Open decisions — Yafet & Co / Dr. Yoseph

01Decision neededSahara-X

Sahara-X website, email and marketing — one-off close-out, or ongoing management?

The site is built and live, the internal pages and structure are done. What we never closed is what happens after the build. Two clean ways forward — I'm fine with either, I just can't keep doing one while we're billed for the other.

Which one do you want?

A · Project close-out — one-off payment, full handover I invoice the build as a finished project, hand you everything, and my involvement ends there.

All files, code, accounts, domain and hosting access transferred to Sahara-X
A short handover note confirming that from the handover date, uptime, updates, email, CRM and marketing sit with your side — not mine
No monthly fee, no ongoing management, no support window

Full project price sent within 24h of you choosing this B · Ongoing management — Standard plan, 12 months Exactly what we discussed originally and what the agreement I already sent you covers (Section 3):

Website maintenance, backups, uptime monitoring, performance checks
Up to 10 content updates a month, 1 SEO blog post a month
8 LinkedIn posts a month plus LinkedIn growth management
Business email administration, analytics reporting, monthly strategy call

€599 net / month · 12-month term · invoiced on the 1st B* · Ongoing management, but adjust the scope or price first Choose this if the direction is right but a number or a deliverable needs changing. Tell me what in the box below and I'll send a revised agreement before I go.

One thing that applies either way: work already delivered from 1 July onwards gets invoiced under whichever option you pick. Choosing A doesn't erase July and August — it just stops the clock going forward.

02Decision neededExecutive assistance · NDA

The assistant role — is it still what you want?

You asked me to take on your businesses as your executive/personal assistant — running the projects, the correspondence, the procurement and tender side. I've prepared the mutual NDA and non-circumvention agreement for that (it protects both of us equally: your contacts and my contacts, your pricing and mine).

Before I write a scope and a price, I need to know the idea is still live. A straight "not now" is a completely acceptable answer — it just saves us both time.

Where do you stand?

Yes — let's proceed. NDA is fine as drafted. I sign and return the NDA, then send you a scope of assistance and a monthly price within 48h. Yes — proceed, but change something in the NDA first Name the clause in the box. The usual ones people want to look at are the 24-month non-circumvention period (Clause 5.3) and the €3,000 penalty (Clause 8.1). Yes in principle — but I want a call about scope before signing Give me two time slots before 20 August in the box and I'll take whichever suits. Not for now — park the assistant role No hard feelings. I'll stop preparing for it and keep our collaboration to specific projects.

03Waiting on 01Sahara-X Ethiopia software

The Ethiopia software project — held until 01 is answered

This is the next build after the website, and it's mine to deliver. I've deliberately not started it, because how we handle it depends entirely on your answer to 01: if we're on a retainer, it slots in as a project on top of it; if we're closing out, it needs its own agreement and its own price from scratch.

Assuming 01 is settled, when should this start?

Start as soon as 01 is settledI send scope, timeline and price in the first week of September. Scope call first — I need to define what it doesRequirements aren't fixed yet; we talk before anything is priced. Park it — revisit in Q4Off the table for now so neither of us plans around it.

04Decision neededTenders & bids

The bidding side — we keep losing chances to the same gap

We talk about tenders in messages and then the deadline passes. There's no single place showing what we've applied for, what's outstanding, who owns the next step and when it's due. I'd like to fix that with one shared tracker — one link, both of us see the same board, deadlines visible weeks ahead.

Do you want me to set that up?

Yes — build it, you run itI set it up and keep it current; you get a link and a weekly one-page status. Yes — but only once 02 is agreedMakes sense if this sits inside the assistant scope rather than as a separate service. No — keep it as it isWe carry on by message and accept the risk.

Three specific items I need from you for the bids already in motion:

Ethiopia bid 1 — lighting / lamp supply

Current status, submission deadline, and whichever documents you already hold.
Status & deadline
Ethiopia bid 2 — the French-language tender

Same: where it stands, what's still missing, who is drafting what.
Status & deadline
Your contact in Ethiopia — still no reply

The introduction you made hasn't come back to me. Can you nudge them, and by when?
Will you follow up, and when?

Other bids or opportunities I should know about

05Open floor

What do you need from me?

Your turn. Anything you want me to take on, chase, prepare or price — write it here and it goes straight onto my list with a date against it. New ideas welcome too; this is the place they stop being conversation and become tasks.
