Pricing Questions?

How do I know which model is right for me?+

If you have sporadic, unpredictable needs, start with On-Demand Hours. If you need ongoing strategic guidance and regular touchpoints, Microsoft Advisors is ideal. For well-defined projects with clear deliverables, choose Fixed-Scope Projects. Book a free consultation and we'll help you decide.

Can I switch between models?+

Many clients start with On-Demand to test our service, then move to Microsoft Advisors for ongoing needs. You can switch at any time with no penalties.

What if I use fewer hours than my Microsoft Advisors retainer?+

Unused hours typically don't roll over, but we're flexible. If you occasionally under-utilise, we can adjust your plan or bank hours for bigger projects. We'll work with you to ensure you get value.

Do you offer volume discounts?+

Yes! Hour-block packages offer immediate savings. For Microsoft Advisors engagements, larger monthly retainers have better hourly rates. Annual commitments receive additional discounts—contact us for details.

What's included in the free consultation?+

A 15-minute video call where we learn about your challenges, current Microsoft environment, and goals. We'll provide initial recommendations and explain which engagement model fits best. No sales pressure, just expert guidance.

Do you work with companies outside Australia and New Zealand?+

Our primary focus is Australia (where we're based) and New Zealand, but we work with clients globally, especially in compatible time zones. Remote work is our specialty—we've been doing it for years.

What if my project scope changes mid-way?+

For Fixed-Scope Projects, we handle scope changes through a formal change request process with adjusted pricing and timeline. For Microsoft Advisors and On-Demand, you have natural flexibility to pivot as needs evolve.

Is there a money-back guarantee?+

We stand behind our work. If you're not satisfied with a deliverable, we'll make it right or refund that portion. For Microsoft Advisors clients, you can cancel with 30 days notice, no questions asked.
