The result

From zero to an operating business foundation

The first 90 days have a concrete objective: build and put into use the agreed pieces the business needs to present itself, receive customers, and operate from a professional foundation.

01

Customer-facing presence ready

Services, business information, presentation, website, and contact paths when they are part of the agreed foundation.

02

A clear way to receive and follow up

We prepare the inquiry, intake, follow-up, payment, or basic commercial steps included in scope.

We start from a real business decision

You already know the business you want to build; we work to get it ready to operate

Business Development is not a course for deciding what business to start. We work from a real decision by the owner and use the first 90 days to build the agreed foundation from zero to a functional operating state.

What we build during the first 90 days

Five areas that turn a business decision into an operating foundation

The exact combination depends on the business and is confirmed before work begins. The objective does not change: by the end of the period, the agreed pieces should be built, configured, and usable.

01

Organize the foundation

Services, offer, core information, pricing, or commercial structure needed to begin operating.

02

Build the professional presence

Website, materials, profiles, contact paths, and other presentation elements included in scope.

03

Prepare customer contact

Contact paths, intake, messages, follow-up, payment, or basic commercial steps when applicable.

04

Organize the operation

Customers, documents, recurring tasks, responsibilities, and tools needed to work with more structure.

05

Put it into use

We configure, test, make in-scope adjustments, and put the agreed systems and processes into use.

Scope and external costs

The monthly service covers the agreed Dale Works work; third-party costs remain separate

External and third-party costs are not included in the monthly service. Government fees, registrations, permits, licenses, certificates, official documents, professional services, taxes, domains, hosting, software subscriptions, advertising spend, payment-processing fees, and other third-party charges are paid separately when required.

Dale Works can organize information, prepare business materials, and coordinate administrative steps included in scope, but fees and services charged by authorities, professionals, platforms, or other third parties remain separate.

What each side provides

Dale Works executes the agreed work; the business provides the facts, access, and decisions that belong to it

To build a real operating foundation without inventing information or taking on responsibilities that do not belong to us, we work from the facts, materials, and approvals supplied by the business.

How we work

From a business decision to an operating foundation

01 · Confirm what must be ready

We define which pieces must be built and usable by the end of the first 90 days and what work Dale Works will own.

02 · Gather what is needed

We gather the information, access, materials, approvals, and any required third-party budget so implementation can keep moving.

03 · Build and configure

Dale Works creates, organizes, and configures the pieces included in the agreed scope.

04 · Test and put into use

We test what was built, make the included adjustments, and leave the agreed foundation ready for the business to operate with it.

By the end of the first 90 days

The agreed foundation should be ready to use, not waiting on another phase to become functional

The initial commitment ends after 90 days. Any continued work is optional and agreed separately; you do not need to purchase a next stage for the initial work to make sense.

01

Presentation and contact working

The agreed pieces for presenting the business and receiving customers should be published, configured, or ready to use.

02

Basic operating processes organized

The included steps, tools, and responsibilities should be defined and put into practice inside the operation.

FAQ

Answers before starting Business Development

Is Business Development for deciding what business to start?

No. It is for owners who already know the business they want to build. Dale Works takes that real business decision and works to turn it into an operating foundation during the first 90 days.

Does Business Development include the entire Dale Works catalog?

No. It includes the necessary pieces defined inside the initial scope to bring the business to a functional operating foundation. The exact scope is confirmed before work begins.

What happens during the first 90 days?

We build, configure, organize, test, and put into use the agreed pieces so the business can move from zero to a professional operating foundation.

How is the service billed?

It is a monthly service with a 90-day initial commitment. The initial period consists of three monthly payments at the current price for your market.

Are registrations, licenses, and other third-party costs included?

No. Government fees, registrations, permits, licenses, certificates, official documents, professional services, taxes, domains, hosting, software subscriptions, advertising, payment-processing fees, and other third-party charges are paid separately when required.

What does the business need to provide?

Accurate information, services, pricing or rules when applicable, existing materials, access, timely approvals, and someone who can make the decisions that belong to the business.

Does Dale Works make legal, technical, or regulated decisions for the business?

No. Those decisions remain with the owner or authorized professional. Dale Works works from the information and approvals they provide.

What happens after the first 90 days?

The initial commitment ends. Any work after that is optional and agreed separately based on what the business wants to develop next.

No. Dale Works is accountable for the agreed execution. Sales, revenue, licenses, financing, approvals, and market outcomes depend on factors we do not fully control.
