Q: How do I find out whether I need your services or not?
A: Call me or email me to set up an appointment for an initial consultation. This will be an informal meeting over coffee over the phone or in your office. Based on the information about your business that you will share with me, I will suggest various options, one of which may not be my services. If I feel you need my services, I will discuss my methodology and scope of my engagement. Of course there is no charge for initial consultation.
Q: What is your compensation?
A: Initial consultation is free. Part of the initial consultation is a cost benefit analysis. If I don't think that I can add value to your business, I will let you know and it will cost you nothing, However, if we agree that I can add value to your business, I will tailor a fee for my services that best suits your situation (based on an hourly rate or based on the project). So my compensation could range from 0 to a few thousand dollars.
Q: What if I need advice on an ongoing basis?
A: Typically, I stay involved with my client's business after the conclusion of the engagement. For a nominal fee I provide ongoing advice and support.
