Services - Fixed Fee Projects
Instead of billing by the hour, why not bill by the project. Why not define the project up front, allow both the client and the provider to determine what they believe is a fair value for the project, and allow them to reach a negotiated agreement about responsibility and price.
If the project is completed, the client automatically wins. They received value that was equal to, or exceeded, the price they were willing to pay.
In the long run, when the client wins, the provider wins, whether or not they finished the project with an expenditure of energy that was equal to, or less than they anticipated.
If the client and the provider cannot arrive at an agreeable price, it is far better to know before the project has begun, rather than finding out there is a price problem after the project is complete.
If there is a problem before the project is started, the scope of the project can usually be adjusted to meet the price needs of the client.
If you don’t discover a price problem until after the project is completed, either the CPA accepts less than he believes he is entitled too, or the client pays the full amount and feels he has been overcharged. Neither of these results is good for the long term relationship.
So, how do we manage to accomplish this?
By bundling the compliance services the client must have with built in opportunities to plan, and answer questions that come up throughout the year. We do this through our Small Business Annual Compliance and Consulting Contract.
