You are weighing a growth opportunity against the need to strengthen the business you already have.
WHAT WE WILL FOCUS ON
A decision map showing the options, evidence gaps and criteria that matter to your choice.
01
Daniele Pol / Strategic mentoring
A consequential decision deserves a stronger sounding board.
Expand or consolidate? Delegate or stay involved? When the same decision keeps returning to the agenda, more discussion may not be enough. Over three months, Daniele works alongside you to challenge assumptions, review the evidence and recommend a way forward: six sessions and two document reviews.

Is this what you are facing?
You need agreement from the board, owners or senior team on a priority or delegation decision that has stalled.
WHAT WE WILL FOCUS ON
A plan for the conversations needed to reach agreement, assign responsibility and take the first step.
You want confidential senior-level advice, with clear development objectives if your employer funds the work.
WHAT WE WILL FOCUS ON
A record of decisions and progress against agreed objectives, with confidentiality built into sponsor reporting.
03
Think through the decision before you commit.
Examine the choice, the evidence and the options already on the table. Identify the people whose support matters and the leadership habits or concerns making the decision harder.
Prepare the key conversations and take the first agreed actions. Use what you learn to test assumptions and sharpen the recommendation.
Review the decisions and their consequences. Establish a practical review routine you can continue using after the engagement ends.
04
Illustrative scenario · Delegation with commercial safeguards
An illustrative scenario to show how the programme works; not a client case.
Every proposal needs the founder’s approval. Work slows down, yet the founder is concerned about margin discipline and client relationships.
We review proposal evidence, consider approval thresholds and prepare the discussion with the sales lead. A limited trial gives both sides something concrete to evaluate.
The test is whether the team can use clear decision rights and agreed checks, rather than sending every proposal back to the founder.
05
Your investment and the scope of work.
- Advice and recommendations are included; running your team or executing the decisions is not.
- Additional priorities, sessions and document reviews are agreed separately, as are software and external specialist fees.
- Mentoring does not replace psychotherapy, legal advice or specialist assessment.
VAT excluded where applicable. Travel, licences and third-party costs excluded unless explicitly agreed. The proposal defines the final scope.
06
Answers before you start.
What does the starting fee cover?
From €4,500 for three months, including six 90-minute sessions and two document reviews on one strategic priority. The proposal confirms taxes and terms. Any additional work is scoped separately.
Can my employer fund the engagement?
Yes. We agree the objectives and closing review with you and the sponsor before starting. Private conversations remain confidential except for information explicitly authorised in that agreement.
What time commitment should I plan for?
Nine hours of sessions over three months, plus preparation and agreed actions. The initial consultation establishes whether you have the time and opportunity to work on the decision.
How is this different from coaching?
Mentoring includes Daniele’s recommendations on options and priorities. Coaching concentrates on developing how you act and lead. You make the final decisions in either format; mentoring does not give Daniele an operating role.
What should I bring?
An unresolved decision, the alternatives you are considering and relevant documents. We agree which two documents to review. General access to your systems is not required.
What does the initial consultation cost?
€300 plus VAT where applicable for 75 minutes. We work through your situation and you receive a written summary of next steps. If you purchase any package, the full €300 is deducted from its price. This is a credit towards a purchase, not a cash refund.

Business experience behind the coaching.
From building business systems to launching products: explore the projects I have worked on.
Building the systems behind business growth.
2 → 150employees
−40%approximate reduction in marketing costs
40% → 98%contacts handled correctly, approximately
As Braga grew from 2 to 150 employees and expanded to three locations in northern Italy, I helped build the organisation behind that growth. My work ranged from establishing marketing to leading IT and business development, including two years as interim COO coordinating operational teams. I also supported the launch of the solar installation business.
Working with the company’s internal IT team, I configured Zoho and later led the move to Salesforce and its development. In 2026, I developed a proprietary CRM with integrated AI alongside the CEO and COO. It brings leads, marketing and operations together, including automation for calls, WhatsApp and support. Once the operational structure was established, I handed the COO role over to other leaders.
Improvements to data and workflows contributed to a roughly 40% reduction in marketing costs. Correctly handled contacts increased from around 40% to almost 98%. The new CRM connects marketing with operations; full migration from Salesforce is planned by December 2026.
Connecting European market entry with the customer journey.
I supported Mars Venus Coaching’s entry into Europe, working with the US headquarters and CEO on the market launch and European social channels. Co-founded by John Gray, author of “Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus”, the brand needed a European presence supported by campaigns and a way to develop ongoing community relationships.
My remit included GoHighLevel CRM implementation, configuration and automation, alongside marketing campaigns and community nurturing. The work connected the new European channels with the infrastructure needed to manage contacts and follow-up communications.
The European launch combined social channel development, CRM implementation and automation in one programme, connecting promotion with ongoing contact and community management.
Creating a design business, from concept to launch.
I created Desydea, an online platform for selling design products, and led the project as project manager. My remit covered developing the project and portal from scratch, as well as its market promotion.
A central part of the work was recruiting product designers internationally. I brought together professionals from Italy, the UK, Kazakhstan and other countries to build the designer network around the commercial project.
The engagement joined platform development, international designer recruitment and promotion under one project lead, taking Desydea from its initial concept to market introduction.
Launching a premium brand for outdoor living.
I handled the launch and promotion of Fògher, a design-led brand that began with premium grills, barbecues and smokers. It subsequently expanded into outdoor kitchens.
My work focused on introducing and promoting the brand in the premium segment, communicating the quality and design behind its products.
The launch established the brand’s market presentation around premium barbecues, grills and smokers. Its product range later developed into outdoor kitchens.
Growing Italian online sales and entering the US market.
≈ +60%online sales in Italy
For Due Buoi, the historic Italian knife manufacturer, I worked on two online sales priorities: developing the existing Italian market and opening sales in the United States.
The work combined commercial development of the Italian online channel with the launch of US online sales, bringing domestic growth and international market entry into one engagement.
Online sales in Italy increased by approximately 60%. Alongside that growth, I worked on opening the US online sales channel.
From product development to European market launch.
For Montec, I worked on the design and launch of Bacco Clima, a range of climate-control units for wine cellars. The project covered product development and its introduction to European markets.
My remit extended from product-line design to marketing development, online campaigns and the European launch. It connected the product itself with the work needed to introduce and promote it internationally.
Product-line design, marketing and online campaigns formed one European launch project for Bacco Clima’s wine-cellar climate-control range.
