It's an incredible asset for independent consultants.
I remember earning about $37,000 a year during my first few years as a consultant. It took almost ten years for me to learn how to make a six-figure income as a consultant.
I don't want your climb to a six-figure income to take ten years.
I remember my excitement the first time I reported $983,000 to the US Internal Revenue service. To me it was proof that I had learned what it takes to build a six-figure, solo-consultant income, deliver great value to my clients, and have work-life balance.
Most consultants go through this same struggle - they are experts in their field and dedicated to helping clients, but they don't know how to find a niche that values them, how to build a pipeline of prospects, and how to build automated systems that market and leverage the value they deliver.
Most consultants face years of feast-or-famine!
It was an amazing "Ah hah!" moment for me when I realized there was a way to deliver more value to more clients and work less. And in the process I was earning more. My income did not have to depend upon how many hours I worked. And boy, had I worked long, hard hours!
I don't want you to take years to learn how to start and build a highly successful six- or seven-figure consulting business.
You deserve to be paid what you are worth.
