No matter how successful you may think your business is, a consultant can help you get better by examining your company and its processes with a view from the inside. Outward signs of success include sales figures, revenue, profit and loss statements and the like. But the inside indicators, such as attitude and mindset, are a bit more tricky to see. That is where a consultant – with his or her fresh eyes – comes in handy.

When is the last time you took a good long look at yourself and your managers? Have you considered your mindset – the way you think and make decisions – as being a factor in the success of your business?

It is often hard to be introspective and remain objective. You already know too much about yourself, and your key players. It takes an outsider to look in and provide advice based on reality. Here is some advice from a top business consultant regarding how your mind can work to achieve the highest goals in your company.

Achieve Success by Thinking like a Successful Person

The successful person believes that his or her life is a work in progress that they have total control over. They own up to their failures and celebrate their successes, knowing that if they had done something differently with their resources, so would the results be different. They identify opportunities, and forcefully take advantage of them.

The unsuccessful person blames, or credits, outside factors. If the price of goods used in manufacturing went up, he or she uses this to explain a drop in profit. If sales increase, they may credit a change in consumer behavior rather than their own efforts to make it happen.

Successful people believe that money is important. They do not justify their efforts to get it and keep it. They realize that it takes money to make money and the more they have, the more they can accomplish.

Unsuccessful people justify their lack of money by stating that it isn’t the most important concern in their life. Whilst this may be true, money is important and needed to be treated as such. Think about what your significant other would do if you told him or her they were not the most important concern in your life. They would most likely leave. Money is the same. If it has no importance, than your coffers will never be full.

The successful person takes risks. They are not content with merely doing the same thing day in and day out to earn a paycheck. They take charge of their own wealth and get paid only when they can prove results. The unsuccessful person is content with merely getting paid the same amount every month, never taking a risk or identifying the opportunity to achieve more.

Successful people are well-educated. They stay informed about their industry, technology, the competition, and the latest developments. Unsuccessful people keep doing the same thing, in the same way without learning how to grow to meet changing demand.

Utilizing the services of a good business consultant costs money. But it should be considered an investment in yourself, one of the best you can make. A consultant can identify those personality traits that are holding your business back from achieving its full potential and teach you to think like a successful person.

Here’s how you can boost your sign up rate for your consulting services:

1. Sell yourself first. As the say, the information is only as valuable as its source. If you can convince your prospects that you are truly an expert, you surely won’t have problem getting them to sign up. Don’t worry as doing this is relatively easy. What you can do is share a slice of your expertise through article marketing, ezine publishing, and by hosting teleseminars. Talk about topics that are interesting to your potential clients to easily get the kind of attention you need.

2. Offer free consulting sessions. There is no doubt that consulting is one of the most competitive fields both in the online and offline arena. One of the best things that you can do to convince people to sign up with you is to give them free consulting sessions. Your goal here is make them believe that you can help them solve their problems and that you have what it takes to help them succeed in their endeavors.

3. Advertise. There is no way that you can boost your sign-up rate without promoting product awareness. You can do this by simply advertising your consulting services. I recommend that you use those that are cost-effective but proven efficient such as social media marketing and video marketing. These tools will not require you to spend huge amount of money for your advertising cost but they can definitely give you the kind of exposure you need. This is the key to boost your sales potential and revenue.

Here’s how you can advance at environmental consulting:

1. Make sure that you have what it takes to become an effective environmental consultant. As an environmental consultant, you are expected to help organizations on environmental issues that they are facing. It is your job to ensure that these organizations are following environmental regulations so they can avoid lawsuits in the future. To become effective in this field, you must have a bachelor’s degree in environmental science, environmental engineering, or other related fields. In addition, you must be familiar with environmental laws and regulations that have direct impact on small businesses and organizations.

2. Active listening. Aside from having the technical know-how, you must also have great listening skills. You can make use of this once your clients start talking about the problems that they are facing. Give them your undivided attention and make mental notes of what they would like to happen.

3. Great communication skills. As an environmental consultant, you will surely need to explain several things to your clients in a non-technical manner to avoid confusion. It would dramatically help if you have great communication skills. It’s a must that you know how to articulate your thoughts and ideas in a very easy to understand manner.

4. People skills. As a consultant, you will surely work with different types of individuals on a regular basis. As such, you need to make sure that you are comfortable working with these people. You must know how to communicate with them and you must know how to work as a team player.

