Write a project brief

What does your business do? (optional)

A sentence or two, so a provider understands your world.

What do you need help with?

Describe the problem or opportunity in your own words: what happens now, and what it costs you.

What have you tried so far? (optional)

Tools, people or fixes you've tried, and how they went. "Nothing yet" is fine.

Which systems and tools do you use? (optional)

Email, accounting, booking, CRM, spreadsheets: anything a solution would need to work with.

What would success look like?

How you'd know it worked, in a few months' time.

When do you need it? (optional)

A rough timeframe, or anything driving the timing.

Who decides, and how should a provider reach you? (optional)

Only what you're happy to share with the providers you send this to.

Budget

A rough range helps providers suggest something realistic. "Not sure" is a fine answer.
