That's what Derek does - help pull out those nuggets of wisdom that, when you hear them repeated back to you make you think, 'Wow. I do know what I'm talking about after all!'. That wouldn't be possible without his humble, curious approach and good interview questions."

        Message from Derek Little

        Marketing consulting services can be extremely challenging. Buyers may not be clear on their problem. They may have never hired a consultant like you before and aren't clear on what they need. But if you engage around topics of mutual interest and give them crucial information based on their needs, you can build a relationship and trust. These are prerequisites to getting hired. We do all the matching so experts and attendees can enjoy a mutually beneficial event. To get started as a Featured Expert, subscribe and complete our questionnaire.
