Consulting Methods

Choose the engagement model that fits your timeline.

Four ways Dr. Spotz plugs into your proposal process, from a single red-team read to a full team member role.

Overview

The engagement shape matters as much as the service.

Different proposals call for different consulting shapes. A late-stage draft that needs a hard critique is very different from an early-stage decision about which opportunity to pursue. These four consulting methods describe how Dr. Spotz typically engages with clients, and any service can be delivered through more than one of them.
