Imagine having a high paying career where executives turn to you for direction in running their businesses. As a business consultant you will help businesses and other organizations identify problems, and you will recommend solutions to those problems.

About a Career as a Business Consultant

Business consultants are respected and relied upon in every industry in every country. Consultants are admired for both their expertise and their independence. As a business consultant (also known as a management consultant) you can choose to specialize in a variety of areas, including:

  • communications consulting
  • e-business consulting
  • human resources consulting (HR consulting)
  • operations consulting
  • marketing consulting
  • organizational development consulting
  • small business consulting
  • strategic planning consulting
  • technology consulting (IT consulting)
  • any other areas organizations need professional advice

According to research from Harvard Business School, the business consulting industry generates about $100 billion in annual revenues from U.S. consultants. Especially in a slow economy, companies need business consultants to help them increase revenues and cut costs.

It is no wonder business consultants are among the most highly paid professionals. According to a report at CNNMoney, the median salary for management consultants is $117,000, Self-employed business consultants may earn $35 to $400 per hour depending on their market.

As long as you have the desire, you can become a business consultant. No special education is necessary to break into this career and succeed. (According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 28% of consultants do not have a degree of any kind.)