Before we can focus on the things which make a business model unique to a small business consulting business, let’s take a quick look at what information is contained in a business model itself.

A business model is simply a way of getting all the ideas which go into the creation of your business down on paper. It helps you to organize your thoughts, and presents all the information in a clear and logical way. This not only helps you to see your business more clearly, but also makes it easier for potential investors and others, to quickly understand your business.

Generally, a business model will cover 4 different areas: Infrastructure, Offering, Customers, and Finances.

Infrastructure

Core: What are the things that are necessary, in order for your business to do what your business does?

Partners: What other people or businesses are you working with to conduct your normal business?

Values: What are those things which make the business something good for you to be doing, and what makes it something good for your customers?

Offering

What are the business’s products and services? Why should someone go to your business for those products and services, rather than get them from another business?

Customers

Who is the target customer of your business?

How will your business deliver your products and services to your customers? What is the business strategy behind your distribution channel?

What things will you do, and what processes will you use, to develop a relationship with your customers?

Finances

Cost: What are the total costs to your business, if you successfully follow your business model to conduct business?

Income: What are all the different ways your business will make money?

Your Small Business Consulting Model

The actual creation of your business model, is to provide as much detailed information as possible in answering the questions in those four areas. As you continue to create your business model, you can start to get a sense of how these areas will relate with one another within the structure of you business.

For a small business consulting business, all you need to do to create a business model, is to take a look at your consulting business, and answer each of the business model questions for yourself.

Obviously, I cannot give you all the details for your own small business consulting business. The details will be unique to you, based upon your specific situation. I will give you a few general things to think about. You can use these as starting points, when coming up with your own specific answers, for creating your business model.

First, look at all the various ways you will go about contacting potential customers. Try to think outside the box. Keep in mind that many traditional methods of marketing and advertising may not be as effective in generating leads for your consulting business.

Next, try to decide right now what process or procedures you can put into place, so you will be ready to expand your business the moment you can justify doing so. What hiring or training can you do now, in order to prepare for your success?

A consideration which follows close on the heels of preparing for your eventual expansion right now, is to keep your costs in check. Do your planning right now so you will be prepared when the day comes. But weigh the decision carefully before you actually invest any money into that preparation.

There are of course, many things to consider when building your business model. The last thing I will leave you with right now, is to think about what your clients will need, and how you can best serve that need to them.

If you are consulting to small businesses, ask yourself what things are most important to the small business owners you will be serving, and what are the best ways you can help them achieve those things.

Once you have asked yourself that question, go out and actually ask small business owners to tell you how you could best serve them. Ask them what they need, and how you can help them get it.

Not only will you be gathering information which will help you create the best business model possible, but you will also be developing relationships with the very same people who will shortly become your very best clients.

If you have worked as a consultant for many years for a particular organization, you are in the best position to start your very own consulting company as you have the experience and the needed exposure. This will allow you to have yourself as your own boss and this can boost your earnings by up to a hundredfold. Here’s what you need to do:

1. Decide where you want to work. You basically have two choices; go online or build a typical brick and mortar business. List down your priorities and your preferences. Then, list down the pros and cons of starting an online or offline business. You can also ask for advice from people who have been there and done that. By doing so, you can easily make well-informed decisions.

2. Hire consultants. Depending on your projected number of sign ups, you may consider hiring 2-3 consultants to start with. Spend as much time during the hiring process. Remember, you would want to hire only the best as the success of your company will largely depend on your employees. Go with those consultants who have proven track record in this field and who are easy to work with. It would be best if you hire consultants you have worked with in the past and make them your partners.

3. Marketing strategy. As early as now, you will need to think of an aggressive marketing strategy to promote your consulting company. Make sure that these strategies are effective and highly targeted. You wouldn’t want to waste time and money on marketing tools that will not help you connect with those people who might be interested on what you offer.

Have you taken the time and effort to truly define your brand? A brand just is not about the greatest logo or most visually appealing pictures. Brands define you and your business, promotes professionalism and purpose and builds confidence and rapport with your target audience.

8 Key Areas You Want to Keep Your Visual Brand Consistent

Have you ever wondered what your social media followers think about you?

Is it possible you are sending mixed messages to your prospects?

This month we’re talking about the importance of personal branding and how it helps your business. This article ties closely in with that regarding your visual brand – essentially how you come across to others.

