Increase your exposure so that clients can find you
Membership of the Brefi Network starts with an entry in the Consultants, Coaches and Trainers Directory, which can be sorted by your skill set and location. In addition, you get a mini web site with a personal profile page, client list, testimonials and contact, as well as a hyperlink to your own web site if you have one. This unique directory benefits from links with the Brefi Group site, which is well established with a high Google PageRank and has top positions for the main activities; a link from the directory to your site will raise its search engine status.
A combination of a long established and comprehensive web site, a weekly international newsletter and a free training needs analysis feature have created a leads generation engine that feeds us new contacts every day.

Why build a business all on your own?
Working alone can be frustrating as well as lonely. Consultants, coaches and trainers working independently often find their fees limited by their clients' perception of them as sole traders. You may be denied access to larger, more profitable jobs because you cannot field a full team and your ability to prospect and sell can be frustrated by the lack of support services.
When we started in business there were three things we really needed: -
The biggest challenge was that there was nobody to talk to. In the early days we found that self-employment was lonely. Just at the time when we needed lots of advice and someone to bounce ideas off, there was no-one there. Later we built up personal networks and relationships with our clients.
Then of course, there were lots of things we needed to learn. Besides finding out how to set up a business, and all the new skills and attitudes of the new role, we needed specific consulting, coaching and training skills.
Finally, there was the challenge of finding work. Many people start well, calling on their existing network. It may have been easy to begin with, but soon you run out of contacts. And how do you decide what to charge?
Membership of Brefi Network allows you to associate with a larger organisation providing professional support, whilst maintaining your independence. Join now.
