Small businesses need to be acutely aware of their cash flow. This leads to many hiring consultants for specific project work over the more costly and labour-intensive hiring of staff.

When looking to work with a consultant it is important to set clear expectations and understand what you are paying for. As a consultant, you must provide clear deliverables, a proper breakdown of fees and expenses, and check-in points throughout the project.

The relationship between consultants and their clients is both professional and friendly. Sometimes discussions around fees and expectations can be difficult. Alyssa and Dakota provide insights on how they outline these items to be successful both for the client and the consultant.
