How to Become a Million Dollar Consultant with Alan Weiss

My guest today is Alan Weiss - one of the world's most highly sought-after consultancy experts. Alan's impressive list of clients include such well-known brands as Mercedes-Benz, Merck, Hewlett-Packard, New York Times and over 200 others.

Alan is also a best-selling author of 64 books. One his most famous books - “Million Dollar Consulting” - has been through five editions and appears in 12 languages around the world.

I invited Alan to be a guest on my show to discuss how to build a thriving consultancy. I wanted to get his POV on what role branding plays in that process. And I was curious to learn about value-based fees and why more businesses should adopt this concept.
