How We Work

A consulting model built for Businesses.

STRATISIAN flips the traditional consulting model. We start with a structured diagnosis and strategy. You choose whether to execute with us on a 1% topline partnership or treat it as a one-time project.

Your risk is limited, and our incentives stay tied to your performance, not to hours billed.

Our Model

Strategy first. Shared upside later.

We believe businesses should not have to commit to large consulting retainers before seeing the quality and practicality of the thinking. Our model separates strategy creation from execution partnership.

Traditional model

Retainers and open-ended scope.

  • Large monthly retainers from the outset.
  • Scope creep and unclear ownership.
  • Hours-based billing that rewards more time, not better results.
STRATISIAN model

Strategy separated from execution.

  • Fixed, clearly defined diagnosis and strategy phase.
  • Transparent roadmap and commercial discussion after strategy.
  • Optional 1% topline partnership for execution duration.
  • Or fixed-fee, time-bound project if you prefer.

Outcome: You see the quality of thinking and the practicality of the plan before committing to a longer commercial relationship.

Process

From first call to structured execution.

Our process is designed to be clear, time-bound and respectful of business realities – minimal disruption, maximum clarity.

01

Discovery & Fit

A 30–45 minute conversation to understand your business, current challenges and ambitions. We also assess whether we are the right partner for your context. If not, we say so openly.

02

Diagnosis & Strategy Design

We analyse your markets, numbers, organisation and operations across the relevant pillars (Strategy, Operating Systems, Brand/Digital) and design a clear roadmap, often over a defined 3–6 week period.

03

Decision & Commercials

You review the strategy pack, ask questions and decide whether to proceed into execution with us. If you proceed, we agree on a 1% topline (or fixed-fee*) structure with clear scope and timelines, else we handover the strategy pack to you for a fixed fee and you undertake the execution.

04

Execution & Review

We work with your leadership and managers to implement the roadmap, track metrics and refine the approach with regular, structured reviews.

Engagement Clarity

What you can expect at each stage.

During diagnosis & strategy

  • Structured data and information requests.
  • Conversations with key stakeholders as needed.
  • Clear interim check-ins so you’re not “in the dark”.
  • A final strategy pack with roadmap, initiatives and metrics.

During execution

  • Joint prioritisation of initiatives and timelines.
  • Defined role for STRATISIAN vs your internal teams.
  • Regular review rhythm (weekly / fortnightly / monthly).
  • Documentation so improvements are institutionalised.

Our Methodology: Diagnose, Design, Deploy, Scale

STRATISIAN’s consulting methodology is designed to bring clarity and structure to MSMEs that are ready to scale. Founder-driven businesses often reach a point where growth becomes chaotic — the team expands faster than processes, information gets lost, and decisions take longer. Our approach solves this by breaking the journey into four stages: Diagnose, Design, Deploy, and Scale. Each stage ensures you understand the root challenges, build strong systems, and execute with discipline.

During Diagnose, we map your end-to-end operations, identify bottlenecks, understand team workflows, and evaluate how decisions are actually made. This gives leadership a clear picture of what’s working and what needs to change. In the Design phase, we convert insights into structures — defining roles, responsibilities, reporting lines, SOPs, processes, and decision rights. Our frameworks ensure your teams stop depending on memory and start operating through clear systems. The outcomes of this work align closely with the structures described in our consulting services.

The Deploy stage focuses on implementation and capability building. We help teams adopt new processes, track performance, and eliminate old habits that slow down growth. Most MSMEs struggle not because of strategy, but because execution breaks down. Our deployment support ensures the strategy actually becomes reality. Finally, in the Scale phase, we enable long-term growth by installing review mechanisms, dashboards, operational rhythms, and leadership routines. You can learn more about our philosophy and cross-market experience on the About STRATISIAN page.

Our methodology has been used by MSMEs across India, the UAE, and KSA to build structured companies that can grow without chaos. Whether you are expanding into new geographies, professionalising operations, or building a second-line leadership team, STRATISIAN provides a step-by-step system that simplifies the complexity of scaling a business.
