This course covers everything Paul has learned so far in his independent consulting career. He’s made the mistakes so you don’t have to. He knows what works and what doesn’t. And he is sharing absolutely everything with you. Step-by-step.
1. Getting Started as a Freelance Consultant
What is freelance consulting? What does a consultant do? The course starts by answering these questions, showing you the day-to-day of a freelance consultant and the opportunities available to you.
You’ll see that, like many jobs in today’s world, fancy degrees are becoming less and less relevant. In fact anyone can be a consultant, not just those with an MBA.
Ultimately a consultant is just someone that helps a business (of any size and in any sector) with their problems, right? So why can’t that be you?
Consultants are hired guns. They’re mercenaries brought on board to apply their specific knowledge to a specific problem.
No matter how junior you think you are, you have knowledge that you’ve gained during your career.
This course will show you how you can use that knowledge to solve problems faced by businesses and package it into professional reports and presentations that will wow clients.
2. Practical Exercises for Your Dream Company
The best way to learn is by doing. That’s why this course is packed with exercises. Throughout the course you will conduct actual consulting work for your Dream Company.
If you love video games then you could choose to consult for Nintendo throughout this course. If you love ice cream then maybe you choose Ben & Jerry’s.
Whatever company you choose, this is the company you are going to consult for and work with during this course. So choose carefully!
You never know, one day you may actually have an opportunity to make a consulting proposal to the company you choose, and the consulting materials that you create for them during this course would surely come in handy for that proposal.
Or even better, you can (and should) send a cold email to someone at your Dream Company with the materials you prepared to get your foot in the door!
