“Consultants of Choice helped me shape something out of nothing and get clarity. Without this support, I would've been bashing around in the dark for a really long time.”

What you’ll
create
If you show up, do the work, and keep your commitment, you’ll leave with the following outputs in hand:
A polished bio
A new professional bio, summing up your experience, expertise and value. (Use this for your LinkedIn profile, the About Me page on your website, guest speaker introductions and outreach emails.)
A snappy tagline
A new headline statement that succinctly captures what you do and who you help. (Use this for your LinkedIn headline, email signature and/or the subheading on your website)
A compelling offer
A clearly defined 1-2 page service offer to pitch to your target market. (Use this to design a brochure, create a landing page, write a proposal or to speak with increased clarity and confidence in sales meetings.)
A sales kickstart
You’ll write a personalised outreach email, direct message or call script and generate your list of prospects to send it to. (Use this to start conversations, set up meetings and convert leads into sales prospects)
Next steps for action
A 30 day action plan to achieve your goals and targets (Use this to manage your calendar, plan your days and weeks, and keep yourself accountable and focused.)
“We came off our first group call and the next day
I had three new client coffees set up!"
“Alicia has created the most outstanding community. It is so supportive, so encouraging. It makes me feel like I'm not in this alone, even as I create a solo gig. We came off of our first group call and the next day I had three new client coffees set up!"

How COC Bootcamp works
Every week, for four weeks, you’ll do the following:
1. Jump online for two early morning sessions
Attend two early morning online sessions each week, starting 5 Feb 2024.
Sessions will run from 10 am – 11 am NZST / 8 am - 9 am AEDT every Monday and Friday for four weeks. Mondays are for learning and planning your weekly action, and Fridays are for debriefing and reviewing your output.
2. Produce and post your deliverable
You’ll produce one of four core Bootcamp deliverables weekly - your bio, service offer, outreach text, and sales list. If you’re a high achiever, you’ll also complete two bonus deliverables: a headline statement and 30-day action plan.
You will post each deliverable in the closed COC community by the deadline for discussion and review.
3. Access practical, focused support
Supercharge your progress with practical templates, swipe files and worksheets to use in Bootcamp and beyond.
Enjoy short videos and bonus resources to deepen your learning and provide a helpful refresh in between sessions.
“Consultants of Choice is for anyone who’s an independent consultant but feeling a bit lonely or at odds with themselves. It’s for anyone who feels they need to do something with their business, but they’re not sure what.”

Bootcamp
benefits
It’s not just what you make - it’s how you make it.
Using the COC Bootcamp approach, you’ll build your confidence in other critical consulting skills that will benefit your business and career for the year ahead.
Practice building in public
Producing and posting your deliverables to your community for review each week doesn't just keep you accountable - it’s great practice for pushing imperfect ideas out into the world with confidence.
Test your ideas quickly and safely
Ideas aren’t much good when they’re stuck in your head. Collaboration with peers and colleagues, with the support of a coach, is the best way to test and improve your thinking.
Banish perfectionism and procrastination
There’s no time for polish. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. By producing and posting deliverables each week, every week, you’ll become more comfortable with ‘good enough’ and see just how fast you can make progress with your business.
Set the scene for a year of progress and momentum
In just four weeks, you can stand up a viable consulting business. Imagine what you could do across the rest of the year, with this foundation in place?!
Make new friends and professional connections
Self-employment can be a lonely business - but it doesn’t have to be! Consultants of Choice is a supportive and welcoming community of your peers, who are all running professional consulting practices. They might just be your new best friends.
Consultants of Choice is for people like me. I really value Alicia's practical, no-nonsense approach to helping me develop my business, my ideas and my ability to communicate them with people.”
