# Owner Exception Brief Discovery Call

## Goal

Leave the call with one of three outcomes:

- a clear pilot opportunity
- a clear disqualification
- a clear next step with required inputs

## 20-Minute Structure

### 1. Frame the problem

Use:

`Most operators do not have a data problem. They have a control-layer problem. The goal here is to see whether your current reporting actually gives ownership-grade visibility.`

### 2. Current-state questions

- How many sites or properties are you actively managing?
- What operating reports do you already review every day or every week?
- Where do you feel blind right now?
- What problems do you hear about too late?
- Which issues tend to linger because nobody clearly owns them?

### 3. Pain qualification

- Is the bigger problem money leakage, execution drift, or leadership visibility?
- Which operating lane hurts most right now: occupancy, maintenance, collections, security, or something else?
- How are action items tracked after meetings or reviews?

### 4. Fit confirmation

- Do they have recurring source files?
- Is there a clear decision-maker?
- Can the first pilot be kept narrow?

### 5. Offer the pilot

Use:

`The cleanest way to test this is a 7-day pilot. We take one slice of the business, build the first owner-grade brief, and you judge whether it gives you a better control view than what you have now.`

### 6. Close for next step

- if yes: request inputs and schedule delivery review
- if maybe: send pilot scope and one proof example
- if no: close cleanly and move on

## Good Buyer Signals

- already drowning in reports
- multiple sites or departments
- owner or operator complains about lack of visibility
- recurring problems stay unresolved too long

## Bad Buyer Signals

- wants custom consulting without structure
- no recurring data or no authority
- wants broad strategy before proving narrow execution
- overly small problem with no real cost of inaction
