      Starfish helped us create our new brand, including a new logo, brand identity and brand guidelines as well as a new company culture (vision, mission, values, and behaviors).

      We like to think that we do a lot of things well here at Chicago Tube and Iron. However ERP implementations are not one of our core competencies. So when it was time to change our ERP system, we knew we needed help, and help we received once we partnered with Ultra Consultants. They guided us the whole way from A to Z, and got us over the finish line despite several obstacles including a global pandemic. Thank you Ultra Consultants!

      Branding Review from Shira S

      We partnered with Agency Squid to refine and elevate our brand identity for a SaaS platform in the B2B space. Operating in a competitive landscape, we needed strong positioning, messaging clarity, and a compelling visual presence to stand out. From the very beginning, the Agency Squid team demonstrated a deep understanding of our market, challenges, and goals. They asked the right questions, offered valuable strategic insights, and walked us through a structured branding process that was both collaborative and efficient. The outcome was a refreshed brand strategy that clearly communicates our core value, differentiators, and relevance to our target audience. We received high-impact messaging frameworks and creative assets that are now integrated into our website, sales materials, and marketing campaigns. What we appreciated most was their thoughtful, ego-free approach and consistent responsiveness. Every milestone was met on time, and they were always open to feedback, ensuring we were aligned throughout the project. This branding work has already improved our sales conversations, marketing performance, and overall brand perception. It was a seamless and professional experience, and were excited to continue working with Agency Squid in the future.

      Agency Squid is truly unlike any other ad agency out there. There is no ego involved and they listen to what their clients needs are while still challenging them to think about things differently. The smaller but mighty team is well rounded and each bring a different perspective to the table. I would recommend them for any design/marketing, product promotion or special project. Doesn’t hurt that their workplace is so cool too!

      Sean Busch's Review Sourced from Google

      Stuart and his team are very impressive to work with. We came to them with a concept and very preliminary (Kindergarten-level) drawings. They were able to take that plan and deliver something market ready in a few short meetings. They also helped with the supplier meetings to ensure tolerances, resin mixtures, and other details we had no idea about - were done to the level we were expecting. The end result was a physical product that carried two patents (which they helped with, too) and something truly innovative to an otherwise mature, sleepy category. I was very impressed by how the Prime Studio team worked and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. In fact, I've referred a few people there way already.

      As co-Founder and former CEO of Welly, I can highly recommend Prime Studio as a product design partner. They worked seemlessly with our team and creative agency partner to ideate, develop options and ultimately decide on our final product and packaging design. They sought to understand our strategy and the essence of the brand in their process. I also appreciated that while we had a point person from their team to support our day-to-day efforts that they always found ways to gather ideas from their broader team to optimize the overall design. Finally, they worked closely with our manufacturing partners to ensure the design went from drawing to a physical product flawlessly. We would not have had the success we had without their partnership and support.

Throughout our partnership, Prime Studio consistently demonstrated exceptional professionalism and expertise. Their team was highly knowledgeable, responsive, and dedicated to delivering high-quality results. Prime Studio's innovative approach and attention to detail significantly contributed to the success of our projects. They were always willing to go the extra mile to ensure that our goals were met and that the end client received the best possible outcomes. We highly recommend Prime Studio to any organization looking for a reliable and skilled partner for branding and product experience. Their commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction is truly commendable.

      Hiring OVO to help drive the rebranding efforts for our business that was recently acquired was one of the best business decisions I have made in my 25+ years as a marketing professional! After an international search, OVO stood out for their strategic, collaborative and experienced approach. We are a niche B2B solutions company with a complicated business model. The team at OVO were quick to understand our unique challenges, they expertly guided us through a renaming process and simplified how we communicate our value to the market. Our new company now has a strong foundation and strategy that will fuel the growth that we seek. This was clearly the best agency hire and I highly recommend them!

      I just wanted to let you know how pleased we are with our experience with OVO. Rebranding can be a daunting project. Picking a partner to help you through the process is like handing your baby over to a stranger. OVO’s expertise and insights made us confident that we made the right choice. As we went through the process, your team continually impressed us with elegant and concise approaches in each of the many stages. You listened and created an end product that was truly “us”. We could not be happier. The results have brought many compliments from existing clients and partners, and have yielded more positive results from prospective clients

      I have used Mejix for several projects in recent years. From simple content websites to complex e-commerce sites. I am incredibly happy with the way their work always comes out. They have always been a pleasure to deal with. On my recent project I worked with Dan and he was just great! I highly recommend using them from the very beginning as they have a vast and diverse expertise.

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:

Pricing model  Description  Typical range 
Hourly rate  Charged per hour worked $75-$300+ per hour 
Daily rate  Hourly rate multiplied by working hours  $1,500-$3,000+ per day 
Project-based  Fixed fee for defined scope  $10,000-$500,000+ 
Retainer  Monthly fee for ongoing access  $2,500-$25,000+ per month 
Value-based  Fee tied to outcomes delivered  Varies by engagement 

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 firm  Expertise  Why to hire it
Large consulting firm 
  • Extensive global resources 
  • Deep industry expertise across multiple sectors 
  • Established methodologies
  • Ability to deploy large teams for complex, multi-faceted engagements 
  • Broad capabilities 
  • Global reach
  • Recognized brand credibility for stakeholder buy-in 
Boutique consulting agency 
  • More personalized attention
  • Specialized niche expertise
  • Greater flexibility in engagement models
  • More competitive pricing
  • Deep specialization
  • Hands-on partner attention
  • More cost-effective engagement structure

According to Mordor Intelligence, large enterprises accounted for 71.29% 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. 

How long do business consulting projects usually take?

Project timelines vary significantly based on scope, complexity, and organizational readiness. 

  • 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:

  1. Discovery and analysis: Understanding your business context, gathering data, conducting stakeholder interviews, and diagnosing root causes
  2. Strategy development: Synthesizing findings, developing options, and creating strategic recommendations aligned with your objectives
  3. Recommendations presentation: Delivering insights and proposed solutions with supporting rationale and expected outcomes
  4. Implementation support: Assisting with execution, change management, and overcoming organizational barriers
  5. 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.
