| Event Description | In the age of a true "flat earth," there are no borders or impediments to consulting worldwide: it's as easy to consult in Kansas as it is in Kuala Lumpur. This makes it possible for solo or small-practice consultants (and those considering independent consulting) to seek the wealth, experience, and gratification of consulting internationally. Join this teleseminar as famed consultants Alan Weiss and Omar Khan, authors of the new book The Global Consultant: How to Make Seven Figures Across Borders, are interviewed by Mike Schultz, publisher of RainToday.com. Alan and Omar will offer advice that will help global consulting newcomers and veterans alike to: - Be nearby from 8,000 miles away—projecting expertise and building relationships remotely
- Create an international presence and offer global value across cultural distinctions
- Avoid real and perceived pitfalls of working beyond your own borders
- Build a business plan for foreign markets
- Prepare yourself for success, sustain your enthusiasm, and make the ongoing sale to yourself, friends, and clients
The authors have a combined experience of 50 years in growing international markets, starting with laborious visas and slow transit, and currently involving high tech and high margin, remote consulting. Take a small amount of your time to learn from two of the most successful international consultants in the world how to become a seven-figure, global consultant. |
