About This Workshop

My workshop will guide you through all the stages of being an educational consultant, whether you're just starting out or trying to take what you've already been doing to a higher level.  

We'll begin by talking about how to get started in consulting from figuring out what kind of work is right for you to whether you really need a business license, bank account, or insurance.  Then we'll talk about how to grow your business so it becomes sustainable including websites, social media, and email lists.  From there we'll talk about client management including negotiating what you'll do and how much you'll get paid to exceeding their expectations so that they'll recommend you to others.  Then we'll focus on taking care of yourself including the transition from part time to full time consultant.  Finally we'll talk about setting and achieving long term goals including determining what to spend your time on and generating other kinds of consulting revenue including creating online workshops and writing books.
