BOOK A CALL WITH MARK

Pick a time that suits you, or tell me when you are free.

Two ways, whichever you prefer. The calendar below shows real openings in my week and books the moment you choose one. If none of them fit, or you would simply rather not pick out of a grid, tick the windows that work further down and I reply by email with one time, on the number you give me.

No cost · Nothing to buy on this page · Nobody phones you unless you asked for a call

Pick a time now

Thirty minutes, Monday to Friday, 9:00am to 4:30pm Pacific. These are real openings in my own calendar — whatever you take is booked the moment you take it, and the confirmation comes from Google rather than from me.

Choose a time

Would rather not use a booking page, or nothing there fits? Send me your windows instead — the form is further down this page and it reaches me the same way.

What the call actually is

Twenty to forty-five minutes, whichever you pick, with me — Mark Griffin — and not with anybody else. I ask what your operation looks like and where the hours go. You ask whatever you want. At the end one of us says whether there is a next step, and quite often the honest answer is no.

What I will have done before we talk

  • Read your website, if you give me one, rather than asking you to describe it to me down the phone.
  • Read what you wrote in the box below. That is the whole reason the box is there.
  • Brought whatever you asked me to bring. There is a field for that and I do use it.

There is no deck. There is no screen share unless you want one. If you want video instead of a phone call, say so below and I send you a link with the confirmation.

What it is not

  • Not a sales call dressed as a consultation. If what you need is not something I do, I will say that on the call rather than three emails later.
  • Not a commitment. Booking a time commits you to a conversation and to nothing else.
  • Not a promise of a result. Nobody can tell you what AI is worth in your operation before looking at your operation, and anyone who does it from a landing page is selling you something.

How the times work

I work Pacific time from Oregon. If you used the calendar above you are done and nothing below applies to you. If you would rather send windows, tick every one that works for you rather than the single best one — the more you tick, the sooner one of them lands, and I take the earliest that is free. If none of the windows fit, say so and write the exact days and times underneath; that field is read by a person, not parsed by software, so write it however you think about it.

You will get an email from admin@direct-me.org with the confirmed time in it. If the time no longer suits by then, reply to that email and we move it — that is normal and it costs nothing.

Send me your times

Everything here goes to me directly. Your details are used to arrange and hold this call and nothing else — I do not sell, share or rent them.

    The call happens on this number unless you ask for video below. It is used to reach you about this call and nothing else.


    Two or three sentences is plenty. It decides whether this is worth your time, so plain is better than polished.

    Tick more than one. The more windows you tick, the less back-and-forth it takes, and I book the earliest one that is free.

    For example: “Tuesday 23rd after 2pm, or any morning that week except Thursday.” Write it however you think about it — a person reads this, not software.

    Would rather just write to me? Send a note instead — it reaches the same inbox. If you are an owner-operated company weighing up the three-week engagement, the detail is on the Operations Review page.

    Questions about booking a call

    How long is the call, and who is it with?

    Twenty to forty-five minutes, whichever you pick, with me — Mark Griffin — and not with anybody else. I ask what your operation looks like and where the hours go. You ask whatever you want. At the end one of us says whether there is a next step, and quite often the honest answer is no.

    Does booking a call commit me to anything?

    No. Booking a time commits you to a conversation and to nothing else. It is not a sales call dressed as a consultation, and it is not a promise of a result: nobody can tell you what AI is worth in your operation before looking at your operation.

    What times are available, and how do I change one?

    Thirty-minute openings, Monday to Friday, 9:00am to 4:30pm Pacific, from my own calendar. You get an email from admin@direct-me.org with the confirmed time in it; if the time no longer suits by then, reply to that email and we move it. That is normal and it costs nothing.
