How To Get Your Part Time Consulting Business Started!Part Two
Did you notice in part one of this ongoing series, how there are lots of extremely qualified experts in their own right, who for whatever reasons, don’t think they’re uniquely qualified to help others.
Simply because, (maybe) they currently work for someone else, even though they’re currently, gainfully employed in the field they would be starting their part time consulting business in.
And they (mistakenly feel), being employed by someone else, somehow disqualifies them from being able to help less knowledgeable entrepreneurs, manage their way through a sometimes, sea of confusion. Honestly, who can put a realistic price tag on such a much needed service? Right?
And just because the provider, currently works for someone else, so what! It’s the final results they’re qualified to deliver, which is what matters most, is it not?
Who Says You Can’t Start A Part time Consulting Business? (Just Because You Currently Work For Someone Else!)
Picking up where part one left off. So let’s say this particular female Aweber customer care specialist, is getting her hair and or nails done by her favorite local provider of these particular services.
And she casually asks, if the owners (of either) establishment, currently has their own state of the art WordPress website and or blog.
And of course the answer, (more times than not), is they do not, (and sadly), have no plans for doing so.
Then she also asks, if they have ever seriously considered the long term profit potential of strategically using opt in email.
And after she explains the two primary ways, they can and definitely should use opt in email marketing, using some un-traditional online marketing strategies.They’re sincerely interested in learning more.
Your Entrepreneurial Skills Just Might Help You Unleash An Untapped Goldmine!
Case in point; in order to initially get her consulting business, positive word of mouth or mouse campaign off the ground, she could set up Awebers “Atom App” for free,for a few long term potential consulting clients.(And just make sure they understand, doing so is a blank dollar value.)
And show them how, in the next 15 minutes or less, they could convert their smart phone or tablet, into a list building marketing tool. 😎
And the next time they’re working out at the gym or they meet someone interesting, (translated) a potential customer, client, patient and or potential cross promotional/joint venture (JV) partner etc.
They can whip out their phone and capture this particular prospects contact info, and add them to their long term email follow up campaign.
(Important note: While one of Awebers female customer care specialist was specifically referenced! Rest assured, these particular battlefield tested marketing strategies, will apply equally for one of Aweber-s men customer care specialists as well. 😎 )
You Have More Proven Ways To Promote Your Business Or Service Than You May Currently Realize!
For ex; take a look at the sample sign up form (aka) lead capture page form below. It was built in all of twenty minutes, using my paid email service provider of choice, Awebers rather basic sign up form editor.

Remember, the key to effectively using Aweber-s self hosted sign up form list building strategy is, you purchase a relevant domain name, and re-direct it to Aweber-s self hosted form.
Just make sure, your free “ethical bribe”, is some type of free drawing worth entering! 😎 Otherwise, you’re not taking full advantage of this proven marketing strategies potential.
Positive Word Of Mouth And Mouse Referral Marketing Is Definitely Where It’s At!
Just think of how much potential, long term positive word of mouth and mouse buzz, this Aweber customer care specialist will create, simply by showing a few local female -stay at home- Mom-preneurs, how to properly download Aweber-s “Atom App”, and properly configure it.
And she can leverage their satisfaction, into them referring some new potential first time consulting clients, who she or he, could then offer a one time set up fee price, for showing them how to properly use Aweber-s sign up form editor.
And if need be, charge them an ongoing maintenance fee.Initially, she may charge just $350 dollars per month, (or X) to write their initial “Welcome” email message, and their initial email follow up campaigns.
And also show them ‘how to’ send unscheduled ‘broadcast’ email messages, and segment their lists etc.
You Can And Definitely Should Start Your Consulting Business On A Part Time Bases! (In Order To Initially Get Your Feet Wet!)
Basically, even though these expert customer care specialists, currently work full time for a highly reputable, paid email service provider.
This should only enhance these potential consultants status, not diminish it. Don’t you agree? They can also allow some of their present consulting customers, to giveaway free “Email service’ set up kits to their best customers.
(In other words: Let some of their best customers lead generate for them.) And the consultant, will (either) set up Aweber-s app for free, even though doing so is an X dollar value.
Or charge an initial (extremely) discounted lead generating fee, and make the major portion of their paid consulting income, on the back end of their sales funnel, by charging these potential customers, X amount of dollars per month, to basically run the email marketing campaigns and management of their accounts etc.
Effective Referral Marketing Has Many Spokes In It’s Wheels!
They could also create some special lead generating promotions, where brand new first time consulting clients, save 25% (or X) amount, on their first two hours of paid consulting, provided the potential prospect/customers, are on the consultants VIP opt in email list.
Can you say social media avalanche!LOL!
In any event, hopefully you’re starting to appreciate, how and why, someone working full time for someone else, doesn’t automatically prevent them, from starting a successful consulting business, even if they’re starting it part time! Don’t you agree?
