When is the best time to hire a startup consultant?

A business that is about to launch for the first time, undergo a rebranding, or release a new product may benefit from the expertise of a startup consultant. However, you’ll need to carefully consider the cost of hiring this professional. If your business cannot afford the expense, then it’s not the right time. 

When should you listen to your startup consultant?

Although a startup consultant can provide advice, you’ll ultimately have the final say over what changes you make to your business strategy. As a business owner, you’ll need to decide whether or not you trust the startup consultant’s opinion. If you do, then you should listen to their advice. If you have a gut feeling and are okay with taking on more risk, then ignoring the advice of your startup consultant might be the right move. 

How do consultants get paid?

Consultants are paid on an hourly or per-project basis. It’s best to work out the payment terms before moving forward with any particular consultant.
