Frequently Asked Questions

Small business consulting involves expert advice and strategies to help businesses improve their operations, increase profitability, and achieve their goals. Consultants work closely with business owners to identify challenges, develop solutions, and implement effective practices that drive growth and efficiency. 

The cost of a business consultant varies depending on the scope of the project, the consultant’s experience, and the duration of the engagement. Fees can range from hourly rates to fixed project prices. Discussing your needs with a consultant to get a tailored quote that aligns with your budget is essential. 

Business consultants analyse a company’s operations, identify areas for improvement, and provide actionable recommendations. They may assist with business strategy, market positioning, process optimisation, financial management, etc. Their role is to guide businesses towards achieving their objectives with expertise and practical solutions. 

Hiring a business consultant is often worth the investment, as they bring specialised knowledge and an outside perspective that can significantly improve performance, efficiency, and profitability. Their expertise can help you avoid costly mistakes and ensure your business is on the right path. 

Small businesses and non-profits often need more resources and tight budgets. Consultants provide the expertise required to overcome these challenges, offering strategies for growth, efficiency, and sustainability. They help organisations focus on their core missions while ensuring compliance and operational success

Consultants should have relevant qualifications in business, law, finance, or related fields. Equally important is their experience; a good consultant should have a proven track record of helping businesses achieve their goals, with expertise and a deep understanding of your challenges. 

One potential disadvantage is the cost, which can be significant for small businesses. Additionally, if a consultant doesn’t fully understand your business or industry, their recommendations may not be practical. Choosing a consultant with the right expertise and a clear understanding of your goals. 

The consulting process typically involves an initial assessment, where the consultant gathers information about your business. This is followed by analysis, where challenges and opportunities are identified. The consultant then develops a strategy, implements solutions, and provides ongoing support to achieve the desired outcomes. 

Consultants should avoid making decisions without thoroughly understanding your business, imposing their solutions without collaboration, or focusing solely on short-term gains at the expense of long-term sustainability. A good consultant works with you, not just for you. 

A bad consultant lacks relevant experience, fails to listen to client needs, and offers generic solutions that don’t fit the business’s specific challenges. Poor communication, lack of follow-through, and one who prioritises short-term revenue gains over the long-term health of your business. By focusing solely on boosting profits, they may neglect other critical aspects of your operation, such as risk management, compliance, and sustainable growth. This narrow approach can put your business at significant risk, as it fails to address the interconnected challenges that must be managed to ensure lasting success. A good consultant takes a holistic approach, considering all facets of your business to deliver balanced, sustainable results that support your long-term goals.

Fair Work Lessons-Avoiding Costly Compliance Mistakes

The MyCRA Lawyers case highlights non-compliance risks with Fair Work laws, even for businesses grounded in legal expertise. This case, involving unfair dismissal claims and covert workplace monitoring, serves as a wake-up call for small businesses.
The Fair Work Commission ruled against MyCRA Lawyers, determining that the legal assistant was an employee—not a contractor—and that the firm failed to follow procedural fairness in handling performance concerns. The firm’s covert surveillance practices raised additional privacy concerns, further undermining its position.
This case offers valuable lessons for employee classification, performance management, and workplace privacy. Small businesses can avoid similar pitfalls by implementing clear policies, ensuring compliance with privacy laws, and seeking expert advice on employment practices.
