Pick a direction, a team size and a timeline, and watch the hours and dates update.
This tool runs the same fixed scope consulting engagement numbers stated on the consulting directions page — nothing here is invented per selection. Choose an option below and the outline changes with you: implied hours, deliverable format, and the month it makes sense to ask for. It ends in the same inquiry the studio would want anyway, already filled in with what you chose.
The hours are fixed. Only the outline around them changes.
A strategy session is three hours whether your team is two people or twelve. A retainer month is eight hours whether the decision is small or large. What actually changes with your inputs is the deliverable format, whether the team-size band needs a scope conversation first, and which month is realistic to ask for, given that Zervuqo runs four active engagements at a time and no more.
That is the honest limit of what a page like this can tell you. It is a planning aid for an independent business consultant in Austin, Texas — not a booking system, and not a price calculator. The result panel says so directly, and the inquiry it produces still gets read and confirmed by a person before anything is agreed.
Bring the decision, not a project brief.
The notes field in the inquiry does not need to be formal. Say what you are trying to decide, who owns that decision, and roughly how many invoices, tools or people are involved. That is the same information the studio would ask for on a first call — writing it down first just means the first call moves faster.
Do not paste account passwords, full payment records or anything a client would not want forwarded by email. If a review needs invoice detail, the studio will tell you a safe way to share it after the inquiry is read, not before.
Three steps from this page to a confirmed engagement
The configurator only gets you to step two. Steps three and four happen with a person, not a page.
-
Choose direction, team size and timeline
The three inputs above map directly onto the four consulting directions. Changing any one of them updates the outline immediately — there is no submit button until the inquiry itself.
Takes about a minute -
Read the outline and send the inquiry
The result panel writes a plain summary and pre-fills the inquiry fields underneath it. Add the specifics in the notes field, confirm your contact details, and send it.
A few minutes, at most -
The studio confirms scope, timing and fee
A person reads every inquiry. If the four active engagement slots are full, you are told that plainly and given a realistic date, not a vague "we'll be in touch."
Usually within two business days
Straight answers about the outline
The tool is a planning aid, not a booking engine. Here is what it can and cannot promise.
Is the outline this tool produces a quote?
No. It is a plain-language summary built from the fixed hours and formats stated on the consulting directions page. The actual fee is a basis until the studio has confirmed real scope — an invoice count, a team size, a specific decision — after the inquiry is sent.
What happens if I choose the 8–12 team-size band?
The outline still generates, but the studio treats that band as the upper edge of what it takes on. Past twelve people, Zervuqo is not the right studio, and an inquiry from a larger team will get told so directly rather than quietly accepted.
Why does the suggested month say "unconfirmed"?
Because the studio runs four active engagements at a time and this page has no live calendar feed into that capacity. The suggested month is the month to request, not a held appointment; availability is confirmed by a person after your inquiry arrives.
Can I change my answers after sending the inquiry?
Yes. Reply to the confirmation email or call the studio directly at +1 (365) 555-8425. Nothing is booked or billed from a single inquiry, so changing your mind before the first call costs nothing.
Prefer to read the four directions first, in full, before touching the configurator? That page has the same numbers, written out direction by direction.
