In this episode, Dr. Des takes you inside her 5-week course, Subcontracting to Six Figures—built for mid- to senior-level public health professionals with ~5+ years of direct experience who want to start (or formalize) a consulting business and land their first client. You’ll hear the full module breakdown, how the weekly live Q&As work, what “lifetime access” really means, why you don’t need a website to get started, and exactly how students learn to find contracts, get subcontracted by established firms, and write winning proposals. Enrollment opens September 25 and will only be open for about a week—then not again until next September. Key takeaways You don’t need a website to start; you do need a strong capabilities statement, digital portfolio, and sharp LinkedIn. Learn where the money flows (state/global contracts and subcontracting with firms) and how to become visible to prime contractors. Proposal writing is a skill you can master—often in 2–5 pages—if you hit the right components and price with confidence. Weekly live Q&As + lifetime access mean you get real-time coaching now and come back for refreshers later. Proof of possibility: Dr. Des earned $135K on the side in a year before going full-time—this course reverse-engineers that path.
