Imagine being paid thousands to fly to New York and consult for a company a couple of hours per day. The real question is: - What would be your expertise if a company did pay you to fly to NYC? I know it can seem scary to consult for a company overseas, but you'd be amazed how straightforward it actually is + the pay is pretty great too. For example, from 2014 to 2019 I was paid every single year to fly to NYC and focus on sales transformation for a few different companies. - I didn't have any formal education (no MBA or masters degree) - A couple of years earlier, I didn't have a single client and had no clue how to find the first one - I wasn't a former CEO or director with a wealth of business knowledge But, I knew one thing inside out. - Sales transformation Fortunately, companies are willing to pay BIG to help with their sales. I remember checking out of one hotel where I stayed for 3 weeks (right next to the Empire State Building) and the receptionist said "here's your receipt for your stay sir". It was $17,000! The best moment though was when she said "that's all paid up, you're good to go". Yep - as a consultant EVERYTHING is covered, I even had a $500 per day budget for expenses. BACK TO YOU. - What expertise could you be highly paid for to help companies? - What's stopped you up to this point? - What's your biggest fear about taking your expertise to companies? - How would you like to travel to destinations all over the world to help companies? Looking back, I've been paid 50+ times to travel overseas including: - Consulting in Dubai (5 times) - 2 weeks in Milan helping a company with sales leadership - Visited 21 cruise ships across 30+ countries earlier this year to roll out my sales methodology - Flew to Ghana to help an oil company several times - Been to Amsterdam more times than I can count to help a cool IT company That's my hyper short list, but there's one thing in common with every single overseas consulting gig.
