Where to Get Business Consultant Contacts in 13 States

5 min read

LeadQuasar lists 1,845 business consulting firms in 13 states. Every listing has a phone number and a website; none has an email address or a named contact. Consultants are sharp buyers who sell for a living themselves, so the approach that works is short, specific and honest about what you offer.

What is in this list

These are business listings: company name, address, main phone, website and Google rating. They are not personal contacts, so the phone reaches the firm and the website is where you find the people. Consulting firm websites almost always have a team or "About" page, and a small firm's site will usually name the founder.

The firms range widely. A listing labelled business consultant might be a solo operator advising local businesses, a small team doing operations or HR work, or an office of a larger firm. Read the website before you pitch. It takes a minute and tells you which of those you are dealing with.

Consultants sell for a living, so sell to them differently

People who run consulting firms spend their week pitching. They recognise a template in the first line, and they judge you on the quality of your outreach because it is their craft too. That works in your favour if you do it properly:

  • Name what they do. "You help manufacturers with lean operations" beats "I help businesses grow".
  • Offer one concrete thing. A tool, a referral arrangement, a service that frees their billable hours.
  • Keep it short. Their time is literally what they sell.

A good opening question is about their pipeline or their delivery. Most small consulting firms worry about one of two things: where the next client comes from, and how to deliver more work without hiring.

What consultants buy, and what they can refer

Direct purchases:

  • CRM, proposal and contract software
  • Bookkeeping, tax and payroll services
  • Professional liability insurance
  • Scheduling, video and collaboration tools
  • Lead generation, websites and content marketing
  • Office or coworking space

There is also a second, often better, angle: partnership. Consultants recommend vendors to their clients all the time. If you sell software, financing, IT or marketing services to small businesses, a consultant who likes your product can send you clients repeatedly. Pitch a referral arrangement rather than a sale, and the conversation changes.

Read the rating per listing

Every one of the 1,845 listings carries a Google rating, and the average across the list is 2.8. That is a low figure for an average, so don't treat it as a signal about the whole list. Look at each firm's rating and review count on its own. A firm with several strong reviews is probably active and client-facing. A low rating may mean mixed reviews, or very few of them.

Where business consultants firms are based

The list covers 13 states, and 12 of them have their own page.

State Firms
Texas 404
California 360
Illinois 101
North Carolina 95
Pennsylvania 88
Arizona 77

Florida (76), Tennessee (72), Indiana (71), Michigan (67), New York (59) and Ohio (44) make up the rest.

The firms sit in large cities. San Francisco has 104, Chicago 99 and Charlotte 93. Texas spreads across Houston (87), San Antonio (87), Austin (86) and Dallas (70), and California adds San Diego (87) and Los Angeles (86). Nearly all of Illinois is Chicago, and nearly all of North Carolina is Charlotte, so in those states a city filter and a state filter give you much the same list.

Phone or email?

The listing gives you a phone number, and consultants do answer the office line. But many prefer to be approached in writing, where they can judge your offer at their own pace. A practical sequence:

  1. Check the website for the founder's name and, where listed, an email address.
  2. Send a short, specific email. Follow CAN-SPAM and any state rules.
  3. Call the office two or three days later and refer to it.

Our guide on how to find business email addresses covers finding a named person's email from a company website.

If you want named individuals with titles, the separate consultant category is worth checking alongside this one.

Frequently asked questions

How many business consultants does LeadQuasar list?

1,845 consulting firms in 13 states, each with a phone number and website. Texas (404) and California (360) have the most.

Does the list include consultant emails or names?

No. These are business listings with phone, website, address and Google rating. Most consulting firm websites name the founder or team, and some list an email.

Why is the average rating only 2.8?

It is the average across all 1,845 listings. Ratings vary widely between firms, so judge each one by its own rating and reviews rather than the average.

Should I sell to consultants or partner with them?

Both work. Consultants buy software, insurance and back-office services for their own firm, and they also recommend vendors to their clients, which makes a referral arrangement worth pitching.
