      eCommerce Review from Anonymous

      Right after launching our campaigns with Disruptive, we saw results almost instantly. Our monthly revenue jumped from about $50,000 to over $70,000. Every key Google Ads metric improved, and by November, we were already nearing $550,000 in revenue, well on track to hit our $700,000 annual goal.

      Salesforce Review from Rishi Kumar

      I had the opportunity to work with Accenture on implementing Salesforce with ServiceMax. Their expertise and dedication were impressive. Accenture's work on implementing Salesforce and the ServiceMax managed package was invaluable, significantly benefiting our organization's operations and efficiency. However, one area for improvement would be the documentation process. It was challenging to access comprehensive documentation, which slowed down certain aspects of our project. Nonetheless, I recommend Accenture as their talented team delivers exceptional results.

      We found ourselves in the hands of QBO after our previous accountant merged her practice with theirs. We didn't feel great about the process in working with them for tax prep and pursued other help after one year. Our new accountant caught a major error within minutes of scanning through our QBO filings which cost us well over $2,000 at the time.We followed up with their team to understand how an error like that could have happened. I was assured by the president that he would personally investigate; I never heard back.

      WOW! Working with Crema was a dream come true -- literally! Rarely have I had the opportunity to engage with a partner who so actively listens to its client's vision, considers ways address the request, then magically brings it to life with such finesse... that's exactly what Crema did. With a tight turnaround time and a very public launch, Crema created a beautiful user interface, backend database, and promotional display that activated my product and made it fun and easy to use while perfectly representing my brand. I am so grateful to Crema and will continue to seek opportunities to work with this innovative, creative, and positive group of professionals.

      Every experience I've had with Crema has always been a positive one. And every employee I've met there have been incredibly nice, thoughtful, and great to talk to. They have a very cool office space in the Crossroads with great views of KC that just makes you want to hang out there! Crema seems to highly prioritize their company culture by putting on events and having a heathy work/life balance. In short, they seem to really care about people and that carries into their work, judging by how I was able to see their process for developing solutions for their clients at a workshop they held. Using the design sprint methodology, and healthy doses of design thinking, humanistic perspectives, diversity, and pragmatism, they clearly have spent a great deal of effort honing a highly efficient development strategy that makes finding creative solutions a reliable science. It gave me a lot of ideas to bring back to my own projects and meetings! I definitely recommend their design sprint workshop and can only imagine they would be a great company to have tackling your company's challenges.

      The Crema office is very cool. Lots of modern touches with a great view of the Kauffman Center for Performing Arts. I recently attended a Design Sprint workshop and had a great time! It was a unique experience and a great tool for solving even the most complex problems. I'm hoping to utilize it in my current role. Justin was a great facilitator and I would recommend using Crema for any Design Sprint needs or even attending the workshop yourself. It was also a great networking opportunity. Highly recommended!

      As an accounting firm I would give them 1 star. I recently discovered a litany of deductions they failed to consider. You will be given an EA, which is just a glorified tax preparer. They will know nothing and be slow to reply. You might as well get your taxes done by H&R block or a proper independent CPA. If these folks do your taxes, get prepared for a larger tax bill. I strongly advise against it.

Our business is unorthodox and some companies struggle to understand our segment, but Atomic did not have that problem.

      I hired OnTarget to redesign a business website, which was looking tired. They came up with a fresh new look that is very professional and appealing. Along the way, I had several requests that I asked them to implement for the new site, and I was amazed at how quickly they got them all done. The new site also performs much better than our old one, and works well on mobile. With the better design and faster page load speed, our website search position has moved up several notches which will undoubtedly translate into more business. Terry, Blake, and the entire team are highly skilled, easy to work with, and I am very grateful to have found them and have them on my team. I would recommend OnTarget to anyone!

      We've had an amazing experience working with the OnTarget team! Our project is healthcare-related and a complicated assortment of patient education, health tracking, and community support. OnTarget saw our vision from the start, but also added features and graphics we never could have imagined. What was seemingly a scary project to launch has become a joy to execute. I am so thankful to Terry and his team for their creativity, expertise, and dedication. If you are thinking about building an mHealth tool, I would totally recommend OnTarget.

      I chose St. Louis Digital based on their long-standing reputation in my market. As a new franchise owner, I initially faced challenges with advertising effectiveness. However, upon the recommendation of St. Louis Digital, we transitioned from our corporate website to one of theirs. The result has been outstanding – within just seven days, we received more phone calls than we did in the entire month of July. The team at St. Louis Digital is responsive, professional, and I highly recommend their services.

Business Consulting Firm FAQs

What is a business consulting firm?

A business consulting firm is a specialized company that offers professional guidance and advice to help businesses grow, improve operational processes, and increase profits. Comprising a team of industry experts, these firms provide actionable strategies to solve complex issues in specific areas.  

The goal of business consultants is to assist clients in achieving their objectives through strategic planning, management consulting, process improvement, organizational restructuring, and specialized expertise in areas like finance, marketing, human resources, and technology. 

How do business consultants help companies improve operations, growth, and strategy?

Business consultants harness their specialized expertise and objective perspectives to analyze a company's internal and external environments. They diagnose systemic issues like operational bottlenecks or inefficient workflows, using data analysis and industry best practices to devise action plans.  

Typically, business consultants formulate and execute strategic plans pertaining to new market entry, technological adoption, or organizational restructuring. Their core objective is to improve business performance by optimizing resource allocation, efficiency, and aligning all functional areas with a clear, overarching strategy. 

