What is a retainer?

We offer monthly retainer plans. A retainer purchases monthly hours in advance in exchange for our lowest hourly fee. It guarantees a certain amount of our business management time during the course of the month as well as entitles the client to priority scheduling.

Retainer clients can think ahead as far as what their administrative needs might be and plan accordingly so that we can develop a nice and even work flow.
