About the Book

The Overlooked Expert is the key to transforming your skills into revenue. Today, job uncertainty is a reality. Individuals are looking to hedge their bets against unexpected job loss and economic shifts by earning extra income using little more than experience, knowledge and know-how. This is the Overlooked Expert, the person who has been passed over, let go or ignored, but who is the lifeblood of the organization. Author Sarah Gerdes profiles twenty-four individuals who were classical overlooked experts, but who started earning thousands of dollars within three months with no money out of pocket. Intelligence, drive and persistence; the common attributes of every person profiled in this book, including Gerdes herself. When she left the safety of a corporate job, she wasn't an expert or equipped with multiple degrees. She was a twenty-seven-year-old single mother who turned her knowledge into an internationally recognized and highly profitable consulting firm. Within a year, she was featured in Fortune Magazine, invited to speak at Harvard, hired by F50 firms and two foreign governments. By year two, her client list had expanded as had her position in the industry, where she was recognized for creating the consulting niche of outsourced partner development. At year three, revenue was over a million dollars, not bad for a manager who had been told she wouldn't move up the corporate ladder until her boss left, or the company tripled in size. In addition to learning how to assess your skills, the market opportunity, competition, and establishing pricing for your services, you will also find: - Over 100 consulting vocations listed with descriptions - Step-by-step lists to generate demand for your services - How to organize and hold events to spread the word - Hire and keep good talent - Pitch and negotiate fair deals with clients - Leverage your services to products - Recognize downturns patterns The Overlooked Expert has helped individuals prepare for the worst but also realize future dreams of retirement, trips and savings through extra income. Think of a few of those profiled in the Overlooked Expert: - A stay at home mom turned organizing consultant, earning $1,200 per month working within a twenty-mile radius of her home - A doctor who consults to the military and the technology industry earning over $75,000 in annual supplemental income - An attorney who works as an editorial consultant for fiction books who earns enough each year to pay for his 401K - A network IT specialist turned business IT strategy consultant, who equaled his former corporate salary by the end of year two - An automotive technician running a 10-person shop, but who wants to sock extra money away and hosts 2, 5-day workshops a month, earning an average of $14,000 per month in extra income - A family counselor turned dog consultant to veterinarians and universities who within three years became a leading expert in the US - A woman who turned her ability to train her puppy into a puppy training business. She now grosses $350,000 per year between puppy training, boarding and product sales. - A human resources staff member who became a resume consultant, maintaining his income, but enjoying the flexibility of working from home - A former restaurant general manager who now creates marketing programs for small businesses in multiple industries while working a day job as a GM for a medical services company, earning nearly $50,000 in three years in her "off-time" Without exception, each had a moment of truth, or a tipping point, that made them say: "I have to do this!" The following experience was the A-Ha idea that evolved into the actual service offered. If they can do it, so can you. Get started today with Sarah Gerdes' guide to success.
