With so much to talk about, let’s get started! If you’d like to speak to a specialist about machine learning consulting, feel free to contact us online or give us a call at 888-601-5359.
What is machine learning consulting?
Although machine learning isn’t a new concept, the thought of hiring a consultant for the job might catch business owners off guard.
What does a machine learning consultant do? What tools do they use? Are they robots?
Machine learning consulting, or data science consulting — is when a top machine learning consulting agency helps you to improve your business with AI capabilities. Let’s break down the definition a bit more.
A machine learning consultant uses systems that are trained by artificial intelligence to automate aspects of your business to increase sales and revenue. Machine learning consultants aren’t robots — they’re real people on the other end of the telephone or email chain.
To break it down even further, let’s define machine learning. Machine learning, in the scheme of things, is merely a branch of artificial intelligence. It’s based on teaching systems how to act and what to do when you feed them certain data.
That data is used to help said systems find and identify patterns, and with those recognized patterns, make decisions with little help from humans.
If you were to make a flow chart of the machine learning process, it would go something like this —
- Ask questions
- Collect as much data as possible
- Train the algorithm to behave in a particular way under specific circumstances (if/then)
- Test the algorithm
- ProvIde feedback on the algorithm
- Make changes to the algorithm
Machine learning consultants, then, are the ones who determine how your machine learning strategy will work, how it will better your business, and anticipate what it will need to develop a sound algorithm to get the desired results.
Throughout the process, they’ll be able to explain what they’re working on, what they’re feeding the algorithm, what data they’re collecting, and what kind of results you can expect from your unique campaign.
Does your business need machine learning consulting?
We’ll keep this short and sweet — if you want to reap the benefits of machine learning within your business, it’s in your best interest to hire a machine learning consultant.
Their job can get pretty technical, and unless you’ve trained in AI and machine learning, it’ll be tough for you to pull off a successful campaign.
Here are a few reasons you should hire a machine learning consultant:
1. They’ll save you time
If you decide to take on your machine learning strategy on your own, you have a long road ahead — especially if you don’t have AI training.
The process of creating a sound machine learning campaign to automate parts of your business can be difficult and tedious without the correct training.
Training in itself can take a solid chunk of time, and you’ll also have to plan for the time it will take to implement your developed strategies.
If you’re not familiar with the software or implementation processes, it’ll likely take you much longer to implement than it would a professional machine learning consultant.
For this reason, it’s better to bite the bullet and hire a professional machine learning consulting agency to do the job for you.
2. They’ll save you money
To create a successful machine learning campaign, you’ll need copious amounts of data to make the best possible decisions. Hiring a machine learning consultant means you’ll have to have access to tons of different programs and software, which over time, can become extremely expensive.
When you hire a machine learning consulting agency, they’ll take care of everything for you for a basic charge. You won’t have to pay for the training that it would take for you to get up to speed on machine learning, so you’re already saving a pretty penny.
3. They’ll drive results
Machine learning consultants live and breathe machine learning. That means they know how to drive results for your business.
They will take the opportunity to get to know your business, your goals, what processes you’d like to automate, and the metrics that mean the most to you.
In doing so, they’ll be able to craft and create the perfect machine learning campaign for you to drive the results that you desire.
If you opt to do machine learning consulting on your own, you may not drive the same results because you don’t have the same resources or knowledge that a consultant would.

How to choose the best machine learning consulting firm for your business
There are a lot of agencies out there that can provide machine learning consulting, but how do you choose the best one for your business?
Check out some of our tips below!
1. Do your research
You should never commit to a machine learning consulting agency without doing your research. The first one you find might end up being the best choice, but you can never be sure unless you research a wide variety of deep learning consulting firms.
You should look at firms that are local and some that are farther away while comparing their capabilities and proprietary software.
2. Find a firm that fits your budget
Machine learning consulting can be pricey — especially since not every agency has adopted it yet. Tons of businesses want to adopt the increasingly popular marketing strategy, but it can be hard to come by.
Nonetheless, you should set a machine learning consulting budget to ensure that your finances stay in check.
Before doing so, you should research the pricing of existing machine learning consultants to ensure that you’re setting a reasonable budget.
3. Consider their software
Machine learning consulting is a fairly technical process, and you should be sure that the agency you decide on has up-to-date software. The wrong data can produce negative results, so top-of-the-line software is crucial to your company’s success.
It’s even better if a machine learning consulting agency has proprietary software to offer. When an agency offers proprietary software, it means that they know and understand machine learning enough to create their own software.
Did you know that WebFX has our own suite of proprietary software dedicated to helping you increase leads and revenue for your company? RevenueCloudFX includes tons of tools to help make your online business the best it can be. It includes features like LeadManagerFX, ReviewBoostFX, PersonalizeFX, VisitorRecorderFX, and CallTrackerFX to name a few.
4. Take note of how long they’ve been in business
With the increasing popularity of machine learning, a lot of machine learning consultants are just starting. To choose the best machine learning consultant for you, you should consider how long they’ve been in business.
If they’re just getting started, you’d be better off searching for an agency that’s been in business for at least a decade. Being in business for a long period proves that they’re knowledgeable in their field, and their firm has stood the test of time.
5. Read their reviews and testimonials
One of the best ways to learn about an agency is by word of mouth. Reading machine learning consulting firm reviews is one of the best ways to determine the agency’s quality — and you should read a lot before making your final choice.
You shouldn’t let a few negative reviews deter you, but if there are more negative reviews than positive, then you should probably look to another agency.
The number of testimonials an agency has also speaks to its quality, and you should look to an agency that has 100+. Did you know that WebFX has over 1,100 client testimonials?
