Why we price by package, not by the hour

Hourly billing misaligns incentives: it rewards slow work and punishes efficiency. Every Kingsley & Mercer engagement is priced as a fixed-fee package with a defined set of deliverables, a published timeline, and a clear handover checkpoint. You know exactly what you are paying before any work begins, and you know exactly what you will receive at the end. Our three tiers — Start, Professional, and Enterprise — correspond to the breadth of the engagement. Start covers a single service line; Professional combines two to three lines into a coherent programme; Enterprise is the full Content Factory build with post-launch monitoring included.

Choose Enterprise

“We chose the Professional tier and it covered everything we needed without paying for services we were not ready to use. The fixed price meant our CFO approved the budget in one conversation — there was no ambiguity about what we were spending. Fourteen weeks later we had a content system that generated more qualified traffic in its first quarter than we had seen in the previous eighteen months.”

Pricing questions answered

Is VAT included in the listed prices?

No. All prices shown are exclusive of Irish VAT at 23%, which is added to the invoice for clients registered in Ireland. EU business clients outside Ireland may be eligible for the reverse-charge mechanism — please confirm your VAT registration number at the time of enquiry.

Can we pay in instalments?

Yes. For the Professional and Enterprise tiers we offer a two-instalment payment schedule: 50% on contract signature and 50% on final handover. The Start tier is invoiced in full at the outset. We accept bank transfer (SEPA) and credit card.

What happens if the scope changes mid-engagement?

We define scope clearly in the engagement contract, including explicit exclusions. If you request additional work beyond the agreed scope, we quote a fixed change-order fee before any additional work begins. We do not retroactively adjust the price for work already in progress.
