ABOUT US: The Who, When, What and Why
Established in Canada in 2003, and backed by years of general management and consulting experience in local, national and international settings, Which Consultant came about from a simple idea…
“Quickly connect buyers with the right suppliers of consulting services in a simple and affordable manner”.
Over the years, we have come to learn the importance of finding the right consultant for the right project - and just how time consuming, costly and frustrating this process can be for everyone.
This realization led us to develop and grow Which Consultant as a practical and successful solution to matching organizational needs with the right skills. Add to this the benefit of reducing the costs of marketing and procuring consulting services, and the end result speaks for itself – with Which Consultant, it’s a “win-win” situation all round.
CONSULTING MARKET IN CANADA: A Simple Case of Supply and Demand
Understanding the Buyers
Canada has a base of one million businesses of which 99.8% are SME’s (small to medium sized enterprises) with less than 500 employees, and only 2% have more than 100 employees. Most SME’s lack the expertise and experience to achieve their growth and profitability goals in today’s uncertain business environment.
Finding Which Consultant Is Right For You
There are some 30,000 consultants providing supporting services to these businesses on a project basis - 60% of which are sole practitioners and small practices. The more experienced practitioners offer high levels of skills and rich experience at very competitive fee rates. Unfortunately, buyers and suppliers of consulting services often have difficulty in connecting with each other. Lack of time and resources on both sides prevents SME’s from locating the expertise they need.
