Its not how I have done it but there are some similarities, I suggest to
my client that they set my fee.
This is a wide field, it seems

Chuni, I might add – that in talking with the client I find that the
following questions can be helpful.
1) How much is it worth to you to achieve the goal you have indicated
(whatever that might have been)?
2) How much would it cost to achieve that goal using any other approach
you can think of (just to create perspective)?
Of course if they don’t think it is worth anything there might be some
question as to Why bother? Or if they can think of a more economical way
to achieve their intentions – Go for it!

Chuni – I think it depends totally on the client and the situation. When
I do something like an OSONOS I simply attempt to cover costs. Most
recently with the OSONOS by the Sea (well not that recently as that was
3 years ago) the fee was $25. That paid for space and coffee/donuts. A
local church provided the space, and all meals and accommodations were
handled by the individual participants. Actually we ran a considerable
surplus. So with the surplus, I doubled the Church’s fee, as it was
ridiculously low, and then sent $500 to the Access Queen. However if we
were talking about a major corporation holding a serious working
conference (2 ½ days) on a critical issue the money can and (I think)
should be equally serious. Of course it is all coming out of a common
corporate pot, but in a recent case I think it probably came out to
$1500-2000 per participant. For whatever it is worth, I’ve never had an
argument with anybody in terms of the value received. For the
corporation the tab was probably close to $450,000, but considering what
they achieved, and compared to how much it could have cost had they done
it any other way (traditional committees over a year or two) – that
price was bargain basement LOW.
Any help?

Hello All,
I'd like to find out if anyone has charged the attendees for coming to
the OS convening.
If so, how do you do it? On what basis do you determine the fees?
Thank you.
