One Conversation, No pitch.
I'll ask about your business, and you can ask me anything. If I can help, I'll show you exactly how. If not, you'll leave with guidance you can act on yourself, at no cost.
If there's a fit, the next step is a Landscape Review: a structured walk through all five areas of your business, with a documented picture of where growth is being lost and which bottleneck to fix first. The Landscape Review fee is applied in full toward your first month if we move forward together.
I spent eight years at LinkedIn and Adobe advising over 200 mid-market businesses on growth, through the lens of marketing, business development, and recruitment. The pattern was hard to miss. The companies that stalled rarely lacked talent or demand. They lacked a clear roadmap, were slow to adopt new technology, and were disconnected from their ideal customer. I started our advisory firm, Harper, to fix exactly that for owner-led businesses.
My rule is simple: we don't recommend anything we wouldn't do with my our business or our own money. Transparency is paramount, we will tell you when the right answer is to wait or to spend less. And if we can't help, we'll say so, and you'll leave with the same advice we'd follow if we were in your shoes.
We don't hand over a strategy deck and walk away. We build the websites, the customer acquisition systems, and the internal tools ourselves, using modern automation and AI so a small team can deliver what used to take a team of 10. Then we stay. We measure our approach and revise until you see the growth that you're looking for.
Where is your growth actually getting stuck?
Tell me what your business does and what growth looks like right now: where customers come from, what has stopped working, and what you think is holding you back. I'll tell you honestly whether I can help, and if I can, exactly where I'd start.
