When it fits

Signs the structure is lagging behind the work.

  1. 01

    Busy but thin margins

    Projects keep coming in, yet profit doesn't follow.

  2. 02

    Founder bottleneck

    Nearly every decision and approval still goes through you.

  3. 03

    Absorbed scope creep

    Extra rounds are given away to protect the relationship.

  4. 04

    Stalled handovers

    Contracts are signed, then production inherits the problems.

What you receive

Concrete outputs, not a slide deck.

  1. 01

    Friction map

    Your journey from enquiry to delivery, with every leak marked.

  2. 02

    Margin read-out

    Where time and money disappear across recent projects.

  3. 03

    Priority order

    The one or two constraints to rebuild first, and why.

  4. 04

    Build recommendation

    A scoped proposal if a Backbone Build makes sense. No obligation.

How it runs

Two weeks, four steps.

  1. 01

    Intake

    A short questionnaire and access to a few recent proposals and project files.

  2. 02

    Conversations

    Focused sessions with the founder, producers and key team members.

  3. 03

    Analysis

    Mapping pricing, scope, capacity and decision flow against real projects.

    Review session

    Findings walked through together, with clear next steps.
