Engagement Model

A–Z Brand Leadership in Residence

A structured 12-month operating model designed to turn vision into a functioning brand system — with clear cadence, decision-making, and execution momentum.

This is not advisory.
This is leadership.

How we operate

Three pillars that define the engagement.

Cadence

Weekly alignment, monthly deliverables, quarterly recalibration. A rhythm that makes progress predictable.

Leadership

Not advisory. We make decisions, set direction, and move work forward with your team (or ours).

Outcome

A brand operating system + a high-functioning team. By month 12, the work runs without VNTA.

12-month structure

Phased work that compounds. Each phase has different priorities and outputs.

Month 1–2

Diagnosis → positioning → narrative. We define what you are, who it’s for, and how it’s expressed.

Month 3–6

Execution system. We ship deliverables, coordinate specialists, and install a monthly momentum loop.

Month 7–9

Scale initiatives. Campaigns, distribution, partnerships, and flagship moves that widen the moat.

Month 10–12

Institutionalize. Documentation, team autonomy, handover, and a clear post-VNTA path.

FAQ

Common questions before starting.

Who is this for?

Founders who want a clear brand direction and a steady execution pace — without the mess.

Do you replace an internal team?

No. We lead and coordinate. Sometimes we help you build the team; sometimes we guide the team you already have.

What do monthly deliverables look like?

Defined outcomes with owners and dates: brand assets, narrative systems, launches, partnerships, or operational brand infrastructure — depending on phase.

What happens after 12 months?

You keep the system and the team. Optional retainers exist for continuity, oversight, or stewardship (invite-only at the top tier).
