Are you thinking about 'taking the Leap' into HIGH INCOME CONSULTING?
Details of a new 5-Part program that sets you up for Six Figure Income potential ...
WELCOME!
I'm sure you have your own personal reasons right now for exploring ‘the leap’ into consulting:
Despite your impressive work history and qualifications, you can't even get job interviews anymore. (Of if you do, you're always 'too experienced' right?)
After years putting in a fair day's work, you yearn for the freedom of a work-from-home lifestyle - as long as you can keep earning six figures.
You could retire, but "retire and you die" isn't your aim. (And let's face it, consulting could be fun, and the extra income wouldn't go astray either.)
The GFC has put a big hole in your Super, and continuing to earn six figures for a few more years would solve some big worries for you.
Consulting could be your 'foot in the door’ to a new permanent position if the right opportunity came along.
You've looked at self-employed consulting before, but feel there's too much risk without the right credible, proven and professional support mechanisms behind you.
Well, you definitely qualify for the 'Age of Experience'!
The 'Taking the Leap' into HIGH INCOME CONSULTING program was created for exactly you ... specifically for those with 'grey hair' who are seeking high level professional support and a proven consulting business model.
Why NOW? …
As you'll discover in our Free Information Pack, right now there's a huge potential in the marketplace.
Corporates and SMEs (literally in their tens of thousands) desperately need help to fix their day-to-day operational problems .. to increase their efficiencies, to improve their competitiveness, to improve their systems and to grow their sales and profitability ...
Think for a moment what opportunities these trends might suggest for you as a self-employed consultant?:
- Do you have the know-how to increase productivity and reduce wastage?
- Do you have expertise in production line technologies to lower unit costs and lift output?
- Are you one of those (rare) people - engineers, IT, systems specialists - who are technical and also PROactive and solutions focused, skilled in uncovering problems companies themselves can't see?
- Could you bring an outside perspective on how to rein in overheads and tighten cash flow?
- Are you adept at strategies to retain customers and grow a client base?
- Do you have the expertise to develop competitive advantages in their increasingly commoditised marketplace?
- Is putting systems to often chaotic sales and enquiry handling your strength?
- Can you create and implement client nurturing strategies for companies missing out on the full purchasing potential of their clients?
- Do you have the specialist knowledge to source and promote other products and services?
- Are you that someone with corporate wisdom who can ‘step back’ and review an organisation's sales letters, proposals, brochures and corporate collateral, and improve their communications?
- Could you help companies that often don’t even know how exposed they are to comply with workplace and contract agreements and other HR issues?
- Is your niche in consolidating finances and renegotiating leases?
- Is your track record in helping get organisations ‘investor ready’ for selling, or in succession planning, or in project managing an MBO or capital raising?
… and so on. It’s a long list.
But beware the trap of false expectations.
Now as heady as that goldmine of untapped potential may sound, actually getting out and generating a consulting income ... especially a consistent income in SIX FIGURES, isn't going to happen 'just like that'.
It isn't going to happen without a strategic plan, without a proven SYSTEM for optimising and predicting your consulting income, without a lead generation marketing plan, and without mastering the special skills that allow you to 'leap' into success instead of floundering and failing.
Even if you have contacts who can ‘feed’ you work right off the bat, that is NOT going to sustain you long term.
That's where those 'failures' you hear about happen. Aspiring consultants try to 'take the leap' with no strategy for building a pipeline of future business, no structured sales process for converting enquiries into lucrative clients, no system for leveraging their time, no diagnostic methodology to uncover consulting opportunities, and no rock solid delivery process.
However ... what if you had the certainty of success?
What if you had a proven pathway that you KNEW with certainty would leapfrog your knowledge and your 'grey hair' experience straight into a rock solid consulting BUSINESS? What if you knew you could ramp up your success and your consulting income … using proven building blocks of success?
Building a High Income Consulting Business …
The Age of Experience Business Academy has developed a 5-Part Consulting 'Launchpad' that sets you up for a six figure income potential.
Those 5 Parts are:
- The ‘primer’ Home Study Course – ‘How to Build Your Self-Employed Consulting Business’. You complete this 'primer' course at home in your own time, (PRIOR to attending Part 2, the Incubator Workshop). The comprehensiveness of the video modules and support materials and workbooks will take your breath away. It was originally delivered over 12 weeks. However, we’ll arrange special ‘fast track access’ to the entire course when you come on board. ALL 12 modules will be delivered to your inbox over four intensive weeks. A lot of ‘homework’ to do, but the home study modules become your ‘starting blocks’ in preparation for …
- The 3-Day Incubator Workshop – This is a life-changing three days. Don’t expect to see a lectern, or lots of PowerPoint slides or speaker’s notes at this Incubator. It is a seriously ‘sleeves-rolled-up’, highly personalised working incubator where you’ll gain hands-on skills, you'll develop collateral for your marketing, crystallize your positioning as an authoritative expert in your field, develop your diagnostic and presentation skills, learn how to automate the marketing of ‘YOU’, and every other facet necessary to get you ready for when the ‘rubber hits the road’ in your consulting. You’ll be part of an intimate group of like-minded individuals from around the country, all intently focused on honing their skills. Be aware, with such a huge agenda, we will start early and go late each day. AND there will be ‘homework’ to do in the evenings too. What is assured is that as you leave the incubator environment, you’ll not only be pumped and primed for action, you'll be a long way into building your 'business-in-a-box' consultancy.
