How to grow a niche consulting business. Niche consultancy business

Nick Jervis, How To Grow A Niche Consulting Business
Nick Jervis, Niche Consulting Business Specialist
I have been running a niche consulting business since 2003. Coming from the position of solicitor it was obvious at first to focus my niche consultancy business on marketing law firms. That niche consultancy business continues to grow year on year.

The aim of this article is to show you how you can grow your own niche consultancy business.

If you haven’t yet chosen your niche for your consultancy, you might find these articles helpful:

Finding your consulting niche:>>
Choosing your consulting niche:>>

If you already have a niche consultancy, how do you grow it?

1. The money is in the list – still?!?!?

What you absolutely must understand when you are selling a niche consultancy service of any kind is this:

Your clients will rarely wake up in the morning, jump out of bed and say “Today I am going to employ a (insert your niche) consultant!”

Instead, they wake up with a problem that is related to the consulting services that you provide and they head online to start to find some answers to fix that problem.

You must offer solutions to these problems in the form of articles or blogs and at the end of those articles you must offer an ‘item of value’ in exchange for their contact details.

A niche consulting has a Marketing DNA of Nurture, so it is all about growing your email list and offering at least weekly emails in which you prove your understanding of your clients’ needs and problems, then offer them a number of ‘next’ options in each of those emails.

If you run a consulting niche and want to grow it consistently, the money absolutely is in your email list, so long as you consistently grow that email list and communicate with it.
What should your emails say and what should you offer in them? Let’s take a look at that next.

2. What should you say in your weekly emails?

The purpose of your regular emails to your growing email list of potential clients is to do two things:

  1. Prove to your audience that you really are an expert in this niche consulting area; and
  2. Offer them a ‘next step’ to working with you.

You prove your expertise by always remembering to SERVE NOT SELL.

Always put your clients first in your emails and write about the pain or troubles or concerns that they are experiencing, then explain how they can start to work towards fixing them and they will begin to realise that you really do understand them.

Once they realise this, each week some of them will be ready to discover more about how you can help them, so you need to offer them a way to do this.

There should be two main ways that you do this (and you mix them up so that the message is not always the same):

  1. To buy one of your information products or join your membership site; or
  2. Book a ‘free strategy call’ with you. You should never call this a ‘free strategy call’ as that is not very appealing. It needs to have a name that makes them eager to book the call and sells the benefit of what you niche consulting services will do for them. I explain how to do this in the six figure consultancy guide available at the foot of this article.

3. Always Be Growing Your Email List

Once you have parts one and two fixed, it will become so much easier for you to grow your niche consulting business.

I know this from experience – hard earned experience of running a niche consulting business marketing law firms www.samsonconsulting.co.uk since 2003.

You grow your email list by following a regular plan of:

  1. Writing articles that answer the questions your ideal clients are always asking (you get these article ideas from a number of source but one of the best is the free strategy calls you are having with your prospects);
  2. Putting those articles onto your website with a call to action to download your ‘item of value’ to find out more about them; and
  3. Posting a link to that article with an enticing title and the first few sentences on all of your social media platforms (with the intention of growing your email list further still).

Summary

This is practically the only plan anyone needs to grow a niche consulting business. It is the one that I have followed since 2003 and continue to follow to this day.
When you get this plan singing it works beautifully.

To get it singing you need to write the right content, you need to offer the correct free guides, name your strategy call correctly and have a call which proves your expertise but leaves them eager for more so that you can move them onto the next step of working with you.
There is more on each of these things in my 6 Figure Consultancy Guide.

ELLIOTT MYATT, PLAY AREA HYGIENE SERVICES, KINGSBRIDGE.

“Before we started working with Nick, we had no clear idea of our paid traffic strategy.

We knew there were people looking for what we offer, but we just weren’t getting them landing on our website, and when they did, they weren’t converting in the way we wanted them to.

That’s when we enlisted Nick’s help, and it’s made a profound difference both to the number of leads coming into the business, but the quality too.

He’s helped us bring in several very high-quality leads, which will be worth many hundreds of thousands of pounds, as well as helping our website become better and more conversion-focused too.

I couldn’t recommend Nick more highly – if you’re looking for more leads and more sales, it’s a no-brainer to have a conversation.”