Which types of businesses benefit most from working with consulting experts?

Businesses experiencing rapid growth or significant disruption often benefit most from working with consulting experts. This includes tech firms, startups, and companies in volatile markets that require specialized knowledge in areas like digital transformation, market entry, or operational scaling.  

Large, established enterprises undergoing mergers, acquisitions, or restructuring also often seek consultants to manage complexity, mitigate risk, and ensure a smooth transition. Additionally, companies with internal resource gaps in specialized functions like HR, finance, or compliance also gain a critical advantage from external consultants' niche expertise. 

What are the top-rated business consulting firms on DesignRush in 2025?

The top-rated business consulting firms on DesignRush in 2025 are: 

  1. FTI Consulting 
  2. Protiviti 
  3. Centric Consulting 
  4. Bain & Company 
  5. Orchid Black 
  6. Vivaldi Group 
  7. Eagle Hill Consulting 
  8. Prophet 
  9. Orangefiery 
  10. L.E.K. Consulting 

What core and specialized services do business consulting companies provide?

Business consulting companies provide the following core and specialized services: 

  • Strategy consulting 
  • Mergers and acquisitions consulting 
  • Business development and operations 
  • Digital transformation 
  • Information technology advisement 
  • Sustainability consulting 
  • Data management 
  • Financial management 
  • Marketing consulting 
  • Sales and pricing 
  • Supply chain 
  • Human resources 

How much do business consulting services cost in 2025?

The cost of business consulting services in 2025 varies significantly based on factors such as the consultant's experience, the firm's size and prestige, project complexity, and geographic location. While independent or boutique consultants may charge hourly rates ranging from $50 to $200, top-tier management consulting firms can have project fees in the hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars.  

A significant number of consultants also use project-based fees, retainers, or value-based pricing, which tie the cost to the outcomes and value delivered rather than just the time spent on the project.

How long does it take to see measurable results from business consulting?

Depending on the scope and nature of the engagement, it may take a few months to several years to see measurable results from business consulting. Projects focused on tactical improvements, such as supply chain optimization or digital marketing campaigns, often yield tangible key performance indicator (KPI) shifts within 3-6 months.  

Conversely, long-term strategic initiatives like organizational restructuring, cultural transformation, or market-entry strategies may require 1-2 years or more to fully materialize and demonstrate a return on investment (ROI). The speed of results is directly correlated with factors such as the client's internal readiness for change, the clarity of the project's objectives, and the level of collaboration between the consulting team and the client's leadership. 

What should you look for when hiring a business consulting firm?

When hiring a business consulting firm, here are some things to consider making sure the candidate is a good fit for your needs: 

  • Consider firm size (boutique or large firms), location (remote or onsite), delivery model (hands-on or hands-off), and type of expertise (general strategy or more niche expertise)
  • Check their track record and review their past work, case studies, client testimonies, reviews, certificates, and awards
  • Review their expertise and check the agency's list of services, specialties, and certifications to determine its experience in your niche and whether it possesses the required skill set to accommodate your request

What red flags indicate that a business consulting firm may not be the right fit?

The biggest red flag might be a firm that offers a one-size-fits-all solution without a thorough diagnostic phase, indicating a lack of customized analysis for your unique business challenges. Another major warning sign is a consultant who makes unrealistic promises of rapid, guaranteed results or focuses more on their past successes than on understanding your specific operational complexities.  

Lastly, a lack of transparency regarding their pricing structure or project methodology is a strong indicator that the firm may not be a reliable or trustworthy partner. 

What key questions should you ask before signing a business consulting agreement?

Before signing a consulting agreement, you should ask the following key questions: 

  1. What are your areas of expertise? Do you provide the niche skills that I require? 
  2. What industries have you consulted extensively? 
  3. Can you provide examples of successful projects within my sector? 
  4. Can you share references from businesses that have experienced similar challenges as my business? 
  5. Do you provide additional support in addition to strategy formulation? 
  6. What kind of assessments will you conduct? What should I expect, and how should I prepare for these assessments? 
  7. Who will be on my team? What are their credentials and relevant experiences? 
  8. How long does the typical consulting engagement last? What milestones should we anticipate throughout the process? 
  9. What is your preferred mode of communication? How do you provide progress updates? 
  10. Can you provide an estimate of the consulting costs? Are there any potential additional charges we should be aware of? 

How does business consulting differ from IT or financial consulting?

Business consulting, often called management consulting, focuses on a company's overall strategy, operations, and organizational structure to improve performance, whereas IT consulting is a specialized subset that focuses exclusively on how to use technology and IT infrastructure to solve business problems and boost efficiency.  

Similarly, financial consulting is also a specialized field, concentrating on a company's financial health, including capital allocation, risk management, and investment strategies. While business consultants may identify issues in IT or finance, they typically defer to these specialized experts for deep, technical implementation and strategic advice within those specific domains. 

Which methodologies, tools, and frameworks do top business consulting firms use?

Top business consulting firms use a structured, hypothesis-driven approach supported by a toolkit of renowned methodologies and frameworks. Key frameworks include the McKinsey 7-S Framework for analyzing organizational effectiveness and Porter's Five Forces for industry analysis.  

They also employ tools like the BCG Matrix to evaluate product portfolios and the SWOT analysis to assess internal and external factors, all underpinned by core principles like MECE (Mutually Exclusive, Collectively Exhaustive) to ensure comprehensive and logical problem-solving.
