Module 9 Lecture
Self-Promotion Mediums
Self-promotion for a consultant may require the ability to find
opportunities for pro-bono
speeches, and submitting press releases, writing advertisements,
designing a web site, and
deciding upon which networking opportunities to capitalize.
The following are some
advertising mediums and how to take advantage of them.
• Pro-bono speeches and press releases are great, low cost ways
to showcase skills.
• While advertisements don’t typically bring in sales, they do
help to create an image.
The more you can get your name in the paper, the better—this is

6. called branding.
• A web site is essential in today's market, as it helps with
branding. Clients expect
consultants to have a web site. Web sites replace brochures in
many ways and are a
passive way of generating leads.
• Business Networking International (BNI) is a well established
organization similar to
Rotaries but the focus is on lead generation.
The effectiveness of each medium can be determined by
identifying the target market and
how effectively each medium can reach this target.
Sales and Pricing
Sales starts with prospecting for new customers. A sale is a
process, not a onetime event.
Sales is a numbers game; therefore, having an optimistic
outlook can assist a business
owner as she or he receives rejection from potential customers.
Prospecting: This is, as mentioned previously, a numbers game.
Hence, “if you make the
contacts, you will do the business” (Vogel, 2005, p. 47).
Prospecting may include making

7. cold calls, delivering pro-bono speeches, going on informational
interviews, working a
sphere of influence (see module 10 for more information),
and/or networking.
Setting the Fee: The consultant should benchmark to set charges
including per hour, per
day, or per ½ day charges. They must ask how much other
consultants charge in the area
and industry. There are different way to determine fees.
However, charging too little reflects

badly upon the credibility of the consultant, but charging too
much may prevent contracts
from being made.

8. Inner and Outer SOI
There is a saying that goes like this: “It is not what you know; it
is who you know and
how you use them .” This module helps identify personal SOI
and utilize it to its fullest
potential.
There is another saying that goes like this: “The average person
knows about 150
people that will be with you when you are wed or dead!” This is
the sphere of influence
of a consultant! Unfortunately, only about ¼ will need his or
her services and about ¼ of
that quarter will hire them. That’s about 10 sales over the
lifetime of the business, but
definitely not enough to stay in business. How can a consultant
capitalize on their
sphere of influence in other ways?
A common activity to help a consultant determine who they are
trying to reach is for
them to draw a small circle in the middle of a piece of paper—
this is their SOI. Then
they draw a bigger circle around the smaller circle—this is their
SOI’s SOI. This outer
circle is who they are trying to reach. For example: imagine that
Sam used to be a sales
trainer for a real estate franchise. Sam's inner circle consists of
the franchisees that
recognize his name
when he calls. All of these people are in the real estate
business, but Sam cannot

9. survive by focusing on just one industry. However, each of
these real estate
professionals know mortgage officers, home inspectors,
cleaning crews, lawyers, title
searchers, insurance agents, and so on. By asking each real
estate professional to
provide him with the name of one other person in each area,
Sam will have credibility
when he calls the new person. Also, if Sam has done business
for one industry and that
industry is connected to another industry, he has a better
chance of being seen as
credible. It is the “who do you know?” game. Who does the
consultant know that might
have a need for his or her services? Who does the consultant
know that might be
interested in meeting him or her for a cup of coffee?
