Retained
Senior advisory, scoped to the business.
Operations, design intent, guest experience and development. Scoped to the constraint that is actually holding the business back, not to a fixed menu.
Design intent
Plans and spaces reviewed for how guests, staff, and service actually move. Good design gets photographed. Great design also works.
Experience
The guest or member journey from arrival to return, including programming, community, and standards.
Development
Two decades of relationships across hospitality, wellness, and development, opened when they move your business forward.
Weekly leadership session. Direct access between sessions. Monthly priorities. On-site scoped separately.
A 30-minute intro call, then a written scope within 48 hours. We start the following Monday.
One 60-minute session on your calendar. Between sessions, you message and get a reply within 24 hours.
Month to month, 30 days notice either side. No exit fee.
