In-Person Consultation
Strategic Planning & Direction
In-person consultation with Chad Austin, Inc. is intended for organizations looking for focused, strategic guidance—not informal exploratory meetings or preliminary vendor discussions.
Effective strategy is not created in real time. It requires context, preparation, and a clear understanding of your business before meaningful recommendations can be made. Our consultation process is structured to ensure discussions are informed, relevant, and productive.
Why Preparation Matters
Bringing a consultant into a meeting without context often limits the value of the conversation. Without time to review your goals, challenges, and existing materials, discussions tend to remain high-level and theoretical.
Our in-person consultations are designed to avoid that. By gathering information in advance, we’re able to come prepared with thoughtful questions, informed perspectives, and strategic insight—rather than improvised opinions. This approach leads to clearer direction and better outcomes.
When an In-Person Consultation Makes Sense
An in-person consultation is appropriate when you’re ready to have a substantive conversation about direction and priorities. Common scenarios include:
- Aligning digital strategy with business objectives
- Evaluating the need for a website redesign or platform rebuild
- Exploring online sales, lead generation, or service delivery
- Narrowing options and establishing a clear path forward
These sessions are most effective when decision-makers are present and prepared to engage in focused discussion.
What to Expect
Consultations are paid, time-bound working sessions centered on understanding your current position and identifying high-level strategic direction. They are intentionally scoped to provide clarity without delivering tactical implementation plans.
You can expect:
- A prepared, informed discussion tailored to your organization
- Strategic insight grounded in experience and context
- Clear conceptual next steps
- An honest assessment of whether Chad Austin, Inc. is the right fit for execution
When appropriate, consultation fees may be applied toward future project work at our discretion.
A Deliberate, Professional Approach
This process ensures that both parties enter the conversation prepared and aligned. It protects the integrity of the work, respects everyone’s time, and results in more meaningful outcomes.
If you’re seeking clarity through informed, intentional discussion—rather than on-the-spot brainstorming—an in-person consultation is the appropriate starting point.
