I’m starting this thread to talk about consulting—whether you’re a consultant yourself or have hired one for your business, startup, or personal project. The consulting world is vast, covering everything from management and IT to marketing, finance, HR, and more.

Have you ever worked with a consultant who really changed the game for your organization? Or, on the flip side, did you have a less-than-great experience? What are the key things to look for when choosing a consultant? And if you’re in the consulting field, how do you find new clients, build trust, and stay updated with trends?

Also curious—how do you measure the ROI of a consultant’s work? Is it always tangible?

Let’s swap stories, share tips, and maybe help someone else avoid a mistake or discover something valuable. Looking forward to hearing your insights and experiences!

We often discuss various technologies at our company. We're currently trying to solve a problem: too much manual work when processing supplier invoices. Are there any services that automate this process?

In our office, all invoice processing used to be done through email and Excel, and it was total chaos. Someone on the forum recommended precoro because it allows you to automate invoice processing and link them to specific orders. They say it saves the accounting department a lot of time. Plus, there are reports that show where the process is stuck. I think this approach really makes life easier for everyone in the company. Have any of you heard of precoro?
