Note on the two paths Diagnostic is the recommended path because it produces a higher-quality call when the buyer does book. The synthesis gives Peter context before the call, which means the call can move faster and deeper. The "skip ahead" framing on the second card is honest about what it is — and protects against buyers who feel forced through a diagnostic when they'd rather just talk.

§ What happens next

If you take the diagnostic.

Tempo runs the diagnostic.

Ten questions over about five minutes. Conversational, not a form. Answer in whatever level of detail feels right.

You get the synthesis in the chat.

A tailored read of where your business is most likely leaking, what the patterns suggest, and what a fix would look like.

A longer version arrives by email.

Within a few minutes. From Peter directly. The full synthesis with industry context and specific quotes from your responses.

Optional: book a 25-minute conversation.

Walk through the synthesis with Peter, ask the questions Tempo couldn't, and figure out together whether Cadence is the right firm to help.

Who this isn't for.

Cadence Advisers works best with operators who have a real business — meaning recurring revenue, paying customers, and operational complexity beyond what spreadsheets can hold. We're probably not the right fit if:

You're pre-revenue or pre-launch (you need a different kind of help)
Your business runs under $750K in annual revenue (the engagement economics don't work yet)
You're shopping for a tool, not an operating system (we install systems, not point solutions)
You want someone to write a strategy deck and leave (we install the work; we stay until it runs)
You're locked into enterprise software that limits configuration (the fit gets technical)

If any of the above sounds like you, the diagnostic will surface it honestly and Tempo will say so — and the call invitation will be calibrated accordingly. Better for both of us to know early.

If you're not sure whether you're a fit, take the diagnostic anyway. It's the cheapest way to find out.

Note on the disqualifier section The "who this isn't for" block protects your time and signals confidence. Counter-intuitively, telling buyers who you're not for makes the right buyers more likely to engage — they trust the firm more because they see the firm has standards. The list is honest, not aspirational. Adjust the revenue floor if $750K isn't where the line actually sits.
