01 — HOW I START
No discovery phase. I start in week one.
You'll have a shared doc, a working plan, and momentum on the first deliverable inside of five business days. I don't bill for meetings about meetings.
Not just slide decks. I plan it. Then I do it.
I work with founders and operators who need someone senior enough to run ops, technical enough to build the tools, and fast enough to move this week — not next quarter.

The short version.
Most consulting engagements spend the first six weeks getting started. Mine don't. Three specific differences from how agencies and most consultants run this kind of work.
02 — HOW I COMMUNICATE
No account manager. You get me directly.
Email, Slack, whatever channel your team uses. I'm in your workspace, not behind a layer of coordinators. Same-day response during the work week.
03 — HOW I DELIVER
Most consultants present the work. I just do it.
You'll see real builds, real process, real results — not polished summaries of what I would do if you approved the next phase. Done beats described, every time.
Specific work. Real numbers.
I don't keep a case study library for the sake of it. Three recent engagements where the outcome is easy to describe and the numbers are honest. Each one was three to twelve weeks of focused work.
Surfaced an $80K deal hiding in plain sight.
A 50-person technology reseller was running sales out of five private spreadsheets. In one deliberate week, I aligned the team on a pipeline, configured Monday.com, and shipped a Next.js site with forms wired straight into the CRM. Clean data reclaimed 25+ reporting hours a week and surfaced one client across multiple reps as a single $80K+ package.
Shipped a full digital stack in 30 days.
A first-time candidate for the Michigan State House had no brand, no site, and no way to tell who was paying attention. In four weeks I ran voice and pillars, then built a custom stack on Vite, React, Node, and Express: 15+ pages plus volunteer, newsletter, and admin/analytics platforms — with a district-lookup tool that turned every use into in-district voter signal.
Cut 10,000+ labor hours from a 5G rollout.
A regional telecom operator was losing tower crews to software-update waste — long updates, random failures, full restarts. I instrumented the work in Asana so waste became a number, then stacked fixes: parallel updates, console-signature failure detection in the first five minutes, and finally staging modules off-tower so they arrived pre-configured.
The shape of the work.
A view of the impact across engagements, clients, and industries to date.
- Business revenue supported through digital systems, campaigns, and growth-focused execution
- $100M+
- Hours of time and operational effort reclaimed through smarter digital tools and automation
- 100K+
- Industries served through websites, marketing support, and strategic digital partnerships
- 10+
Without me
Six weeks of meetings before the first real deliverable.
That's the typical agency engagement. Discovery, scoping, SOW revisions, kickoff — by the time something gets built, you could have already launched.
With me
Working prototype in your hands by Friday.
I start in week one. If I can't give you something real to look at inside of five business days, I've over-scoped the work and we should talk about narrowing it.
Range is the point, not a compromise.
Most consultants specialize into a narrow slice. That works if you have the budget to hire four of them. For most founders and operators I work with, the better answer is one senior consultant who can cover the full spread — and knows when to bring in a specialist versus just get it done.
Operations & Project Management
Running the work that keeps you from running it. Weekly sprints, cross-team coordination, vendor management, the unglamorous stuff that makes everything else work.
Sales, Marketing & Admin
Pipelines, outreach, CRM setup, positioning, reporting, and the operational spine behind all of it. The "how do we actually run this" conversations most founders put off for too long.
Web, Tools & Systems
Internal tools, dashboards, billing systems, the scrappy v1 of a product feature, marketing sites that earn their keep. Usually the thing your team has on the backlog and won't get to for six months.
Media & Public Relations
Press outreach, brand storytelling, PR positioning, and the message discipline that gets a growing company noticed for the right reasons. Media kits, launch campaigns, and spokesperson prep for when the camera actually turns on.
We needed someone who could move quickly and fill the gaps we were missing, and not need six weeks to get started. That's Corey. He isn't like the other consultants we've worked with. His methods are fast and effective.
A note from me
Most consultants spend more time making presentations about the work than doing the work itself. I cut the bloat and execute on day one.
