Engagements

Scoped, priced, and published.

Four ways to work together, with real numbers attached. You should be able to tell whether this is a fit before you ever get on a call — that is the point of putting the ranges on the page.

The Ladder

Start small. Scale when it works.

Most consulting starts with a large bespoke engagement and a leap of faith. This is built the other way around: a small, fast, low-risk first yes that tells us both whether the bigger work is worth doing.

Tier 1 · Diagnostic

AI Readiness Audit

$2,500

2 weeks

A clear-eyed look at where AI actually fits in your operation — and where it does not.

  • Systems and workflow review
  • Team capability baseline
  • Prioritized roadmap with owners
  • 90-minute findings session

Tier 2 · Workshop

AI for Marketing Teams

$7,500

Half day + 30-day follow-up

Your team goes from AI-curious to AI-capable using your real campaigns, not sample prompts.

  • Half-day live workshop
  • Prompt library built on your work
  • Follow-up session at day 30
  • Recording and materials retained

Tier 3 · Engagement

AI Transformation

$15K – $45K

8 – 16 weeks

Strategy, deployment, and the training that makes it hold. I stay through adoption, not just handoff.

  • Full current-state assessment
  • Tooling selection and rollout
  • Custom L&D program
  • Measurement framework
  • Executive readout

Ongoing

Fractional Strategist

$4K – $8K / mo

Rolling, 3-month minimum

Senior digital and AI strategy without the full-time line item.

  • Standing weekly or biweekly cadence
  • Roadmap ownership
  • Team coaching and review
  • Async access between sessions

Ranges reflect scope, not negotiation. Everything is fixed-fee and scoped in writing before work begins — no hourly billing, no surprise change orders.

Capabilities

What sits inside the work.

01

AI Transformation Consulting

Hands-on strategy and deployment of AI across marketing, operations, and training. Built from a practitioner’s perspective, not a vendor’s pitch.

02

Corporate L&D Program Design

Learning programs engineered for behavior change, not certificates of participation. Needs analysis through delivery, assessment, and iteration.

03

Digital Marketing Strategy

Full-funnel strategy across SEO, SEM, content, social, and analytics — tracked, attributed, and accountable to a number you agreed to.

04

AI for Marketing Teams

Embedded workshops grounded in your live campaigns. The output is a team that ships differently on Monday, not a team that attended something.

05

High-Performance Web

WordPress and modern builds engineered for #LighthousePerfect scores across performance, accessibility, SEO, and best practices. Speed is strategy.

06

Keynote & Speaking

Research-backed talks on AI adoption, practical marketing strategy, and organizational learning. See the speaker kit →

How It Works

Three steps, no theater.

01

Twenty minutes

A short call to find out what is actually broken and whether I am the right person. If I am not, I will tell you who is.

02

A written scope

Fixed fee, defined deliverables, and the measurable change we are aiming at. You approve it before anything starts.

03

The work, then the handoff

I build it with your team rather than around them, so the capability stays after I leave. That is the whole job.

Questions

The ones everyone asks.

The audit and the workshop can usually start within two to three weeks. Larger transformation engagements are scheduled a quarter ahead because they need your people, not just my time.

Both. Workshops land better in a room, so I travel for those. Strategy work, reviews, and the fractional cadence run remotely with a standing meeting.

Start with the twenty-minute call. If the answer is the $2,500 audit, I will say so rather than sell you the $45,000 engagement — the audit exists precisely so nobody buys the big thing blind.

No. You get me. For build work that needs a production team, We Rock DM handles delivery and I stay accountable for the strategy and the outcome.

We agree on the measurable change before we start — adoption rate, cost per acquisition, time to publish, whatever the real metric is. If it does not move, we are not done.

Clients

What it is like to work with me.

Quotes from Austintatious Design engagements — the legal entity behind drb·dig. Same practice, rebranded.

Not sure which one you need?

That is what the twenty minutes is for. Bring the problem, not a brief — we will figure out the shape together.
