Guide Review
Interested in learning how to start, manage and build a consulting business?

This is the book many experienced consultants know they should have written, indeed, wish they had written! Packed with tips for every aspect of consulting from managing the business to marketing and keeping clients, the book gives the experienced consultant many new ideas.

There is much more to running a business than doing the actual work of consulting. "The Business of Consulting" does one of the best jobs of any book on the market to identify and describe all aspects of managing and growing a successful consulting practice.

Ever hear about fat envelopes? Know how to effectively work a trade show? Need great ideas about earning return business from current clients? You’ll find these tips and more!
