Question 7

What are the seven stages?

Accepted Answer

Prepare: research the client before the first meeting. Discover: capture how the business really runs. Diagnose: score eight areas from 1 to 5 against evidence and sector benchmarks. Prioritise: rank opportunities by impact and effort. Justify: build the business case with every figure labelled by source. Propose: produce a client-ready proposal. Review: measure results and loop back to Prioritise.

Question 8

What does the AI do, and what do I do?

Accepted Answer

The AI drafts: research briefs, question sets, scoring suggestions, business case workings and document drafts. You decide. Nothing reaches a client without a consultant reviewing and approving it.

Question 9

What is the Client Audit?

Accepted Answer

A structured way to see how a client's business really works. It runs in two modes: a consultant-led audit on site, walking the client through real scenarios, and a short self-audit prospective clients can complete on your website so they arrive with a first view already formed.

Question 10

What do my clients receive?

Accepted Answer

Polished, branded documents written to be kept: the audit findings, the prioritised plan, the business case and the proposal, followed by review reports that show what changed.

Question 11

What do I need to use it?

Accepted Answer

A modern web browser on a laptop or desktop. StagewiseConsult is web-based, with nothing to install. Client-facing pages work on phones as well.

Question 12

Who can see my client data?

Accepted Answer

Your client data is kept separate per consultant. Other partners cannot see your clients or your engagements.

Question 13

How are figures in a business case handled?

Accepted Answer

Every number is labelled by source, so you and your client can see whether it came from the client, from a benchmark or from an assumption you made.

Accepted Answer
