WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER

Flexible support shaped around what your practice needs

Whether you need help with one defined piece of work or consistent support each month, we can agree an arrangement around your current priorities. There is no minimum number of hours required, so you can begin at a level that feels appropriate for your practice.

CHOOSE YOUR ARRANGEMENT

One clear hourly rate with two flexible ways to use it

All support is currently charged at £35 per hour. You can arrange a defined piece of ad hoc work or reserve an agreed number of hours each month through a retainer.

Ad hoc support

Monthly retainers

£35 per hour
£35 per hour

Suitable for one off projects, occasional tasks or experiencing working together before considering regular support.

Suitable when you want consistent support and agreed capacity reserved each month.

  • No minimum number of hours
  • A time estimate provided before work begins
  • Paid in full and upfront
  • You will be contacted before work exceeds the agreed estimate
  • No minimum number of monthly hours
  • Hours tailored around your practice

Both arrangements can be used for agreed work across process improvement, content creation and ongoing practice support.

Process improvement

Reviewing and improving workflows, templates, systems and appropriate administrative automations.

02

Content creation

Developing ideas, researching topics, writing copy, designing content, scheduling approved posts and reviewing performance where agreed.

Discuss

Agree

Begin

You tell me what you would like support with and what is currently taking your time.

I confirm the proposed scope, estimated hours and upfront cost before any work begins.

Once the work and payment arrangements are agreed, I begin providing the support within the boundaries we have established.

Good to know

All services are currently charged at £35 per hour.

There is no minimum number of ad hoc or retainer hours.

Ad hoc work is paid in full and upfront.

Retainers are paid monthly in full and upfront.

If work is likely to take longer than the original estimate, I will let you know before continuing.

FIND THE RIGHT PLACE TO BEGIN

Not sure how many hours you need?

You do not need to work this out before getting in touch. Tell me what you would like support with and I can help estimate the time required and whether ad hoc support or a monthly retainer would be the most appropriate starting point.
