The PSMM is a community project. It's Free.

Believe it or not folks, I've received 2 emails now asking me to shut down my project and my blog.

Apparently there are companies that exist just to assess the maturity of Professional Service firms.  Guess what?  You guessed it, they charge a fee.

The PSMM is a free, community-driven, project designed by the professional services community, and for the professional services community.  Here's why:  every, and I mean every, professional services firm is uniquely different.  Only you know the best actions (protocols) to take to improve the maturity of your firm.  I would suggest to you that you are wasting money by having someone else (who doesn't know your business, doesn't know your capabilities, and doesn't know your clients) assess and make recommendations for your professional services business.

The idea behind the PSMM is to be a community driven project with many different types of firms submitting many different protocols.  These protocols would then be available for your review, and you can decide which protocols make sense for your business.

To your maturity - Mitch Loder
