A price only becomes useful when you know what it buys. A recorded course, a personal coaching session and a workshop built for your team cover different needs. Start with the task you want to improve, then compare the scope and total cost.
Start with what you want to achieve
Write down one useful outcome: a more reliable report, clearer customer replies or a team that can check AI-generated work. Explain what slows you down today, who needs to learn and which tools you already use. You do not need to know the right AI solution before asking for help.
How I quote coaching and training
I recommend an approach after understanding your goals. That might be one-to-one coaching, a team workshop or a separately scoped workflow project. You receive a clear scope and quote before deciding whether to book. Sending an enquiry carries no obligation.
If you prefer to talk first, the 20-minute introductory call is free. You can also send your goals in writing, without providing a budget.
Compare what each quote includes
| Ask about | What to confirm before booking |
|---|---|
| Scope and format | The tasks covered, session count and length, online or in-person delivery, and participant numbers. |
| Preparation | Whether discovery, custom exercises and review of your workflow are included. |
| Practical work | How much time is for practice and feedback, and which prompts, templates or recordings you keep. |
| Support | Whether follow-up is included, for how long, and how you ask questions. |
| Total cost | The currency, GST treatment, travel, tool subscriptions and anything charged separately. |
| Boundaries | What is outside scope, how changes are agreed and the rescheduling terms. |
Choose an approach that fits your situation
Learning for yourself: consider whether you need a structured course or feedback on your own task. A focused coaching session can help you try an approach before committing to ongoing work.
Learning as a team: confirm the group size, approved tools and the examples your team will practise. Compare whole-group cost alongside the support and time each participant receives.
Improving a workflow: distinguish training from implementation. A workshop teaches skills; connecting systems, building an automation and maintaining it need their own scope.
Decide how you will measure value
Record the time and quality of a task before changing it, then review them after a trial. Include time spent checking output, subscriptions and implementation costs. Released time is not necessarily cash saved, and no particular result is guaranteed.
The time-back calculator can help you explore an illustrative scenario. Use your own measurements when deciding whether an engagement is worthwhile.
Before you decide
- Name the outcome and the task you want to improve.
- Compare scope and inclusions, alongside the total price.
- Confirm what you keep and what support is available.
- Start with a manageable trial and measure the result.

Why do quotes vary?
Session length, group size, preparation, delivery format and follow-up affect the scope. Confirm each of these so you can compare equivalent services.
