Each offer has a fixed scope and a fixed price. Most clients start with a session; about half go on to one of the longer three.

1.

Strategy session

€450

A red and white lighthouse on an empty beach

Ninety minutes with a partner on one question you keep putting off: a price change, a first manager, a market to leave. You get a one-page plan by nine the next morning.

Format
In our office or on video
Length
90 minutes, plus the written plan
Suits
Founders with one decision that is holding up the rest

2.

Operations setup

€9,000

A red rock mountain over a grey plain

Six weeks to give a company that has doubled in size the roles, meetings and weekly numbers it now needs. We interview the team, write the plan with you, and set it up alongside the people who will run it.

Format
Two days a week on site, the rest on calls
Length
6 weeks, with a check-in after 60 days
Suits
Teams of 30 to 120 where the founder still answers every question

3.

Growth partnership

€6,500 a month

White clouds low over a dark blue sea

A partner joins your leadership meeting each week for three months while you open a market, raise a round or hire a layer of managers. We take on the work that falls between your roles and hand it back by the end.

Format
One day a week with your leadership team
Length
3 months, extended month by month
Suits
Companies in a year of change with no chief of staff

4.

Advice on retainer

€1,800 a month

A red sun low over a calm grey sea

A partner you can call before a senior hire, a contract or a board meeting. Two hours of calls a month and replies to email within a working day.

Format
Calls and email, no fixed meetings
Length
Monthly, cancelled with 30 days’ notice
Suits
Founders who have worked with us before, or want a second opinion on call

How a project runs, week by week

  1. 1.

    Listen

    In the first week we talk to six to ten people across the company, one at a time, and read the numbers you already keep.

  2. 2.

    Decide

    In the second we bring back one page: what we heard, what to change first, and what to leave alone. You sign it off or send it back.

  3. 3.

    Set up

    Then we build it with the people who will run it: role descriptions, a meeting calendar, a weekly report that fits on a screen.

  4. 4.

    Hand over

    We leave on the agreed date and come back after 60 days for a morning, to see what held and fix what didn’t.

Fees and terms

Prices are before 20% VAT. Anything not here, ask on the call.

How do we pay?

A session is paid when you book it. A setup is paid half at the start and half at the end. Monthly work is invoiced on the first of each month, payable in 14 days.

Is there a minimum term?

Only the partnership, which runs for three months. The retainer can be cancelled at any time with thirty days’ notice.

Who pays for travel?

Within Vienna, we do. Elsewhere we bill trains and flights at cost and tell you the amount before we book.

Will you sign our NDA?

Yes. If you don’t have one, we send ours with the proposal, so nobody has to draft one.

Does a session count toward a project?

Yes. If you start a setup or a partnership within 60 days, the €450 comes off the first invoice.

Not sure which fits? Start with the free call.

Thirty minutes with Clara or one of the partners. We tell you which offer fits, or that none does.
