Frequently Asked Questions

ConsultDex is a peer community and directory for B2B and B2C consultants. Members share work-in-progress, critique live campaigns, swap AI workflows, and build smarter together — with people who are doing it, not just talking about it.

Membership is $99/year through August 20th. On August 21st, the price goes to $199/year. There are no tiers, no upsells, and no gated content — every member gets the same access.

Yes — you get a full 14-day free trial. Your card is held securely through Stripe, and you won't be charged until day 15. Cancel anytime before then, no questions asked. You'll be onboarded and given access to our WIP channel to see the types of things being discussed. This community is very early — the current sampling of WIP is just a start. Use your imagination to consider where this might go over the coming years.

Yes. Cancel through Stripe at any point — your membership stays active through the end of your billing period. No cancellation fees, no hoops.

The community is structured around four pillars: Consult & Critique (analyze live campaigns across 10 subcategories), WIP Builder's Log (raw shares of what members are building), Steal This Idea (business concepts posted openly for anyone to run with), and Mind & Business (sustainability, workload, and practice management). Plus monthly workshops, AMA sessions, and software guides.

We run on Discourse — open-source, no tracking scripts, no ads, no surveillance capitalism. It works offline, sends real notifications, and supports markdown. Can't be shut down, sold, or enshittified.

Independent B2B and B2C digital professionals who ship deliverables every week and want peers who do too.

No. ConsultDex is a working room, not a course platform. Members learn by doing, share what works, build personal authority, and move faster than the market. There are no pre-recorded video lectures.

We take this seriously. If you cause drama inside or outside the network, we have a strict policy and a review board that meets to address it diligently — we always consider both sides of a situation. If we determine someone is undermining the community or scamming others, we remove them. Full stop. This community is built on trust, and that fabric doesn't bend. If you're here to tear people down, Reddit's always open.

Brian Chappell — 20 years of direct Google access, two agency exits, Moz Recommended SEO consultant. He's built the community around the things consultants actually need, not what looks good on a landing page.

Every vetted member gets a public profile with real specialties, engagement minimums, and availability status. We do require prior real working experience. Fill out your profile after joining and you'll appear in the directory automatically.
