Step One of Discovery

The Brief.

Before we get on a call, we ask you to articulate what's at stake. This is the form Discovery starts with.

Five sections. About four minutes. Every answer makes our first conversation sharper.

01
You
02
Event
03
Outcome
04
Reality
05
Last Things

Section 01 · Who you are

Tell us who's writing.

The basics. We'll know who's reading this brief and how to reach you.

Section 02 · The event

What you're producing.

The basics about the event itself. Don't worry if some details aren't locked yet.

Section 03 · The outcome

The one that matters.

If we get one question right, it's this one. Take a minute. There's no wrong answer, but vague ones tell us a lot.

When your guests leave this event, what do you want them saying to each other?
Not the marketing version. The real version. The thing they'd text their friend on the way home.
Section 04 · The reality

The honest stuff.

This is where vendors typically fish for fluff. We need the opposite. Real numbers, real context, no performance.

Section 05 · Last things

Almost there.

Two short questions and we're done. The "anything else" field is where most of the good stuff ends up.

Brief Received

Got it. Reading now.

We review every brief personally within one business day. If it reads like a fit, we'll respond to schedule a 20-minute call.

If we're not the right partner for what you're building, we'll tell you that too — and where else to look.
