Your message has been received
It has gone straight into the firm’s own system rather than into a shared inbox, and the reply comes from a person rather than an autoresponder, by email to the address you gave.
What happens next
1. Your message is read. Intake is handled by the firm rather than by one inbox, and messages are answered in the order they arrive.
2. The reply comes from Sivad’s team. It addresses what you actually wrote, it is written by the consultants who would carry the discipline your question sits in, and if the question has a short answer you get the short answer rather than an invitation to a call you did not ask for.
3. If we are not the right firm, we tell you. Not every inquiry is work we should take, and we would rather say that in the first reply than three meetings in. Where we can point you toward someone better suited, we will.
