    You don't have to be a Fortune 500 company to get the world-class consulting services you need

    You are a senior executive looking to improve your organization's performance, but you need more time, deeper expertise and hands-on support to make it happen.

     

    Continuing without support means you could be delaying progress, impacting company and team performance, losing out on opportunities and jeopardizing customer relationships.

     

    Our team offers quick wins as well as long-term support to help you achieve the desired results on a timeline that fits your needs.

    FAQs



    Here are a few of the most common questions we get about how we price our services. If you have any questions, please reach out, we would be happy to get you the answers you need.

    How much do your services cost?

    Our services are customized to the individual organization and based on the scope of work to be performed, so it's difficult for us to give a general estimate without knowing your needs. We encourage you to reach out, and we'd be happy to provide you with an estimate based on the services you're looking for and the goal you're looking to achieve.

    How do you bill?

    Our billing is dependent on your engagement type (project, virtual, or interim) and the service delivered. For example, our project-based engagements are billed differently than our virtual engagements. We work with you and your finance team early in the process to ensure you're getting the bill when it's appropriate for you and your organization. 

    Do you bill on time or by the project?

    We typically bill by project or engagement. This allows us to stay committed to delivering you value, not punching a time clock. 

    How will Stratford's performance be measured?

    We are committed to delivering value and results. From the outset, we work with you to understand your needs and your objectives and together define what success looks like. This all happens in the proposal stage, so before you even spend a cent, you will understand exactly what will be developed, delivered, implemented and measured. As part of our operating rhythms with you, we establish regular check-ins and milestones throughout our engagement to ensure you are getting the value and seeing the results. We consider ourselves a part of your team, so your success is our success.

    Who will be working on my engagement?

    One of the benefits of working with Stratford Group is that you have access to a full team of experienced executives from a number of business areas. Your project team or virtual department is clearly defined before work starts, but should your needs change as your organization evolves, we have the expertise and experience to flex with you.

    How do I pay?

    We have a number of payment methods available. We accept etransfer, wires, and ACH direct deposits. Credit cards may be accepted but with an additional fee.  

    I'm unclear on how consultants can help. Can't I do this in-house?
    Sure, you can, but at what cost? Many of our clients choose to leverage consultants so that they can maximize their time, effort and budgets to make progress on initiatives that will drive results. Consultants bring in an outside perspective that can overcome internal blindness and can drive a project or initiative forward while you continue to focus on what matters most - running the business.
