Bonyad’s Professional Services practice covers the engagements that don’t fit a one-off project — fractional executive support, ongoing strategic advisory, board observer roles, monthly operating reviews, and retained partnership for portfolio companies. These engagements are designed for founders, CEOs, and investors who don’t need a one-time deliverable; they need an ongoing partner with senior-level context who shows up consistently, asks the right questions, and helps drive decisions across the business. Engagement structures are flexible — monthly retainer, equity-based, or hybrid — and shaped around how your business actually runs.
Q: How is this different from a one-off project? A: Projects deliver a specific output. Ongoing engagements deliver continuous strategic capacity — best when the business needs a permanent senior voice, not a deliverable.
Q: What’s the typical commitment length? A: Most engagements run 6–12 months minimum, with quarterly review points.
Q: Can engagement compensation include equity? A: Yes, for early-stage companies. We structure cash, equity, or hybrid based on your stage.
Q: How much time will you actually spend on our business? A: Depends on the role. Advisory cadences typically range from 4–20 hours per month, with availability for urgent decisions in between.
