Tell me what's on your plate.

A real reply from me, usually within a business day. If your situation isn't a fit for what I do, I'll say so — and try to point you at someone better.

Three doors

Pick the one that sounds closest.

Each route opens a slightly different conversation. Don't overthink it — you can also just email me directly and we'll figure out the shape.

Intake

A real form. No spam, no auto-reply.

Five fields. Anything you write here lands in my inbox and I read it personally. The route radio above just lets me prepare the right way.

Step 01 · same day

I read your message

Personally. Usually within a few hours during business days, not next quarter.

Step 02 · 1 business day

You get a real reply

From me, with first-take questions. If I'm at a workshop, by end of next business day.

Step 03 · within a week

Twenty-minute call

If we both want one. No pitch, no deck. We talk through whether this is a fit.

Step 04 · if it fits

One-page proposal

Scope, timing, cost, what's out of scope. Always written. Always before the contract.

Skip the form

If a form feels like overkill, it probably is.

Email is fine. So is LinkedIn. Whatever's lowest-friction for you.

jordan@groundedai.help

Goes to my inbox. I reply personally — no assistant filter, no shared mailbox. Usually a same-day acknowledgment.

linkedin.com/company/grounded-ai-help

Connect or DM. I check it daily. Public posts when I have something worth posting; I don't post for the algorithm.

Direct call

Calendar · 15 minutes
