1 Comment - Hi , is there anyway you can advise me on how to get clients for a new SharePoint consulting company . i am starting my small SharePoint development service in the UK but i don't know where or how to get the clients from. i s there anyway for getting contracts without spending a lot on marketing of course due to the budget. so i am looking for a quick start up
Streamline how to get to the best SharePoint talent without the need for subcontractors to then subcontract to 2 other subcontractors… (I digress, but the amount of money I have personally seen on submitting a Statement of Work \ Proposal to a Federal Agency and then the track that has taken for 2 or 3 more firms to get involved to take an initial hourly rate from $140/hour rate to an eventual $240/hour rate blows my mind)

I am not a Band wagoner… My firm and all of my staff at EPC Group, who by the way are much smarter than me, have serious different approaches to implementing SharePoint in a global enterprise than Microsoft Consulting Services and the other 2 or three firms similar to them. In fact, EPC Group is near the polar opposite in approach to Microsoft Consulting Services and that is not a dig at all but just fundamental approach difference. I get the licensing and sales need of Microsoft and Microsoft Consulting Services but luckily we opted out of the licensing or any piece of that side of the table. It’s time for SharePoint consultants, SharePoint firms, etc. to ask the real questions of what are you trying to accomplish, only implementing SharePoint in a Hybrid methodology, and listen to the clients real needs
