BEFORE WE BEGIN
Your questions.
A clearer decision.
What does market expansion involve beyond advertising?
It may involve validating demand, adapting positioning, assessing channels, preparing sales materials and planning delivery and economics. We define the decisions and workstreams relevant to the target market before choosing campaign activity.
Do we need every service in the program?
No. We start with the business priority and choose the workstreams required to move it. The proposal makes the dependencies, owners and deliverables clear without assuming every function is needed.
Is fractional leadership automatically included?
No. If executive leadership is needed, it is identified and priced separately from specialist execution and delivery coordination.
How are scope and investment agreed?
Your proposal confirms responsibilities, deliverables, capacity, term and investment. Additional leadership, third-party costs and changes to scope are identified separately before you commit.
