Consulting fees?

I will be doing a sales consulting project for a small HVAC company in the next few weeks but am having trouble figuring out what to chage him.

My job as a consultent with him will be to put together a plan to raise income from service contracts to 120k annualy and train him andhis reps in how to sell these service contracts. He wants me to design NOT implement this plan for him and we have agreed to do this on a project basis not hourly. I will be at his disposal for questions and concerns and advise after he implements the plan as well as retraining him and his reps when needed untill he acheives his goal or for 6 months, which ever comes first. The other condition is that he is entitled to a max of 6 hours per week of my time regarless of the method of time spent, ie. phone, in person, or research and analysis with report.

My question again is what would the correct % to charge him be for gaining him 120k annually with the unlimited potential for future orders be?

10%

Whatever. Had you done your research and read some books, you would not need to ask what percentage to charge. I have a feeling you will be asking another question about consulting. So instead of asking DO YOUR HOMEWORK!!!! Report It

Do your homework and research what your fee structure should be. Here are some books to purchase on amazon.com which will point you in the right direction. Much Much Success!
