I am going to start my own ict bussiness in a couple of months.
I have noticed that a lot of the local companies don't have formal policies on internet, email, downloading usage, and the current it-consultants are not aware or implementing this at x company, so I think I have found a niche market here. I have found some templates that I am planning to adapt and to use but how much should I charge for this. Since it's a long term benefit for the company I am hesitant to charge my hourly rate, but at the same time I can not charge like $10000 else they may do the research themself and I have priced myself out of this project. Any thought on how I should handle this ?
what are your tactics and price strategy on this ?

regards

Leopold

Because it's considered too expensive to implement them. It's just cheaper to take the slight loss and have the staff happy.

But from previous experience I have found that prices always rely on the individual company. Some who should know better are unwilling to spend the $ required to do things like this and then others who can not afford to do. ;)

I think you'll find that none of the existing consultants offer this service because there is no Long Term Employment Prospects or Money in it.
