What does a business consultant actually cost, and when does the ROI show up?
What does a business consultant actually cost, and when does the ROI show up?
Pricing falls in three brackets. Hourly: $150 to $400. Daily: $1,500 to $5,000. Project-based fees scope to outcome, typically $25,000 to $250,000. ROI usually surfaces between months 6 and 12, through efficiency gains and revenue growth that compound after the engagement ends. The cheap consultant is rarely the lowest-cost choice once you measure outcome per dollar.

How do you calculate Fractional Leadership ROI?
How do you calculate Fractional Leadership ROI?
Across four value categories. One: CEO time recovered, typically 10 to 15 hours per week at the effective hourly rate. Two: decisions made that were previously stuck, multiplied by the impact per decision. Three: revenue preserved from operational failures avoided. Four: growth enabled by the capability that fractional leadership unlocks. Add the four. Subtract the engagement cost. The result is rarely close to break-even.
