FAQ
How do you get clients for your consultancy business?
Finding a passion area is the first step. You could choose anything from public relations to social media, but it should be something you love. If not, you may have to start small by finding a niche market such as web design. Once you find the right niche, it is important to know what makes it tick. What problems does the solution solve? What are the benefits? And most importantly, how can you help them?
It is also possible to approach businesses directly.
If all else fails, why not offer your services at free events like networking evenings and conferences? You'll meet many potential customers without spending money on advertising, and you'll be able to show off your skills.
What can I count on from my consultant to help me?
Within a few days of selecting your consultant, you can expect to hear back. They will often ask about your company's mission, goals and products. Next, they'll provide a proposal describing the scope and estimated time frame, fees, deliverables or milestones, as well as an estimate of costs.
If all goes according to plan, the two sides will sign a written deal. The type and content of the contract will vary depending on whether the relationship is employer-employee/employer-independent contractor.
If everything goes smoothly, the consultant can begin work immediately. You will have access both to your documents and internal resources and the consultant's skills and knowledge.
Don't assume that someone who is a consultant knows everything. It takes practice and hard work to become an expert in the field you are consulting. Don't expect your consultant know everything about your company.

How To
How To Find The Best Consultant?
Ask yourself what you want from your new consultant before you start looking. Before you look for someone, you need to be clear about your expectations. Make a list of everything you think you might need from a consultant. This list could include technical expertise, project management skills, communication skills and availability. After you have listed your requirements, it might be a good idea to ask colleagues and friends for their recommendations. Ask your friends and colleagues if they have had bad experiences with consultants in the past. Compare their recommendations with yours. You can also do some online research if you don't know of any. There are many websites that allow users to leave feedback about their previous work experiences, such as LinkedIn and Facebook, Angie's List or Indeed. Take a look at comments and ratings from others, and use that data to find potential candidates. Once you have a shortlist, be sure to contact potential candidates directly to schedule an interview. At the interview, it is important to discuss your requirements and get their feedback on how they can help. It doesn’t matter if the person was recommended to you; it matters that they understand your business goals, and can show you how they can help.
