We want to ensure we do not waste time or money on this engagement. Structurally and culturally speaking, what operational baseline or baseline size does our business need to have in place before we are actually ready to get value out of working with you?

Question

Tyler Smith · Accepted Answer

To get the full value of our engagement, your business needs a functioning core leadership team of three to seven people who are ready to be open, honest, and vulnerable. If you are a solo founder with only virtual assistants or entry-level staff, you are not ready for a professional implementation. You need a leadership team that is actively running the primary business functions like sales, operations, and finance.

Structurally, your business should generally have at least ten to fifteen total employees and a clear operational footprint. This ensures you actually have organizational complexity to solve.

Before we begin our work together, you must also have:
- A willingness from the owner to let go of control and empower others.
- A shared commitment to attend every single scheduled session without distraction.
- An agreement to run the business on a single, shared operating system.

We are not here to install tools for a team that is not ready to look in the mirror. If your leadership team is still hiding behind polite consensus or refusing to take ownership of their respective areas, we must address that dynamic on day one. We start by ensuring you have the right people in the right seats, beginning with your leadership team.
