This quick, confidential assessment helps you determine if we are the right choice for you.
Grab a pen and jot down 1, 2 or 3 just like when we were kids and we wanted to know if we are a good match.
Section 1: Strategic Alignment & Complexity
- How would you describe your current market position?
- (1) We blend in and struggle to articulate our core value proposition.
- (2) We stand out occasionally, but our communication feels fragmented and effortful.
- (3) We are already a confident authority in our niche.
- How aligned is your internal leadership/team with the founder’s core vision and motivation?
- (1) Misalignment and friction cause consistent operational drag and confusion.
- (2) Moderately aligned, but execution often suffers from unclear priorities.
- (3) Fully aligned; the team owns the vision and operates with effortless clarity.
- Do you feel your current marketing/consultancy investment is focused on root problems or symptoms?
- (1) We mostly treat symptoms (e.g., ad spend, quick PR fixes).
- (2) We address a mix, but the core business problem remains unsolved.

- The Artistic Edge Acceleration Program (6-12 months) is a substantial investment designed to guarantee 2x-3x revenue and profit growth. Are you ready to invest in a strategic partnership starting in the higher five-figure to six-figure range?
- (1) No, that investment level is currently outside our consideration.

We recommend you solidify your investment capacity and internal readiness before engaging in a premium strategic partnership. Consult our guide The Price of Misalignment to start your self-diagnosis.

My collaboration with Andrada was like poetry! It was so much more than a collaboration—it transformed into a friendship. But not in a detrimental way to professionalism. She understood my business, my audience, and my clients. Her marketing advice was so professional and so extremely documented! It needs to be followed to a T. Thank you, Andrada!
