DEFINITIONS

We provide support to business owners and other leaders in a variety of ways in our Products & Services:

  • Coaching is partnership (defined as an alliance, not a legal business partnership) between the Consultant and the Client in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires the Client to maximize personal and professional potential. It is designed to facilitate the creation/development of personal, professional or business goals and to develop and carry out a strategy/plan for achieving those goals.

  • Advisory involves the Consultant providing recommendations and/or options on the Client’s business strategy and operations in a way that aligns with Client goals. It may include high level review of business materials and feedback.

  • Support work involves doing work for the Client that involves the creation or analysis of materials. Examples of this work include the facilitating a business plan, developing financial models, creating strategic plans, developing marketing content, or detailed editing of Client’s materials.

  • Training & Education involves working with Users in a group or self-paced setting to provide and teach them how to use tools and resources to help grow their business.

  • Orchestration involves working hand-in-hand with an orchestrator who will be as deeply involved in your business as you allow.

FEES & PAYMENT TERMS

We engage in several types of fee arrangements. If you pay via invoice, the invoice will outline any specific Terms & Conditions of Purchase you are accepting:

  • One Time Fees: For Products & Services delivered as a one-time effort. Examples of this would be single appointment bookings including intensives, individual sessions, or classes. Payment is due before the service is provided unless otherwise noted.

  • Monthly Subscription Fees: Many of our Products & Services are billed as a Monthly Subscription Fee and are initiated upon agreement to move forward with the work, they will be auto-renewed until cancelled. Clients typically engage Concho Consulting for a minimum of 12-months to align with the growth plan established at time of intake but may choose to engage longer. The price can be increased at anytime with a 60-day notice, however we engage in a standard practice of annual pricing evaluations to limit the number of increases experienced. The subscription term begins with the first session and is renewed each month automatically on that date. Your first payment is due prior to any Product being accessed or Services being rendered. You can cancel the subscription at any time before the end of the monthly renewal in writing. Termination will then occur at the end of monthly subscription period. No pro-rated fees will be charged or refunds granted for unused sessions or mid-cycle terminations.

  • Hourly Fees: Most of our engagements allow Clients to request more hours at a standard hourly rate in addition to their Monthly Subscription Fee. Those hours will be billed at the end of each month based on actual hours utilized at the end of each calendar month. The current fee rate will be included in the monthly invoice for transparency.

  • Expenses: Very rarely are expenses required. If expenses are required they will be pre-approved and the Client will reimburse the Consultant for the actual amount of the expense without markup.

  • Session Cancellations and Reschedules: Sessions cancelled within 24-hours are not eligible for reschedule. Sessions cancelled with more than 24-notice will be offered a reschedule at no additional charge. No refunds will be given for unused sessions unless the Consultant cancelled the session.

Payment terms are provided on each invoice. If no payment terms are provided or are unclear then payment is required before Products are accessed or Services are rendered.
