FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I take on a very limited number of individual clients, usually charging between $50 and $100 per hour. For presentations, workshops, team-building, and facilitation, I can only ballpark a quote until I understand not only the specific event and task, but what preparation in research and networking will be necessary to craft my work on your behalf. I often travel out of state for events. Any travel and lodging expenses can be expected to be covered by you.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Whether for a speech, facilitation, team-building or individual coaching, I always begin with a [free] personal meeting. I think relationship is probably the most important thing to determine first. Is this a good fit? Then it's on to understanding goals.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've been fortunate to have enjoyed fair success at many endeavors and businesses, and have often been an invited speaker and instructor for many undergraduate and graduate classes and events. I put enormous energy into research about whatever I take on. Over the years this has given me a prodigious load of knowledge and stories to undergird your project.
