#184 When And How Do We Charge For Ad Hoc Advice?


Listen Later

In this episode, I’m diving deep into one of the biggest challenges accountants face: how to charge for all that “off-the-cuff” advice we often give away for free.

I’m breaking down my approach to getting paid for the value you provide without resorting to hourly billing. I walk you through my “give away advice, charge for implementation” model – a method that helps you support clients with valuable insights while making sure you’re compensated when it’s time to take action.

We’ll cover real-world examples, like turning those quick tax-saving tips into paid services. Instead of throwing out advice in a meeting and hoping clients see the value, I show you how to position your expertise so that when they want results, they’re ready to pay for it.

You’ll learn the art of communicating value upfront so that clients don’t see you as a “free advice hotline.” We’ll also explore how to create a structure around advice-based services, including simple ways to package these as part of your monthly fees, so clients know access to your brainpower is baked into their investment with you.

If you’re ready to stop giving away your expertise for free and start charging for every bit of value you bring to the table, this episode is for you!
