Editorial Reviews

Review

"It's the map I wish I had starting out" -C.N.

"This book gave me a greater feeling about pharmacy. I love what I do but the business is very challenging. I'm always looking for new avenues" -S.D.
"The book felt very conversational. I can also appreciate that the short statements make the reading quicker. The book does reflect the content of the e-course which should be a plus as you can recommend it to those who take the class as a reference after or vice versa" -L.K.

"I like how it is laid out, simple and concise - almost as if it were a workbook. I feel as educated as pharmacists we are, we sometimes "skip" the basics - at least I do. Covering LLC vs Corp, ROI and certifications, and marketing on a minuscule budget are all areas that I found myself asking TONS of questions about. These were covered with ease, detail, and flawlessness in the book" -N.R.

"I think this is a great resource for individuals looking to get started in this space. I really like (Blair's) style of writing in short sections that is easy to read, follow and pick-up where you left off. Reminds me of Seth Godin's style!" -T.U.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you're anything like myself, and tired of your current pharmacy job ...
Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2016

If you're anything like myself, and tired of your current pharmacy job where you sludge through filling countless prescriptions yet feel entirely under appreciated, then this book is for you. Let this book jumpstart your thinking about your pharmacy career. Working as a pharmacist doesn't mean your only options are standing behind the retail counter or the hospital computer. Working independently as a pharmacist doesn't mean having to own a brick-and-mortar store, either.

Let this book inspire you, as it did me. The book is small, easy-to-read, yet chock full of important information. The author does a great job explaining how to start providing medication-therapy-management (MTM) services as an independent pharmacist consultant, and goes step-by-step explaining the different services you could provide a pharmacy, doctor's office, or accountable care organization. She gives solid tips and uses her experience to prevent us newbies from making rookie mistakes.

In addition to the explanation of how to provide these services, the author goes into depth about how to market yourself as a consultant, and how to use social media to your advantage. I think pharmacists (including myself) may excel in providing clinical services, but feel shy and nervous when it comes to promoting themselves.

But lets's be real--can you imagine working behind the counter forever? Some people do, and some people retire with big name chains or big box stores. Sorry, I graduated in 2015, and the thought of retiring 30+ years working as a pharmacy manager makes me want to run away from home, set up a hot dog cart in Bermuda, and pharmacy be damned. And I love pharmacy, patients, helping people, etc.

So let this short, informative, easy-to-read book inspire you like it did me. I guarantee you won't be disappointed in the purchase. Since I've bought the book, I've already started applying the knowledge in order to start my own consulting business.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fakespot hit the nail on the head
Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2020

I’ll be honest, I saw all the glowing reviews for this book and thought certainly this is faked and just a sales pitch for her "academy". Ran it through Fakespot and was surprised to see what appears to be genuine and honest reviewers. I bought the book on Kindle and read the whole thing before I went to bed that night. Needless to say I feel extremely empowered and motivated to "take action" to start my MTM consultants journey, and now I WILL be signing up for her academy!

This is a fantastic opening to what Blair appears to be able to offer and I am excited for what the future holds. Thanks!

5.0 out of 5 stars Indispensable for starting or expanding a pharmacy consulting business!!!
Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2016
Verified Purchase
This book is absolutely amazing! It included so many topics that I had no or little knowledge of. It includes the following: so many ideas for pharmacy consulting businesses, important information about setting up the business and expanding it after it's started, practical information about using the internet and networking, time-saving ideas, different leads to which to market your business, reimbursement options, marketing, and more. Since I want more help starting my business, I am going to take her e-course to learn more, save time and frustration, and start earning sooner. Thank you very much Dr. Thielemier! I highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to start a pharmacy consulting business or who want to start or expand MTM services for his/her pharmacy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring Intro to Start Your Pharmacy Consulting Business
Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2018
Verified Purchase
This is a great introduction of how to start a pharmacy consulting business. Keep in mind that the author is a pharmacist and not a lawyer/financial expert. Do not expect a detailed how-to on how to start a business (in fact, she actually mentions how she worked with others to work on the business side of her business as it was something she had to learn as well). Expect to feel inspired to take your career into your own hands and find ways to do what makes you fulfilled. This was especially important to someone like me who is already feeling the burnout of working retail pharmacy. This book is full of great tips and tricks that I would have not thought of when starting a consulting business. The biggest pro is you get to learn from someone who has actually went through the process. The biggest con is that she does use the book to market her website and business coaching services (which I have no doubt that it is very useful as I have seen many of her webinars and read her blog), so for more detailed information, I would point you in that direction.

Overall, this is a very inspiring book and a great starting point for someone looking to do something different with their pharmacy career.

5.0 out of 5 stars Someone recently asked me if I have a role model. It's Blair.
Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2017

Mrs. Thielemier has written a must-read for pharmacists who have believed in clinical services in the community setting but needed a push in the right direction. She outlines how the novice Pharmapreneur can set up a consulting business, find and market to clients in the independent pharmacy business and making a living providing MTM or other niche services.

Blair's style is both inspirational and conversational, and she sounds generally happy to help others follow her path to professional and financial independence. With a wealth of possible pharmacist-driven services including MTM, Blair has ideas for people with a variety of interests. For example, I am looking forward to learning more about pharmacogenomics, the study of how differences in genetics affect medication absorption and metabolism in different patients.

How To Build A Pharmacy Consulting Business is a must-read for anyone who has considered starting their own pharmacy consulting business but doesn't feel he/she has the knowledge or expertise to do so. By the end of the book, you'll be ready to contact your first clients and take control of your career.
