PRICING
$150
/Per ****
Project Based
Project-based pricing is a flat fee for your project. You’ll generally pay upfront or in installments, but you’ll know the final price before you start the consulting services and can budget accordingly. There can be additional out-of-pocket expenses, like travel charges or asking for work outside of the original project scope, but you would be notified of that in advance.
$300
/Per ****
Retainer Based
Retainer-based pricing is best for restaurant general managers and owners who want an ongoing relationship. You’ll pay a flat monthly fee, which covers a certain amount of consulting hours or for a specific project. For example, if you want the consultant to come in every month and train wait staff, you’d likely use retainer-based pricing.
