transparent and flexible pricing tailored to your needs
at purple otter, we understand that every project and client is unique. our rates and fees are designed to reflect the customized nature of consultancy in climate, nature, and social impact, offering value and flexibility as we work together to achieve your goals.
how we price our services
-
project-based fees:
for clearly defined projects with specific deliverables, we offer bespoke quotes tailored to the scope, complexity, and timeline. -
retainers and ongoing support:
for clients needing continuous advisory or engagement, we can agree on fixed monthly retainers ensuring responsive and prioritized support. -
workshops and facilitation:
pricing for workshops, training, and facilitation is typically based on session length and preparation requirements. -
other arrangements:
we are open to discussing alternative pricing models that suit your budget and objectives.
about daily and hourly rates
while some clients request daily or hourly rates for budgeting transparency, we prefer to focus on the value delivered rather than time alone. if needed, we can provide indicative day rates during project scoping, but final pricing is always based on agreed deliverables and outcomes.
why we don’t list fixed rates online
consultancy in climate, biodiversity, and social impact involves varied and often complex challenges. pre-listing rigid rates can lead to misunderstandings or underestimating project needs. by discussing your exact requirements, we ensure pricing is fair, transparent, and aligned with your project’s ambitions and context.
