Bring me your problem: I’ll solve it for £15,000

If I don’t deliver the solution you need within 5-days, you pay nothing. If I do, my fee is £15,000.

This offer is for companies and people in the creative industries, with a serious marketing-related problem.

I’m not a consultant. I don’t sell time. I am a creative thinking expert. I only sell the solution.

This is the opposite of those well-known, snake oil providers out there who make their money on the 10% upfront fee, (to cover their time). I don’t accept a penny before or after the challenge, unless you receive the solution you need.

I don’t accept every problem. Only problems I know I can solve, fast. And I only accept them under strict terms.

How my service works

  1. Exclusion list
    Before anything starts, you send me a clear description of the problem and a list of every solution you’ve already tried or seriously considered. If what I later propose is on that list, you owe me nothing. I’m only paid for providing the solution.
  2. 5-days
    If I accept your challenge, I go away and work on it for up to 5-days. No workshops, no check-ins, no presentations. At the end of that period, I either return with a documented, actionable solution, or I tell you I couldn’t find one.
  3. Outcome
    If I provide a solution that directly addresses and solves the problem, and you agree it does, my £15,000 is due. If I don’t, you pay nothing. We simply end the engagement there.

There are no retainers, no day rates, and no upsells.

How to submit your challenge

To get things moving ASAP, simply provide me with the information below.

  1. What is your specific problem?
  2. What have you tried already?
  3. How soon do you need me to solve your problem?

Thank you for your response. ✨

I will get right back to you as soon as I can.

I will respond within 12-hours to either accept or decline the challenge. If I accept, it means I’m fully convinced I can find the solution. So, we can jump on a call to arrange things. The 5‑days begin, once we agree a start date. That’s it.
