Strategy Session — 45 minutes, one real problem
A paid working session with Mehrdad: bring the single business problem that matters most right now, and leave with a ranked plan — plus a one-page strategy memo written for you within 24 hours.
This is for you if
- You are building or launching something and the next step is genuinely unclear
- You need a second pair of eyes on pricing, scope or go-to-market
- You want a concrete plan you can execute this month — not a motivational talk
Not a fit if
- You want the product built for you → that is the MVP Sprint, not a strategy call
- You expect guaranteed results — strategy reduces risk, it cannot remove it
How the 45 minutes work
One structure, tight timer — the same disciplined loop the MVP Sprint uses.

Request your session
Three short questions before we talk — answering them is half the preparation. Every request is read personally; you get a reply within 24 hours with the payment link and open time slots.
What you need is a build, not a plan?
Questions about the session
How is this different from the free 15-minute scope call?
The free call has one job: scoping an MVP Sprint — writing the one-page scope. The strategy session is the product itself: 45 minutes on your business problem and a written memo, with no sprint required.
What if my problem needs more than one session?
Then the memo says so honestly, with what a follow-up would cover and whether it is worth it. You are never pushed into a bigger engagement.
What happens after I send the request?
I reply within 24 hours with a payment link and available slots. The booking is confirmed once the $99 fee is paid.
Can I reschedule?
Yes — free up to 24 hours before the session. Inside 24 hours the session is due as booked.
Is the call recorded?
Only with your explicit permission, and only for your own use.
