No surprises.
No hidden
anything.
We believe you should know exactly what you're paying and exactly what you're getting. Your rate stays locked until your scope changes. You hear from Montanna directly — same business day, every time.
You're buying time with someone who
actually knows what to do with it.
Every retainer gives you a block of senior-level HR hours each month — yours to direct however your business needs. Policy work, compliance questions, a tricky employee situation, a payroll issue you just discovered. You set the priorities. We execute. While Montanna leads every client engagement directly, select administrative and research support runs behind the scenes so nothing falls through the cracks. We work with businesses of all sizes — from solo founders making their first hire to established organizations with complex multi-state needs. We also accept project-based work alongside our retainer clients, whether that's a quick one-time need or a longer extended engagement. No retainer required to start.
On-demand access to senior HR expertise for businesses with occasional needs. Quick questions, compliance checks, a document review — you direct the time.
Consistent access to senior HR expertise for businesses that need a steady partner. Policy work, compliance, hiring support, employee questions — whatever your month brings.
For teams that need a steady partner to keep things moving across multiple priorities — troubleshooting, building, reviewing, or planning. Hours are yours to direct.
Space to work across multiple projects simultaneously — strategic, operational, and everything in between. You're securing time with someone who steps in wherever you need and keeps momentum going.
Full-scale partnership for organizations with active people operations, internal HR staff, or leadership teams needing ongoing guidance. From tactical execution to executive advising — you bring the goals, we work through them with you.
Retainers are prepaid monthly or billed twice a month — whichever works best for your business.
Your rate doesn't change until your scope changes. No surprise increases, no annual bumps without a conversation first.
We work month to month. We ask for 30 days notice to end services to allow for a proper transition and documentation handoff.
Commit longer.
Pay a little less.
For clients who know they're in it for the long haul, we offer a small discount on prepaid commitments. Both options lock in your current rate for the full term — no increases, no surprises. Maximum discount of $500 for 6-month and $1,500 for 12-month commitments.
Not ready for a retainer?
That's fine too.
