A business consultant, at times also referred to as a management consultant, is a professional who creates customized strategy and recommendations to achieve a specific business goal, execute a transaction, or implement a project.  Unlike a business coach, a business consultant partners with the organization in the implementation and execution of ideas to see the project through to the finish line far beyond the initial review, strategy, and recommendations provided. 

Your business might benefit from a business consultant if:

1. You have or anticipate a resource gap and you desire support to successfully achieve a specific goal or meet an important deadline.
2. You are ready to implement a "disruptive" project within the next 30-60 days that requires additional bandwidth.
3. You have identified ways to grow your business that cannot successfully be supported by its existing operational framework.

A business consultant brings experience and a fresh, objective perspective combined with the ability to communicate professionally and honestly in a way that team members and colleagues might not.  

A business consultant has the ability to quickly integrate into the business and get up to speed on any related work and make key connections with stakeholders.  

A business consultant also comes with more flexible and cost-effective working arrangements when hiring full-time staff is not an available solution.

A business consultant is responsible for objectively lending their professional skills, expertise, and experience to an organization to achieve a specific goal.

A business consultant has a role in the execution or implementation of the strategy designed to achieve the business goal you set when partnering.  There is a built in level of accountability through project milestones and hands-on support, oftentimes provided on-site, that is not provided through coaching.

The length of a contract with a business consultant can vary from hours, days, weeks, months or years, is based on the needs of your organization, and is up to you.

A business consultant provides strategy, recommendations, performs process audits, creates new and improves existing processes, executes transactions, implements projects, provides training, and uses their skills to add to the power of an organization's existing resources, team, and expertise.
