Ways to Engage

One Operator. A Few Ways to Work Together.

Pick the format that matches where you are. Exact scope and pricing are set together on the discovery call, not guessed at here.

01

Free Discovery Call

Complimentary · 30 minutes

A focused call to map what's draining your week and whether we're the right fit. You leave with a punch list either way.

Book the call

02

Project Engagement

Fixed-scope · Weeks, not months

A defined deliverable: a market-entry push, a systems build, an operations fix that needs senior attention now, not a new hire.

03

Fractional Retainer

Ongoing · Monthly, Chief of Staff or Operations Partner scope

Recurring senior leverage across calendar, operations, and stakeholder management, without the cost of a full-time hire.

04

Embedded Executive Assistant

Ongoing · Hourly retainer, 10–20 hrs/week

Daily support for a single executive: inbox, calendar, travel, and communications, run with the same discipline as the retainers above.

Pick your scope

What you can hire me as

Companies use different titles for the same leverage. Pick the page that matches the role you're hiring for, or just book the call and we'll scope it together:

The hiring path: three steps, ~five days

Discovery call (30 min, free): What's draining your week, the two or three highest-leverage moves for the first 30 days, and whether we fit. You leave with a punch list either way. Book it here.
Proposal (within 24 hours): One page: scope, format, starting deliverables, pricing, mutual NDA. Plain language, no legal padding.
Sign & start (within 5 business days): Kickoff call, decision-rights doc, operating rhythm installed in week one. First deliverable lands in days.

The Objections, Answered Straight

"Remote can't work for executive support." The evidence says otherwise: 80% faster team response, 200+ agents onboarded, market entry on three continents, all delivered remotely. Remote-first forces the documentation discipline most in-office EAs never build.

"I've been burned by VA agencies." So have most of my clients. The difference is structural: agencies sell junior hours through templates; this is one senior operator with named testimonials, published case studies, and a portfolio of real deliverables you can open.

"The time zones won't line up." EAT (UTC+3) covers European hours live and US East mornings-to-afternoon. US founders get a pre-staged morning: work moves while you sleep. Ask the Stockholm fintech how it worked.

"It's risky to give someone this much access." Mutual NDA, client-owned systems, encrypted storage, written decision rights, monthly terms, no lock-in. You hold the keys at all times.

"How do I know the quality is real?" Seven verified Google reviews, including named engagements at Pioneer Outsourcing BPO and Gregory Swarn Enterprises. Seven published case studies. Live artifacts. Direct references after the discovery call.

What Happens in the First 30 Days

Week 1: kickoff, systems audit, decision-rights doc, triage rules live. Week 2: operating cadence installed, including tracker, decision log, and weekly report. Weeks 3–4: I own the highest-leverage items end-to-end and you see the hours-back number move. The metric I report weekly is the one that matters: how much of your time came back.

FAQ

Before you book: common questions

Is Abraham Otieno currently available for new engagements?

Yes, as of mid-2026 I'm available for new remote engagements and keep a deliberately small portfolio (typically 3–5 active clients) so each gets senior attention. Discovery call within 48 hours, engagement signed within 5 business days, kickoff the same week.

Which role should I hire you for?

Don't start with the title. Start with the bottleneck. Losing your week to coordination: EA scope. Strategic projects stalling between meetings: chief-of-staff scope. Team reliability and systems: operations scope. Most engagements blend two of the three, and the discovery call settles the mix in 30 minutes.

How does pricing work?

Three formats: hourly retainer (10–20 hrs/week, ongoing EA support), monthly retainer (chief-of-staff or operations-partner scope), and project-based (system builds, market entry, one-off launches). Rates are senior-operator level but Nairobi-based, well below US/UK equivalents at the same seniority. Exact pricing is agreed in the discovery call. No setup fees, no long minimums.

What if it doesn't work out?

Engagements are monthly: you can stop any time it stops earning its keep. Everything I build is documented in your systems, owned by you, and designed to survive handoff. There is no lock-in by design.

How do you handle confidentiality and security?

Mutual NDA before discovery details, engagement agreement before execution. Client-owned drives, encrypted storage, 2FA enforced, no personal channels for client work, and agreed data-retention rules at engagement end. I work within your security policy if you have one.

Can I speak to references before signing?

Yes. Seven verified Google reviews, several with the reviewer's company named, are published on this site, and direct references are available on request after the discovery call.

Every other question a hiring CEO asks is answered in the full FAQ.
