FAQ

Common questions

Everything you need to know before starting your search.

Typically 2–4 weeks from briefing to shortlist. For highly specific searches or niche markets, it may take a little longer. We'll keep you updated throughout the process.

If your advisor doesn't deliver the agreed, measurable results, Boardio will find you a replacement advisor at no extra cost. You pay once, and we stand behind the quality of the match. Read the full terms →

Advisors are faster to engage, more flexible, and significantly more affordable than hiring or retaining consultants. They typically work part-time, bring specific networks and expertise, and are compensated with equity, a monthly retainer, or a combination — all agreed directly between you and the advisor.

Not necessarily. Many companies come to us with a broad growth goal and we help define the advisor profile together. The more specific you can be, the faster and more accurate the matching — but we can help you shape the brief.

You never pay unless you decide to start working with someone. If the first shortlist doesn't hit the mark, we refine the search. There's no obligation at any point before you commit.

No — Boardio works with growth companies globally. While we have roots in Finland and strong advisor networks in the Nordics, US, Germany, UK and Sweden, we match companies and advisors across 110 countries.
