If you've been a longtime reader of this blog, you probably know that in addition to affiliate marketing, blogging and my other businesses, I've been a local (and virtual) consultant for several small to large companies from time time.
I finally decided to spill the beans and tell all my secrets consulting.
A couple of things good consulting can work from home, work your own hours (mostly) and how often you will pay big to do what is good. I'm sure you already know that so here's the good ...
Every time I talk about consulting usually get dozens of questions via the contact form, so I decided to remove consulting you.
There are two types of consultants.
Type 1 Consultants
Usually, a type of expert consultants are consultants working from home and work with local and worldwide. These people tend to have years of "skills", which essentially is what the company is paying (his years of experience in a particular skill or field). Type 1 usually are consultants who earn $ 10k-15k a month right off the bat of a handful of customers.
Type 2 Consulting
This is where everyone starts and where I want to focus for the sake of this post. Such consultants may not have a lot of experience in a particular field and this type of consultant is more about the business skills of the personality, drive, passion and generally what being an expert in a particular field. For example, if you have very little capacity for local business marketing, but you're the most motivated, driven person around then you could certainly build a $ 2.000 - $ 5.000 per month consulting local businesses. It's one of those things that if you have the right mentor and a solid plan, then you can do well and become sort of a consultant shortly after learning the trade marketing of local businesses successfully. If you are lucky enough to have some affiliate marketing and other marketing skills that would stand out really fast if you know how this works local consultant.
Getting Started
The best way to start working as a consultant is basically put together a package of benefits that can be presented to a local company. You are not selling their skills if they have (maybe you have one), you are simply selling yourself and your ability to learn what you need to learn how to help a local company to earn more money. If you have the chance to get a mentor or learn about how other companies in your field of potential clients get more customers then that is a good place to start.
Types of local businesses to target
Basically, any business that has a service or product for sale may be your goal. Obviously, you want something with good margins, as a dental office rather than a convenience store (although there are some advanced techniques for working with low-margin business that we can talk later.) Any company that has a product medium-high price, and as dentistry or used for sale, would be great for local business destination. This is because they have a decent profit margin to pay for their services. Yes, even used car lots have decent profit margins, just do not want you to know that. Anyway, that's not the point, there are tens of thousands of local businesses in cities around the world.
It's quite simple really going to help local businesses more people to buy your product. This is the point where you usually get a bunch of emails "How do I choose the companies? How much they charge? How I spend? How the market for 10 companies at once?" Well, I have the answers ... But first, let's make sure this is something you really believe it is for you.
What is the typical day of a local consultant?
* Monitoring progress (sales, customers, etc.)
* Is it marketing.
* Develop a plan for customers.
* Hold meetings with clients.
* Execute the plan (sometimes in their hands, sometimes its not)
* Find more clients or work more closely with existing clients on additional projects.
* (Most of this can be done from home. Ensure that wants to work from home.)
How much can you do?
A local client as a dentist, many used car or a moving service can afford to pay $ 100, $ 200, $ 500, $ 1000/month + depending on what you can do for them. And if they are marketing themselves online successfully, you can do much for them and be worth more than $ 1,000 / month with them. Multiply this times 200 small businesses in each city has no shortage of potential revenue.
How can become a local consultant?
If you think you have what it takes (by car, passion, motivation, not a coward), so I want to check something. It is called Local Training Consultant. It is a personal training program that I and a friend are kidding. We are taking less than 20 people, and you must apply to enter If you are lucky enough to be selected are personally training to be a local consultant. Giving all our stuff, basically a local business consultant in a box, you can use to go get 20 customers next week and start throwing some money as a local consultant. We have developed a way of working with a lot of local customers at a time and give them all the huge profits.
We are doing this just for the top 20 because we want a set of case studies in the next 6 months and we want 100% of people taking the consultants a great success. Local Training Consultant.
