Independence
Small business consultants are independent, which means that they can bring a fresh, external perspective to your business. Because they have no close connection to your company, they can focus on what your goals are, identify any problems your business might have toward reaching those goals, and develop plans to overcome any obstacles. Because they are separate from your company, they are not swayed or impacted by office politics, internal events, or policies.
Cost Effective
Rather than hiring a full-time employee to complete these tasks and providing them with office space, benefits, equipment, and more, you eliminate those costs when you hire a small business consultant, paying only their fees.
Growth
To grow your company locally, regionally, nationally, or even globally takes a dedicated plan from the very beginning. Small business consultants can complete an analysis of your business, your competition, survey your customers, discover new target markets, do user testing, and more. This work helps identify competition you might not have known about, as well as finding new opportunities that might otherwise be missed.
Creativity
Not being bound by company means that a business consultant can bring creative solutions to your company's current problems to meet your goals. Their objectivity allows them to approach issues with a new insight and fresh strategies that may quickly take your business to the next level.
Knowledgeable
Small business consultants are trained - and continue to get new training - in order to provide the best, most up-to-date information for their clients, allowing them to suggest new trends that will put you ahead of your competition.
Best Practices
A small business consultant's advice will always be rooted in your industries' best practices, as they will have information regarding the best brands, processes, operations, and strategies for your industry through research and experience. They will use this knowledge and their connections to help you improve customer loyalty, target markets, cut costs, and more.
Scalability
Business consultants are generally well versed in new digital technologies, so they can make recommendations that will easily scale your business, improving user experience, user interfaces, design, features, and more.

SMALL BUSINESS LEGAL PLANS
We also provide support beyond the launch of your business. Our Small Business Legal Plans offer unlimited legal advice for common business situations. Our Small Business Legal Plans allow you to call your provider attorney to get legal advice on an unlimited number of legal matters pertaining to your small business. Starting a small business means that you are going to have legal questions. Wouldn't it be great to just be able to pick your phone and call or send a message to an experienced, dedicated attorney and get answers to those questions?
Once your business is up and running, there will be times when you need to run something by an experienced legal professional, such as sales contracts, lease agreements, hiring employees, and more. With the small business legal plan, you will be able to submit legal business documents up to 15 pages each for your attorney to review, download and use document templates created by our lawyers and then have them reviewed by your attorney for feedback, and your attorney can write letters and make phone calls on your behalf.
As your business grows, your Small Business legal subscription plan will continue to support your small business. You get one hour of legal research on each matter included at no additional fee. This does not include Designated Consultations on certain areas of the law or out of state matters; these issues are covered by three Designated Consultations included with your plan each year, up to 30 minutes each. And, with our Small Business Plus and Small Business Pro plans, you're even covered for legal support during IRS audits or representation in a trial if your business is sued.
The Small Business Legal Subscription plan will more than pay for itself the first time you use it. And, since our plans start at just $49 per month, having access to a qualified, experienced, dedicated small business lawyer is a priceless benefit to your business that is within budget.
