FAQS

You're great at consulting.

BUT,
you feel shaky as a business owner.

You know you're great at what you do as a consultant.

As soon as you land a client, you're off to the races.

But getting clients feels uncomfortable and unclear.

You don't like selling yourself.

So you procrastinate and delay until you're stuck taking on the lower-paying, less strategic work that comes across your desk.

You want a predictable, fulfilling consulting business.

You know what you need to do, but you're not sure how to do it. It feels so much harder to do for your own business even when you're an expert for your client's businesses.

  • You've tried to be consistent with your business development activities.
  • You've tried to rework your consulting offers so you're not trading time for money.
  • You've promised yourself you'll prioritize working on your business.

But, you're not where you want to be with your consulting business.

  • You keep repeating the same things and getting the same results.
  • You can't escape this plateau.
  • You're likely questioning if this roller coaster you're on is sustainable.

Running an independent consulting business doesn't have to be this way.

You can have it all if you know what you want and are willing to change your approach...

because, as Marshall Goldsmith famously said,

"What got you here won't get you there."

WHAT YOU WANT IS WITHIN YOUR REACH.

I KNOW THIS BECAUSE I'VE BEEN THERE MYSELF

  • I launched my independent consulting business 11 years ago. And, for the first ~6 years, I struggled.
  • I was taking work that came to me from my network.
  • And, I was overworking, undercharging, not fulfilled, and constantly sacrificing family and personal time to keep my clients happy.
  •  I hit rock bottom the day I was parked on the side of the road to take a client call from the hood of my car while my three crying/fighting boys were inside strapped in their seatbelts.
  • I wanted to make more money, work less, and do work that was valuable and fulfilling.
  • I hired my first coach, and she helped me realize I needed to revamp everything - from what services I was offering, to the types of clients I was targeting, to my lead generation process, to my sales process, and most importantly (although I didn't agree with her at the time...), my self-identity.
  • I figured this out with a lot of trial and error.
  • It took me so much longer than it needed to.
  • And, as a result, I left so much money and free time on the table.

I don't want that to happen to you.

This is why I'm a coach for independent consultants.

Scale-IC Program™️ Roadmap:

TRANSFORM YOUR CONSULTING JOURNEY

Step 1:
Strengthen Your Business Owner Mindset

Why start here?

Because success begins in the mind.

We'll dive deep to uncover where self-doubt or limiting beliefs are holding you back. This is about evolving from just another consultant to a visionary business owner.

You'll learn to think bigger, bolder, and more strategically, ready to tackle the consulting world with a renewed, unstoppable mindset.

 

Step 2:
Cast a Clear Vision

The power of a clear, compelling vision can't be overstated.

Here, we craft your 3-year vision, translating it into actionable 12-month and 90-day plans.

This step ensures your every move is aligned with a larger purpose, steering you precisely toward your goals.

It's the roadmap you need, with each milestone clearly marked.

 

Step 3:
Attract Ideal Clients

Attracting the right clients is both an art and a science.

We refine your services, positioning, pricing, and go-to-market strategy to resonate with your ideal client.

By establishing a tailored business development strategy, you'll know exactly how to fill your pipeline with high-value clients who are a perfect fit.

This step is crucial for building a client base that's not just profitable, but also fulfilling.

Step 4:
Leverage Your Capacity

Growth isn't just about doing more; it's about doing it smarter.

We set up your business processes to maximize your impact without burning out.

This includes setting up systems to protect your energy and ensuring you're investing your efforts effectively.

By identifying and tackling growth barriers, this step ensures your business grows smoothly, without the common pitfalls of overextension.

 

Step 5:
Execute

Here’s where we bring it all together.

You'll implement frameworks that ensure continuous improvement and efficiency in your business.

We establish protocols to prevent scope creep, balance your time between operational and strategic tasks, and ensure your work consistently delivers value.

This final step solidifies your new status: a confident, impactful consultant who predictably lands clients, consistently hits your goals, and enjoys the process.

Hi, I'm Melisa Liberman.

You might say I've been in the trenches just like you. My journey took me from being a corporate consultant at Accenture to building a global consulting team for a SaaS startup. Then, I made the leap into the world of independent consulting and coaching.

For over a decade now, I've been where you are, balancing client work with running a business, and yes, it’s a whole different ball game compared to the corporate world.

My passion is making the complex simple for consultants like you. I've stumbled, learned, and succeeded so you can skip the hard parts and go straight to the success part. With the scale-IC Method™️, I work one-on-one with independent consultants to boost their income, ramp up their impact, and let them enjoy the freedom of working on their terms. Plus, you might catch me on my podcast, the 'Grow Your Independent Consulting Business' Podcast.

My goal today is to help consultants to sidestep the pitfalls that lead to doubt, burnout, or even heading back to a 9-5. I'm here to help you exceed your own expectations so you can embrace the financial rewards, flexibility and freedom that should come with independent consulting.

The scale-IC Program™️ is ideal if you've waved goodbye to the corporate world and already have a couple of clients under your belt. It's for consultants ready to grow a predictable, lucrative business and fully commit to refining their business strategies, processes, and mindset.
