FAQ

Consulting vs employment — what's the difference?

A consultant is an independent contractor: they invoice you, control how they work and aren't on payroll.

Should I cap consulting fees?

For project work, yes — set a not-to-exceed amount. For retainers, fix the monthly fee and the included scope.
