Acorn Works

Start here

Tell us what's broken. Or what you'd build if you had the time.

Describe it in your own words — a problem that keeps costing you, or an idea you've never had time to chase. A few questions later, you'll have a sketch of the system we'd build.

Not sure where to start?

Nothing is sent to us unless you choose to send it, and a person reads anything that comes through.

The arithmetic

Put a number on the workaround.

However we fix it, this is what the current way costs you.

4

Loaded cost = wages + taxes + benefits. If unsure, $30 is conservative for office staff.

2 people × 4 hrs/week × $30/hr × 52 weeks

$12,480 a year

The next step

Send this to us. We'll tell you if we agree.

The sketch and your conversation go to the two of us, along with anything you want to add. We reply with whether we see it the same way — usually within a business day.

Prefer to skip all this? One email in your own words works too.
