Paid to Give Etiquette Advice
Imagine
having a rewarding high-paying job that lets you share
your love of good manners with adults, children and companies. Welcome
to the world of etiquette consulting!

The
New York Times recently reported that etiquette consulting is a booming
industry. From the corporate world to the school classroom, etiquette training
programs are in tremendous demand.
As
an etiquette consultant, you can teach people the etiquette skills they
need to succeed in business and in life. They will know the right
thing to say or do courtesy of you.
Etiquette
consultants have many career options. You could specialize in coaching
adults or children on proper etiquette. For example, with your help,
the sloppy eater who used to offend people could be transformed into the
charming gentleman who everyone wants to invite to dinner.
While
many individuals hire etiquette consultants, you might also be hired by
corporate
clients. For example, a company might hire you to help a young manager
learn proper business etiquette or teach a senior executive to make a good
impression meeting with clients from different countries.
Etiquette
consultants are also paid up to thousands of dollars a day to present
training programs (seminars or workshops) on topics related to etiquette.
For example you might teach telephone etiquette to customer service staff.
As
an etiquette consultant you might offer coaching or training programs in
all areas of etiquette or you could choose to specialize in an area such
as:
-
Business
etiquette (or corporate etiquette)
-
Communication
etiquette
-
Dining
etiquette
-
International
etiquette (or international protocol)
-
Social
etiquette
-
Wedding
etiquette
-
Children's
etiquette (or etiquette for young people)

As
long as you have the desire, you can become an etiquette consultant.
No special education or experience is necessary to break into this career
and succeed.
If
you would like to be paid to provide etiquette consulting services, the
FabJob
Guide to Become an Etiquette Consultant
is for you! In this e-book you will discover how you can get started
and succeed in a rewarding career as an etiquette consultant.

Specializations
Business
Etiquette
As
a business etiquette consultant you will teach people how to behave in
business settings. Business etiquette covers a variety of areas such as
meetings, email, introductions, handshakes, business cards, and corporate
gift giving. You might offer training in one specific topic such as telephone
etiquette or you may design an entire program to build a corporate image.
(Also known as corporate etiquette.)
Children's
Etiquette
As
an etiquette consultant you can share your love of good manners with children.
Your subject matter and style of teaching must be geared towards the age
of the children you are working with, which may range from pre-schoolers
to high school seniors. Topics might include addressing adults, introducing
friends, table manners, thank you notes and talking on the telephone. (Also
known as etiquette for young people.)
Communication
Etiquette
This
area of etiquette covers communication in business and social settings.
If you choose to specialize in communication etiquette, you may teach people
about conversation skills, telephone etiquette, email etiquette, thank
you notes, making introductions, and other aspects of interpersonal
communication.
Dining
Etiquette
Which
fork goes with the salad and why do I have so many spoons? Which glass
is for water and which one is for wine? These are some of the questions
you'll hear about dining etiquette. This type of training is often done
"hands-on" in a dining environment, so clients can learn by doing. With
your help, the sloppy eater who offended those around him can be transformed
into the charming gentleman who everyone wants to invite to dinner.
International
Protocol
This
etiquette area covers how to interact with people from foreign countries.
According to Wordnet, protocol means "forms of ceremony and etiquette
observed by diplomats and heads of state." However, protocol is used by
all kinds of people doing business overseas or hosting a guest from another
country. If you decide to teach international protocol, you may cover status
and forms of address, proper attire, making introductions, gift giving,
dining customs, and other aspects of doing business or interacting with
people from other cultures. (Also known as international etiquette.)
Social
Etiquette
Social
etiquette involves etiquette in social situations. As an etiquette consultant
specializing in social etiquette you could advise people how to behave
at social gatherings, such as dinners and parties. Topics may include being
a good host, being a polite guest, making toasts, and invitations. You
might also give advice about wedding etiquette including: who pays
for what, seating arrangements, asking for gifts, and thank yous.
