Consulting

Management consulting is a growing, $250 billion industry with more than 700,000 consulting firms providing services for all types of business globally, according to Inc. in 2017. Whether the consulting focus is strategy, operations, tax, finance, HR or IT, business consultants are integral to corporate life. From defining strategic direction to providing additional support to in-house teams to performing outsourced work, consultants are essential to the success of most large organizations.

In the consulting world, industry-leading global research and advisory firms, boutique consulting groups and every type of consulting organization in between face intense competition for business. Building networks of clients and contacts who can refer new business and help elevate awareness of a consultant’s expertise and value must be a high priority if consulting groups are to succeed.

Personal contacts with senior executives are the foundation for relationships that can yield repeat business and referrals over time. Consultants must organize and nurture these relationships and communicate regularly and effectively to market their services and build new business. Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is essential for managing these valuable, collaborative ecosystems and building and sustaining individual relationships in the competitive consulting arena.
