Design Services Review from Guy Campo
We are extremely pleased with KEXINO's design of our hospital's website. From the initial consultation to the final launch, their team demonstrated exceptional creativity, professionalism, and attention to detail. They took the time to understand our goals and translated them into a visually appealing, user-friendly, and functional website that perfectly represents our brand.
KEXINO's approach to responsive design ensures our site looks and performs flawlessly on all devices, providing an excellent user experience for our patients and visitors. The seamless integration of key features, such as appointment scheduling and patient portals, has greatly enhanced our online services, making it easier for users to access vital information.
Their expertise in healthcare-specific design considerations, including accessibility and HIPAA compliance, was evident throughout the project. We highly recommend KEXINO to any healthcare provider looking for a modern, professional, and effective online presence.

Gabe Ewing del Rio's Review Sourced from Google
We brought them a $25k starter project and they wouldn’t even give us a proposal. They only want large government contracts that should probably be done with some other company who will do so more efficiently, and save all of our tax dollars. The representative was nonresponsive and offputting. Snobby.

How much do business consulting services in the US cost?
Business consulting fees vary based on experience level, firm size, and project complexity. General management consulting hourly rates range from $75 for less experienced consultants to $175-$325 for those with 15+ years of experience.
According to Consulting Success's 2023 survey of nearly 1,000 consultants, 29% of consultants use hourly rates as their primary pricing model. McKinsey senior partners charge $1,193.57 per hour according to the 2024 General Services Administration federal supply lists, while engagement managers cost $834.40 per hour.
Common pricing models include:

Should I hire a large consulting firm or a boutique agency?
The choice between the two depends on your specific needs, budget, and project scope.
Type of firmÂ
ExpertiseÂ
Why to hire it
Large consulting firmÂ
Extensive global resourcesÂ
Deep industry expertise across multiple sectorsÂ
Established methodologies
Ability to deploy large teams for complex, multi-faceted engagementsÂ

Global reach
Recognized brand credibility for stakeholder buy-inÂ
Boutique consulting agencyÂ

Specialized niche expertise
Greater flexibility in engagement models

According to Mordor Intelligence, large enterprises accounted for 71.29%Â of 2024 consulting spend, yet small and medium-sized enterprises are projected to record the fastest growth at 7.04% CAGR through 2030, driven by fractional consulting models and subscription-based advisory.Â
How long do business consulting projects usually take?
Project timelines vary significantly based on scope, complexity, and organizational readiness.Â
Quick diagnostic assessments and targeted analyses typically take 2-6 weeks.
Standard strategy development, operational improvement, or organizational design projects generally require 2-4 months.
Large-scale transformation initiatives, including digital transformation, M&A integration, or enterprise-wide change programs, often span 6-18 months or longer.
According to McKinsey research, only 30% of transformation efforts succeed overall, with digital transformations being even more challenging, often requiring sustained commitment over multiple years.
What is the typical consulting process?
Most consulting engagements follow a structured methodology designed to ensure thorough analysis and actionable outcomes.
The typical process includes:
Discovery and analysis: Understanding your business context, gathering data, conducting stakeholder interviews, and diagnosing root causes
Strategy development: Synthesizing findings, developing options, and creating strategic recommendations aligned with your objectives
Recommendations presentation: Delivering insights and proposed solutions with supporting rationale and expected outcomes
Implementation support: Assisting with execution, change management, and overcoming organizational barriers
Performance review: Measuring results against objectives, refining approaches, and ensuring sustainable impact
According to Consulting Success, 51% of consultants using value-based fees have an average project value of $10,000 or more, compared to 39% of consultants using hourly fees.
