The Boutique: How To Start, Scale, And Sell A Professional Services Firm Kindle Edition


What Is A Boutique?

    • A professional services firm past the start-up stage but pre-scale.
    • Examples can be found in consulting, marketing and advertising, IT services, etc.
    • It's basically anyone who sells their expertise.
    • There are 1,465,900 boutiques.

    This book is for owners of professional services firms

      • It Is About What Firms At Scale Do
      • It is about what boutiques need to do to scale.
      • This knowledge gap between those at scale, and those not at scale, makes all the difference

      There is about two trillion dollars spent per year on professional services. Those at scale capture most of it. If you want a bigger piece of the pie, you must scale.


      We Are In The Golden Era Of Boutiques

        • Clients have big budgets to spend.
        • Clients are buying from boutiques in record numbers.

        The sun is shining. Time to make hay.

        Review

        Very well written and informative.
        The Boutique by Greg Alexander is a fascinating book that teaches how to start, scale and sell your expertise. A boutique is a business that sells its professional services and has less than 250 employees. Interestingly, it is harder to sell a service than it is a product. The author skillfully organized this book into sections that allow him to zero in on the point he is delivering. He asks meaningful questions that make you face the "why" into what you are doing. I found this book informative and interesting.​​​​​​​
