For High-Value Consulting Firms

Stop losing high-value projects to consultants who respond Friday evening

Friday 4 PM: High-value strategy RFP arrives. Your senior partner is in back-to-back meetings. Junior consultants lack authority to respond. Monday morning: Prospect already had scoping calls with two competitors who responded Friday night. You lost the deal in 68 hours of silence.

IT / Digital Transformation
Projects routinely stall. When clients need rescue fast, speed wins the deal.
Critical: First responder often wins

Are you leaving 6-figures on the table?

Most consulting firms lose 2-3 high-value engagements per quarter due to slow response times or lack of visibility. That is £200K–£500K (≈$254K–$635K) annually left on the table.

The Economic Logic

Why high-margin consulting firms say yes to AI automation

One Client = ROI

A single mid-sized engagement can cover months of service. A larger project can cover years. You only need to close one additional client to achieve positive ROI. The economic logic is straightforward.

One engagement = system paid for

Bench Cost Hurts

Your consultants are expensive daily resources. When they sit on the bench waiting for work, you burn cash. Even brief gaps add up quickly. Pipeline predictability protects margin.

Daily rate × bench days = direct margin loss

Margin Protection

You sell expertise and IP, not physical products. Your marginal delivery cost is low. Extra revenue from better pipeline falls almost entirely to profit.

80-90% of additional revenue = profit

The Simple Math

One mid-sized engagement covers months of service. One large project covers years. You only need to close one additional client to achieve positive ROI.

One client = ROI. Everything else is profit.

Not a good fit:

Generic business coaches, low-fee training workshops (£500–£1K (≈$635–$1.3K)/day), bodies-on-seats consultancies, social media freelancers. These firms typically think in linear day rates, not recurring value or high-stakes engagements. Our service is built for consulting firms with £10K+ / $13K+ projects and predictable pipeline needs.

Pipeline Predictability vs. Feast-or-Famine

Stop relying on referrals. Build a consistent, scalable pipeline.

Referral-Dependent Pipeline

Erratic revenue: Feast in Q2, famine in Q3

Cannot hire confidently: What if referrals dry up?

Bench time bleeds cash when pipeline gaps appear

Founders spend 15+ hours/week chasing leads manually

Revenue Pattern:
Unpredictable and stressful

AI-Driven Pipeline

Consistent deal flow: Predictable revenue every quarter

Hire confidently: Pipeline justifies adding consultants

Bench time minimized: Always have work queued up

AI works 24/7: Founders focus on delivery and strategy

Revenue Pattern:
Steady, scalable growth

The Scaling Problem

You want to hire associates, analysts, or additional consultants. But you will not pull the trigger until pipeline feels reliable. AI automation gives you that reliability. Predictable pipeline means you can scale headcount confidently.

Reliable pipeline → Confident hiring → Scalable growth

How many high-value projects did you lose last quarter to slow response?
