In order to ensure that you hire a consulting firm that meets your expectations, you should ask them the following questions when you schedule a consultation with them:
- What is your specialty? You are looking for an answer that aligns itself to an area of expertise that will provide the real experience and knowledge to achieve your goal. There is no use hiring someone who is not familiar with your industry.
- Are they respected in their industry and by their clients? A strong consulting firm is happy to put you in touch with satisfied clients that will boast about their performance. A genuine reference is worth its weight in gold and will assist you in your decision process.
- What kind of support do they provide once the project is completed? You need to know their deliverables up front and what is and is not included in their contract for ongoing engagement or support after the project.
