Consulting

Strategy Salon

The consulting arm of FoundersNotebook. Selective, high-trust engagements for founders building category-defining companies.

01

What It Is

Strategy Salon is not a traditional consulting practice. It's a selective advisory relationship for founders who are building something exceptional and want a thinking partner who can match their ambition.

I work with a small number of founders at any given time—typically 3-5 active engagements. This allows for the depth of relationship and quality of attention that meaningful strategic work requires.

Engagements are structured around your needs, not a predetermined framework. Some clients want a monthly strategic conversation. Others want intensive project-based work on positioning, pricing, or operational design. The format follows the problem.

02

Who It's For

Strategy Salon is designed for a specific type of founder:

  • You're building a company with the potential to define or reshape a category
  • You've achieved product-market fit and are now facing scaling challenges
  • You value strategic clarity over tactical busyness
  • You're willing to invest in getting the fundamentals right
  • You appreciate direct feedback and intellectual honesty
