| Small Business Mentoring Service (SBMS) is a not-for-profit Association. As the Mentors give their time for free we are able to hold our program costs to an affordable rate that is used to cover the cost of administration and any of the Mentor’s out-of-pocket expenses.
The program costs are as follows and include GST.
BAP-4 $300 for 4 sessions (recommended)
BAP-3 $240 for 3 sessions
BAP-2 $180 for 2 sessions
BAP-1 $95 for a single session
Ongoing Mentoring $75 per session
For information on what happens in each of the sessions click here.
In addition to the program cost shown above, SBMS policy entitles Mentors to charge you directly for reimbursement of travel over 40km return (the first 40km return is included within the prices above). SBMS's current maximum rate is 76 cents /km (including GST). Within this, each mentor can set their own policy which is shown in their C.V. on the website. So, if appropriate, please discuss this with your Mentor when setting up the first meeting. If long distances are involved, consider minimising any travel charges by perhaps meeting half way.
Note: There is no additional charge should you wish to change a Mentor. You pay for the number of mentoring sessions regardless of who the Mentors are. |
