Feras Alhlou explains that consulting is just helping someone solve a problem they care about. You don't need a degree, top credentials, or decades of experience to start. Expertise and value grow as you keep solving problems.
Consulting is simple. You help someone solve a problem they care about, then they pay you for it. That's it. You don't need top credentials. You don't need 20+ years of experience or a college degree, and you don't need to be the smartest person in the room. You just need to know enough to help someone get from problem to solution faster, better, or more easily than they could do on their own. Then over time, as you continue learning and solving more complex problems, you naturally build expertise and your value grows. That is consulting.
