The Consultant's Quick Start Guide

An Action Plan for Your First Year in Business

An action plan for working as a consultant

Management consulting is a $250 billion industry and growing at a rate of over four percent annually. Many predict that more than 40 percent of the US workforce will soon be contingent, freelance, or consulting members of the workforce - making this book more relevant than ever.

Individuals become independent consultants out of necessity or preference: necessity because they lost their job or the company offered an attractive exit package; preference because they want a career change, more control over their time, or an enriched, varied work situation. Consulting also appeals to the Millennial workforce who are searching for careers that offer a good salary, as well as meaningful work. The New Consultant's Quick Start Guide:

• Serves as a companion to The New Business of Consulting
• Provides you with a place to plan your transition into consulting
• Helps you identify your niche, develop a business plan, charge what you're worth, and create a marketing strategy to ensure a steady stream of clients
• Prepares you for changes you will encounter beyond your professional life, including social, family, and financial aspects
