Pillar 02

Public pricing

Consulting

Think and advise.
The pillar
Consulting is the room before the work starts. Bring us a decision, a brand that needs direction, a launch that needs a plan, a team that needs an outside eye, and we work it through with you: what to build, what to skip, what it should cost, and who should do it. No deliverables required. When you do need the build, Studio picks it up without a handoff.
Engagement model
01

Hourly

Advisory sessions on the clock

Advisory sessions on the clock. Bring a decision, a plan, or a problem and we work it through with you in the room.

Best for a single decision or a second opinion

  • Booked by the hour, agenda set in advance
  • Notes and recommendations after each session
  • No deliverable obligation
02

Retainer

Ongoing advisory relationship

An ongoing advisory relationship, a standing outside perspective on the work as it happens, not after it ships.

Best for teams making continuous creative calls

  • Recurring sessions at a set cadence
  • Async access between sessions
  • Quarterly direction review
03

Public pricing

Transparent rates, no mystery

Our advisory rates are published. You know the cost before the conversation starts.

Best for anyone tired of quote-by-email

  • Rates listed, not negotiated per client
  • No scoping call required to see pricing
  • Same rate whether you are a startup or a holding company
04

Consultation-first

Every engagement starts with a fit check

Every engagement starts with a free fit check. We tell you whether advisory is what you need, or whether you need the build instead.

Best for Best as the first step, always

  • 15 minutes, no cost
  • An honest read on fit and scope
  • A recommended engagement model in writing

The Philadelphia Transit Authority
