We will provide a much more in-depth, hands-on service which is proactive and more effective for identifying problems and providing timeous solutions to enhance a company’s efficiency and growth potential"

Billing & Fee's

We don’t work on the traditional billing system where we bill clients for every little thing we do and every minute we spend on a task. Keeping up with the admin involved in that specific billing system takes too much time that could be better spent on assisting our clients in making their businesses a success.

We make use of a retainer-based billing system which is calculated on the services the client requires and the estimated time that will be spent on fulfilling the client’s needs. This is then negotiated and adjusted to suit both our requirements as well as the client’s budget and then fixed for a minimum of three months. Thereafter the fee is reviewed and adjusted, if necessary, after being agreed upon by both parties.

We have found this form of billing to be more affordable for our clients as it eliminates any surprise invoices during the course of the year that the client may not have budgeted for.

Feel free to enquire with us for more information on how this can benefit you and your business too…
