Clients pay retainer fees up front. Generally, a consultant will ask for 100 percent of the retainer fee in advance. Some consultants set it up so a client pays retainer fees at periodic intervals, such as monthly, quarterly or semiannually. In that case, the client would pay a portion of the total retainer fee at each billing cycle. For example, if a consultant offers a retainer package for $4,000 annually and sets up a quarterly payment schedule for the client, the client would pay $1,000 every three months.
