This site aims to help experts who are starting a consulting or coaching business in the UK or who are looking to attract more business to their established practice.
It’s a site for independent professionals, solopreneurs and the owners of small expert consultancies.
I started this site because I believe that most of the advice designed to help small businesses to succeed needs to be adapted to suit the situation of experts in business.
That’s because consultants, coaches and other experts sell intangible, high value, complex products and services.
To do this effectively they need a business model that suits their circumstances. They also need an approach to running their business that fits their objectives and preferred ways of working.
This site will help. Take a look.
What you’ll find here . . .
I place a special emphasis on one important principle:
Clear thinking + the right actions = Success
The problem is that most people are so keen to take action they forget about clear thinking.
I help my readers to avoid this mistake. I write a lot about getting your business organised in the right way and then choosing the best tactics to help you to achieve the success you deserve.
About me, Margaret Adams
I’ve been running a consultancy for more than twenty years.
- I’ve worked as a consultant in the public sector and in the private sector.
- I’ve worked on projects for international consultancies.
- My company has worked under contract to one of the big four consultancies here in the UK.
Right now I’m focusing on two key themes:
Starting a consulting business in the UK – helping experts to start the right business in the right way and build a practice that can sustain them.
Becoming a market leader – helping independent professionals and expert consultancies sell to bigger companies, to high net worth individuals and to international clients by positioning themselves as experts in their niche.
