Re: Consulting
I did moonlighting as a consultant, it started off as an offer to a former boss who was doing independent gigs and I became his backoffice staff doing analysis, reserach and developing alternatives etc for his projects, he introduced me to some of his friends doing similar work and I did the same for them, income was good, but I had to stop because I changed jobs and the new gig had some rather limiting clauses on what I could or could not do.
never had much overhead, expenses because I had no advertising, networking was good because ppl liked what I did and then introduced me to others so it was introductions with endorsements which made for a stronger netwok.
