Grow A Pair?

Caution: this is for first time Entrepreneurs or Consultants. You've been out there working for them and now It's your time. You are on your own,  wether by choice or force. it is time for you to take the bull by the horns. Don't be afraid of  your own authority. You are the boss now and you decide what works or doesn't work for you.

If you want to consult, or start a business you make up the hours and days you want to work. You are in the driver's seat and all rewards and risks are yours, so be mindful of how you proceed. Just make certain that your rates are comparable to others that are providing the same services. You don't want to be thrown out of the ring before you start the fight.

Get yourself involved in Associations or Organizations that pertain to your expertise and knowledge base so that future contacts could become future clients. You need to network outside of the computer screen. There is something to be said for the human connection and the bonding that takes place when you are face to face and talking with people. You are as good as your reputation, and the only way that happens is if you are out and about promoting yourself.

So get out there and make it happen!
