Consulting Overview
Our philosophy of consulting is simple. We want to
establish a long term relationship with you over time
to support you as you grow your business. We understand
the resource constraints when first starting up, so
we have developed a three tiered rate structure to
support your cashflow as you grow.
We have pooled the talents and resources of
experts across the region to support your start-up
needs. These EA Partners/Consultants fees range from
$175/hour to $250/hour.
