Work on a beach, travel to exotic destinations, be seen as an expert in your field – all amazing outcomes of becoming a spa consultant…
This is a common time of year for people to decide if they will change jobs and look for new challenges and opportunities in the coming year. Therefore, this is a perfect time to set up your consulting business after hours, whilst you are still employed and be ready to welcome clients by the start of 2026.
If you have gained a variety of experiences in different roles during your career, you may choose a more flexible and freer work-life balance by starting up your own business - sharing your expertise helps others to perform better. It’s a great feeling!
The key advantages of being a Spa Consultant include:
- You work on a variety of projects which deepens and expands your existing experience.
- The flexibility in your schedule choosing your own hours will enable you to enjoy a better work-life balance eg. for those with kids - do school pickup, attend performances and block out time for school holidays.
- The opportunities for travel to beautiful places will be abundant, usually with travel expenses covered by your clients.
- Operating your own business will enable you to develop more skills.
- As an expert in your field, you may command fees which overall are higher than your previous annual salary.
