THE ARCHIVE NOBODY OPENS

Fifteen years of email is the deepest record your firm has, and nobody has looked at it since

Mail archives accumulate without anyone deciding to keep them. They contain negotiations, advice, reversals and explanations that were never written down anywhere else, because email was where the work actually happened.

THE PRIVACY QUESTION

Identities out, before anything is shared

  • 01

    Establish what exists

    Six questions about the systems in use. Nothing is accessed at this point.

  • 02

    You set the boundary

    Mailboxes, periods, or correspondents you will not include stay outside the licence entirely.

  • 03

    Anonymization in preparation

    Identifying fields are stripped as part of preparing the data, ahead of any onward sharing.

  • 04

    Paid on completion

    Typically $100K to $2M, Net 30 to 60, once the data is approved, shared, and anonymized.

THE TRACK RECORD

The principals take the first call

“Nearly three years at McKinsey, then bought a company outright and scaled it to $50M rather than advising someone else to.”
Zak KuzbariPartner
“AO Swag and Roofer.com, built and run alongside each other, $21M raised across the two.”

THE MAIL QUESTIONS

What firms ask about correspondence

Email is the most sensitive thing we have.

Which is why scope is yours to set and anonymization happens in preparation before anything is shared. Mailboxes and periods you exclude are simply not in the licence.

Can we include some mailboxes and not others?

Yes. The licence covers a defined slice, and that slice can be drawn by mailbox, by date, or by both.

Ours is spread across two migrations.

Common, and rarely fatal. Archived and exported mail still carries the reasoning. Fragmentation reduces continuity rather than voiding the record.

What is an archive like this worth?

Deals typically land between $100K and $2M. Mail often scores well because reasoning density is high, which matters more than volume.
