You're the Most Expensive Firefighter in Your Company
Let's Fix That
Most AI consultants will sell you efficiency. A productivity boost. That's fine, but it’s the solution to the wrong problem. The real problem is that you’re stuck working IN your business, not ON it. We install strategic AI systems that break that cycle. For good.
The System to Extinguish the Fires
You don't need another productivity hack. You need a new operational system. Your Unshakeable SME AI Blueprint is the course where we install it. You will learn the complete REIMAGINE framework to move from reactive firefighting to strategic leadership in under 90 minutes of focused instruction
The Gravitational Pull of the Urgent
You didn't build a business to spend your day untangling operational knots, clarifying miscommunications, and responding to "urgent" emails at 10 PM.
Yet, here you are.
While you've been keeping the engine running, your most dangerous competitors haven't been working harder. They've been building systems to think better.
They're not outworking you; they're out-thinking you.
This isn't a time management problem. It's a systems problem.
Still Unsure? Diagnose Your Operational Drag
If you're not yet convinced, let's get a ruthless diagnosis. This 5-question diagnostic will give you an unsparing look in the mirror and identify the precise archetype of your operational drag—The Reactive Firefighter, The Frustrated Visionary, or The Strategic Operator.
Strategy isn't a document. It's a daily habit.
I’ve sat in boardrooms at global firms and I’ve sat at kitchen tables with founders. The difference isn't the quality of the ideas. It’s the systems that protect those ideas from the gravitational pull of daily chaos.
I started Escape Velocity for one reason: I was tired of seeing brilliant SMEs get outmanoeuvred, not by better products, but by better-coordinated operations.

Our Unshakeable Principles
1. Strategy is not a plan you make. It is a thing you do.
A dusty PowerPoint is a monument to good intentions. True strategy is a daily, 15-minute habit of clear thinking, embedded into your operations.
​
2. AI is not a technology tool. It is a liberator of human potential.
Its purpose is not to replace your people, but to automate the mundane so they can do the meaningful, high-value work they were hired for.
​
3. Working IN your business is an addiction.
It feels productive. It gives you a hit of adrenaline. And it is the single biggest threat to your company's future.
The Escape is a Trajectory, Not an Event
You don't just break free from the gravitational pull of the urgent. You build the velocity to stay free. The Blueprint is your launch sequence.
