Start an engagement

Two ways to begin.

Most operators who reach this page are early in figuring out whether Cadence is the right firm for them. Most start with the diagnostic — it's the lowest-friction way to find out. Some prefer to talk first. Both routes are below.

▸ Recommended · Start here

Take the Cadence Diagnostic.

⏱ 5 minutes ○ Free ◇ No call required

A structured conversation with our intake assistant. By the end, you'll have a written read on where your business is leaking, what those gaps are likely costing, and whether what we install matches what you need.

Conversational — not a 30-question form
Written synthesis emailed to you immediately
No pressure to book a call afterward
The same diagnostic we run with every engagement, free of charge

▸ Or, talk first

Book a conversation directly.

⏱ 25 minutes ○ Free 📅 On the calendar

If you'd rather talk through where you're at before doing anything else, book a 25-minute conversation with Peter. No prep required. Bring whatever's on your mind.

Direct call with Peter, no gatekeepers
Whatever shape your situation is — we'll work with it
By end of call, both of us know whether a next step makes sense

▸ What happens next

Whichever route you choose, here's the path forward.

No surprises. No high-pressure follow-up sequence. We move at the pace you set — and we tell you up front when Cadence isn't the right fit.

You start the diagnostic — or book the call.

If you took the diagnostic, the conversation runs with our intake assistant. Five minutes, in your browser, no call. If you booked, the calendar invite arrives instantly.

You get a written synthesis in chat.

For the diagnostic: a structured read on what we heard, where your business is out of rhythm, and what the patterns suggest. Lands in the chat window, ready to read or copy.

A longer version arrives in your email.

Within a few minutes, the same synthesis — slightly expanded, properly formatted, sent as a real email you can save, forward, or revisit when you have time. Yours to keep.

Optional: book a 25-minute conversation.

If the diagnostic resonated, book a call. We'll talk through what you read and whether a Cadence engagement makes sense. If it doesn't, we'll say so directly and point you somewhere it might. No follow-up sequence either way.
