Project Sidekick

Friuch Consulting has always worked in partnership with other consulting firms and sole proprietors in addition to working as Principal on other projects. With more than five years of experience in the industry, we felt it was time to formally recognize that sub-contracting is a significant part of our business. This year, we’re launching Project Sidekick - a new marketing initiative to reach out to other consultants in British Columbia and other parts of Canada. Friuch Consulting has been a valued and trusted partner to successful firms such as Rocket Builders and to individuals such as David Roughley. Why did these people choose to work with Friuch Consulting? Here’s some easy reasons to choose Friuch Consulting as a Sidekick for your next project:

Friuch Consulting can lower your cost of delivery. With competitive rates, Friuch Consulting is more affordable than other sub-contractors with similar experience.
You can “fire and forget” Friuch Consulting. Unlike inexperienced student interns or new graduates, Friuch Consulting has been in business long enough that you can throw us in the deep end on a project with little or no training.
Friuch Consulting brings subject matter expertise. No one is a master of every skill. Friuch Consulting specializes in research, market intelligence, public policy, graphic design, communications, human resources, finance and a range of other issues through its founder Aaron Cruikshank and a trusted network of associates.
Friuch Consulting integrates with your work style. Everyone works differently and Friuch Consulting works hard at the initial stages of a sub-contractor relationship to learn your personal working style to ensure that the project carries on with no interpersonal friction.
Friuch Consulting has the bandwidth to help today. By leveraging a network of trusted associates, Friuch Consulting has scalable bandwidth to tackle new projects. We don’t over-commit and under-deliver.

In another sense, having a "team" of sub-contractors to work with on your next consulting project has impacts on your business that have nothing to do with revenues or deliverables. Self-employed consultants can suffer from social isolation - a terrible circumstance that impacts your business more than you'd think. A sub-contractor that knows the business can sympathize with your lows and will be a cheerleader for you when things are going well. Isn't that the reason we all went into consulting - to enjoy life more?
