Ron Baker, a renowned expert on value pricing and subscription models for professionals, comes back to the show for a lively discussion on LinkedIn. We dive deep into the pitfalls of cost accounting and timesheets, particularly in the context of legal and professional services.

We explore how professionals can better manage their teams, pricing strategies, and client relationships without relying on outdated metrics.
