Andrea Weiss Consulting

What Andrea Weiss Consulting does

Andrea Weiss Consulting is a sole proprietorship operated by founder Andrea Weiss, MS, NCC, MCC, providing career development and leadership-transition services from its principal office at 1260 Lake Blvd, Suite 200, Davis, California. The practice serves both individual consumers and organizations, with a primary operating footprint in the Davis/Sacramento region of Northern California and virtual delivery available via Zoom. Andrea Weiss is the sole practitioner; the firm employs no other full-time staff and is self-funded with no external investment.

The service portfolio spans four core lines plus a structured course offering. Career Counseling (one-on-one 50-minute sessions, with clients averaging four to six sessions) addresses career exploration, resume/LinkedIn refinement, interview preparation, and job-search strategy for individual job seekers and career changers. Outplacement Services provide structured career-transition support for employees displaced by layoffs or reorganizations, ranging from group workshops to multi-month executive-level programs. Nonprofit Executive Search offers retained recruitment for executive director, CEO, and senior leadership roles at nonprofits, associations, colleges, and universities, priced on a flat-rate basis tied to project milestones rather than the standard 30%-of-salary industry model. Training Workshops deliver customized in-person or virtual sessions on career development, MBTI team dynamics, resume writing, and interview skills for organizational clients. The Career Clarity course, launched in June 2022, is a 2.5-hour live online group session for young professionals and recent graduates, priced at $300 per participant with a 20-student cap, and bundles Myers-Briggs and Strong Interest Inventory assessments.

The business model is a professional services practice monetizing Andrea Weiss's billable hours across multiple revenue streams: pay-as-you-go individual sessions, project-based organizational engagements with custom flat-rate or milestone-tied fees, and a one-time-payment online course. Go-to-market is sales-led and relies on direct outreach, the firm's website and blog, LinkedIn presence (Andrea Weiss's personal profile), client testimonials, and word-of-mouth referrals. There is no proprietary technology platform; assessment work is conducted via licensed third-party psychometric instruments, and service delivery is human-led. Revenue figures, customer counts, and growth indicators are not publicly disclosed.

Emerging players

• The Muse: Online career platform offering coaching, content, and job-matching services to job seekers and employers. Overlaps with Andrea's individual career-counseling and Career Clarity course offerings, but at much larger scale and with content-first distribution.
• BetterUp: Tech-enabled career and leadership coaching platform combining AI with human coaches at scale. Represents the emerging digital-native threat to traditional career counseling services like Andrea's, targeting the same individual job-seeker and professional-development buyer.

Direct peers

• LHH (Lee Hecht Harrison): One of the largest career transition and outplacement providers globally, now part of Adecco. Competes head-to-head with Andrea's outplacement programs for mid-market and executive-level engagements, especially during corporate layoff cycles.
• Right Management: Global outplacement and career transition firm owned by ManpowerGroup. Directly competes with Andrea's Outplacement Services line, particularly for executive-level and group outplacement engagements from employers managing layoffs or restructuring.
• IMPACT Group: Career transition and outplacement firm serving organizations and individuals, including executive-level programs comparable to Andrea's offerings. Similar mid-market positioning with customizable career coaching and outplacement packages.
• Keystone Associates: Boutique executive outplacement and retirement coaching firm. Highly comparable to Andrea's executive transition program in target audience (senior leaders) and personalized engagement model, though typically serving larger corporate clients.

Broad incumbents

• Korn Ferry: One of the world's largest executive search and organizational consulting firms. Competes in the same nonprofit executive search space but at much higher price points and with broader service lines; cited indirectly via Andrea's "big firms" customer testimonial.
• Heidrick & Struggles: Global executive search and leadership advisory firm with active nonprofit and association practice. Competes for executive search mandates, particularly at the larger end of the nonprofit market where Andrea's flat-rate offering does not reach.
• Spencer Stuart: Global executive search firm with deep nonprofit and association practice. Direct competitor for nonprofit CEO/Executive Director searches but operating at significantly larger scale and higher fee structures than Andrea's flat-rate model.
