What You Can Expect

Regardless of which model you choose, our commitment is the same.

Expert Listening

We listen deeply to understand your unique situation, challenges, and goals. Every conversation is focused, intentional, and respectful of your time.

Strategic Guidance

You get expert counsel grounded in 27+ years of business experience. Practical, actionable advice tailored to your situation, not generic solutions.

Factors That Influence Pricing

Engagement Scope

The complexity and breadth of the work—whether it's focused coaching, comprehensive consulting, fractional C services, or advisory/board work—affects pricing.

Time Commitment

Hourly engagements are billed per hour. Retainers are structured based on estimated monthly hours or engagement activities (e.g., weekly sessions, monthly board meetings).

Depth of Partnership

Long-term retainers often provide better value due to the depth of relationship and cumulative understanding of your business. Pricing is customized accordingly.

Combination Services

If you're engaging multiple services (e.g., coaching + consulting + fractional C), we can bundle pricing to optimize value and eliminate gaps.

Customization

Every engagement is unique. We work with you to design a pricing structure—whether hourly, retainer, or hybrid—that aligns with your budget, timeline, and goals.
