Team Rollout / April 2026

Ramp-up plan

A phased team ramp that starts with embedded collaboration alongside your product, design, and CRO teams, then scales pod-by-pod with built-in checkpoints through July 1.

Week 1

Integrate and align
Senior product, design, and CRO leads embed directly with your teams from day one. UX integrates with Slidanna's design group while CRO pairs with Ed on the MVT program and Adobe Target, so the broader team can hit the ground running.

Budgetary view

Example of estimated allocations

Indicative team allocations and weekly fees across the 16-week engagement window. The same ramp-up plan, viewed through a budget lens — useful for planning, not a commitment.

  • We'd like to discuss the ideal profile for the eCommerce Lead / Org Lead — we have a candidate in mind who is our global product lead.
  • The Data Specialist / MVT Developer roles have been combined into a single role — we have an idea of how to fill this niche, for discussion.
  • Decisions 2–3 are optional — the core team can continue working, or we can grow / shrink the team as needed.
