Consulting business, done for you

Have Your Consulting Practice Built Around Your Career, Not a Template

You are not short on expertise. You are short on the machinery: positioning that commands premium rates, packaged engagements with prices you can say out loud, and a pipeline that starts with the network you already earned. We design that machinery with you, in weeks, while your runway is still long.

Done-for-you buildouts start at $5,000. Full execution buildouts range from $15,000 to $50,000 depending on scope, speed, and level of support.

The math on figuring it out alone

The typical first year of self-taught consulting: two underpriced projects from friends, months of proposal writing, and revenue nowhere near the old salary.

The expensive part is not the mistakes. It is anchoring your market at half your value, because early prices follow you for years.

Every month without clear positioning, your warm network cools and hires someone who could explain what they sell.

For someone leaving a senior role, that first year of fumbling costs more than any buildout on this page.

Runway is finite and networks go cold. Speed is not a luxury here. Speed is the strategy.

What we design your practice to be

A consulting business is positioning plus an offer ladder plus a pipeline. We choose each on purpose, from your actual track record:

Boutique advisoryA short roster of retainer clients at premium monthly rates
Project practiceDefined-outcome engagements sold through a fixed-fee diagnostic
Fractional executiveTwo or three companies buying a day a week of you at executive pricing
Authority practiceConsulting plus training and speaking, compounding into inbound demand

One of these fits how you want to work. We find which, then engineer the offers and pipeline backward from your income target.

The real roadmap

What gets built in your buildout

  1. 1

    Positioning from your track record

    We mine your career for the expensive problems you have provably solved and position you on the one with the best market, in language buyers use.

  2. 2

    The offer ladder, written and priced

    Your diagnostic, core engagement, and retainer: named, scoped, and priced against the cost of the client's problem, not your old salary.

  3. 3

    Revenue model and targets

    How many engagements at what price replace and then exceed the salary, so every month has a number to hit instead of a mood.

  4. 4

    Network activation campaign

    Your warm-contact map, the message sequences, and the referral asks, sequenced so the right 25 people hear a clear story in the first weeks.

  5. 5

    Sales assets and proposals

    The one-page offers, proposal templates, and case study formats, so closing never waits on a blank document again.

  6. 6

    The platform, loaded

    Your plan, pipeline tracker, outreach calendar, and follow-through system set up inside Unleash Your Ideas so execution continues after handover.

This is not a course on consulting. It is your practice, designed with you by a team that turns expertise into offers every day, handed over with your first 90 days already scheduled.

Yes, you are smart enough to work all of this out yourself.

That was never in question. The question is whether working it out over twelve slow months, while savings drain and contacts cool, is a better trade than having it designed in weeks and spending the year billing. You already know how you would advise a client facing that math.

Want this built faster?

You can research, plan, test, rewrite, organize, and figure this out on your own. Or you can have Unleash Your Ideas turn your idea into a clear execution plan: the audience, the offer, the business model, the launch strategy, and the next steps, mapped with you. This is for people who are serious about execution.

What buying speed actually avoids

The mistakeWhat happens
A year of underpricingA market anchored at rates that take years to raise
Fuzzy positioningA warm network that never sends a single referral
Custom proposals for every leadWeeks of unpaid writing for deals that never close
Improvised sales conversationsSenior expertise discounted in the first meeting

Any one of these quietly costs more than the buildout. Together they are the standard first year, and they are optional.

The revenue lines we build toward

  • Fixed-fee diagnostics feeding the core engagement
  • Project engagements at premium fixed prices
  • Monthly advisory retainers for recurring revenue
  • Fractional executive days with two or three companies
  • Training, workshops, and speaking that generate inbound leads

Questions

Good to know.

What does it cost?

The Idea Execution Blueprint starts from $5,000. Launch Buildouts run $15,000 to $25,000, and the full Venture Buildout runs $35,000 to $50,000 depending on scope, speed, and level of support. Which tier fits gets settled on the strategy call, and nothing is charged before we agree on scope together.

Do you find the clients and do the consulting for me?

We design and set up the machine: your positioning, offers, pricing, pipeline system, platform, and marketing assets. You remain the consultant and the face of the practice, because clients are buying you. Where a build needs deep specialist work, like design or technical setup, it is delivered through vetted partners that our team manages, so you always deal with one team.

Is there a cheaper way to do this?

Yes, and we will point you to it honestly: the platform walks you through the same decisions yourself, starting free, at /start-a-consulting-business. This page is for people whose runway math says weeks matter more than dollars.

I have not left my job yet. Is it too early?

It is the ideal time. Building the practice while employed means you resign into a designed business with warm conversations already moving, instead of starting the design work the day the salary stops.

What happens after I apply?

Our team reviews your application, and if we can genuinely help, you book the strategy call directly from the confirmation screen. Qualified applicants typically hear back the same day.

Your network is warmest today. It cools from here.

Apply, tell us your background and your income target, and find out exactly what your consulting practice buildout would look like. The call costs nothing. The slow first year costs the anchor price of your entire practice.
