“Hiring Megan from Olivine’s Marketplace has been a great experience. She was quickly able to jump in and start providing value immediately. Megan spearheaded many aspects of the launch and communicated effectively throughout each phase of execution. The partnership has been going so well we recently decided to expand her hours. The consultants in Olivine Marketplace are well vetted and experts in their space.”

The Fine Print
-
Each consultant sets their own hourly rate. The minimum retainer engagement is 5 hours per week for 3 months, but you can scale up for as much as you need. All plans are based on 4.33 weeks in a month.
For example, a consultant at $150/hour for 10 hours a week:
$150 * 10 * 4.33 = $6,495 per month
$6,495 * 3 months = $19,485 minimum engagement
-
Invoiced monthly upfront with Net 30 days. 3-month minimum commitment with automatic month-to-month renewal. 30-day written cancellation notice.
-
The specific scope of work will be determined by the startup’s needs and the specific expertise of the consultant. We do have a list of recommended product marketing tasks.
-
If you choose to hire your consultant in-house to become an employee, Olivine bills for a recruiting referral fee of 15% of the first year’s salary.
-
We recommend tracking tasks for your PMM consultant in a project management tool such as Asana.
-
Response times, scheduling availability, sick days, and backup coverage is figured out between the startup and the consultant, though we can make standard recommendations.
-
If you’re not happy with the quality of work or availability of your consultant, Olivine will help you find a new consultant that’s a better fit at no extra cost.
