FAQ

Some questions you might be asking

How long do you take for the initial proposal?

If there are no queries on our part, you will receive the proposal within 3 working days.

Which payment methods do you accept?

We accept classical wire transfers or credit card payment via Stripe.

How can I cancel my advisory?

You can cancel your advisory at any time. Just let us know that you are dissatisfied with our work.

Do you offer any refunds?

We do not refund money for past or partial quarters. However, if you cancel within the Advisory period due to dissatisfaction, we will refund the costs for the following quarters.

How do I extend my advisory?

Before the end of the advisory period, we will send you an offer based on the active offer. If you accept it and make the payment, your Advisory will be extended.

How long is your response time?

Our self-imposed target is to answer 1 question per working day and per seat.

Do I get a refund if I don't ask any questions?

In some months there are no or few questions, in others there are significantly more. Therefore, we cannot offer a refund if you have not asked any questions for some time.

Do you also take on project enquiries?

If the enquiry fits into our subject area and our pipeline allows it, yes. In principle, advisory clients have a higher priority for us than non-advisory clients.

Do I always have the same contact person for my questions?

That depends on the specific question. If the questions always come from the same subject area, it will probably always be answered by the same person.

I want to book the advisory for one of our customer's project. What company selection do I have to use?

Relevant for the pricing is the project's sponsor. If your customer sponsors the project, his company sized or revenue is used as a base line.

Can I reprice your advisory as our own service to our end customer?

We do not offer the advisory as some sort of white-labeling. When one of your booked team seats contacts us, we are responding as our team - not your team.
