As an ethical business, we want to be as open and transparent as possible about what we offer, our level of experience and what our services will cost.
Pricing & Rating
We won’t charge different rates depending on who you work with at PA Cooperative, as all our staff are highly experienced and professionally recognised. We won’t settle for anything less, and we wouldn’t ask you to either.
Of course, the total costs for any piece of work depend on what you’re looking for and the level of activity involved – so this is a general guide. We believe it’s both competitive and value for money. To get an accurate idea of what we can do for you and how much it is likely to cost, contact us and we can talk in detail about your needs.
Long-term work
Our preferred method is to work with you on an ongoing basis for a pre-agreed number of days based on your requirements for our services.
This helps us to understand your business, and its needs, in more detail – particularly how to help you develop effective relationships with important stakeholders.
Long-term contracts mean we can offer daily rates that are the most cost-effective for our clients. It cuts down on our administrative costs as well and that is reflected in the price; no account management fee is charged.
Our minimum monthly contract is for 2 days at £80 an hour, or £600 per day. That means £1,200 per month plus any expenses at cost plus VAT charged at the standard rate.
We will invoice you monthly with 15-day terms for payment. Long-term contracts are typically for 12 months with a three-month ‘break’ period.

For crisis management, such as dealing with a situation requiring intensive media relations support over a weekend, the minimum time we will invoice is for 1.5 days. This will be billed at £110 an hour giving a day rate of £825 plus VAT, with a 5% account management fee in addition to this.
Services such as photography, video content or any else supplied via a third party will be charged separately and only with the client’s written agreement.
Before any work is done, you will be sent a contract with clear terms and conditions for doing business with us.
