FEES
Our model started with the conviction that the standard client billing system as practiced is dysfunctional and has become mired in cynicism. The principal evil is the business of charging for services on the basis of the time spent doing it. We will charge you a fixed fee covering your work, without carve-outs or exclusions, calculated on a value-added basis and designed so as to smooth out the peaks and troughs and give you budgeting certainty.
Our contingency or fixed fees provide deep discounts to our standard $1,875.00 hourly rate because time costing makes no sense – there is no connection whatever between the fees charged and the value of the work done. It rewards inefficiency and tempts consultants to behave badly. From the client's perspective, it is uncontrollable and does nothing more efficiently than generate unpleasant surprises at the end of the relationship.
Consultant costs are a business risk like any other. Our business is management of that risk. We give our clients certainty as to their spending and we approach the question of pricing with the client's specific needs and constraints in mind. We believe that our clients would like to pay us fairly for what we do and that a fair sharing of risk and reward is conducive to a strong long-term relationship.
As part of all of our packages, we absorb all routine costs that consultants traditionally charge including emails, faxing, telephone calls, secretarial overtime, tax, and the like. We believe in total transparency – our clients know exactly what services they will receive and the exact costs, with no surprises.
We are proud of the fact that clients have consistently rated us as highly responsive thanks to a formal client feedback program, which fosters productive personal relationships, face-to-face meetings and open communications.
Finally, we are sincerely passionate about what we do and truly enjoy our work. We work with clients we enjoy, hang out with colleagues we like and go home each day with a sense of genuine satisfaction and reward – sometimes while it's still even light outside! If that sounds exciting to you, we would love to work with you.
