Scoping call

Forty minutes, no cost.

Every engagement starts here. Two of us join, you tell us what you are worried about, and we tell you whether we are the right people. If we are not, we will say so on the call and point you at someone who is.

What happens

On the call

  • Two operators, not a salesperson. The people who would do the work.

  • Nothing technical until an NDA is signed. We can send ours or work from yours.

  • A rough shape and a rough number before we hang up, or an honest no.

What to bring

Two things: a sentence on what would hurt most if it were reachable, and whoever can say yes to the scope. Everything else can be worked out on the call. There is more on this in how to scope an engagement.

kiln@intake:~$ new-engagement

Rough estate size, sector, and anything that has already gone wrong.

Encrypted in transit. We keep intake notes for ninety days, then delete them.

Before you write

Three things worth knowing.

These are the questions we are asked on almost every first call, so they are answered here instead.
