What does Strategy & Consulting include?

Many growing businesses reach a point where a technology decision, a vendor contract or a pricing question needs outside judgement, but does not justify a full-time hire. Business strategy and consulting fills that gap with a fractional advisor who has built and bought systems before, brought in for a defined piece of work.

This service suits Nigerian founders deciding whether to build custom software or buy an off-the-shelf tool, non-technical founders who need a roadmap they can hand to developers, and small businesses in the UK, US and EU facing a vendor contract or pricing decision they want a second opinion on.

The engagement covers a technology audit, a build-versus-buy recommendation, a shortlist and comparison of vendors where relevant, a written roadmap, and a review of your pricing or packaging model. Findings are written down, not just discussed, so you can share them with your team or investors.

Oneshot Digital Hub works as a fractional partner rather than a consultant who disappears after a slide deck: one senior contact runs the engagement, agrees a fixed two-to-four-week scope in writing, and presents findings directly to your team so decisions can be made without further translation.

Questions about Strategy & Consulting

How much does business strategy and consulting cost?

Pricing depends on the scope agreed after a discovery call, and every engagement is confirmed in a written, fixed-price proposal. As a starting point, engagements begin from $1,000. Nigerian clients can pay in naira by bank transfer.

How long does an engagement take?

Most business strategy and consulting engagements take two to four weeks from discovery to a written roadmap, depending on how many vendors or systems are being reviewed.

What is a fractional CTO?

A fractional CTO is a senior technology advisor brought in for a defined piece of work, giving you experienced judgement on technology decisions without the cost of a full-time executive.

Do you help us choose a vendor?

Yes, where a vendor decision is part of the engagement, we shortlist and compare options on cost, fit and risk, and put the recommendation in writing.

Can you also build the roadmap you recommend?

That depends on what the roadmap calls for; where it points to a build, that work is scoped separately as its own fixed-price project.

Is this a one-off engagement or ongoing?

It is typically a one-off, structured engagement with a written output, though some clients bring us back for a specific decision as it comes up.
