Why Our Approach Is Different
Most consultants operate under a "suitability" standard. We choose the fiduciary standard instead.
Traditional Consulting
- ×Advice just needs to be "suitable" for your needs
- ×Can exclusively promote their own services
- ×May have undisclosed financial incentives
- ×Consultant's interests can come first
Our Fiduciary Approach
- ✓Legally bound to put YOUR interests first
- ✓Fixed-fee structure with transparent pricing
- ✓Complete disclosure of any potential conflicts
- ✓Choose solutions from the entire market
The Bottom Line
We're your advocate, not a consultant trying to sell you something. Fixed fees mean we focus on your success, not our commission.
How We Work
Fixed-Fee Structure
We charge a transparent, fixed fee—not percentages or commissions. This means we have no financial incentive to recommend one solution over another.
Best-in-Class Partners
We bring in specialists for execution at their actual rates—no markups, no hidden fees. You get the best people at fair prices.
Complete Transparency
Full disclosure of relationships, costs, and potential conflicts. We even pay market rates when we need those same specialists ourselves.
Why Rough & Ready?
We combine real-world strategy with hands-on execution—and we're legally bound to put your interests first.
Experienced Team
From nonprofits to startups, we've led transformations across sectors with a track record of measurable results.
Focused on Outcomes
Every engagement is designed around results you can measure and feel. No fluff, no templates—just what works.
Built for Your Context
No one-size-fits-all solutions. Only strategies tailored to your specific model, mission, and market reality.
