FREELANCE KANSAS
The Work
Every engagement is scoped based on the problem we're solving, not the number of hours involved.
Most of my work is structured around defined outcomes, clear deliverables and a set timeline. This keeps the work focused, as predictable as possible and aligned with your actual goals.
Messaging & Narrative Systems
Typically $2,500-$7,500 depending on scope.
Strategic Audits
Typically ranges from $1,500-$4,000.
Advisory Engagements
Monthly retainers starting at $1,000.
The FLK
Referral Bonus Program
Know someone who could use affordable, honest marketing support from a fellow business owner? If you refer them and they sign a contract for services, you get 5% of the total contract value paid to you up front, in cash. It's that simple!
I take recommendations seriously and am willing to put real money on the table to make that clear.
