Let's just talk.

The waiting list runs at two to four weeks. If the next application is the problem rather than the one after it, this is faster.

Eight questions, then I come back to you with a time. No charge, nothing to buy on the call, and no pitch if it turns out I'm not the right answer for you. I'll say so and tell you what is.

About the business

Bands, not exact figures. This is so the call starts at the useful bit instead of twenty minutes of me asking what you do.

Your name

Company

Phone

1 Annual turnover

2 What do you do?

3 Typical project value

4 How many jobs are live at once, typically?

5 Who handles the commercial side now?

6 What do you work to?

7 What is actually going wrong?

The more detail the better. This is what I read before the call, so the call can start at the useful bit rather than at the beginning.

8 When suits you best?

Your details are used to arrange the call and nothing else. Not sold, not shared, and you won't be added to anything you didn't ask for.

What the call is

Half an hour, phone or screen shareWhichever suits. If a screen share, have last month's application open and we'll look at the real thing.

I'll have read your answers firstSo it starts at your problem rather than at introductions.

You'll get something usable either wayEven if Pensum turns out to be wrong for you, you'll come off the call knowing something about your own position you didn't know going in.

Straight about what this isn't. It isn't a demo, because the thing being built isn't finished. It's a conversation with a QS about your payment month, and it doubles as me learning what to build.