Over the years I have seen a lot of business owners who haven’t taken time to define their brand. They don’t understand when businesses stray from their brand,Guest Posting it dilutes their brand power and impact. Or worse, they have nothing about them that sets them apart.

As a result, they complain they are attracting the wrong customers or hardly getting any leads at all…

This “me too” method of marketing that mimics what competitors are doing isn’t effective.

That’s why I feel compelled to share more what a visual brand is and how to build a strong one online.

Whether you’re creating a new brand or updating your existing one, your brand’s visual identity is the most important factor in your marketing.

Your brand is so much more than a website and a logo. It’s a user’s total experience and perception of you.

So every touchpoint a prospect has with you should have one consistent look and theme. This includes your logo, website, stationery, social media, videos, brochures, business cards, and of course your personal brand in how you dress and present yourself to the world.

Watch: Here’s how Dana J. Smithers integrates her personal branding with her business brand. http://evisionmedia.ca/personal-branding-and-professional-branding/

A solid visual brand:
- Helps people know what to expect from you.
- Promotes professionalism and purpose.
- Draws prospects who align with your ideas, attitudes and values.
- Enhances confidence, trust and rapport with your followers.
- Builds upon the existing brand experience they have with you in a positive (or a negative) way.

Visual branding adds real power to your marketing. It increases engagement and understanding.

With all these benefits to personal and professional branding, it’s more important than ever to brand your visual content and images so you stand out from competitors.

How Can You Keep Your Brand Consistent?

You write blog articles and posts every day. You are working back and forth on projects. How can you be certain that all the marketing you do resonates with your core brand?
Creating a style guide makes it easier to keep your marketing pieces consistent.

Firstly, ensure your brand is consistent in the following areas:

- Headshot – Having a professional headshot goes a long way in developing brand trust.
- Logo – your logo is the nucleus of your brand, everything else stems from that. Ensure it’s designed properly that includes the psychology of what it represents.
- Colour Palette – Colours that will resonate with your target market and be meaningful to your brand.
- Brand Message – This is the essence of your business that includes your slogan or tagline of who you are, what you do, and how you deliver value.
- Fonts – Being consistent with the same one or two typefaces throughout all written materials as well as graphics
- Design Elements – The use of borders, lines, shadows and filters should all become familiar to being associated with your visual brand.
- Tone – Set the tone of your business presence and stick to it – whether serious, high-tech, sarcastic or soulful, this is a big part of building a solid brand presence.

For example: our colours are purple and green. Our typeface is: Asap. Our logo is: a mother Emperor Penguin and her baby chick. Our slogan is “creating your brand, showcasing your business, nurturing your dream to reality” as seen here in our website header:

We have also created a template that we use for our marketing eTips and inspirational messages, so people instantly recognize them:

Create a Style Guide as Your Roadmap

A style guide acts like a map that helps your team to stay on track. Sharing your style guide with key members of your team can ensure everyone knows the style guidelines and can follow them.

- Your copywriter and social media manager will understand how to write with your brand voice.
- Your graphic designer will stick to the fonts and colours your brand is known for.
- Your web design team can make sure your website and landing pages all have the same look and feel.

This is especially important for companies with virtual employees spanning in multiple geographic regions. Make it easy for your team to access your logo, fonts and templates. Always protect your brand. Double check when new marketing pieces come in that they conform to brand guidelines.

Here’s 8 areas you will want to keep your brand consistent in everything you do in your business marketing and social media efforts:

1. Website

Your website is the biggest brand statement your business has. It serves as a reference to make sure all other brand elements are in alignment.

That’s why I am so against people who use cookie-cutter template sites. They may look polished, but they lack the warmth, connection and personality of a branded website (not to mention how badly they are built.)

Make sure the images you use are reflective of your ideal client. Use language that resonates with your target audience. Create an about page that helps your visitors understand your backstory and why you are passionate and good at what you do.

The more your website looks and feels like you, the stronger attraction tool it will be for potential clients.

2. Professional Headshot

I was very camera shy when I first started my business. So when it came time to get some updated headshots, I dreaded it. But I found that going through the process brought me confidence.

My new headshots are used as a personal and business branding tool that help me to be more recognized online. They are on all my social media profiles and on our website. Aa a result, people recognize me when I attend local networking events.

Investing in new headshots can truly jumpstart your brand and success.

3. Sharing Photos

Sharing photos makes your marketing more personable and showcases your personal brand. Consumers love seeing the real person behind the business.
So be mindful of when you are working or in group situations and see how you can snap pictures to show followers what you are up to.

