Hello Friend, Consulting is a different business model than selling products. You are basically selling knowledge instead of something that can be physically handled. Yet in some ways it is very similar. Knowledge, while not physical, does involve time. You must spend time to acquire new knowledge and often money to go to seminars, classes, or to read magazines and books. You also have billable time during which you share that knowledge with clients. This is what you are actually selling, knowledge that takes time and money to acquire.

Often consultants feel like they must discount to price match the competition, but you must decide if that is the market you want. As a consultant you deal with different clients. Each client has his or her own issues. While the issues may be similar, each case will be unique. Your job as a consultant is to solve problems and guide the company as necessary.
