How it works
From a two-minute submission to a measured Practical Effect Report — here is the full path, honestly described.
1. You submit what could work better
Explain what's happening — by typing, speaking, or uploading evidence. No account required. Takes about two to five minutes.
2. We investigate
We review what you shared, plus relevant public information, and build a structured case pack. Not every submission results in a proposal — some need clarification, some are outside scope, some are referred elsewhere.
3. You receive our understanding — and possibly a proposal
If a practical intervention makes sense, an administrator prepares and personally publishes an implementation proposal: what we understand, the intended effect, recommended implementation, deliverables, assumptions, timeline, and price.
4. You approve only if it makes sense
Ask questions, request a revision, or decline — no pressure. Approving requires your typed legal name and confirmed authority. Nothing is charged until you approve.
5. You fund the agreed work
A deposit (50% by default) is collected through secure checkout. The proposal is only considered funded once payment is confirmed by Stripe — never just on redirect.
6. We implement, and establish a baseline
Before implementation completes, we record baseline metrics relevant to the engagement, so results can be compared honestly.
7. We measure at 30, 60, and 90 days
Each review compares current values against baseline, with your observations and ours. The 90-day review produces the Practical Effect Report.
