A defined piece of work that fits alongside the counsel you already have.
Every founder-led business runs on things never written down. The judgment, the relationships, the standards, the reasons behind decisions nobody else was in the room for. COtingency gets that out of the founder's head and into a form the business can actually use, in a fixed-scope engagement measured in weeks.
Not sure how much of your company runs through you?
It never needed to be. You were always there.
On vacation. On weekends. The one decision nobody will make without you, and the escalation that resolves the moment you pick up.
Your best customers ask for you by name. A successor inherits the contract, but not the twenty years of trust behind it.
How you price. What you walk away from. Why that vendor and not the cheaper one. You have never had to explain any of it.
COtingency gets what you carry out of your head and into a form the business can run on. A fixed-scope engagement built on two focused days of interviews with you, delivered in as few as 30 days.
A defined piece of work that fits alongside the counsel you already have.
Laura Weaver is where this starts. She talks with founders thinking about what comes next, sometimes years out, sometimes in the middle of a deal, and often before they have told anyone else they are thinking about it at all.
Most founders care as much about what happens to the business and the people in it as about the number on the deal. That is the part Laura works on. The first conversation is about your situation, not a pitch, and if a Genius Handoff is not the right thing for where you are, she will say so.
Laura works with founders preparing for a sale, a succession, or a step back from the day to day, and with those who simply want the business to run without them in every decision. She works alongside the advisors already in the room, including M&A professionals, attorneys, exit planners, and executive coaches.
COtingency is industry agnostic. Founder dependency looks the same in a machine shop as it does in a law firm, and the work has run across manufacturing, professional services, logistics, law, distribution, and construction, among others.
She spent a decade as Director of Operations at Icon Media, running the systems behind a growing company, and built a business of her own before joining COtingency. She has seen from the inside how much of a company can live in one person and never make it onto paper.
She serves in volunteer leadership with 100 Women Who Care Miami Beach and Global Empowerment Mission.
