Take the WIC Consultant (and contractor) Survey and get a copy of the report! Survey closes 6/10.

28 05 2019

Hello Everyone,

If you are working as a consultant, or on a contractor status, please participate in this annual survey by June 10th to provide important data — and you will also get a copy of this very insightful report as well!


Each year, our KIT List community has been a key part of providing data by participating the WIC Annual Best Practices Survey. 


The more people who complete the survey, the better the results. Please pass this invitation along to other consultants and contractors you know!


WIC (Women In Consulting, which is open to men and women!) gets rave reviews about how this survey inspires and guides consultants in their businesses, gives them insights into the latest consulting trends, and helps them benchmark their consulting practices against those of top consultants nationwide.


Everyone who participates receives a copy of the results, and entered into a drawing for a 1-year Basic Women In Consulting membership, or one of four vouchers to access a WIC webinar recording. 


All consultants are invited to participate – regardless of gender, area of focus, length of time as a consultant, etc.


Whether your business expanded, experienced a slowdown or turnaround, or was consistent with prior years, WIC wants to hear about your experiences.

The survey closes on June 10th.  


Important Details:

– The survey takes ~10 minutes to complete.


– Information collected during the survey is confidential and anonymous.


– All participants who complete the survey receive the results (normally a members-only benefit!) and are entered into a drawing to win one of five prizes (whether or not they are Women In Consulting members): a 1-year Basic Women In Consulting membership (1 winner) or a voucher for one recorded webinar (4 winners).


– Participants will also have exclusive access to LI and FB Groups with personal case study information, the complete report and video overview of the results and recommendations.


– The survey asks some specific questions about your business. You will complete it more quickly if you have access to your accounting and compensation reports.

Thank you for participating. WIC appreciates your time and values your input!


Warmly,
