Produktbeschreibung
This is an older edition of this book that may still be purchased. Please search for the newer Second Edition "Becoming an Independent Security Consultant - Second Edition: A Practical Guide to Starting and Running a Successful Security Consulting Practice" The demand for security consulting services is at an all-time high. Organizations of all types face unprecedented challenges in dealing with workplace violence, internal and external theft, robbery and crimes of all varieties. These organizations need help in dealing with these challenges, and are reaching out to independent security consultants to assist them. Operating an independent security consulting practice can be a profitable and rewarding business for those with the right skills. Many people retiring from law enforcement, military, or security careers would like to enter the security consulting profession, but don't know how. These people have extensive skills in security and loss prevention, but don't know how to translate these skills into a successful security consulting practice. While they have some idea about the type of services that they would like to provide, they have no idea of how to go about selling these services, what to charge for them, or how to run a profitable security consulting business. It is for these people that this book was written. Within this book, Michael A. Silva, an independent security consultant with over thirty years of experience, provides practical "how-to" advice on how to start and run a successful security consulting practice. Pulling no punches, Michael tells what it takes to be a successful security consultant, and explains why so many new security consultants fail within the first eighteen months. Within this book, Michael tells you what works - and more importantly, what doesn't work. This book is specifically written for the person starting a one-person security consulting practice.

In addition to practicing as a security consultant, Michael frequently mentors people who wish to enter the security consulting profession themselves. Michael's first book, "Becoming an Independent Security Consultant", was written specifically for newcomers to the profession. Michael is board-certified as a Certified Protection Professional (CPP) and is a member of the International Association of Professional Security Consultants (IAPSC) Michael stayed a confirmed bachelor for the first fifty-three years of his life.

Not wanting to make the same mistake twice, Michael married Melanie and they now live happily with their Boston Terrier, Rosie.
