Building a consulting practice

There is a lot to consider when building a new business. How should I organize? Corporation, LLC? I have helped so many businesses grow and prosper, but what about my own? The risk seems to turn everything a different color. So I am telling myself what I tell my clients.

1. Focus on the important stuff; don't get distracted with the little problems along the way.

2. Remember what you are good at. Leverage that, and find engagements which fit, rather than trying to shoe horn your services into a paradigm not your own.

3. Build and manage a process which produces repeatable results.

4. And, in the words of my estranged grandfather, "...provide a great service at a reasonable price and the consumers will beat your doors down to get it..."

That's all for today.
