How to hire a marketing consultant 
Consider your company's current marketing needs. 
You should analyze whether a marketing consultant is the right person to hire, or if you can find solutions elsewhere. The following are situations that many companies face where they may consider a marketing consultant.

OPTIONS: + A company who is looking to increase their social media presence can hire a social media consultant. You may be able to find social media experts in your own company who would be willing to take on social media account maintenance and interaction by dedicating an hour per day to do so. + If you own the company and have a strong customer base, a marketing consultant may try to improve that or to incorporate on the market. An independent consultant may also have more competitive competition. + For example, an established marketing consultant might take on more funding if the company is in an advertising industry struggling in the middle east. A placement consultant might be less impressive of the hiring manager, because she needs more experience to create a successful marketing campaign. + Marketing consultants are employed by companies that have new marketing ideas. If you don't know exactly who to hire, you might have to decide to hire as many consultants as possible to ensure a high-profile situation.