- Hands-on help from our team of specialists to have all your marketing ‘collateral’ prepared and ready to go before taking the leap. After the workshop, you'll have our help in developing your lead generation pieces, reviewing your templates for your proposals and covering letters, your online presence, your special reports … right down to advice on the design and wording on your business card. (We don’t do it all FOR you. We do it collaboratively WITH you. That way you learn yet another skill.) Rest assured, you’d pay five or eight thousand dollars elsewhere to get all this, yet it is included in your course fee. Pure gold. Your collateral becomes your personalised, highly professional springboard into the market.
- Getting you ‘out there’ – Winning your first client can be exhilarating if not slightly intoxicating! But one client isn’t going to sustain a six-figure income. That comes from having a ‘marketing machine’ constantly running in the background. So we’ll be there for you to help create yours. We’ll coach you AND we'll be your ‘conscience’! After all, consulting can be a lonely business. That goes double for the behind-the-scenes grind-work you need to put in, to ramp up to a higher income earning potential. And there’s nothing like having someone with you on your journey who knows exactly what you’re going through, encouraging you along.
- Tapping into the power of the Age of Experience Network – Nothing sounds sweeter than the idea of ‘making money while you sit on a beach somewhere’. And even though your consulting revenue will initially be driven by your own efforts, there will increasingly be opportunities amongst your fellow ‘graduates’ within the Age of Experience Network for building a passive income stream. Those opportunities will arise more often than you think. As your clients build their faith in your judgement, they’ll look to you more and more for advice and help on finding others who can address other issues within their organisation. And you can legitimately earn a referral fee for doing the groundwork and validation to bring the parties together. As well, the diagnostic tools you’ll receive at the Incubator Workshop will put at your fingertips, opportunities to proactively uncover ‘gaping holes’ in the processes of your client companies. The possibilities for passive income expand the more you look for them. This may be down the track … but the Network and the resources will be there for you when you’re ready.

7 Pillars of Consulting Success
To help you fully appreciate the philosophy behind this system, here are the 7 Pillars to Consulting Success that underpin the Age of Experience Business Academy Consulting Program.
Pillar #1: ‘Packaging YOU’
‘Packaging’ YOU may sound like a strange place to start. But look at it this way. It’s fair to assume you already have high level expertise in your field. And over your years of ‘grey hair’ experience, you’ve been hard at it delivering results for the organisations you’ve worked for. And whether you realise it or not, that experience has prepared you for high income consulting. That is, once you unlock the secret to how you can use your skills to add MASSIVE VALUE to corporates and small businesses.
Now you could counter this by saying OTHER people could claim the same about themselves. And therefore, how do you SET YOURSELF APART?
‘Packaging YOU’ is a process that drills down to the VERY specific things you ‘bring to the table’. Together, we’ll dissect it, define the value of each component of it, and then reconstruct it into a powerfully articulated ‘product’ that catapults you into DEMAND in the marketplace.
Through the Age of Experience Business Academy, you’ll learn ways to do this that will get your adrenalin surging. Bear in mind, we work WITH you to articulate and present your ‘packaged expertise’. Once you see the power of this, you begin to see why your ‘leap’ into consulting need never be a blind leap of faith.
Pillar #2: Marketing ‘YOU’
Let’s face it. Even some highly competent consultants struggle to get their reputation known. They end up sitting and waiting for the phone to ring, not knowing where to go next. They lose belief in themselves. Not because they don’t have VALUE to give. It’s because they lack the marketing process and tools that would so easily position them as an authority within ‘their’ niche market.
Marketing ‘YOU’ is a major component in our course. Far from text book ‘theory’, it is the creation of powerful marketing collateral that positions you in your niche market – with professionalism others can only dream about. This expert input during the course will be worth pure gold to you.
Pillar #3: Finding High Level Clients
Finding clients and ‘selling’ their own services is unquestionably amongst the greatest fears of consultants generally. They’re GREAT in their field. But they struggle to sell themselves.
Not you. You’ll have everything you’ll ever need to know to generate leads with confidence. Inexpensively. Professionally. You’ll have a complete toolkit of methods. Tools to build your ever growing prospect base.
Recently, we demonstrated the power of this by producing 370 qualified leads from one strategy. At a few dollars per lead. And because the process happens automatically – day and night - it builds your prospect list even while you’re out there consulting and generating fees.
Pillar #4: Prospects Pre-disposed to working with you
The fourth pillar is a system for seamlessly converting enquirers into clients over the phone. You’ll learn a special way to handle each enquiry call so you almost guarantee an appointment if you want one. Never again will you fall for the “Send me some information and I’ll get back to you” routine.
