Pricing: The uncomfortable, but most important question, no one wants to ask.
Meeting Management & Consulting sets its billing structures similar to other professional consultants. Patti will consult with you to determine a mutual satisfactory billing schedule that may be based on hourly, daily or project fees. Many times Patti offers a combination of fee plans. She will ask you for detailed information about the scope and nature of your event, especially when establishing a project estimate. It is important for her to fully understand the scope of your meeting so that she can design and execute a comprehensive proposal appropriate for your organization, audience and budget.
