Davies Digital Solutions · Boerne, Texas
You don't have to work the digital side out on your own. I'm in your corner for the decisions.
The problem
Every digital question in this business ends up on your desk, whether you know the answer or not.
You're not going to spend a Saturday on it, and fair enough. It sits on the list. It's still there in six months.
Not because you don't want to grow. Because the last one cost money and time you didn't get back.
You're not behind. You're just carrying something you were never meant to carry on your own.
The guide
Ten of those years were in the British Army as a systems engineer, where things had to work first time. Now I do the same for owners here in the Hill Country.
You get me. Same person, every time. I'm not a call centre, I'm not selling you software, and I already know your business by the second month. When something comes up, you ask me and you get a straight answer.
I'm not here to do it and disappear. We work through it together, so by month three you actually understand your own setup.
I'm a digital advisor for small businesses across the Hill Country. Digital Advisory is how you work with me every month.

In software spend avoided, with better alternatives found
"The ability for us not to have to spend time on intake items that are repetitive and menial has saved us not only hours, but mental capital. It allows us to use our creativity on important parts of our business."

The plan
Your name, your email, and what's bugging you. No call, no calendar. I'll look at your business and reply within a day.
You get an advisor in your corner. We go through the software questions, how your systems fit together, and what's worth doing first.
Anything digital comes to me before you commit to it. We sit down together every month. The rest of the time, you're doing what you're good at.
One sentence is enough to start. I'll tell you straight whether I can help, and how.
Where this leaves you
Success
You've got someone in your corner for the digital side. The decisions that used to sit on your list for six months get made, and you're not working them out alone. You spend money on the right things, and you stop losing weekends to research. You start saying yes to things again.
Or, if you don't
You carry it for another year. The same list, the same decisions put off, the same evenings spent guessing. Another tool you paid for and never used. Still the only person who can make the call, and still not sure it's the right one.

What neither of these is
Most owners start on Digital Advisor and stay there. Fractional Digital Officer is for people who want me deeper in the business, not for people who need more services.
Both cancel any time, no contract. Anything that needs building is quoted separately, if and when it's worth doing.
Not every business needs the same thing. If you've got a specific problem, or you want something scoped differently, tell me what it is and we'll work it out.
Questions
Then you'll mostly use me to stop you making an expensive mistake, which is the cheapest month you'll have. Most owners find the opposite happens — once there's somewhere to put the digital questions, they realise how many they'd been sitting on.
No. IT keeps your machines running. I help you decide what software to buy, work out why your systems don't talk to each other, and what to do about the processes underneath them. If your printer breaks, you need someone else.
No. That's the point. You tell me what's frustrating you in plain English and I'll tell you what to do about it. Over time you'll pick things up, because we work through it together rather than me doing it behind a curtain.
I get to know how your business actually runs and what you're using. From there we work out what's worth fixing first. You'll get a written note at the end of the month covering what got done and what I'd tackle next.
No. I'm paid by you and only by you, which is why I'll tell you when the answer is "don't buy it." Most people advising you on software make their money when you buy some.
That's usually a sign there's a system worth building. I'll spot it, tell you what it would take, and price it separately so you can decide. No pressure either way — plenty of things aren't worth fixing, and I'll say so.
I'll quote it separately, at a member rate. But I won't sell you a build you don't need. Being on a flat monthly fee is what makes that possible.
Within one business day, both tiers. Most things get an answer the same day. Fractional Digital Officer goes to the front of the queue. If something needs proper thought, I'll tell you when to expect it rather than guessing.
Part-time technology leadership in the US usually starts around $3,000 a month and runs well past $15,000. That market is aimed at funded companies with engineering teams, and it's priced accordingly.
This is the small business version. Same idea — senior experience, part-time, no salary — scoped and priced for a business that doesn't have a tech department and doesn't need one. It starts at $497, and the full seat is $1,997.
Most owners start on Digital Advisor. It covers the questions, the software decisions, and the monthly hour, and plenty of businesses never need more than that. Fractional Digital Officer is for owners who want me across the whole business rather than answering what they send me. If you're not sure, start lower — moving up is easy.
You cancel. No contract, no notice period, no exit conversation. Anything I've built or mapped is yours to keep.
Based in Boerne, working across the Hill Country. We meet in person once a month if that suits you — coffee usually beats a video call.
