So have been approached few weeks back by an analyst wanting to discuss general trends and how I feel about ER&D consulting business that I have part of in the past.
I would have gladly spilled the beans and ranted for a few hours on the subject.
But wasn't quite sure what to charge so asked him if I can get questions in advance before call(to know if I can bill those hours also) and what is the range he has on offer.
Rate came quite low at €100/h so considering the risks and effort decided it was not worth it.
Has anyone done this and managed to get a decent rate? They seem to usually commit to an initial call but I would assume it could be re-occurring once they have to review their positions at different milestones. Do you get payed for preparation or only the call part where they ambush you with questions?
