Consulting For Everyone
Your timing could not be better if you start consulting today as the new millennium dawns. Consultants are needed in vastly greater numbers than ever before in every area of commercial enterprise.
Consultants are not looked at as mere attenuations of a corporate structure any longer. They are now recognized as being integral to it functioning effectively. If you had started down this path just ten years ago, you would have met resistance in almost every major corporation, enterprise or endeavor.
Not today!
Though consultants have been around for as long as people have been willing to pay for advice, it was during the major downsizing of the corporate world in the 8o's that this profession took on a far more visible presence in every part of business.
You are fortunate to enter this field now because managers and business owners turn to a consultant as frequently as kids turn to MTV; they flick on the remote, sign the contracts for your services, and sit back to enjoy the show!
It wasn't nearly as friendly a field when I started in this business. Owners and managers felt insulted, somehow diminished or inept, if they were forced to turn to me for advice. Other clients, while not feeling diminished, thought that hiring a consultant was a luxury or worse, frivolous. Both groups would invariably 'buck you' all the way since they felt that hiring you was an unspoken admission of failure or a terrible waste of money.
Not so today. When all the downsizing, unemployment, corporate loss and skidding returns on investment rolled through the 1980's, our profession came to be seen as essential and integral.
By 1997, U.S. revenue for consulting was over $23 Billion, which was close to 50% of the world wide total. By 2001 the total reached close to $40 Billion. Yes, "work for hire" consultants have become the mainstay for all levels of business from small chains through mid-sized companies and larger corporations to huge corporate giants, as well as our Military Forces and the U.S. Government.
Consultants are involved, in fact dominate, information technology (IT) projects in almost all Fortune 500 corporations. When Nations Bank announced it would merge with Bank Of America Corporation in 1998, the largest National bank in terms of both deposits and branches was created. Consultants became critical behind-the-scenes partners in consolidating operations and other activities related to the merger. Most people didn't know that it wasn't their friendly neighborhood banker dealing with the transaction when they made their weekly deposits and withdrawals anymore.
I have given you all this background information just to show you that consulting is a booming enterprise. You are entering a field that has metamorphosed into a global requirement for any size of business or endeavor. It is a profession that is accepted fully for its ability to effect change in all manner of enterprise. You can now find yourself in a position of freedom and independence while you greatly influence, direct, and help others to succeed.
A consultant uses all of his talents and abilities. He grows exponentially in his constant effort to find solutions. He's part "old west gunslinger" looking to ferret out the bad guys while the townsfolk cower behind their curtains and also part "knight in shining armor" that rushes in on a steed of dazzling white to extricate failing, or at least faltering, efforts and rescue the damsel of success and achievement.
In the “old days” (pre-1980’s) a consultant worked with the management of a business to improve the profitability of the business. Consultants worked with the top management and were very highly paid individuals;
Some consultants charge $100 or more per hour. Some charge $1,500 per day for their services Some work on an annual retainer fee of $12,000 to over $30,000 per year from any number of large corporations.
And it goes up from there depending on your expertise and the rarity of your knowledge.
As I’ve related this background information on consulting, you may have noticed that I’ve used the masculine pronoun “He”. That’s because it was traditionally a male dominated industry, but it has changed now!
As women have broken through the glass ceiling in almost every industry and enterprise over the last 20 years, so has the consulting business become more accessible to the fairer sex. I wouldn’t dare proffer the case that ANYONE can consult and leave out half of the population!
Until about a decade ago, the title "consultant" was more or less limited to retired diplomats and top corporate officers, recruited more because of their "contacts" rather than their practical knowledge. In other words, until recently, the consultant's position was more honorary than actual. But that has also changed dramatically.
The number of consultants for almost any problem in life has increased tenfold or more during the past ten years and the field of consultants is continuing to grow. In fact, independent consulting is one of the fastest growing businesses in the country today!
Let me give you a simple and easy to understand definition of a consultant:
A consultant is an expert at recognizing problems and shaping solutions to those problems.
