute. I'm your trusted advisor, not a vendor.

What if we decide this isn't right for us?

No problem. After the call, if it's not a fit, I'll suggest alternatives or introduce you to someone better suited. Honest conversations sometimes lead to "no"—and that's fine.