CAROLYNE WAHLEN, GAP HR SERVICES, GORING

“I run an HR business dealing with the nasty bits of HR (disciplinaries, grievances, terminations, etc). I have been working with Nick for 12 months now and it has really changed the quality of leads I am getting. My website is now attracting the right type of clients and brings in a lot more quality, and easy to convert, leads. Nick is clear in what the marketing priorities are to get me the results I want. Very easy to work with and cuts to the heart of the matter – no excuses!”

PHIL O’CONNOR, WHITEWELL FINANCIAL PLANNING, BOLTON.

“Nick is an excellent marketing consultant. His knowledge of Google PPC is unparalled. Well worth a chat.Every time I use him my results improve and I make money. Do the sensible thing and pick up the phone to him as you won’t regret it.”

RICHARD LINDEN, THE RENT GUARANTEE COMPANY, HARLOW.

“Before meeting Nick, I was wasting money with Google, I had a high price per click and a trickle of leads. Now, having worked with Nick for 3 months my Google business page is optimised, my price per click is greatly reduced, customers are finding me and quality leads are flowing! Which means, my Google Ads spend is now profitable with a 3:1 return!

That is why I would strongly recommend working with Nick if you want consistent leads and a greater return on your investment – thanks Nick.”

SHAN PHOENIX, GENEVA WEALTH, HARPENDEN

“Nick’s advice and guidance has been excellent. He cuts through all the noise and brings clarity. His focus is on what is effective and what will achieve the objective. He knows what works and what doesn’t and shows you the best way to approach a strategy.

One particular aspect of marketing was hard to get my head around but Nick made everything so clear and easy to understand. When you speak to him you will see, he knows his stuff!

Thanks Nick.”

DAVID AGGISS, THREE SIXTY MORTGAGES, PLYMOUTH.

“After working with Nick on our Google My Business strategy we are now ranking in the “Google 3 pack” and generating leads purely from our ranking! Nick also carried out a fee review resulting in a fee increase of 40% and no detrimental effect to volume. Double whammy with increased leads and increased income. Well worth taking the time to talk to Nick and definitely worth working with him going forward, it’s a no brainer!”

CHARLOTTE LAKEN – COPYWRITER

“Nick’s professional advice, expert knowledge and constant encouragement have proved invaluable this past year. He has helped my business from the outset, offering me support and guidance every step of the way. His services come highly recommended.”

BEN WINTER, BRISTOL WELLNESS PERSONAL TRAINING, BRISTOL.

“Through Nick’s advice and on going encouragement I have almost doubled my client base and am now looking to take on members of staff to deal with the increase in demand for my services. My success has been in no small way facilitated by my business coaching with Nick. I would, and I do, recommend him to anyone who wants to grow their business.”

GINA LONGO

“I found out about Nick and his coaching services from an email recommendation, and I’m happy I did!

Not only is his Mastermind Group Blueprint the complete package when it comes to learning how to create and run a Mastermind group, but his private mentoring is top-notch.

He’s knowledgeable and totally responsive, and he’s been happy to answer even my most off-the-wall questions.

If you get the chance to work with Nick, do it — I highly recommend him.”

Jamie Carroll. Astrologer, Hypnotherapist & Past Life Regressionist

“I would strongly recommend anyone who is building up their business to sign up with Nick and More Clients Academy.

When I signed up with Nick I was completely unsure how to market my new hypnotherapy business and to be honest I also lacked the confidence to market myself. Nick brought an insightful and constructive eye to my business during a couple of very formative online meetings with me. He helped me see what the strengths of my business were, and how to market those strengths clearly and persuasively. He also provided a solid strategy for helping me to build up a following and convert that following into clients.

I often think that success is linked to momentum. If we are building up a feeling of momentum, success often naturally seems to follow. Thanks to Nick I was “in the zone”, building momentum and mentally ready to pounce on the next opportunity that came. And recently it arrived: I have been able to expand my business by getting it affiliated with a leading hypnotherapy school, thus securing a stream of new clients. This has made a really big difference to my quality of life and Nick really played his part in helping me to achieve this.

So yes, More Clients Academy is worth a go. It will sharpen up your business approach. So why not sign up and see where it takes you!”

STEPHEN PRING, ESTATE AGENT

“Nick has been excellent and has consistently given me relevant advice and guidance on many aspects of my business over the past 10 years.

He gives his time very generously, without pressure, and leaves me with great confidence that following his advice will reap rewards – and it has done.

Thank you Nick – I appreciate your time, advice and energy.

Superb.”
