For the month of August we are running a promotion. When you purchase a 4 or 8 hour mentoring block with Stedman Solutions, you will receive 6 months of our Daily Monitoring product for free. The monitoring is over a $600 value.

As an IT professional working on SQL projects, you may occasionally find yourself in need of expert guidance to ensure success. My SQL Server Mentoring services at Stedman Solutions are designed to provide the support and expertise you need to overcome challenges and achieve your goals. With a team of experienced mentors, we’re committed to helping you navigate the complexities of SQL Server and deliver outstanding results on your current projects.

What is our mentoring product?

SQL Server Mentoring is a training / consulting option for those who just need a little help or direction. This SQL service is a cost-effective approach for those who need just a little help. Some call it coaching, others call it micro consulting, but its all basically the concept of having someone you can turn to for those quick questions that don’t require a full on consulting arrangement.

Here is how the SQL Server Mentoring works with Stedman Solutions, LLC.

  • Purchase your prepaid balance for a minimum of 4 hours.
  • When you have something that you need help with just send an email, and Steve Stedman will work on helping with your request. Your request can be on just about any SQL Server administration, programming, or performance tuning.
  • Depending on the nature of your request, an email follow may take care of it, other times it may take a remote session with something like Teams or Zoom.
  • You pay for only the time spent answering your request, with a 20 minute minimum time block.
  • Most responses are handled within 4 hours. Most will be less.
  • When your prepaid time is used up, you will receive an invoice with an option to renew for another block of time.
  • Prepaid time doesn’t expire.

With the mentoring help, we are happy to help with most anything related to SQL Server, from performance and query tuning to helping with reports, or helping design your next database.

The difference with mentoring and our typical hourly work is that with the mentoring our goal is to teach you, the client how to do things, rather than just doing it. Often times this involves a short screens share where we can help guide you through the process of getting to a solution.

Sometimes this involves walking through an execution plan and finding why a query is slow, or it can include just talking about your database goals, and coming up with ideas. We are there to help.

What I enjoy about mentoring.

Working with clients on our SQL Server mentoring is one of the most rewarding tasks that I do at Stedman Solutions. What a love about the mentoring work is that we can usually make such a big impact in a short amount of time for our customers.

-Steve Stedman founder and owner of Stedman Solutions (also chief mentor)
