Monthly Advisory Retainer
The systems are installed. This is how they compound.
The Monthly Advisory Retainer keeps the operating rhythm alive after your Engagement ends: one dedicated remote delivery day a week, a fractional operator holding the standard, and a quarterly review that proves the value or ends the arrangement cleanly.

The value promise.
Quarterly value review
Every quarter we review whether the retainer is delivering £50,000+ in compounding value, and we share the scorecard with you. If it isn't, we renegotiate scope or end cleanly. You are never locked in by anything except the results.
How it works commercially.
Term
Month-to-month, 30-day cancellation notice, no cancellation fees
Annual pre-pay
Optional: £150,000 for 12 months (17% saving, rate locked)
Capacity
Maximum 5 retainer clients at any one time
Entry
Primary entry: graduates of the Operator Engagement. Occasionally direct for referred £5M–£20M founders.
Graduation.
Clients outgrowing the retainer is the goal, not a risk to us. When you're ready to hire an internal operations director, we support the hire, run a 90-day transition, and step back to an on-call advisory arrangement. Our best referrals come from clients who no longer need us.
Proof.
Before working with Emre, we were stuck doing residential work and couldn't break through. He built us a system to know which jobs to go after and which to avoid, got us onto council frameworks, and helped us win two tenders bigger than anything we'd done before. Completely different business now.
Paul Bartlett, Director, Elephant Eco Electrical
Since Emre and his team began the planning process I knew they were different to other companies out there. There was clear direction and implementation which meant results came in a lot faster than I anticipated.
Mark Husselbee, MD, Fenchurch Contracts
Great people, excellent services, all promises delivered on time. I cannot recommend enough.
