A proven, step-by-step guide to building a lucrative consulting practice and the mindset that goes with it In The Seven-Figure Consultant: A Professional's Guide to Building a Legacy-Level Consulting Practice, rockstar of consulting and renowned author Alan Weiss, delivers a hyper-focused, step-by-step guide to using your consulting skillset to build the lifestyle you've always wanted. Weiss walks you through his eye-opening perspective on what it really means to be "wealthy" (spoiler: it's about time, not dollars and cents) and how to achieve that wealth. The book explains the on-the-ground realities of building a consulting service that grows sustainably and brings in the fees you need to live your life to its fullest. You'll learn how to frame your value proposition, how to sell yourself as a true expert, and how to walk the tightrope that lies between arrogance and confidence. You'll also find practical tools for how to engage with the latest AI tech, how to write a proposal that gets accepted every time, and how to track your most important metric: labor intensity. Inside the book: • Key strategies on marketing your practice, including the six options for exponential growth that work at any level • A revealing collection of interviews and commentary from seven-figure solo consultants who have mastered their industries • The proper place of social media within your consulting practice, its benefits, and its unavoidable limitations The Seven-Figure Consultant is a granular, first-hand look at building a successful consulting practice by an author who has done it himself. But it's also a mindset, one that correctly identifies "real wealth" as the time you're able to make for-and spend on-yourself, and the people you care about the most. Weiss explains how to build both, one step at a time.
