Starting a Consulting Practice

If you're considering going into business for yourself, this is the place for you. The 4D Consulting Center has all the information you need to get on the road to a successful consulting career.

Throughout this center, we have listed resources for a representative sampling of states: California, Illinois and Massachusetts. Most other states maintain their own web sites outlining appropriate information for starting a business in that state. Please refer to the web sites of those states for further information specific to that state.

Being a consultant can will bring both great rewards and great challenges. With the tools you find on this site, you will be prepared to go forth and conquer.

Let's get started...

Getting the Business
Your first meeting with a client is very important. Great listening and sales skills will be critical.

The perfect brochure, the coolest looking business cards will not get the business. YOU will get the business. And you can.
Running Smoothly
Once you're up and running, you need to establish yourself as an independent contractor. You'll need to start keeping records, and purchase insurance.
