Bite-sized Consulting and In-House Classes

If you don’t need a full-blown consulting relationship, you can buy single days and break that day into 8 1-hour remote sessions (which can be combined) or use it as a single on-site day. You can also use these hours for classes for 10 or fewer studeents, so if you’d rather a handful of short roll-your-own classes instead of full-or-half-day sessions, this is the option for you. There’s a 10% discount when you purchase 2 or more days. I’m happy to invoice you if an e-payment doesn’t work, but at this discounted rate, I can’t start work until the payment has been received.

Use the sessions for:

• Ad-hoc executive coaching and advice. Build software better!
• Classes (with ten or fewer students—add additional students for $99/hour/student). You can choose from the catalog or we can custom-build classes for you.
• Hiring help.
• Mob/Ensemble Programming coaching.
• Guided Event-Storming sessions.
• Organizational assessment and advice.
• Architectural assessment and advice.
• And more! (set up a Zoom chat to discuss other options).

The Fine Print

• We can, of course, invoice you against a Purchase Order in the traditional way if paying by credit card isn’t an option. Please get in touch with us to arrange the details.
• This rate assumes payment in full in advance and is discounted by 10% accordingly. If you prefer terms of net-14 from the first session, our undiscounted rate is $8,000/day.
• We offer an additional 10% discount if you buy two or more days. If you pay with the “Add to cart” option, this discount is built into the shopping cart.
• This rate covers classes with 10 or fewer students. For larger classes, add 1 “hour” for each cohort of 10. For example, a class of 11-20 requires two “hours” purchased for each actual hour of class. A class of 21-30 requires 3 hours purchased for each actual hour of class.
• Schedule sessions at https://calendly.com/allenholub.
• Ongoing relationships often start with an organizational assessment.
• Payment must be made via the checkout process on this page or, if invoiced, in US Dollars by EFT, ACH, or equivalent. Banking information is specified on the invoice or on request. We do not accept paper checks.
• If travel is required, we bill for business-class airfare (first class if business is not available) and a per diem for one day longer than the length of the engagement. The amount per diem varies depending on the city. For international travel (outside the US and Canada), we have a 3-day billing minimum, even if we work fewer days (unless we already happen to be nearby for other reasons). For on-site work, we do not break up the “day” into hours. A day is a day.
• Cancellation: Payments are not refundable, but you may reschedule without penalty, our schedule permitting. There may be additional airfare costs for on-site jobs. If we must cancel, we will reschedule at the first mutually acceptable date. If you cancel an on-site engagement, you must reimburse us for any airfare or other out-of-pocket expenses already incurred.
• Acceptance: A letter of agreement or email, issuance of a PO, or payment in whole or part constitutes acceptance of this agreement.
