Further, when employing a Consultant:
Then, after the Consultation has been completed:
We use Value Based Pricing. Meaning, client pay based on their perception of the value provided. The client defines their expectation. An advance retainer is made by client to the consultant and payments for services are invoiced against the retainer account.
A retainer is a contractual method of providing services that make the professional available to the client for a specified amount of time or scope of work.
We would consider a monthly retainer that would be renewable for or continue on for a year, the time contracted for would expire each and every month.
There are other types of retainers:
With a time retainer, you receive a set and predetermined dollars amount each period (for example, each month) for a predictable level of effort or service, such as analyzing client financial statement or making recommendations for management actions.
A base retainer should be used if you are unable to determine in advance the amount of service you (client) will require. You might agree that you will spend up to three days a month or hours per month, on an activity in exchange for a fee of $ xxxxx amount.
Further, consultant agree to charge for time spent in excess of the three days at a specified figure, perhaps $x xxxx a day or per hour. The client (you) pay for the three days or number of hours, whether or not they are used.
With an availability retainer, the client is guaranteed that consultant is available, if needed, for a specified amount of time, perhaps two days a month. In exchange, the consultant receives a sum usually equal to 25 to 30 percent, of the value of his time.
If the daily rate is $1250, consultant receives $600 per month just to be available. If your (consultant) are used, you either receive your normal fee of $1250 a day, plus $600 or just the $1250, depending upon the wording in your agreement.
Hiring a consultant can take years off of your learning curve.
We focus on simplicity, execution and results, not intimidating novels written in the foreign language of academia. Offering practical direction, not theory. Our solutions and plans are designed to be S-I-M-P-L-E to execute at the street level by employees of average intellect and drive.
