// about the office

A notebook of patterns. A small office. One person.

Prospect Maple is a connector office. We watch business stages play out in specific industries, and when we recognize one we have seen before, we make the introduction to whoever solved it last time.

The office is run by Joe Parker. The same person who reads what you publish, drafts the introduction, signs it, and shows up on the other end of the booking call. There is no team behind the email. The notebook of patterns is one person's, accumulated by paying close attention for years.

We are paid by the practitioner on the other side of the introduction, and only when an introduction turns into a working relationship. So the office is paid to recognize patterns accurately, not to send more introductions. When a match doesn't fit, the cost of writing it falls on us.

This page exists in case you want to verify that. The brand is real. The recognition is real. The signature at the bottom of the email belongs to a person who is reachable on a calendar.

// what we don't do

  • - Maintain lists. Pattern recognition is not a database.
  • - Run sequences. One short follow-up is the whole cadence.
  • - Blast. Each email is composed for a single recipient.
  • - Represent practitioners we haven't watched solve the pattern more than once.
