I want to create a concise answer to the question of what do we charge. You mention two things and I can't reconcile them. Either "set a Predictable Minimum Annual Recurring Revenue and honor it for all clients" or "use an annual fee of ____ % of their net worth or assets". These seem very different. I'm fine with charging an initial one-time separate $2500 fee for creating the plan. But on going do I charge a Predictable Minimum Annual Recurring Revenue or % of assets/net worth for the 10 deliverables/3 meeting annual on-going process.

In the interest of simplicity of you and for them, you may prefer to charge a flat annual fee instead a % of assets or net worth.
