Short-term consulting project compensation

Short-term consulting project compensation

Yesenia153·Nov 02·3 replies

Hi, I was recently offered two options at a seed-stage startup. I could either take a full time offer (Head of growth & product marketing a) or a short-term consulting gig through the end of December, helping to develop their go-to-market strategy and launch of this startup's product. My question is, does anyone have any advice about compensation for the consulting gig? is the standard practice to simply pro-rate my ideal annual salary? or is better to set an hourly rate? Also, I assume the consulting gig doesn't come with benefits, but also wanted to check on that. Any advice would be much appreciated
