Talk to Ali about a growth partnership

Three ways to reach us

Pick whichever suits your day; each one reaches Ali directly.

• Call (604) 632-4959 if you'd like to talk it through. A first call usually takes about half an hour.
• Text (604) 632-4959 if you're busy. Send a line about your business and a good time to call back.
• Email Ali@Sedighi.ca if you'd like to share some numbers or a few questions in writing first.

Because office hours run on Pacific time, Ontario owners often find it easiest to call in the late afternoon or early evening, after their own day winds down.

What to include in your first message

A few details make the first reply far more useful. You don't need all of them, and rough answers are fine:

1. Your business name and city, such as Barrie, Kanata or Mississauga.
2. What you sell and who usually buys it.
3. Roughly what one new customer or sale is worth to you.
4. About how many new customers you win in a normal month.
5. Where most of them come from today, if you know.
6. What you're interested in: the Growth Partner Program, a fixed-fee option, or not sure yet.

Here's a template you can copy and fill in:

Hi Ali, I run [Business name] in [City]. We sell [product or service] to [type of customer]. A typical sale is worth about [$ amount], and we win around [number] new customers a month, mostly from [main source]. I'm interested in [the Growth Partner Program / a fixed-fee option / not sure]. You can reach me around [time].

The guide on the numbers a growth partner needs explains how to work these figures out if you're unsure.

What happens next

Three steps, none of which commits you to anything.

1. We reply, usually within one business day, to set up a first conversation at a time that suits you.
2. We talk it through. The first 30-minute consultation is free. We'll ask about your numbers, your customers and your goals, and tell you honestly whether a partnership looks possible.
3. You get a recommendation. That might be a fit and baseline assessment, a fixed-fee option or a referral elsewhere if we're not the right fit. Nothing is agreed until it's in writing.

Before you get in touch: what we can and can't help with

We provide business and marketing consulting, and the growth work agreed in writing. We can help with growth strategy, measurement, search visibility, websites, paid search and follow-up processes.

We can't help with:

• legal, tax or securities advice
• financing, loans or investment
• licensing or compliance questions for your industry, beyond linking to the regulator
• installing, repairing or delivering anything in your business

If your question falls into those areas, your lawyer, accountant or industry regulator is the right first call.

Privacy and follow-up

We use your details only to reply and to assess the work you ask about. Nobody hears from us by email unless they wrote to us first, and no Ontario.Partners enquiry ever ends up on a promotional list. If you share financial figures, they're used solely to judge fit and set a baseline.

If you'd like to read more before reaching out, the FAQ covers pricing, contracts and ownership, and the Growth Partner Program page explains the structure in full.
