Strategy Sprint

Unstick the strategy in two days.

Focused. In the room. Facilitated by Phil. You walk out with the decision made — not another workshop scheduled.

Outcomes

What a good sprint delivers.

Not a deck. A decision, alignment, and something you can execute.

One clear decision

You don't leave with options. You leave with the call — made, written down, and defensible.

Momentum, not paralysis

Two days replaces two months of internal debate. The team moves on Monday, not next quarter.

Artefacts the team can use

Positioning canvas, 90-day plan, decision memo. Nothing that sits in a folder.

Leadership alignment

Everyone in the room, every objection heard, one narrative walking out.

Pick your challenge

Every sprint is shaped by the problem in the room.

Select the challenge closest to yours to see a sample agenda, likely outcomes, and the artefacts you'd take away.

Outcomes

  • Positioning that survives contact with the market
  • GTM sequence with owners, dates and success metrics
  • First 90 days of content, channels and offers

Sample two-day agenda

  • Day 1 AM
    Category, wedge, and 'who this is not for'
  • Day 1 PM
    Message-market fit workshop with 3 audience cuts
  • Day 2 AM
    Channel selection + budget shape
  • Day 2 PM
    Launch calendar and success criteria

You walk away with

  • Positioning canvas
  • Message hierarchy
  • GTM roadmap
  • Launch dashboard spec

How the two days flow

Structured enough to move fast. Loose enough to follow the truth.

Pre-work
Intake call, data pack, leadership pre-read. Two weeks before Day 1.
Day 1
Diagnose. Get to the real problem, kill sacred cows, generate options.
Day 2
Decide. Choose the bet, build the plan, write the memo, cascade the message.
Two weeks after
Async Q&A, follow-up call, edits to the artefacts. Then handover.

Investment

One fixed price. Zero mystery.

From
POA

Priced by team size and challenge complexity. Fixed on the intake call.

Book intake call

"Two days with Phil replaced the six months of workshops we'd been circling. We shipped the new positioning the following week."

— CEO, DTC brand

Questions

Things people ask before booking.

Preferably in person — Sydney, Melbourne or Auckland by default. Remote (two half-days over Zoom) works when travel doesn't.

The people who can make the call: usually the CEO/founder, CMO, and one or two operators closest to the problem. Six people max keeps it decisive.

About four hours: an intake call, a data pack, and each attendee spending 30 minutes on a pre-read.

Fixed-scope engagement. Pricing shared on the intake call so it can be scoped to the actual challenge and team size.

Two weeks of async Q&A included. Longer support usually rolls into a Marketing Therapy retainer.

Book your sprint.

Grab a 20-minute intake slot. If it's a fit, we scope. If it's not, Phil will tell you who to call.
