# Startup Strategy Engagement

> A 4 to 6 week engagement for post-traction startups that turns growth potential into a prioritized roadmap, an execution plan with sequencing and ownership, and the operating rhythm to run it. $7,000 to $10,000.

**Startup strategy that your team can actually execute.** Turn growth potential into a plan with priorities, sequencing, and owners.

## What you get

- **Current-state map.** How the work actually happens today, not how the org chart says it does.
- **Customer and segment definition.** Who the company is really for.
- **Prioritized opportunities.** Ranked by leverage.
- **Phased roadmap.** Sequenced so each phase makes the next one possible.
- **Execution plan.** Ownership and sequencing, built to be run by your team.
- **Success measures.** How you will know it is working.

## Why founders choose it

- An action plan you can actually follow.
- Your whole team pulling the same direction.
- The right levers, in the right order.

## How it is different

- **From a consulting deck:** a deck tells you what to do. This engagement decides what to do, sequences it, assigns it, and sets up the rhythm to run it.
- **From hiring a fractional executive:** a fractional exec gets you someone in a function. This gets you the whole path forward, with clear ownership. You are not staffing a role.

## Timeline and pricing

4 to 6 weeks, depending on scope and how many people need to be involved. $7,000 to $10,000 USD. The sale is a discovery call, not a checkout.

The engagement is invoiced. Fees are set in USD, and international clients can be invoiced in their local currency (EUR via SEPA, GBP, and other major currencies), at the equivalent amount converted from the USD price.

## Do you need the Diagnostic first?

No. If you already know what the constraint is, start here. If you are not sure, the [Startup Diagnostic](https://emerginghumanity.com/explore-startup-diagnostic) finds it first, and part of that fee may apply toward this engagement.

## Who runs it

Christos Kritikos runs the engagement directly. You work with him, not with an account team.

## What happens after

Most teams execute the plan themselves. If you want someone to drive it, an [Execution engagement](https://emerginghumanity.com/explore-fractional-chief-product-officer-cpo) embeds him alongside the team to own the outcome.
