FAQ

How does this work?

We’ve curated a list of 250+ of the very best in communications, marketing and creative services worldwide. Everyone listed is pre-vetted, with years of experience in their field, and everyone is ready to jump into your project today.

It’s easy to browse our global talent directory yourself. To click through to full, detailed profiles and contact information, start a one-month free trial (discount is auto-applied at checkout). Once you’re a member, you’ll then be able to review, contact and book as many of our experts as you like.

How much does this cost?

Accessing all 250+ consultant profiles in our directory is free for the first month of access. Then your access will renew at $50 USD monthly.

We do not charge clients or consultants any other fees, nor do we take a cut of of any project. We believe great communications support should be accessible to all, and we believe consultants should keep the money they earn.

How exclusive is this community? How do you vet your members?

Our founder, a longtime communications consultant, personally curated this community of talent to ensure proper qualifications. Our vetting process begins with a comprehensive application and continues with a thorough review of each candidate’s resume, work quality, client feedback and LinkedIn presence. We only accept a small percentage of applicants.

Unlike many other online databases where any freelancer can post a profile and call themselves an “expert,” our consulting community is truly exclusive.

Can’t I just find consultants on LinkedIn? Or work with a recruiter?

Try searching for “communications consultant” on LinkedIn. You’ll generate tens of thousands of results. Asking around your network takes time, and those referrals don’t always align to the specificity of your needs. Working with a traditional recruiter can take weeks, and cost thousands.

We save you time, headaches and money by placing the best of the best right at your fingertips.

What if I need a whole team, not just one person?

You can easily find or create a full team of experts using our directory. All you have to do is find a consultant you like, then ask for their recommended partners. Every expert in our directory is ready and able to assemble a team of preferred consultants to fit your needs (and every one of them has access to our full directory).

You can also form a team by working with our founder personally.

What do your consultants charge?

Our consultants are deeply seasoned in their practice areas, and each individual charges fairly for their years of experience. Many determine project fees and retainers based on the value they can deliver for your business. When billing hourly, individual rates range from $40 to $400 USD.

Do you guarantee the consultant’s work quality?

CommsConsultants.com is a resource for connecting to top talent. We create opportunities for connection between consultants and clients, and we make introductions. We are not involved in the communication, negotiation or partnership between consultants and clients. As such, we cannot guarantee the work quality for the consultant you choose. However, we do personally hand select and pre-vet every consultant in our directory to ensure they have the expertise to join us.

I’m a consultant. How do I get listed on your site?

We’re so glad you’re interested! Check out our Apply page for more information, including criteria, benefits of membership, and a link to our application. We give special attention to applications from consultants outside the U.S., UK and Canada, as well as consultants working in niche practice areas.

We are very selective in our consultant membership, and we reserve the right to decline membership to any consultant for any reason. We also reserve the right to remove a consultant from our directory if we receive repeated negative feedback from clients (in these rare instances, prorated annual fees will be refunded).
