We bill from the time we leave our office to the time we leave yours For clients without our monthly support agreement, our rate is $150/hour. Clients who participate in our support agreement enjoy a discounted rate of $120 an hour.

For new clients, it should be apparent if we will be a good fit for your company within the first hour. If either party feels the business relationship will not be mutually beneficial, we can end our first visit with no charge for our time.
