Whose advice should consultants take?
0
Just because other people come to us for advice doesn’t mean we have to do it all on our own. Here are a few suggestions that BACN members made at the March 27, 2005 meeting.
- It’s usually a good idea to have an attorney.
- Join a Business Group.
- Every coach should have a coach
- Get a technical person to take care of your computer and website if you’re not a computer guru
- Look at which business skills you do and don’t have; if you don’t have the skill and don’t want to learn it, hire someone else
- You need a good CPA who is also a financial planner
- Don’t forget your clients as a source of information, advice, ideas, opinions
- Consider a marketing advisor.
- Collaborate or trade services with another consultant
- Look for a mentor in your own consulting specialty
- If you’re a right-brain person, find a left-brain colleague to provide you with the perspective of left-brain prospects
- Your spouse can be your consultant of first resort.