The need for problem solvers among large and small businesses worldwide has never been greater. The ever-changing moods of the buyer plus the myriad of crisis situations that business people face almost daily, have created a "seller's market" for the alert consultant.
I have my own company, called “Media Blitz Consulting”, under which Creative Pops is formed. Our function is to guide and direct profitable ventures for those in the performing arts. It’s also a Public Relations company that gets the attention of the media about my artist clients.
I spent over 25 years as a manager in broadcasting before I started as a consultant. This was the basis for my becoming a successful consultant. I learned many things during those years “in the trenches” which were useful for helping others to find solutions to their problems.
What area of work have you been involved in over the years? Remember, you don’t have to have a quarter of a century of work behind you in order to consult.
As you will discover in this book, consultants come in all sizes and with all manner of backgrounds.
I will prove to you that it’s true; anyone (YOU) can consult, using what you already know to help others and make a substantial extra income!
Remember, you can ‘consult’ on any subject that you have top-notch experience in. Maybe you know how to sew with great precision; you have tons of tips and tricks that others seamstresses can take advantage of.
You may start to consult clients on a part-time basis. You could offer a booklet of those sewing tips and tricks to clients.
In other words, if you’re an expert in any field, you can ‘farm out’ your expertise and gather increasing amounts of revenue in the process.
Reaching for a consultant when problems arise is as natural as looking for the sun to come up every morning. When you're not feeling well, you call for the services of a doctor. If your car isn't running right, you take it to a mechanic.
And so it is with a businessman when he encounters a problem - whether it is in the field of accounting, legal, sales or customer relations.
Your field of expertise is valuable to some person or company right now!
Let’s stretch the commonly assumed boundaries of what a ‘business consultant’ is and realize that experts are needed for almost everything a person tries to accomplish in life:
Car Repair Homemaking Studies Travel Employment Hobbies
Another side of this need for consultants is in the case of the over-enthusiastic entrepreneur who rushes headlong into a business where he has little or no experience. Many such dreamers invest their life savings in questionable projects without even considering the idea of bringing in a competent business consultant to analyze and evaluate their plans.
Even experienced people are prone to over-rate their own ideas. The image of the end result, and dedicated enthusiasm toward the attainment of one's goal are the prime prerequisites for success; however un-merited enthusiasm and dedication can also be very dangerous; if it is not based on solid research, it may cause people to chase headlong after non-existent rainbows.
And that's where you can fit in as a business consultant.
It is not necessary for you to have owned or operated a successful business to become a successful business consultant. Nor is it imperative that you have been in management or have held a titled position. You will, however, need the ability to sell yourself, and an up-to- date understanding of the area in which you intend to assist others.
Finally, I’d like to paint a picture of what the consultants’ life can be like.
Though each consultancy is unique, just as each human being is different, there are some things that you can look forward to experiencing.
Another title for a consultant is: an ‘Independent Professional’.
Let that title roll around your lips for a moment, say it out loud. It has a nice ring to it, don’t you think?
That all-important independence is delicious. You are truly your own boss.
While others may have to punch a time clock, adhere to many frivolous company policies and find themselves in a rut of sameness, the independent professional never does!
You don’t have to play ‘office politics’ because you’re independent.
You never have to go against your own inner truth to placate some ‘boss’.
In fact, you will be paid to ‘speak your mind’.
You can shock, surprise and discover whole new areas of development for your clients.
You never get bored because you’re always finding yourself in a fresh environment with new faces, new personalities and new projects.
The independent professional finds deep satisfaction in the work he or she does because each idea, projection, and solution comes from within them and; has his or her unique style and content stamped on it.
Finally, as I will show you, consulting can be taken as far, or as little, as YOU decide to go with it.
You may find yourself on the international stage traveling extensively, or you may work right in your own back yard a mere stone's throw from your client base. You will set the perimeters of your lifestyle; no one else will control your destiny.
The above is an extract from the book "Anyone Can Consult".
To learn more about consulting career, refer to this book:

This book could have been called "The New Consultants Toolkit" instead of "Anyone Can Consult".
It has that many useful tools for the budding entrepreneur that wishes to get started in this exciting and lucrative career. Inside these pages you’ll have all the ground floor material you’ll need to begin your consulting business.
