The Lean Startup
You’re funded. You’ve got that first big cash infusion, and this is your moment to scale up. But with all that growth has come a few headaches: maybe you don’t have a lot of your processes written down, you’re struggling to hire as quickly as gaps are arising, or administrative overhead is now taking away from the critical work of building your groundbreaking idea.
That’s where we come in: we give you a plan for how to grow based on where you’re at.
The Lean Startup package includes:
An assessment of your small/growing organization with general recommendations for what needs to happen next.
Tailored advice on improving 1-2 critical functions such as performance management, engagement, job definitions, etc.
It’s perfect for:
Small, early stage startups gaining traction that don’t have a lot formalized just yet, but now need a little bit of extra help.
Organizations within 1-4 months of first or second round funding, or those experiencing rapid growth at any stage.
It costs:
Starting at $5,000 with additional customization available, tailored to your needs.
Growth Phase
You’re growing. Your product or service has hit the market, you’re about to raise (or just raised) your next round, or the business is now becoming bigger than you imagined with sudden growth. But now, you’ve had to step back and think about the everything else part! How do we forecast what roles we’ll need to hire for? Is a People department needed? What does more formal structure and career pathing look like? If you’ve asked any of these questions, Growth Phase is perfect for you.
We focus on tailoring a growth plan to your specific industry and trajectory, clarifying priorities and ensuring a great employee experience.
The Growth Phase package includes:
A detailed organizational diagnostic that assesses your whole organization and its existing processes.
A tailored, holistic plan for how to grow your organization sustainably in conjunction with your business goals.
It’s perfect for:
Nonprofits, later stage funded startups, and organizations with revenues under $1 million.
If you’re not in a period of growth and want an outside assessment on where gaps may exist.
It costs:
Starting at $10,000 with additional customization available, tailored to your needs.
Process Audit
You’re improving. Your organization may be newer or more established. It’s undergoing a period of change, or is preparing for one. You want to tidy things up and improve one major process, function, or department.
We help you take a focused look at this one area, examining your existing structures and collaborating with you to make improvements in line with your vision.
The Process Audit package includes:
An outside perspective and deep dive into one area or behavior of your organization.
An assessment to show where gaps exist, with a report giving you a concrete plan of action for improvement.
It’s perfect for:
Organizations of any size looking to make targeted improvements.
For example: onboarding processes, handbook or policy improvements, performance management systems, compensation structures, etc.
It costs:
Starting at $2,500 dependent upon size of organization, tailored to your needs.
