Are you looking for a new opportunity? Thought about getting into consulting, but weren’t quite sure how?

Or maybe you run a successful coaching business, and your clients have been asking about a Social Media component…

You go to networking events and hear people say they need help with Web 2.0, with setting up a webpage, with getting new clients. And you think to yourself… that would be really lucrative, if I just knew how to get started.

Maybe you have experience in a related field- advertising, programming, sales, public relations, writing. You’ve been laid off, and now you’re trying to find a new line of work.

Maybe you just want to change your life, be your own boss, and build an actual business.

For these, and so many other reasons, you may want to become a Social Bootstrapper…

What is a Social Bootstrapper?
A Social Bootstrapper is a consultant who helps small businesses run Social Bootstrap marketing campaigns.

What is a Social Bootstrap marketing campaign? Why would anyone want that?
The Social Bootstrap marketing plan, which you will help your clients implement, is a fully-integrated, multi-channel branding and PR program designed to turn your client into a local thought leader.
Small businesses, especially professional service businesses, are increasingly desperate for help with online marketing and social media. They barely know what it is they need, and they certainly don’t know how to do it themselves.

Who is the typical Social Bootstrap client?
Your clients will be Small Businesses, primarily professional services: lawyers, accountants, consultants, alternative healthcare providers, massage therapists, private teachers, personal coaches. The Social Bootstrap plan can also be effective with people and business that produce and sell products: writers, small retail stores, health goods, restaurants, software developers.

Should I become a Social Bootstrapper?
Maybe…
First of all– are you interested in Social Media? Does marketing and PR and branding get you excited?
You don’t have to know everything there is to know about it (that’s our job), but- are you willing to learn? Have the energy and attention to keep up with industry trends and become a thought leader in your own right?
Are you independent, motivated, and self-starting? Are you comfortable in front of a group? In a one-on-one meeting? Sitting for hours at a computer?
Are you a decent writer? A good proofreader?
Are you committed to building a successful, independent business?

If so, Social Bootstrapping might be for you! One last check… Have you poked around the site here a little bit? Does it look like the kind of business you’d want to work with?

What will I be doing?
Like all businesses, you’ll spend a lot of your time (especially in the beginning) getting clients. To do that, you’ll implement the Social Bootstrap marketing plan yourself. That means setting up a content rich website, using social media, networking, speaking at seminars, and blogging.
Once you have clients, you’ll have to manage your time between helping them Social Bootstrap, and Social Bootstrapping yourself.

What does Social Bootstrap provide? Why can’t I do this without you?