Take a picture holding your new book. Grab a shot with a new friend you met while networking. Show the resort you are staying at for your business mastermind.

4. Video

Creating videos helps build a strong following online. It’s important to have your videos match your brand too. Dress in a manner that is consistent with your brand.

You could also shoot it in similar places or locations. Whether that’s sitting at your desk, cooking in the kitchen, or standing in front of a green screen with a projected background, that consistent setting helps build familiarity.

Be warm, friendly and connective. If you promise to offer weekly video tips, then get them out on the same day each week so viewers can anticipate them. Create a custom hashtag for your video tips too – we created our eVision video eTips with the hashtag #eTip for consistency.

5. Branded Images

Kick up the interest of your blog articles and social media with images. There are loads of free tools to help you make graphic quotes, infographics, and other visuals to add impact.

Make sure all your graphic images are consistent with your brand. Adding your logo makes it easy for people to instantly recognize the content is from you.
For instance, the other day we re-posted an older article about “6 Steps to Nurturing A Profitable Business”. We featured an image of an Emperor Penguin family. It suggested the idea of nurturing but also tied into our brand with the Penguin theme.

6. Social Media

Social media provides so many opportunities for visual branding. From Facebook cover images to profile pics, to graphics, there are endless opportunities for people to learn more about what you do.

The images you use can evoke the feelings and emotions you want your brand to convey. The goal is for someone to look at your social media account and get an impression that helps them understand your unique vibe.

7. Free Giveaways

When you are offering free reports, tools, and other goodies to visitors, make sure they have the same colours, logos, and visual feel as your other materials.
When it looks professional and makes a great impression, it builds credibility. Plus, it’s just one more piece of the brand puzzle that helps them understand what you do.

For example, our free giveaway is “The Ultimate Guide to Improving Your Website’s Profitability”. The cover features a headshot of me for familiarity. It has our brand colour of purple and includes our logo. So it looks and feels like us. If someone forwarded a copy of this to a friend, they would get an accurate sense of our brand.

8. Email Signature

A graphic email signature can add visual impact to every message you send. Services like Wisestamp make it easy to add your logo, picture, and social media links to your email signature.

We have designed many eSignatures for clients that exactly match their brand and it’s an effective way to enhance their brand with every email they send out.
Have your virtual team members set up a signature too so you come across as a professional team to your customers.

Are you a Wanna Be or a Real Brand?

It’s really important to take a look at your brand as a whole to make sure everything is in alignment.

Is your visual brand

- Clear,
- consistent,
- Authentic,
- Memorable, and
- In alignment with changes in the marketplace, your offerings, or your success?

Even if your brand was on target 3 years ago, the nature of your business may have changed where your brand no longer accurately reflects what you do or who you serve.
You have become more specialized. You may have new product offerings. Maybe you are now the host of a new podcast.

Take a look at your brand with the eyes of an outsider and ask yourself if what you see truly reflect who you are now as a company

Balanced Scorecard is an efficient way for determining the actual value of the brand equity, which is the company’s most significant intangible asset.

Strong brand is the most valuable intangible asset of the company. Although brands are not listed on corporate balance sheets,Guest Posting they play key role in determining the company’s success in the long-term perspective.

Share prices of companies with well-known brands have significantly higher investment returns and lower risk rate when compared to the stock market as a whole.

Brand has a clearly identifiable financial value conveyed in the price tag associated with a specific brand. This financial value represents the economic value of the brand to the owner.

Brand financial value includes four major metrics: Revenue generation capabilities (Measures the impact of the brand familiarity on sales, including future sales volume potential of the brand), Return on investment (Measures the ROI in the brand marketing), Transaction value (Identifies the product/serivce transaction value and measures the current and potential value the brand adds to a transaction), and Growth sustainability rate (Measures the impact of the brand to the maximum growth rate the brand owner can sustain without increasing financial leverage).

As a result of the brand evaluation using Balanced Scorecard or KPI, the company can determine the current value of the brand equity compared to its short-term and long-term objectives. The bottom line includes percentage values of the actual and expected performance of the brand, and identifies both strong and weak areas of the company’s brand management.

Custom boxes with logos are playing an important role in the marketing and promotion of the brand. The logo of the company should be designed in a unique way in order to grab the attention of the buyers. However, printing logo on the custom boxes is also contributing to increased brand awareness.
