Problem 01
Two engineers, three opinions, no decision.
The team is technically excellent and politically stuck. You need a senior outsider who can say the thing nobody internal can say.
→ We fix this in two sessions
Consulting
Decisions you can act on — by Friday.
Fractional CTO, product, growth and ops. We turn 'we should probably figure that out' into a one-page decision your team can ship against. No 80-slide decks. No 12-week discovery.

Built for growing businesses.
Small businesses, startups, and growing companies in Jamaica, the United States, Canada, and across the Caribbean.
02 · What we hear
Where teams get stuck.
The patterns we see most often when smart teams come to us frustrated.
Problem 02
Roadmap is a wishlist, not a plan.
12 priorities, all P0, all owned by 'the team'. Quarter ends and nothing big shipped. Again.
→ We fix this in one workshop
Problem 03
You're about to make a £200k mistake.
Big build, big hire, big platform switch, big agency contract. Get a second pair of senior eyes before you sign — costs you a day; saves you a quarter.
→ We fix this in a single call
02 · What's included
What's included.
Core deliverables scoped to your goals — not a vague retainer without outcomes.
- A written one-page decision
- Priority matrix that fits on a wall
- Tech due diligence
- Fractional CTO
- Strategy off-sites
03 · What you get
Deliverables. No fluff.
What lands in your shared drive at the end of every sprint, and what stays running between them.
A written one-page decision
Every engagement ends in a written doc. Context, options, recommendation, the cost of each, and a clear next step. No deck theatre.
Priority matrix that fits on a wall
Impact × effort, 14 items down to 4. Your team leaves a workshop knowing what they're doing on Monday — and what they're explicitly NOT doing.
Tech due diligence
Buy-side or pre-investment. Honest report on code, team, debt, risk.
Fractional CTO
1 day/week. Inside your team. Hiring, architecture, vendor selection, post-mortems.
Strategy off-sites
Two days, in person or remote. Walks out with a quarterly plan everyone signed off on.
03 · How we work
A short, opinionated process.
Four phases. No surprise scope-creep. You see every step happen in our shared workspace.
Phase 01
Listen
60-minute call with the founder + 1–2 keys. We come prepared. No questionnaire. No 'discovery month'.
Phase 02
Look
Two-day async dive. Code, data, roadmap, board notes, customer calls if you'll share them. We read everything before we open our mouth.
Phase 03
Workshop
Half-day session with the team that has to do the work. Decisions made in the room — not 'sent for review'. Recorded for those who couldn't make it.
Phase 04
Land
One-page decision doc + a 30-day check-in. We hold you to the things you said you'd do. Gentle, but we hold.

06 · Questions
Things people actually ask.
Picked from the first-call notes. If yours isn't here, write us and we'll add it.
Do you work with clients outside Jamaica?
Yes — we work remotely with clients across the United States, Canada, and the Caribbean. Most projects run over video calls, async updates, and a shared project workspace.
Will you do my deck for me?
No. We help you decide WHAT to put in the deck. If you need a designer, we'll introduce one.
Will you write code?
Occasionally — a proof-of-concept, an architecture spike, a one-pager for a customer. If the engagement is mostly code, that's a Web Development project, not consulting.
Do you sign NDAs?
Yes — and we'll send you ours if you don't have one. We've worked with public companies, regulated industries, and pre-launch startups. We know what 'confidential' means.
Are you a Big-4 alternative?
We're the opposite of Big-4. One senior person, one week, one written answer. We don't sell associates by the hour.
Industries you don't take?
Gambling, defence, adtech that's a thin wrapper over surveillance. Otherwise we look at the problem first, the industry second.
What about implementation?
If you want us to ship what we recommend, you can — every other Built by Leverage service is on the menu. But we won't recommend ourselves into the build; the decision doc stays neutral.
Start the conversation
Stop having the same meeting twice.
60-minute first call is free. If we can't add value in the first 15 minutes you'll know — and we'll tell you so.
