How does Backchannel with Bryan Strawser work?
We begin with a kickoff call to get aligned on where you are today, where you want to go with things, and what an appropriate strategy might be for getting there.
Then, you can ask me anything you want 24×7 via a private “eyes only” slack channel. I’ll get back to you within one business day – but I’m usually faster during business hours.
It’s that easy!

I have more questions!
Can we talk on the phone or viz Zoom/Teams?
Private Backchannel does not include real-time video or voice communication besides our initial kickoff call.
If you need regular calls, our 1:1 Private Coaching would be a better fit.
Is there any outline or structure for the Private Backchannel engagement?
Both yes and no. Backchannel revolves around unstructured Q&A, where you reach out whenever you’re stuck or have questions. However, we start with a kickoff call to establish an objective, strategy, and tactics. This initial call sets a structured framework for your progress while allowing flexibility in our ongoing communication.
How does Private Backchannel work from the outset?
We typically create a clear roadmap with specific near-term tasks. As you work through these tasks, new opportunities and challenges will arise, which we’ll address as they come up. Given a well-defined objective, Bryan can provide detailed, prescriptive guidance on what you need to do next.
Can I ask you for feedback on presentations, strategy documents, e-mails, etc.?
Yes! Reviewing any of these is fair game.
What if I can’t start right away?
You can pay any time to secure your spot, and then pick whatever kickoff date you like. The clock won’t start ticking until we have our meeting.
