# A free 30-minute call about your Power BI with Alan Harman-Box

> Got a problem with your own Power BI, and not sure whether I can help? Tell me about it. Maybe your reporting all rests on one person, or two reports give different answers to the same question, or it's something you can't quite put a name to yet. You don't need a polished brief to book. On the call, you tell me what's going on and I ask questions to understand it better. Sometimes that's enough: I can point you to what to do next, or tell you if it isn't something I can help with. If I need more time to think about it, I'll follow up afterwards. 30 minutes on Microsoft Teams, free. Any further work is quoted separately, usually as a fixed price. If you're happy for me to record the call, tick the box when you book; without a tick, it isn't recorded, and Teams deletes recordings automatically after 60 days.
