Who Pays for Expenses When I Hire a Consultant?

* From  Date: Tuesday, February 27 2007

Beyond the consultant’s fee are various expenses that he or she may incur.

Such expenses could include:

  • Transportation
  • Telephone
  • Equipment expenses

Discuss these in advance so they do not surprise you when they appear on the invoice. You should also find out if the consultant bills by the hour or by the project.
