1
Discover
Understand the business, the current friction, the people involved, and what success should look like.
Your role
Share context, goals, current tools, and one or two real examples.
Process
Understand first. Build second.
The MethodMade process keeps projects practical, scoped, and understandable—especially when the starting problem is messy or crosses several tools and workflows.
Core principle
Choose the simplest practical improvement that helps.
Good systems work starts by understanding what is happening now, then scoping the smallest improvement that addresses the real cause.
How it works
A clear path from problem to practical handoff.
2
Assess
Find the real bottleneck before deciding whether the answer is content, workflow, automation, documentation, or a connected system.
Your role
Answer follow-up questions and help confirm what matters most right now.
3
Scope & estimate
Shape the work into clear deliverables, assumptions, boundaries, timing, and a project estimate based on the actual work involved.
Your role
Review the proposed scope and ask questions before approving the project.
4
Build
Implement the agreed improvement with clear communication, practical testing, and intentional decisions when something changes.
Your role
Provide feedback and approvals at agreed checkpoints.
5
Handoff
Leave behind notes, recommendations, and next steps so the system can be understood, used, and improved.
Your role
Review the handoff and decide what, if anything, should happen next.
Plain English before jargon
Recommendations should make sense even if you do not live in tech tools all day.
Scope before implementation
The work should have clear boundaries before time, money, or tools get committed.
Useful over flashy
The goal is a system that helps the business, not a shiny thing that is hard to maintain.
Client-owned tools where possible
Core accounts should stay under the business owner’s control whenever practical.
Documentation where appropriate
Handoff notes and tool guidance keep the work understandable.
Practical next steps
Every engagement should leave the business clearer about what happens next.
