Fixed Pricing
What I have found is that local firms run by partners with a big firm background long for the day their local firm is considered a big firm too. They try to run their local firm as if it was one of the “Big 4.” They promise you small firm service with big firm experience. What they really deliver is big firm prices done by small firm staff. It is nearly impossible to keep your billing down when the work is done by a staff, reviewed by a manager, returned to the staff for corrections, re-reviewed by a manager, and then given a cursory once over by a partner – especially when that partner dings your account for an hour of his time at $350 – $500 an hour. With all those hands touching your work, how can they keep a bill down? I know I couldn’t do it if I had all those hands in the pot. Hourly billing merely means inflated bills. This is why I offer guaranteed fixed pricing – one price for all your agreed upon services – no matter how long it takes.
Free Phone Calls
What if you need some advice? Who do you call – the staff at $100 – $150 an hour, but who knows little, the manager at $200 – $300 an hour, but who isn’t the reason you engaged that firm, or the partner you did sign up with at $350 – $500 an hour? Ever make that call, spend 15 minutes on the phone with the partner, and then get hit with a $$$ bill? I don’t bill for phone calls. That’s right – unlimited calls at no charge! I’m your accountant and business advisor, not your attorney.
Guaranteed Service
What happens when you are unhappy with the service provided? Ever been offered, let alone been given, a refund. Not happy you made the switch to me? My service didn’t meet your expectations? Just tell me you want a refund, and it will be provided. All I ask is that you let me know how/where I failed so I can do better with my other clients.
