Client Discovery Skill

The brief a client gives you is rarely the real problem — and the difference is where good consulting (and accurate scoping) lives. This skill preps a discovery session that gets beneath the stated ask to the actual problem, qualifies whether it's a fit (budget, authority, timeline), and pins the success criteria — so you scope and price accurately and write a proposal that lands.

Required Inputs

Ask for these only if they aren't already provided:

• The prospect — who they are, the stated ask, and how they found you.
• Your offering — what you do, so questions probe fit.
• What you need to decide — go/no-go, scope, and price.
