Advice

One-to-one advice, consulting and training

My remote one-to-one advising, consulting and training services are particularly popular with business and marketing professionals looking for efficient support. Pick my brain on one subject you are interested in. After a session, I can offer ongoing support and consulting services. If you are interested in an explainer video for your business, I can advice on the whole production process and different options. If you are a music artist or a band, I can give you basic advice on creating a simple animated music video for your song. Having created 10 animated music videos with many film festival awards, I can share some of the things I have learned in the process.

Rates

As a guideline the hourly rate is £75 (online only). New clients must book a minimum of two hours for the first creative coaching session.

Payment

You will be sent an invoice to be paid before the first session.

Payment can be made by PayPal, as long as the fees are covered by the client. Details will be on the invoice. All paid invoices will receive a receipt. This is the recommended option in your are not UK based.

Bank transfer is another option, as long as fees are covered by the client. If you are based in the UK, payments will be faster provided your bank is part of the Faster Payments Service and can send Faster Payments.

Scheduling

To book a session, please use the chat window or email me at [email protected] to discuss a suitable date and time. Since my main business is animation production, I don’t have an automated booking system for advice and training sessions yet. In a rush? You can always ask just in case I happen to be available on the day.

To ensure I can prepare for the session, please let me know when booking which topic you are interested in. There is not enough time to cover multiple topics in one hour, so they need to be booked as separate sessions. Depending on how busy my schedule is, the exact date and time you want your session may not be available. One-to-one sessions can usually be booked for between 10 AM and 4 PM UK (London) time.

Terms

Scheduled sessions cannot be cancelled or re-scheduled. There is no money-back if you miss a session, show up late or can’t make it. Because I am self-employed and when I make time for and plan for a one-to-one session, I have to reschedule other project work in my busy schedule, so I can’t have clients cancelling or changing the date or time for a booked session.

Creative services?

If you are actually looking to hire me for my creative services such as animated video production, whiteboard videos, design, illustration or problem solving, then please use the contact form below instead, as I don’t do creative work or support work on an hourly basis, only one-to-one advice and training.
