When marketing experts talk, loads of information is often shared.

Recently I interviewed Kyle Tully and discussed best practices for offline business consulting firms. Our views on were remarkably similar.

Hearing or reading interviews with experts is a great way to glean information about their techniques, and in this one I found common ground with Tully, as we both agreed that having a modicum of experience in the field of marketing is vital for building an offline business consulting practice.

To be a successful offline business consultant, you've got to know all the ins and outs of the traditional marketing industry, while keeping an eye to the future by keeping abreast with recent developments in the online marketing scene.

When you go into offline business consulting, what you're basically doing is helping businesses successfully market their goods and services through traditional means of communication, such as print, television and radio. Guerrilla marketing, a new take on traditional marketing is also becoming a key component of offline business consulting.

Guerrilla marketing is an exciting new frontier in traditional marketing as it allows for efficient use of limited resources to take a business's message to a broad audience.

A key part of any offline business consulting practice is the establishment of recurring fee business. By establishing a good relationship with businesses and finding continued needs for your services, you can create a steady stream of income for your business.

This keeps you from having to constantly look for new business, allowing you to increase your profits and security.

Get the fundamentals right

A basic understanding of the fundamentals of traditional marketing methods is key to being successful as an offline business consultancy. Offline business consulting professionals should have a broad base of knowledge concerning traditional marketing in order to give them a better chance of impressing potential clients.

Both Kyle and I recommend Dan Kennedy's 'No BS' books as another invaluable resource for folks wanting to become a consultant.

With so many offline businesses wanting to get an edge on their competition, the time is ripe for anyone with drive to learn how to get the basics, and learn the ropes.

Good offline business consultancies are rare, and it is possible to pick and choose which services you wish to offer. In order to succeed however, you need to get good training, make an effort to really understand your client's business services and objectives, and play to your strengths.
