Re: Consulting books?

Bette Frick says that you should treat your one person consulting 
practice as if it were a big company. Present a variety of services, 
have people that you can vend stuff to, incorporate (I know a big 
headache, but people take you more seriously as a corp. than as a 
sole-proprietorship.)
