SparkAnglesStrategy consultants give you a report. SparkAngles gives you intelligence every single morning.
Strategy consulting engagements produce exceptional work — deep research, rigorous analysis, clear recommendations. They also end. The report gets delivered, the team moves to the next client, and your business continues operating in a changing world without the intelligence that informed the strategy. SparkAngles is what happens between consulting engagements — continuous daily intelligence that keeps your strategy connected to market reality, automatically, without another six-figure engagement.

The Strategy-Execution Gap
Strategy fails not because it was wrong, but because execution drifts from market reality. A consulting engagement produces a brilliant strategy report — we will win in enterprise, lose in SMB, invest in product X, not product Y. Three months later the market has shifted. A new competitor entered. Customer preferences changed. The strategy is now partially obsolete but nobody has updated it. The consulting team has moved on. Your business is operating on outdated intelligence.
SparkAngles keeps the connection alive. Every morning your team wakes up to strategic intelligence specifically connected to your business. You see new market signals immediately. You notice competitive threats as they emerge. You adjust strategy before execution has drifted too far from market reality.
What Happens Between Consulting Engagements?
A typical consulting engagement lasts 3-6 months. Then the team leaves. Your business operates for 6-12 months until the next engagement. That gap is the strategy-execution problem. Strategy was informed by market conditions that existed during the consulting project. Market conditions are now different. You are executing on increasingly outdated information.
SparkAngles is the intelligence layer for that gap. It is not replacing the consulting engagement — it is maintaining strategy connection between engagements. Continuous daily intelligence keeps your executive team informed without expensive external consultants. When the next consulting engagement arrives, they arrive already informed about current market reality.

What's the strategy-execution gap?
Most strategy failures don't happen because the strategy was wrong. They happen because the organization lost connection to the market signals that informed it. A consulting engagement produces a brilliant strategy report, then the consulting team leaves and your business operates in a changing market without fresh intelligence. By the time you update strategy, months have passed and the competitive landscape has shifted again. SparkAngles keeps that connection alive daily.
Can I use SparkAngles alongside strategy consulting?
Absolutely. SparkAngles becomes the bridge between consulting engagements. During engagements, update your consultants with SparkAngles insights so they understand current market reality. After engagements, use SparkAngles to maintain strategy connection. Between expensive consulting projects, SparkAngles keeps your strategic thinking up to date.
