The problem isn't your rates. It's your margin.

Unbilled hours. Duplicate work. Broken processes. Scope creep. Underutilized staff. They are quietly eroding your profitability.

We deliver 10% better margins in 28 days, or you don't pay.


Done-for-You Workflows for Growing Businesses

10% better margins in 28 days. Or it's free.

The Margin Recovery Sprint is four weeks of hands-on implementation where we come in, find where your business is leaking margin, and fix it.

We audit your operations, rebuild the workflows, and hand you a business that runs tighter and more profitably. You start week one with a diagnosis and end week four with a better-running business. Or you don't pay.

How it works

We diagnose in week 1

  • We look closely at how your business runs: your workflows, tools, and handoffs.
  • We find where you're losing time and money. No generic checklist. We look at the real details of your business.
  • What you get: A clear map showing where your margin is leaking, and which fixes will help the most.

We implement in weeks 2 and 3

  • We fix the lowest hanging fruits first, then move to the biggest problems.
  • We build new workflows and set up better systems directly in your business. You get live working sessions with us each week, plus asynchronous work in between.
  • What you get: New workflows and systems, already working in your business, not just a list of ideas you have to build yourself.

We hand-off by end of week 4

  • We test everything we built to make sure it holds up.
  • We hand off new workflows and simple documents your team can actually use.
  • What you get: A clear before-and-after summary of what changed, plus a leaner, more profitable business. 10% better margins, or it's free.

Hi, I'm Fab

I'm a Senior Technical Product Manager at a multinational company — MBA-qualified, project management certified, and based in Toronto.

I began my career with a decade of hands-on experience in my family’s digital billboard manufacturing and distribution business.

My approach blends corporate expertise with a hands-on, practical approach developed during my time in the trenches of my family’s company.

I implement into growing businesses the same workflows I use to scale products, manage teams, and streamline operations to grow margins.
