Pricing
Our pricing is exclusively based on actual work performed and time spent. We do not charge for travelling time, regardless of the distance, or for "waiting time". We do not charge a premium on expenses, but bill disbursements at cost. We do not take commissions or referral fees from banking providers; our charges are to our clients only. We do not charge commissions or percentages on client cashflow or sales. When our job is done, it's done.

We generally stay in 4-star hotels and prefer the Holiday Inn / HI Express chain in most locations. We eat sensibly and do not charge clients for alcoholic beverages.
Billing and Retainers
Our billings are monthly, and our invoices provide a detailed description of work done and time spent. In appropriate cases, we may ask for an initial deposit or retainer.
