Fee Structure
Each fee structure is agreed upon in writing before the project is undertaken as a flat, fixed project fee or a monthly retainer.
All contracts are written for a negotiated length of time. They can be canceled with a written 30-day notice. All travel and out-of-pocket expenses are approved and billed monthly.
We do not work on a percentage, commission, or contingency basis. ​Learn why here.
