Has anyone worked on a outsourced GC model. Where for a monthly payment you do effectively unlimited work for them? I hate billable hours and prefer fixed monthly retainers.

The obvious concern is workload but it can work with a lot of communication and management of expectations

You also have to have a firm line around what you do and do not handle, both as an issue of what you practice and as an issue of what falls in that flat fee.

I do this with a few clients. I position it as a subscription service. I don't advertise that I offer this arrangement publicly but offer it to clients once I get a sense of how we work together and how they will navigate and deal with professional boundaries. Generally, it has been a win-win arrangement for me and my participating clients but I could also see it quickly going south with the wrong client who thinks they have essentially hired a 40 hour/week in-house counsel.
