Become a Director: business professionals who love sharing their knowledge with clients.
What is a Richard Assists Director?
Would you like to set your own hours? Earn as much as you want? Tap into your well of experience to facilitate the success of other business owners?
Richard Assists is the place for you!
A Richard Assists Director brings years of knowledge to the table. You may have started a business from scratch. You may have expanded a business, overseen a company for years (or several companies). You know the ins and outs of business operations.
Directors understand the challenges faced by business owners because they’ve been there before.
A Richard Assists Director isn’t a counselor, consultant, advisor, or coach. They engage in facilitation—making business processes easier for clients. As a director you’ll assist in planning how to achieve objectives. Most importantly, you’ll remain NEUTRAL.You present the information, rather than taking a position in the discussion.
Directors are excellent communicators. They have experience in a specific industry or several industries. They understand the language of business, manufacturing, retail, industry…or their area of expertise. They know how to solve problems. They’re straight shooters. They create value for their clients.
A director is a great add-on career for insurance agents, tax accountants, manufacturing representatives, and semi-retired business professionals.
Directors should bring experience to the table. In addition to a business background, you should have:
Work flexible hours and have the freedom to work when you want. Contact Richard Assists today!

The engagement then goes to Richard Assists for review. Once approved, the project is assigned to a researcher.
A sample engagement may be:
