Dear Friend,

I've never made less than $100,000.00 a year, part-time, from my consulting activities. I think most people have the same opportunity and ability, if they choose to utilize it.

For a whole collection of reasons, the marketplace's need, desire, demand and willingness to pay for "advice" and "specialized, expert assistance" is bigger than ever and growing explosively. There may never have been a better time to pick one or several consulting specialties and 'hang out your shingle' as a consultant.

In many respects, consulting is a near-perfect business. You have enormous freedom.... you can operate with virtually no overhead, even from home if you choose....and it is relatively easy to "bill" at least $1,000.00 a day.

There are well over 1,000 consulting categories and specialties, so the odds overwhelmingly favor you having some combination of education, practical knowledge, experience, credibility and interests that can be "packaged" as consulting services desired by some market or markets.

(Among my friends and clients who've become successful consultants, there is a reformed bread truck delivery man-thief, a physical therapist, a former college football coach, several salespeople, and a tailor.)

One of the most interesting aspects of the consulting profession is the vast disparity between similar consultants' incomes - why does one earn $200,000.00 a year, another struggle to make $20,000.00? If that interests you, I do have the answer.

Actually, there are a handful of them - a handful of absolutely critical, essential skills and techniques that a person must master, in order to hit high income levels in consulting.

And there's a lot to know about the business of consulting. For example, do you know ALL the ways to "spot" prospective clients who are ready for your services? Do you know how to prevent fee resistance? How to diversify your income? How to avoid getting saddled with "problem clients"? Why the way most consultants prepare proposals dooms them from the very start? How to "customize" your services for different fields?

After years of prodding from people interested in how I've built my consulting business and helped others to build theirs, I decided to create a Course; actually a complete "Consulting Business In A Box" to market. And I enlisted the assistance of Elsom Eldridge, possibly one of the top two or three "consultants to consultants" in America.

Elsom was closely associated with Howard Shenson for many years - Howard, who passed away, was the "dean" of the consulting business, the author of nearly a dozen books on the subject (many available in bookstores), and a provider of seminars on the how-to's of consulting to nearly a half-million people worldwide.

Elsom is a graduate of Harvard, a former California State University professor, and the author of six books. He also has his own successful consulting business, in the sales training, business development and association management fields. With his contributions and editorial assistance, the most comprehensive set of how-to instructions for the consulting business have been assembled.

Experienced consultants will find this a good "check-up", and will certainly discover some strategies new to them - many find major income breakthroughs. People just starting out in the consulting business will find this to be almost the equal of a "McDonalds franchise" for the consulting business - although at nothing near a franchise price tag.

So, who should get this Course? Any already established consultant or "freelancer" open-minded to new and better ways of making money, attracting clients, and managing the business. Also, anyone interested in making $500 to $1,000 a day "part-time", who has a marketable skill gained through education or experience.

Many engineers, scientists, psychologists, executives, retired military officers, computer experts and writers do very, very well in the consulting business.

This giant Course includes TWELVE CDs covering every imaginable question and answer, how-to strategy and opportunity in the consulting field, accompanied by a 10-Section Manual with over 200 pages.
