			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>A consultant is an expert with a passion and drive for excellence in a particular field who works as an advisor either to a company or to another individual.</h1>
<p>Consultants are important to companies/organizations and are in high demand because they bring expertise, knowledge, fresh ideas and perspectives to projects. They help implement customized solutions that deliver time &amp; cost savings to clients, allowing their businesses to become more profitable, even during periods of economic uncertainty.</p>
<p>Networking, listening, investigative, and analytical skills are critical to the success of any type of consultant, and the ability to take action to get the job done is the key.<br />
<div class='one_third'>
					<h2>Top 10 Qualities Needed to be a Successful Consultant</h2>
<p>1. Intelligence</p>
<p>2. Flexibility</p>
<p>3. Critical Thinking Skills</p>
<p>4. Reliability</p>
<p>5. Resourcefulness</p>
<p>6. Excellent Communication &amp; Listening Skills</p>
<p>7. Integrity</p>
<p>8. Perseverance</p>
<p>9. Sense of Humor</p>
<p>10. Dedication
				</div></p>
<div class='two_third last'>
					<p>Consultants investigate &amp; identify their clients&#8217; financial challenges, and then evaluate, recommend &amp; implement the safest and most appropriate solutions, designed to protect and secure the client’s business and lifestyle needs. Lastly, but certainly not least, they are confidantes to business owners, with the expertise to deliver the following 3 major benefits to clients:</p>
<p>1. Helping every client solve business &amp; financial challenges through access to an exclusive network of top flight professionals, who are all uniquely positioned to exceed client requirements &amp; expectations</p>
<p>2. Singularly focused on the successful attainment of every client’s lifestyle goals, needs &amp; desires</p>
<p>3. Delivering peace of mind for every client by providing them with wealth protection strategies</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1>How Kiai Consulting can help you</h1>
<p>Because most business owners do not know their degree of exposure to various financial risks and don’t realize that their personal assets are also at risk, until it’s too late.</p>
<p>I interview them using a series of thought provoking questions designed to gather insights about them and how their businesses run, and I am focused on identifying their hidden financial and personal liability risks. I then use my expertise gained from 30+ years of experience in the markets and my outstanding network of resources, to save them time &amp; money by custom designing the most protective solutions available, that affords them continued success in business, lifestyle and peace of mind.</p>

			<h1 style="text-align: center;">Creating Opportunity</h1>
<p><a href="http://kiaicommunications.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/opportunity1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1157" title="opportunity" src="http://kiaicommunications.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/opportunity1.jpg" alt="" width="371" height="312" /></a></p>

			<h2>1. Increase existing wallet share from your existing clients.</h2>
<p>The main tactics to accomplish this strategy are:</p>
<ul>
<li>Segment out the client base and prioritize the client list based on opportunity to increase existing wallet share and assign a point person to each</li>
<li>Schedule within a contact management system to call all key clients and invite them to visit the stores within the next 60 days</li>
<li>The primary goal of the invitations are to:
1) gain a deeper understanding of the customer and their likes/dislikes,
2) introduce new product lines to them
3) set up E commerce opportunities through re-branding
4) obtain referrals to new business from their family, friends &amp; business associates/contacts</li>
</ul>
		</div> 
		<div class='et_slidecontent'>
			<h2>2. Gain introductions to Highly Valued New Client (HVNC) opportunities through key clients.</h2>
<p>Ask for introductions from centers of influence through advocacy and scripting:</p>
<ul>
<li>Review the key client list for referrals – create two lists (clients who have given referrals and those who have not)</li>
<li>Senior staff will ask for introductions from the key relationships once they have received re-branding materials and once the relationship management model is in place</li>
<li>Senior staff will use different scripts and surveys in asking for introductions depending upon the client (i.e. new relationships, prospects, influential community leaders, existing clients who have given referrals and those who have not)</li>
<li>Senior staff will follow up by setting up a meeting in the appropriate store location with the client and the potential client (this could be lunch, dinner, private showings, new product line releases etc.)</li>
<li>Senior staff will be responsible for reporting on the number of introductions asked for, number given, what clients ask for and the results</li>
</ul>
		</div> 
		<div class='et_slidecontent'>
			<h2>3. HVNC seminars &amp; gatherings.</h2>
<p>Hold 6 highly valued new client special release seminars – at retail store locations or at a local restaurant in a private setting</p>
<ul>
<li>Senior staff is responsible for making all arrangements with regards to the new product introduction seminar (including; date, location, funding with product representatives, scheduling with restaurants, follow-up letters and post seminar appointments)</li>
<li>The seminar will be limited to 9 households – each senior staff member is responsible for getting 3 qualified households to the seminar every month – using niche marketing based on analysis of the key client list – a list of target prospects and contact information will be generated for review by month end</li>
<li>The products will vary depending upon the make up of the prospective clients in attendance</li>
<li>The goal of the seminar is to build rapport with new prospective clients and to educate all attendees about the new product releases, as well as, to take deposits to reserve and secure the purchase of these products</li>
<li>Additionally, one on one meetings can be offered and set up with the prospective clients after the seminar</li>
</ul>
