Select an area of expertise. Are you interested mainly in the effects of herbs on the body? Or are you a proponent of a raw food diet? Pick an expertise that will become the basis of your advice as a natural health consultant. It will give you an edge over consultants who only give general information.

Step 2
Get a degree or certification. Although it doesn’t necessarily take a piece of paper to be a natural health consultant, it does add legitimacy. So take a course or courses that offer degrees and/or certification in this area. It will expand your knowledge and also make people looking for help more comfortable with your advice.

Step 3
Set a price. How much do you want to be paid to be a natural health consultant? What is the going rate? Do you want to work for free? These questions are ones you must ask yourself before you start to work. Determine how you will make your skill profitable.

Step 4
Create a website. This website should be stomping grounds for people seeking natural health care. As a result, a title that describes this is helpful. Then content that offers meaningful and expert information on natural health is necessary. Your site should be current and easy to understand. Be sure to also update it on a regular basis. If you need help setting up a website, seek the assistance of a web designer.

Step 5
Recruit a following. Let your family, friends and associates know that you are a natural health consultant and can help them. Also, use social websites like MySpace as free advertisement of your skills and a chance to meet new clients. Be sure everyone has your Web address and understand you are open for business. Make sure you continue to do this as you work to almost ensure you have a steady flow of business (see Resources below).
