Capture the enquiry
The enquiry is answered promptly and the problem, the organisation and the context are captured in the client’s own words.
Business consultancies
The scoping call
decides whether it was worth it.
A consultancy finds out whether an enquiry had a budget, a timeline and a decision-maker by spending an hour asking, and that hour is the product.

Who this is for
Where the capacity actually goes.
Management, strategy and specialist business consultancies where inbound enquiries are qualified by the people who deliver the work.
Scoping is done by the deliverer.
The consultant who should be on billable work is the one establishing whether there was any work to bill.
The enquiry with no decision-maker.
Three conversations in, it becomes clear the person asking cannot authorise anything, and the time is already spent.
Proposals built on a sentence.
A brief with no scope produces a proposal that guesses, and a guess is rewritten at least once.
The journey, step by step
One request.
Four moves.
One business consultancies journey, end to end. Your configuration decides the sequence, the rules and the point a person takes over.
Qualify against your criteria
Budget range, timeline and decision-maker are asked using the questions your firm uses, before any consultant time is committed.
Coordinate the scoping call
Where it qualifies, a call is offered against real availability and the consultant arrives with the brief already attached.
Follow up on what is open
Outstanding information and the second contact are scheduled and owned rather than left to whoever remembers.

Common questions
Questions business consultancies ask.
Will it quote for a piece of work?
No. Fees, scope and anything a client would rely on go to your consultants. The workforce captures what is needed for that conversation to be a short one.
Can we change the qualifying questions?
Yes. The criteria are yours and are configured during setup. They are the questions your own team would ask, asked consistently and every time.
