The four rooms Foundations

For a new business in its first year or two

Foundations

Set up properly, before habits set in.

£815The whole price, fixed, for one or two people. Prices include any VAT due.

What she sets up

Four floors, set up her way.

Each with a place, and room left over.

  1. The diary

    Booking rules, buffers and a week laid out, so meetings land where you want them.

    “Organising your appointments & managing your calendar”

  2. The inbox

    Folders, filters and ready replies, so the inbox is sorted on a Monday morning rather than in the evening.

  3. The paperwork

    One shared drive with a named place for everything: quotes, contracts, receipts and records, where your accountant can find them.

  4. The routines

    Your client database and enquiry stages, the follow-ups, the Monday plan and the Friday shutdown.

    “Setting up & maintaining your client database, following up on leads”

Who keeps what

Yours, hers, and never.

Stays in your hands
  • Every account, login and piece of data, in your name from the start.
  • The decisions: nothing is set up without your yes.
  • The tools you already use, kept where they work.
Hers to do
  • Set it up: a kick-off, then the set-up itself.
  • Run it with you until it works on a real week.
  • Hand it over, with written how-tos.
Never in the set-up
  • The books: your accountant keeps those.
  • Company formation and Companies House filings.
  • A registered office or mail address.

The whole price

£815

One fixed price for the whole set-up, for a business of one or two people.

Prices include any VAT due.

Included in £815
  • A kick-off hour, at her Power Hour rate.
  • The set-up itself: diary, inbox, paperwork and routines.
  • On-site days and remote work, as the set-up needs.
  • The handover, with written how-tos.
Extra, only if you choose
  • Your own software subscriptions, bought in your name.
  • Her monthly hours, to keep it running after the handover.
Where it runs
On-site days in person across Bath, Bristol and the surrounding area. The rest remotely, wherever you are.
Changing your mind
If you book as a consumer, you have 14 days to change your mind after booking. Work starts inside those 14 days only if you ask for it; if you then cancel, you make a proportionate payment for the work already done.

After the handover

To keep it running, her monthly hours.

The set-up comes first. If you want Laura to keep it running afterwards, these are her own monthly hours, in her own words.

  • ESSENTIAL PACKAGE 5 HOURS - £ 150 PER MONTH
  • PREMIUM PACKAGE 10 HOURS - £300 PER MONTH
  • EXECUTIVE PACKAGE 20 HOURS - £600 PER MONTH

Prices include any VAT due.

The studio once it is set up, its frosted sliding panel slid open on to the hall, and at the hall's far end the house's front door open on to warm light.
