Essential Items for Women to Pack for a Business Trip
As women know, packing can be a pain in the butt, especially if you are packing for a business trip. It can be hard to know what to bring, and what is just taking up space, so below are 5 essential items every women should back for a business trip.
Anne Klein Grey Suit Separates Collection (pants suit) – Pants Suit – $102.99, Separate Skirt – $62.99
- Classic Suit – Let’s be real, a carryon bag is not very big, so it’s not like you have a lot of space for a tons of clothes, that’s why the classic business suit is always the best way to go. Not only is it invariably fashionable, but it also leaves room for the many other items you have to fit into your carryon bag. Remember to look for a suit that is made of wrinkle-resistant materials (wool and synthetics are a safer bet than 100% cotton).
Grace Heel – $69.99
- Comfy (and Stylish) Travel Shoes – Now this can be a bit taxing, as a lot of women love shoes (I for one, always end up traveling with way more pairs of shoes then I need), not to mention, most comfortable shoes, are usually not very stylish and vice versa. However, it can be done. Pack a versatile wedge that you can wear with either pants or skirts. You can also go with a shoe which has a more sensible heel (think chunky, not clunky), and if you want that extra support, you can always add a gel insert.
Different Types of Consultant Businesses

- Accounting: Accounting is something that every business needs, no matter how large or small. Accounting consultants can help a business with all of its financial needs.
- Advertising: This type of consultant is normally hired by a business to develop a good strategic advertising campaign.
- Auditing: From consultants who audit utility bills for small businesses to consultants who handle major work for telecommunications firms, auditing consultants are definitely enjoying the benefits.
- Business: Know how to help a business turn a profit? If you have a good business sense, then you’ll do well as a business consultant. After computer consulting, people in this field are the next most sought after.
- Business writing: Everyone knows that most business people have trouble when it comes to writing a report–or even a simple memo. Enter the business writing consultant, and everyone is happy!
- Career counseling: With more and more people finding themselves victims of a corporate downsizing, career counselors will always be in demand. Career counselors guide their clients into a profession or job which will help them be both happy and productive as an employee.