But it’s not called "The New Consultants Toolkit" because I realized the really hard part would be to convince readers, hardworking knowledgeable folks just like you, that they can consult, using what they already know to help others and make a substantial income for themselves.
That’s the true challenge.
But it’s not insurmountable, especially if you broaden the scope of defining a consultant as we will in this book. I make no assumptions in "Anyone Can Consult", other than the assumption that you know next to nothing about consulting. I assume you’re a total beginner and if you’re not, there is still enough true ‘meat’ in these pages to satisfy the hungriest independent professional.
After all, what is consulting, anyway?
Consulting is an enterprise of ideas, thoughts, plans and innovations. It’s a field that utilizes your full array of experience and knowledge. It’s like being the Kings Advisor, One Of the Presidents Men (or Women) — a consultant is paid for his/her advice.
Advice that he/she sells.
This expertise is based on years of experience in a given area which has been developed, researched and applied countless times with success. Once you consider your individual background and decide on your area of specialty and convince yourself that you are truly ready to consult, the rest is a cakewalk.
You CAN consult.
The author clears away the dust and confusion and gives you a clearer, more succinct view of yourself in this magnificent arena. Before you’re done reading this book you’ll understand the ways to go about getting clients, displaying your ‘wares’, how to inject original ideas into projects and present them for profit.
He will give you a set of integral tools that get you started in this amazing consulting profession.
First, we’ll convince you that you CAN consult, no matter what field of endeavor you’re currently proficient in. Once you know— in a "rock solid" way— that you already have the ability to do this thing called ‘consult’, then you will be presented your ‘tools of the trade’.
You’ll get the extensive 5 part research course. You’ll use this tool constantly as a working consultant. Let’s face it, none of us have all the answers instantly at our fingertips, no matter how much of a "master" we are in our area of expertise.
Sometimes we have to do extra research to stay up-to-date and increase the value of our advice to clients.
This course comes with an index that is fully ‘clickable’ and will be a godsend the first time you turn to it for research. Every conceivable field has been included. You’ll love this tool!
A little apprehensive (even nervous) about stepping out on your own? Of course, you are. That’s completely natural. Although you may consult parttime in the beginning, and still have the comfort and support of a full-time job, eventually,— and once you get a ‘taste’ of this freedom we consultants experience every day we wake up,— you’ll want to join our ranks. That requires courage and desire. It requires assertiveness, too.
"The Truth About Assertiveness" has been included in this book as another invaluable tool for the budding consultant. You’ll feel much more independent and powerful once you take its advice to heart.
But we’re not done yet.
Since consulting is truly an arena of ‘ideas’, ‘concepts’, ‘advice’ and ‘original thinking’ you must be able to foster creativity on a daily basis. That’s what divides the ‘everyday’,— some would say expendable— consultant, from the true innovator that is never at a loss for clients.
You will be armed to the teeth in this vital area of creativity. When you apply "The Creative Process" - A 4 Step System To Uncover Your Hidden Ideas in this book, you’ll be a one-person army of constantly fresh, dynamic solutions that your clients will fall all over themselves to acquire from you.
One thing you'll surely experience, especially if you start out part-time, is the increasing demand on your time. Being organized is not a luxury for a busy consultant. It's the very lifeblood of proficient service. If you're working with 2-10 clients at once you had better be organized. Otherwise you'll be easily swamped , totally overwhelmed by the demands on you. The tool I've included here to help you in this vital area is titled: "Getting Organized Once & For All!"
Finally, you will be introduced to the original, one-of-a-kind "CREATORS Consulting Sessions" in case you want to take this whole enterprise into the stratosphere and become a ‘legend’ in your field.
You will be thrilled!
It is known that consulting is a growing field with over 40 Billion Dollars already being scooped up in the U.S. alone by enterprising, independent individuals that are much like you. Once you expand your image of yourself, free yourself to delve more deeply into an area you’ve already spent much time and effort in, and then give yourself permission to consult and help others with your own, unique knowledge, — you’ll never be the same again!
