The model, in plain terms

An agreed fee.
A considered mix.

We can commit executive time before a company has the cash to pay the full fee. The work still has an agreed value, and the company remains responsible for that fee.

Discuss an engagement
Illustrative example only01 / FEE STRUCTURE

$100 agreed fee

$25 paid in cash
$75 settled in shares

This is a split of the fee value, not 75% ownership of the company. The valuation, number of shares, payment dates and responsibilities are agreed separately in writing.

Not a quote. Not a percentage of capital raised. Funding is not guaranteed.

What does your company need to do next?

Start with the decision in front of you. We can explore the scope of work from there.