You’ll discover why that is the LAST thing you should do, and how to avoid this mistake that costs consultants potential clients every day. Clients who could have been worth $5,000 or $50,000 in consulting fees.
Pillar #5: Setting up a whole pipeline of future Consulting
Naturally, the lead time for a company to engage your consulting services can be weeks or months. A step-by-step process for nurturing and building your trust levels with these enquirers is a critical part of your six figure income strategy. You’ll learn how and when to communicate with them, what developments to bring up at each step, and when to follow up. In other words, you’ll create a system to methodically convert prospects into future lucrative clients.
Pillar #6: How to sell without … “selling”
Let’s face it. If you’re going to consult, you’re going to have to ‘sell’ yourself and your solutions at the highest levels. But here’s something of a breakthrough. You will learn why you won’t have to SELL in the way most consultants try to sell themselves. Instead, you’ll practice a highly ethical, highly authoritative (and disarmingly simple) approach to ‘selling’ that takes away any hint of ‘hard sell’, and puts you totally IN CONTROL at every step in the interactions with a client.
You’ll set up meetings with confidence, be on equal footing with key management, and secure consulting projects with seamless ease. If you are comfortable selling now, you’ll find this approach THE most powerful, ethical and time efficient approach you’ve ever come across.
Pillar #7: Charging what you once thought were ‘huge’ fees
Most consultants fail to realise what they’re truly worth. And as a result, they undercharge. You’ll discover why your ability to charge huge fees has got everything to do with your ability to educate and extrapolate the outcomes through your consultative solutions. It’s about knowing how to reposition your value, not about the hours you put in.
You’ll learn why one consultant can walk out of a client meeting having quoted a fee even TWICE that quoted by another and still win the business.
What’s more, you’ll learn how to position your services and your professionalism so you get paid UP FRONT. No waiting 30 or 60 days to be paid. No having to go cap in hand asking for your fee. Instead, you’ll specify money up front and get it – up front. Interestingly, you’ll discover it not only solves your ‘money worries’, it empowers you to deliver even MORE value to the client. A huge win-win.

“This all sounds great … but WHY do I need to do a whole program?”
Why should you have to complete a ‘program’ at all? Can’t you simply print a business card, make some phone calls to your old business contacts, and … well, start?
Well, if you want to scrape along in a scary and uncertain existence, you can.
Seriously though, don’t assume your ‘old contacts’ are going to deliver you actual WORK. Promises to ‘put you in touch with someone’ are nice, but promises don’t pay the bills. Even if they do introduce you, it’s naïve to believe this will deliver enough work to build a long term six figure income business around.
Too many aspiring consultants who’ve ‘taken the leap’ into uncertainty on the strength of promises and faith rapidly find their funds drying up. And then desperation kicks in. It’s not a place to be. Not a way to ‘plan’ a business. You need to have absolute confidence that while the ramp up period will take time, (six months even), you’ll be in control of your destiny. And of your own prospect lead generation. In short, your 'safety net' is to know how to succeed at fast track marketing BEFORE you ‘leap’.
Without a ‘consulting SYSTEM’ to underpin your plans, you’ll struggle. We’re not talking about your knowledge within your own area of expertise. The need for THAT is a given. Rather, we’re talking about your knowledge in how to impress prospective clients so much with your skills, you ‘blow their minds’.
As just one example of that ‘blow their minds’ ability, you’ll learn an outside-the-box way of thinking that almost no consultants understand that will enable you to uncover opportunity everywhere within an organisation.
$800,000 ‘found’ in 10 minutes …
In one consulting session for example, we uncovered $800,000 in additional revenue potential for a small business owner. Do you think THAT ‘blew his mind’?
Rest assured it did.
Previously, the business was struggling to make a profit. Finding that hidden revenue potential probably saved his business. Along with his house and his marriage.
But the extraordinary bit. This consulting ‘know how’, this life changing turnaround, took ten minutes to uncover OVER THE PHONE. Clearly, this business person was astute. But he’d been way too close to his business.
It’s by knowing where to look and the diagnostic process to uncover it that counts. And the strategy took less than 5 days to implement. You’ll shake your head at the simplicity of it.
Imagine if you went into a company, identified an opportunity within YOUR area of expertise, and you knew how to demonstrate how it could be applied across ten departments in the company.
You could conceivably add millions to their bottom line, couldn’t you?
The point is your VALUE has nothing to do with the hours put in. And neither have the fees you can ethically charge when you master this value-based mindset.
Importantly, this is not about ‘ripping anyone off’. It’s about knowing how to educate a client, conservatively and methodically, to the outcomes.
What’s the next step?
You’ve read this far, so it’s reasonable to assume you’re somewhat serious about ‘taking the leap’ into high income consulting.
As yet you may be unconvinced as to whether the Age of Experience Business Academy Consulting Program holds the key for you. And that is as it should be.
