No Fluff, Just Clarity
Where Do We Start? You have three options for working with Storms Consulting. We recommend starting with Step 1.
STEP 1: THE DIAGNOSIS (Start Here) The $1,500 Talent Pipeline Audit (One-Time Fee) Investment: $1,500 (Flat Fee) Before we implement a strategy, we need to find out exactly what's broken. This one-time audit is a low-risk way to get a high-value blueprint for fixing your sourcing and attraction strategy. What you get: A comprehensive 10-page report, including an audit of your job descriptions, a competitor talent map, and the estimated annual cost of your current leaks. The Outcome: We identify the problem. If you love the diagnosis, we move to the implementation phase (Step 2). If not, you walk away with the blueprint.
STEP 2: RETAINER BLOCKS
1. The STRATEGY BLOCK (15 Hours) Best for: Steady pipeline maintenance and teams that need strategic guidance for 1-2 key roles.
Investment: $2,250 / month (15 hours @ $150/hr)
What's Covered: Regular sourcing sprints, targeted candidate outreach, bi-weekly strategy calls, and brand/job description audits.
The Rule: Unused hours do not roll over. We use them proactively to build your talent bench.
2. The GROWTH BLOCK (30 Hours) Best for: Aggressive scaling when you need candidates NOW for multiple urgent, hard-to-fill roles.
Investment: $4,500 / month (30 hours @ $150/hr)
What's Covered: Deep-dive headhunting, competitor talent mapping, full outreach campaign management, and being your tactical advisor on the hunt.
STEP 3: FULL-CYCLE RECRUITMENT
Best for: When you want to hand over the keys and just meet the finalists.
Investment: Custom Quote
How it works: Through my strategic partnership with RCI, we offer full-desk recruiting. I handle the strategy and brand alignment; my partner handles the volume, scheduling, and offers.
STEP 4: ADDITIONAL SERVICES
1. Media Buying & Strategic Placement (Your In-House Agency)
You need job ads to go where the talent actually looks, and you need someone to manage the spend. If you want us to handle the purchasing and strategic placement of your job advertising, we act as your agency.
Investment: Cost of Media + Industry Standard Mark-up of 15%
What's Covered: We manage all placement and optimization for third-party media purchases, including: LinkedIn Ads, Indeed sponsorships, paid social boosting, niche job boards, print, radio, multi-media, etc.
The Markup: The 15% management fee covers the strategic placement, invoicing administration, liability, and ongoing optimization of the campaigns to ensure your spend is working as hard as possible.
The Rule: The media cost is entirely separate from your monthly retainer hours. Your retainer hours are spent on strategy and sourcing; the management fee covers the execution of the ads.
2. Full-Cycle Recruitment (The Heavy Lift)
Investment: Custom Quote
How it works: When you need someone to handle the scheduling, interviews, offer letters, and background checks, we turn to our preferred partner to provide full-desk recruiting. I ensure the strategy is sound; my partner handles the volume and administration.
