Productised offer · Constraint Sprint
A 4-week diagnostic + execution sprint for industrial e‑commerce brands doing $2M–$20M. One blocker identified, one fix shipped, a 90‑day roadmap to compound the result.
What is a Constraint Sprint
Borrowed from Goldratt’s Theory of Constraints and adapted to a B2B e‑commerce stack. Every growth engine has a single dominant bottleneck. Pour effort into anything else and the bottleneck still caps the output.
The sprint is built for operators who don’t want a retainer yet. Four weeks. Fixed scope. You see the work before you commit to more.
A 200-item audit isn't a strategy. Every growth engine is bottlenecked by exactly one thing at a time. We find that one — and ignore the rest until it moves.
By Week 3 there is a live, in-store asset producing measurable lift. No PDF deck. No "phase 2 recommendations." The work lands inside your stack.
Four weeks. $12–24k depending on stack complexity. Refund if we can't isolate the constraint in Week 1. The terms don't move.
The 4-week schedule
Every week ends with an artifact you can hold — not a status deck. The point is that even if you cancel mid-sprint, you walk away with usable work product.
Week 1
Start here
Diagnostic across acquisition, conversion, retention. We pull GA4 / GSC / ad accounts, audit schema + content + funnel data, and isolate the single constraint with the largest revenue drag. Week-1 readout includes the constraint, the evidence, and the proposed fix.
You walk out with
One-page diagnostic + the constraint isolated
Week 2
A KPI dashboard built on top of your real data sources. Tracks the leading indicators tied to the constraint — not vanity. Reviewable weekly so you know whether the Week-3 fix is moving the needle.
You walk out with
Live scoreboard · 4–6 KPIs tied to the constraint
Week 3
A live, in-store implementation: a lifecycle email flow, a structured-data deployment, a GA4 funnel rebuild, or a paid campaign restructure — whichever matches the constraint. Shipped into your stack, not handed off as recommendations.
You walk out with
One asset live in your store · measurable lift
Week 4
A prioritized backlog with effort estimates and expected-lift scoring on every ticket. Sequenced as a 90-day execution plan. Your team can run it themselves, or roll into our retainer — your call.
You walk out with
Ticket Pack · 90-day execution roadmap
What you walk out with
Every deliverable transfers to you in editable, ownership-clean form. If we never speak again after Week 4, your team can keep executing.
Diagnostic
A written audit naming the single constraint, the evidence behind it, and the lift expected from fixing it. Not a 60-slide deck — a one-page document a CEO can read in 8 minutes.
1-page PDF · evidence appendix · loom walkthrough
Live dashboard
Wired to your real data — GA4, ad accounts, CRM, ESP. Tracks the 4–6 indicators tied to your constraint. Reviewable on your own without a strategist explaining it to you.
Looker Studio · refresh nightly · ownership transfers
In-store implementation
A lifecycle email flow, a structured-data deployment, a GA4 funnel rebuild, or a paid campaign restructure. Whichever matches the constraint we identified. Live in your stack by Week 3.
Production-ready · documented · your team can iterate
90-day execution plan
A prioritized backlog. Every ticket has an effort estimate, an expected-lift score, and a sequence number. Ready to drop into Linear / Asana / Jira / a Notion table.
CSV + Notion table · 25–40 tickets · sequenced
Week-1 guarantee
No constraint found, full refund.
If we can’t isolate a clear, evidence-backed constraint by the end of Week 1, we refund the full sprint fee. You keep every artifact produced — the scan, the scoreboard, the in-progress asset. No clawback. Never been invoked in 42 sprints.
Who this is for
The sprint earns its keep when there’s real revenue at stake and a real decision-maker on the other side. If either is missing, we’ll say so on the first call.

Constraint Sprint FAQ
The terms, the deliverables, the refund — the things buyers actually ask before they apply.
Four weeks of senior operator + execution time. The Revenue Leak Scan, a KPI scoreboard wired to your real data, one installed asset in your store, and the 90‑day Ticket Pack + Fix Order. Every artifact transfers to you in editable form.
The range covers stack complexity. A single-store Shopify build on the lower end; a multi-region headless or WooCommerce setup with 5,000+ SKUs at the upper.
Whichever asset matches the constraint we identify in Week 1: a lifecycle email flow, a structured-data deployment, a GA4 funnel rebuild, or a paid campaign restructure. We pick the asset with the largest expected revenue impact for your specific situation — not a menu item you chose ahead of time.
Most agency audits are slide decks — a list of findings and recommendations. The Constraint Sprint ships actual work inside your stack. By Week 3 there’s a live asset producing measurable lift, plus the diagnostic and 90‑day plan. You walk away with momentum, not a PDF.
Common. The sprint slots in alongside your existing setup as the strategic layer that connects the pieces. We frequently find the biggest constraint is coordination between agencies — and the fix is one shared scoreboard plus a written ticket order.
Three outcomes, all supported. About 60% of sprint clients roll into a retainer ($8–14k/month) for ongoing execution. Another 30% take the Ticket Pack to their in-house team and execute themselves. The remaining 10% pause and revisit in a quarter or two.
No clawback on artifacts in any case. The work is yours.
If we can’t isolate a clear, evidence-backed growth constraint by the end of Week 1, we refund the full sprint fee. You keep every deliverable already produced — the scan, the scoreboard, the in-progress asset. No clawback. Never been invoked in 42 sprints.
Strong fit: $2M–$20M annual revenue, plateaued or decelerating, running multiple agencies, decision-maker on the call. Industrial e‑commerce, MRO, hydraulics, contract manufacturing, technical distribution — any spec-driven category — is where the playbook earns out fastest.
Not a fit: under $1M ARR, pure-DTC fashion, looking for a quick-fix bandage. We’ll say so on the first call.
Yes — the Operator Retainer is $8–14k/month and fits brands that already know the structural problem and just want it fixed. If you’re unsure which engagement shape fits, fill in the form and mention it; we’ll suggest the right entry point.
