You are absolutely wrong if you equate consulting just for business industries. If you picture a consultant laboriously doing workflow analysis or information technology systems; think again. Consulting business offer wide variety of services. To give you some ideas, here is a list of some undeniably famous consulting business.

1. Fitness Consultancy. Yes! The fitness world also needs a fitness consultant. Being a business consultant, you can apply your expertise to research and development and in planning and implementing policies and programs for recreation, fitness and sports. You can also work for the fitness industry, fitness facilities, the government, community centers, retirement homes, private individuals and sports firms. You can also serve the general communities, adult, youth and even pregnant and new moms.

There are people who want to practice exercises and develop routines; the fitness consultants work directly with them. Some consultants take on planning and management role. This can be an exciting consulting business and can give you lots of opportunities.

2. Art Consultancy. You can also choose to be an art consultant. If you love to buy and choose beautiful art materials, you can be profitable in it. You can make money by making art programs for hotels, companies, medical centers, office buildings and higher income professionals. While art representatives promote the works by artists and galleries, the art consultants identify each client’s different needs and budget. Consultants then identify hundreds of art works and make recommendations.

Although many art reps serve as consultants, they have limited capability. Art consultants are free to select any art work that suit a client. To be an art consultant, you will need to have a specialized knowledge of art, art sales, art scene entrepreneurship and networking.

3. Skin Care Consultancy. You can also be a make over consultant or specifically, a skin care consultant. As a skin care consultant, you can help the people understand the basic steps on caring for their skin. You can also help them analyze the types of skin they have in order to choose the right cosmetics. This can further help them on their personal enhancement goals.

As a skin consultant, you can assist your clients in choosing and applying cosmetics for a more professional, trendy and glamorous looks. You can help them with their image and style makeovers such as make up and clothing styles. You can also host a spa party for all your clients.

Although most of the skin care consultants work in drug stores, salons, cosmetic shops and department store, it’s not impossible for them to be self-employed. Numerous companies (Mary Kay, Avon, etc.) hire consultants to work for them; helping them in their full-scale operation.

4. Sales Consultancy. If you have a background on sales, you can become a sales consultant. You can help companies on their sales processes, training, strategies, marketing and sales team management. Sales people make a good sales consultant since they have a strong background on finding prospective clients, building relationships and understanding their various needs. If you have the background and experience, combine these two and have winning results for your clients.

5. Legal Nurse Consulting. You can also be a legal nurse consultant. If you are a registered nurse who takes part in litigation, you are called a legal nurse consultant. You can carry out nurse practices consultancy, healthcare professions, law firms, legal and healthcare services. You can work with attorneys, clients, physicians and others.

As a legal nurse consultant, you can educate consumers and attorneys. Your legal roles can include preparation of witness lists, helping put together law suits, review of medical records, interview with the witness and a lot more. You may work in insurance, law firms, hospital risk management teams and governments. You can also run your independent legal nurse consulting program.

Obviously, there are varied types of consulting businesses and you cannot limit yourself to these possibilities. You should only choose the one fitted consulting business that you enjoy. By the ideas presented here, I wish that you had a grasp of knowledge of what to start at and be successful in it.

Representative Lamborn had just sent out an estimated 70,000 mailers “prepared, published and mailed at taxpayer expense” that were full of LIES and disinformation about the healthcare reform bills. It’s only estimated to be 70,000 because, when asked about the total number mailed, LAMEborn’s Communications Director Catherine Mortensen, “I have the figures, but I don’t have the authority to give that to you.”

Actually they don’t have the authority to withhold that information because it’s public record, given that this pack of LIES was “prepared, published and mailed at taxpayer expense.”

The mailer says “114 million could lose their current health care coverage under the bill”.
This is a LIE!
This absurd figure comes from “The Impact of the House Health Reform Legislation Coverage and Provider Incomes,” by the Lewin Group.
The Lewin Group is a “research” and management consulting (lobbyist) firm owned entirely by the second largest health insurer in the nation, UnitedHealth Group.

Furthermore, the “research” does NOT say 114 million LOOSING healthcare but CHANGING insurers. The 114 million was a figure the Lewin Group published in June, which they revised DOWN to 88.1 million in July, so it’s not even their most current LIE.

The Congressional Budget Office completely refutes that, saying that enrollment in the House Democrats’ proposed public plan would total 10 to 12 million people.

The Lewin Group is part of Ingenix, a wholly-owned UnitedHealth subsidiary that was accused by the New York attorney general and the American Medical Association of helping insurers shift medical expenses to consumers by distributing skewed data. Ingenix supplied UnitedHealth and other insurers with data that allegedly understated the “reasonable and customary” doctor fees that insurers use to determine how much they will reimburse consumers for out-of-network care.

In January, UnitedHealth agreed to a $350 million settlement with the AMA, and a $50 million settlement with the New York attorney general, covering conduct going back as far as 1994, when they were distributing skewed information to fight President Clinton’s healthcare reforms.

Next LIE in this mailer:
“4.7 million jobs that could be lost as a result of tax hikes on small businesses”.
This absurd figure comes from an op-ed piece written by House minority leader John Boehner, who admitted to distributing bribes from Big Tobacco on the floor of the House. He says got the figures according to the methodology developed by Christina Romer, the chair of the Council of Economic Advisers. She NEVER said such a thing, and he obviously he doesn’t understand her methodology.

What did she really say?

“The current healthcare system does not work well for small businesses.”
“They pay about 18% more for comparable coverage than a big firm, and that puts them at a competitive disadvantage.”
“Healthcare reform is ABSOLUTELY aimed at easing those burdens.”
“The plan has a tax credit for small businesses.”

Watch her entire statement here.

Lewin Group Vice President John Sheils admits 114 million would NOT lose their employer-sponsored coverage AND they wouldn’t be forced into a government-run health plan. Rather, they would be able to choose between the public option and other private options, through the exchange, and “they might very well be better off,” he said.

But not all of the firm’s corrupt reports see the light of day. For example, a study for the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association was never released, Sheils said.

“Let’s just say, sometimes studies come out that don’t show exactly what the client wants to see. And in those instances, they have [the] option to bury the study — to not release it, rather,” Sheils said.

Furthermore, the “research” does NOT show 114 million LOOSING healthcare but CHANGING insurers, AND an additional 9.4 million being insured that are not now.
