How a SAUG engagement runs.
Six steps. Roughly six weeks from discovery call to 30-day check-in. No mystery, no scope creep.
Discovery call
A working conversation, not a sales call.
- We map your team, your stack, and your most painful workflow.
- We identify the highest-payoff place to start.
- You leave with a recommendation either way. If SAUG isn't the right fit, I'll tell you.
Written scope
You get a one-page scope before any work starts.
- Fixed price, fixed deliverables, signed before kickoff.
- Defines who's in the room, which tools we'll cover, what gets documented, and what success looks like.
- No retainers, no auto-renewals, no scope creep mid-engagement.
Pre-session intake
The training is built on YOUR work, not generic examples.
- You upload 3 to 5 real artifacts your team produces every week (emails, reports, spreadsheets, slide decks, customer notes).
- Brian reviews your stack so he can spec the Connectors before the session.
- Brian drafts the starting MD files and Skills around your team's roles.
Four hours, four phases. Live screen, live typing, live failures, live fixes.
Not “what is ChatGPT.” How LLMs work, where they fail, why your team's first attempts didn't stick, and what Connectors, Skills, and MD files unlock that prompting alone cannot.
Brian wires 2 to 3 Connectors into your tools and builds 3 to 5 Skills on your real artifacts in front of the team. Live screen, live typing, live failures, live fixes.
Every team member invokes the new Skills on their own work, with Brian floating between them. This is where it sticks.
We finalize the MD files that capture your business context, agree on what AI does and doesn't do at your company, and answer every question.
Documentation delivered
Your team owns everything before the week is out.
- MD files capturing your business context (yours to edit and grow)
- 2 to 3 working Connectors
- 3 to 5 named Skills your team can invoke by phrase
- Full session recording
- Short list of follow-up Connectors and Skills worth adding next
30-day check-in
Built into the engagement. No upsell, no extra cost.
- What's working, what isn't.
- Two or three quick fixes to the workflows.
- If ongoing support makes sense, we discuss the retainer. If it doesn't, we don't.
Six steps. Roughly six weeks. One paid engagement at a time.
No pitch, no obligation.
