Why OpsConsultantDirectory
Independent consultants are a wealth of specialist knowledge. And they have big plusses:
- Fast to deploy
- Less Costly (less overhead)
- Responsive & integrate well with team
The downside? They’re hard to find. So hard, in fact, that many platforms exist to solve the independent-to-firm matching problem. They’ll often curate a stable of experts and help interview and identify the right person for the right job.
But that comes with its own problems. Independents can’t build a brand. Platforms add a hefty middleman fee for the service. Availability is dependent on who checks a platform for a given project at a given time.
Those firms help, but we envision a future where companies with projects can look for the right expert and contact them directly. No intermediaries. We want to help independents provide access to their service and be top-of-mind when they’re needed.
