Business Model Exploration

Starting something new and understand the idea, but not how the business or operations will work? This three-hour work session with your team will help bring focus to how the business will work. We’ll use tools like the business model canvas or value proposition design to prioritize, talk through options and get on the same page.

  • Starting something new: New business? Prototype? Pop-up? Considering launching a new department or product?

    Getting on the same page: Your team needs to decide key aspects of the business together

    A Growing Team: Consider different ways to work together. Are you expanding your small, nimble team and need to figure out how to make it work?

  • Before: We’ll meet once to talk through what your team needs. We’ll provide an info pack for your team with prep work to get us on the same page before the workshop starts.

    During: A three-hour workshop where we lead your team of 1-10 people through the tools needed so you’re headed towards where you want to be.

    After: We’ll synthesize what was accomplished in the session and give tangible next steps, action items, and considerations for moving forward.

  • The three-hour workshop includes all prep, facilitation, and a post-workshop synthesis summary for $4,800.

Storytelling Strategy

Have a report or presentation coming up and need help articulating what you want to say? This two-part sprint will define your key messages, flow, and storytelling tactics.

  • You've been working on your content for awhile and need a fresh perspective.

    You need help organizing your insights and ideas to clearly communicate them to new audiences.

  • This is a two-part sprint that takes place over one week.

    Before: You collect and share a pre-read for us to review.

    During: In session one we unpack all of your content and ideas to identify key messages. Between sessions, M&C will draft an outline. In session two, we will refine the outline and identify storytelling tactics to bring key messages to life.

    After: You get a Storytelling Plan documenting your outline, key messages, and storytelling tactics.

  • The Storytelling Strategy sprint is $5,000 for a two-part sprint over one week.

Value Proposition Testing

Wondering how your concept might be received in the real world? This six-week user research sprint will help you assess if and how your idea creates true value for customers.

  • You want to test if the benefits of your idea resonate with your potential customers.

    You want to make sure your idea is solving a real need before you start building it out.

  • A six-week user research sprint run by M&C. We will develop and manage the interview protocol, participant recruitment, interview facilitation, qualitative data collection and synthesis of 12 user interviews.

    At the end, you receive an Insights Report summarizing key user insights and problem-solution fit analysis for your concept.

  • This six-week value proposition sprint with 12 user interviews is $25,000, including user recruitment. We recruit using a third-party recruitment platform.
