can you remember doing business before cell phones or social media? you really don’t have to be too old to remember because change happens fast. in fact, if you are over 50, you probably remember when every home had a landline, firms advertised in the yellow pages, and accountants charged hourly for mundane compliance tasks.

pricing, fees & billing rates

stop selling time

if you’re billing by the hour, you’re selling yourself short.

radical pricing – by the radical cpa

amazing things happen when you stop thinking about what you’re selling and focus on what clients are buying.

many of the things clients don’t value are compliance-related like:

  • tax returns
  • payroll
  • accounting services

pricing, fees & billing rates

why pricing is so disruptive

kick familiar to the curb and get paid what you’re worth.

by jody padar
radical pricing  – by the radical cpa

the familiar is always more comfortable than something new. shifting your pricing model is bound to be disruptive because the billable hour is what we know and have always known. it is the default billing model of every new firm. it’s comfortable, familiar, embedded in our dna and seems like the easiest billing solution.

certainly, there are some pros to billing by the hour. profits remain relatively stable. if you work 40 hours, you know you’re going to bill and hopefully be paid for those 40 hours. there’s a clarity and certainty to it. but there are only so many hours in a week. by embracing the billable hour, you’re putting a profit ceiling on your firm.

pricing, fees & billing rates

the radical pricing model: start with $25k

deliver more value to clients while freeing your team from timesheets.

by jody padar
the radical cpa

consider the $25k rule.

because this method requires heavy lifting on the front end, a good rule of thumb is to only value-price engagements of $25,000 or more. if the client falls below $25,000, they are eligible for a fixed price or fixed price plus a value add. this rule is important because if your client is a small business, it doesn’t matter how much value they perceive in your services; they will not be able to afford value pricing above a certain level.

most services are fixed-priced, but based on conversations with the client, those prices may drop or be raised accordingly. some of the data points used to set pricing are the pita factor (pain in the a#%) and the client’s gross revenue.
