Recent work
Slides from live engagements. Client names, figures and detail are blurred; the headlines and structure are as delivered.
What I make, and what it costs
Every engagement is a defined deliverable with a quoted price and a delivery date. No hourly billing, no scope creep, no surprises on the invoice.

How it works
Three steps. No quote to wait for, no back and forth before the work starts.
-
Choose a service and pay the deposit
Card or bank transfer through Stripe. Fixed price, so there is nothing to negotiate and nothing to wait for.
-
Upload what you have
Right after payment you land on a page that shows your delivery date and asks two questions. Attach the existing deck, notes, model or contract. Messy is fine. That is the point.
-
Review, revise, done
You hear from me within one business day with any questions, then get a complete draft, not a sketch. Revision rounds are included. The balance is invoiced with the final files.
Who you are working with
I am A.J. Merrifield. I am an operator, not an agency. I am Chief Operating Officer of a company developing projects in eleven countries, and the documents on this page are the ones I write for real: investor decks that have gone in front of government ministers in five countries, including Albania, Kosovo, North Macedonia, Morocco and New Zealand, as well as private investors and boards. Briefings in two languages. Business plans that reframed a product. Contract reviews that caught the clause nobody else read.
Before that I spent a career inside large companies: Senior Executive Vice President at a Fortune 500, senior finance director at another Fortune 500, and senior logistics manager at a Fortune 10. I have sat on the side of the table that reads these documents, asks the hard question, and decides. That is the reader I write for. I also co-authored a personal finance book that reached number one on Amazon, so I know what it takes to get a long document finished and into print.
Founders hire me because the work comes back finished, on the day it was promised. You deal with me directly from the first email to the final file.
Finished, on time, and ready for the room.
Not sure which one you need?
Tell me what you are building, who it is for, and when you need it, and I will tell you which service fits, or whether you need one at all. Usually the same day.
