What our clients say

"Exceeded revenue targets"

We have been blown away by the commercial impact of the transition to an outcome and productivity based model versus the traditional model. We have not only met but exceeded the original revenue targets, but incentivising the team to think innovatively has allowed us to become market leaders.

The focus on outcomes has led to more efficient and effective project execution, higher client satisfaction, and repeat business, all contributing to increased revenue streams. 

The outcome-based model has fostered a sense of ownership and accountability among team members. Everyone is more engaged and motivated to contribute to the team’s success. 

- Catherine L

Partner, Big 4, Tax Transformation Team

"Designing meaningful change"

We launched our Sustainable Work Practices initiative, which resonated strongly with the team and provided a structured approach to making lasting improvements.

While our metrics are different from those of a for-profit organisation, we can see clear benefits in terms of productivity, engagement, and effectiveness.

The framework and modules provided by Productivity Bargain gave us a structured yet flexible approach to designing meaningful change.

Executive Director, ECO Directorate, NSW Government

What our clients say

"Boost productivity and support wellbeing"

I strongly recommend Productivity Bargain to any business that wants to books productivity, support their team's wellbeing, and improve how they work in a way that lasts.

THE 10% HOUR

One focused hour to find

four hours every week

Guaranteed: you will leave with a clear, actionable way to free up at least 10% of your working hours

- or your money back.

SOUND FAMILIAR?

You are already putting in the work.

The calendar is full and the effort is real. What often makes the difference isn't working harder - it's getting clear on which work deserves your attention, and what might be preventing you working effectively.

The 10% Hour is built to give you exactly that clarity. In a single session, we find the one change that will free up meaningful time every week.

THIS IS THE RIGHT SESSION FOR YOU IF...

- You feel reactive. Your day gets hijacked before you've touched your real priorities.

- You're always busy, rarely done. The to-do list never shrinks, no matter how hard you work.

- You're not sure which problems to solve. Everything feels urgent, nothing feels strategic.

- You make decisions by default. You say yes out of habit rather than by design.

- You know something needs to change, you just need help pinpointing what.

Transformation Partnerships at Productivity Bargain

Includes:

  • The 3-minute prework quiz and my prep before we meet

  • Up to 90-minute 1:1 video coaching session

  • A written summary of your North Star and the productivity opportunity we identified

  • A clear strategy for unlocking your 10%

How it works

BEFORE THE SESSION

  • Before we meet, you'll complete a 3-minute diagnostic quiz and share a snapshot of your current to-do list and goals. That's it. The session itself is where we do the real work.

THE SESSION - UP TO 90 MINS

  • Together we focus on two things:

You do the prework, I do the prep, and then we do the work together.

You walk out with clarity and one key action, not a to-do list of homework.

If you reclaim four hours a week and your time is worth $100/hour, this session pays for itself in under four weeks.

FAQs

"Is one hour enough?"

Yes. Most people spend months vaguely trying to be more productive. We go focused and fast. The prework means I come prepared, so we don't waste a minute. 60 minutes of focus on what problem to solve and how to solve it is worth more than ten hours of muddling through alone.

And, I always block out up to 90 minutes so that we have the time available if we do want to do a deeper dive or work through a particularly challenging situation.

"What if it doesn't work for me?"

If you don't leave with a way to free up 10% of your hours, you don't pay. That's a genuine, no-quibble refund. I'm confident enough in the process to stand behind it completely.

"I already know what my problem is. Will I really get value?"

Great! We'll get to the solution faster. A lot of clients come in thinking they know the problem and discover it's a symptom of something deeper. Or know the problem but can’t seem to find a solution that sticks. The 10% Hour often surfaces a more powerful move than what they came in with.

What our clients say

"time for more important things now"

Now I'm more strategic about my time and what I do. Now I spend less time but I get even better results because I look at it as a process now. I get some time to think about more important things now.

- Maria R

Owner, TCBS Accounting and Advisory

"work seems calmer now"

Since I did the 10% Hour with Anne, my team has commented on how work seems calmer now. We are all switching off at the end of the day rather than being always on. Doing this work has made me more intentional about my time. at work, and that has been good for me and my people.
