Fees and Charges

Geoff charges an economic hourly rate for his services. This is calculated on the basis of the types of services being provided and the likely extent of this work, whether it is strictly a "one off" casual assignment or is a longer term retainer agreement.

Because Geoff works from his home base, his administration charges are lower than city offices, and he is able to pass this saving on to clients.

Business incidentals such as postage, stationery, parking, and local travel are all charged at cost, and all suppliers'charges are passed directly to the client for direct payment. This means printing, website hosting, website structural development, electronic charges etc are all billed direct to the client ensuring no mark ups, no percentage margins, no commissions and totally transparent accounting.

As much of the political lobby work often associated with public relations programmes needed to be conducted within Parliament in Wellington, Geoff has a Wellington Associate who is engaged from time to time for client assignments. His invoice is also passed direct to the client for payment.
