Meet your coach

Hello, my name is Dino. I’m a career freelance consultant, and I’ll show you how to start or grow your freelance consulting business – step by step.
What do I know about freelance consulting? I’ve made 6-figures+ per year for over 15 years as an independent consultant, and I can help you achieve the same level of success.
Back in 2007 I quit my corporate job – with no clients lined up and no real plan. I had to figure it all out myself, the hard way. And I did. Within a couple of years, I was earning more than I ever had before, and I got to choose my clients and projects, and have flexibility with my time.
For me, that meant I got to spend more time with my kids, and do other things I enjoyed, while working only as much as I wanted to. Read my story here.
Looking back, I could have saved myself a lot of stress and pain by planning my move first. That’s what I want to do for you.
I’ve helped dozens of people quit their jobs and take control of their future – and I can help you do the same.
Did you know…
By 2028, over half of the professional workforce will be independent (Pofeldt 2017), and that includes the professional jobs typically associated with working for a company.
In a 2018 report, Edleman Intelligence reports that the number of freelancers is growing faster than traditional employment, and is poised to become the majority by 2027.
So what does that mean..?
There has never been a better time to be an independent consultant!
Epiphany: you don’t have to be an expert or have 10 years of experience to be a successful independent consultant.
Have you ever thought you could be doing better work and delivering more value, if only your skills were being fully utilised? That’s not always possible when you’re working a regular job for one company.
- You KNOW you could be making some real change, and delivering more value
- You WANT more of a challenge
- You want to work on YOUR OWN TERMS – how, when, and as much as you want to
The idea of doing the same thing, day in day out, until the end of time… probably makes you frustrated. Not to mention you’re probably not being paid what you’re worth…
To know and not to do is not to know
Stephen R. Covey
Until now, you may have thought it was too hard to start freelancing as a professional services consultant.
You may get freaked out at the thought of taking that leap and leaving your job.
You may not have a clear picture of how you would even go about doing that.
You may even be thinking you don’t have what it takes to go out on your own…
My Freelance Fast-track Coaching Program is the answer to your freelancing prayers.
What if I worked directly with you, and personally helped you to design, set up, and launch your consulting business, FAST??
- No waiting 6+ months, or until you have “enough time” to figure it all out yourself
- No guessing what you should do at each step (or even what the steps are!)
- No figuring out the technical and business admin details on your own

How the Freelance Fast-track Coaching Program sets you up for Success
There’s a lot to consider when starting a consulting business, but you’re not alone
Quitting your job and going solo can be scary. Having a regular, steady paycheck is comforting. Until it isn’t.
I chose to become a freelance consultant, but many people don’t get that choice – it’s forced upon them. Even before COVID-19, job security was never really secure. It’s even less so now. The rules are changing almost daily, and businesses are being forced to adapt – however they can. That means your job isn’t as secure as you think. In fact, the only real difference between a job and a contract, is about 2 weeks notice…
That’s why I’ve designed the best coaching package to support you:
- Coaching Sessions (value: $247/hour)
1-on-1, or with a group - Phone or email support (value: $247/hour)
Direct access to me - Accountability (value: priceless)
I’ll be checking in regularly, making sure you do the work
- Membership community (value: $1,000’s)
Support from others on the same path as you - Templates, guides, and videos (value: $100’s)
Time-saving resources to help you with almost anything - Optional “done for you” service

How does my coaching work?
The best way to find out more is to book a complimentary, no-obligation discovery call with me, where we can talk about exactly what you’re after, and how we could work together.
I will only work with you if I think you can benefit from having me as your coach. If we’re not a good fit, or I don’t think I can help you, we won’t proceed past this point.
What do I know about consulting?
I’ve spent over 15 years as a consultant, and worked with all sorts of organisations (from Australia’s biggest companies, to state government departments, and small/medium businesses). I’ve also worked in various industries (mining, manufacturing, and telecommunications, to name a few). My contracts have ranged from 3 months to 3 years, and have see me work all over Australia, and even overseas.
I am also a former state and national president of the Institute of Management Consultants Australia – the only professional institute representing the management consulting profession in Australia – and served on the board for many years.
Through all of that, I have made every mistake there is to make, dealt with every type of client, and eventually figured out what works, and what doesn’t.

What makes me good at coaching?
I’m passionate about helping people achieve independence and work-life balance – and that usually means more life and less work (but not less money).
I’ve helped dozens of people quit their jobs and take control of their future – and I can help you do the same. You already know you’re good at what you do. I can show you how to take that knowledge and experience, and become a successful independent consultant, where you’ll have more control and flexibility, and make more money – without the trial and error.
Am I right for you?
I can help you if…
- you’re sick of the Monday to Friday, 9 to 5 lifestyle, and want more flexibility and control over your life
- you’re a consultant who is ready to go independent, create the revenue and flexibility you want, and make the impact you’ve been dreaming of
- you’re already an independent consultant, but you struggle to articulate the value of your services to potential clients, and sales conversations feel difficult

I had the pleasure of working with Dino during his engagement on the BHP Billiton 1SAP Project. In addition to his technical IT and project management skills, I greatly valued Dino’s counsel and professionalism. His ability to engage effectively and develop productive relationships at technical and executive levels was essential in getting the support from busy stakeholders that we needed to achieve a very successful outcome for our client.
Ian Peek
Program & Project Management ServicesI have worked with Dino on various projects and in many roles over the last 4 years in parallel roles. I can highly recommend his knowledge, diligence and attention to detail. Dino always gets things done in a professional and skilful manner while ensuring that the team works well together. Dino is one of the most dedicated and customer focused professionals I have ever had the pleasure to work with. He applies great intelligence and commitment to resolving whatever challenges confront he while remaining calm and seemingly unfazed. Dino is a great communicator. Even though work is the utmost priority he doesn’t forget to hang out with his team. It’s a pleasure having worked with you Dino and I hope to be associated with you once more in future.
