Pricing

Pricing: a first project, or a consistent voice

Your first or stand-alone project is $1,500. That covers the startup interview, the vision matrix, and one deliverable. Ongoing engagements start at $3,500 a month for a consistent voice, month after month.

Two ways in

Two ways in: a first project to see how I work, or an ongoing engagement once you do.

First or stand-alone project, $1,500

You get the startup interview, the vision matrix, and one deliverable. This is the way to test the fit and the voice on a single piece that has to be right: a funding announcement narrative, a keynote, a founder letter, or a category-defining essay.

Ongoing engagement, from $3,500 a month

Once you have seen how I work, this is a consistent voice: ongoing social media and bylined content, month after month, on about 30 minutes of your time. See how I work for the process behind it.

Which one is right for you

If you have one moment that matters, a launch, a round, a keynote, take the first project. If being known as the voice of your category is the goal, take the ongoing engagement. If you are not sure, start with the first project and decide after the first document.

What is not on this page

No hidden line items, no per-word billing, and no surprise invoice. The $1,500 or the monthly rate is the number. Anything outside that gets agreed before it happens. If something here is unclear, the questions buyers ask page covers the rest.
