What makes you different?

With a proven track record in growing and supporting businesses, I stand as your one-stop shop for all-encompassing support needs.

How do you charge?

My pricing structure is designed for flexibility and affordability. Initial services are provided on a no-obligation, free-of-charge basis, followed by a 'pay as you use' model. With no retainers, minimum spend commitments, or pre-paid credits, you only pay for the support you need, precisely when you need it, at a rate that comfortably fits your budget.

What do you charge?

After a free trial, my transparent pricing approach involves charging a single flat fee for all services, pro-rated to the minute. This means that the fee for each task precisely reflects the actual time spent. Before commencing any work, I provide you with comprehensive information, including the typical fee for your task. I also undertake a portion of the task on a no-obligation, free-of-charge basis, allowing us to mutually agree on a cost cap. As a fellow business owner, I understand the importance of having full oversight of your spending commitments, and with me, there are no surprises.

My Clients Say

Consultant

I asked Kellie to do some background research for me on a topic relevant to the industry.

It is important to me that I am well informed and credible with clients. She worked independently and quickly to gather and report on the topic and it was excellent.

She delivered documents with summaries, information and content that I was able to digest quickly and use to create content for my clients.

I would highly recommend her and will certainly have Kellie as part of my extended support team.
