Independent Consultants Can't Sell Themselves???
I don't want to believe this. As an independent consultant myself, I would say that this is just garbage, but I would assume it is different for consultants from various fields. I worked in the financial industry in a Big 4 firm, and it was definitely easier to make connections and networks that way. I would say if you were in industry, and you move into the consulting sphere it might be hard. I read some articles on this too, and I don't know about it - highly questionable, but good reads.
Tell me what you think. I really want to know about what other consultants think about this, I don't want to believe in it personally but it might be true?
