Why can't I go direct to a supplier?
You absolutely can! Using a consultancy doesn't prohibit you from dealing with your supplier as well. Using a consultant to arrange your contracts and manage your bills allows you be kept aware of which suppliers are competitive at any given time, as well as having people on hand to deal with queries on your behalf, rather than you being stuck on hold trying to solve problems yourself.
How are you paid?
Depending on the work that you require, most of the time your final price includes any commission to be paid. This is paid directly to your supplier, who then pay us. If you have specialist sitework or portfolio management, you may have a different arrangement in place which will be made clear to you in advance of any agreements being signed.
