Frequently Asked Questions

How do we start? Our typical process starts with al phone call, followed up by an initial meeting if appropriate. If we both agree that it makes sense for us to develop a draft proposal we complete a Key Issue Audit. This consists of a series of interviews with key executives to identify their beliefs about the key issues and a quick analysis to help prioritize the issues. This is generally completed over a two-week time frame. It usually requires six to eight hours of interviews and follow-up discussions with four to six people. We will also provide you with a data request to support our initial analysis to prioritize the issues.

How much does the Key Issue Audit cost? We provide an initial Key Issue Audit and proposal free and without any obligation. This is a $10,000 to $15,000 value that delivers you a prioritization of the issues and a road map for achieving the results you seek.

How much do workshops cost? The costs depend on the scope and duration of the work. Our professional fees range from $2,500 to $5,000 per day depending on the resource and nature of the work. We charge for out of pocket expenses at our cost and without any markups. We provide strategy workshops with senior executives that range from $3,000 to $20,000 depending upon the situation.

What is the origin of the Coplenish name? Our name "Coplenish" is not a real word. It is, however, an important way of doing business. "Coplenish" comes from Latin roots: "co-", or together; and "plenish", or to fill. We like to think of it as shorthand for working together to fulfill your goals.
