Ask-Doug Consulting
Sometimes a business has questions or situations that cannot be handled at a seminar. To meet these business needs, several consulting arrangements are available. Rates subject to change.
On-site
consulting: I will visit your place of business (or other
location) and work with you on a "Taylor-made" collection
strategy. Depending on your needs, we can review your credit
agreements, collection policies and procedures, letters, payment
plans, collection software and installation, etc. Cost: $100 an hour
consulting fee; travel time at ½ the consulting fee rate, travel
expenses as necessary. Minimum 2 hours.
"You-travel"
consulting: Same as on-site consulting, except you're not
needing to pay for my travel time or expenses. We will meet at a
location in Walla Walla/College Place, or some other location, if I'm
already going to be there. Cost: $100 an hour consulting fee. Minimum
2 hours.
Consult
by mail: This is useful for having letters and forms created
or reviewed. Cost: $60 an hour consulting fee. Minimum ½ hour.
E-mail
consulting: You email me your question or situation. Typical
response time is 1-2 business days. This is useful for simple
questions. Complex questions or answers require a phone consult.
Cost: $10
Phone
consulting: You call me with your question or situation, and
we can talk through your options and possible solutions. For fastest
response, leave a message if I'm not in the office when you call.
Cost: $10 for a simple question (up to 5 minutes), $25 for a more
lengthy consult (5-15 minute consult; $15 for each additional 15
minute block of time).
Bonus:
Occasionally someone will forget to ask a question or bring up a
problem at the seminar. If this happens to you, you may have one FREE
phone consultation (15 minutes), if you call within 30 days of the
date of the seminar.
