THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM

Costs.  Always a bit of an awkward subject.

Well,  whilst I will certainly save you money on what an agency would charge you, I still have to reflect in my fee what my experience is worth.

However, you ONLY pay for my time spent on the job (phoning me for my advice is, of course, all part of the service).

There are no retainer fees and I have few fixed over heads, so you aren’t contributing to the fancy new reception hall or, indeed, the fancy new receptionist.

I am pretty open about how THE MARKETING BOX works.  I don’t make money from marking up third party input.  In fact, due to my relationships, I get you the best people for a good rate.

I can charge by time spent or we can agree a project fee upfront which includes my management time.  Either way, bear in mind you aren’t paying me as you would a full time employee, you don’t have to keep me busy and you don’t have to pay me holidays.

Lean and effective remember?
