Balance What You Know With Who You Know !

Since you can't possibly know all there is to know about computers, you'll need to make contacts in the industry who can assist you when you come up against a situation you're not qualified to handle.




 You will want to compile a network of professionals you can call on to fill any voids you find as you go along.

You have the option to subcontract to other consultants (many university professors, for example, free-lance as consultants).

You may want to put your subcontractors on the payroll or you may simply wish to put your client in touch with your source and then step quietly out of the picture.

You may not receive immediate remuneration for the recommendation, but the long-term benefits can be well worth your efforts.






Not only will this build good-will with your client but the other consultants may wish to return the favor when they have a need for your area of expertise.

Manage Your Growth

Many computer consultants opt to stay one person operation. One of the attractions of being your own boss is that you can leave behind the hassles and politics of corporate life.

The flip side of that coin is that the only funds coming into the business are your own billable hours in any given day.

 Owners of large computer-consulting firms reap a percentage of every dollar earned by each associate.

There are many trade-offs involved in being self-employed. Neither option is going to be a walk in the park.

But the most important thing to keep in mind is to manage your company's growth. Don't get in over your head, just take one step at a time and keep an eye on the road ahead.

13 Public Speaking Tips And Ideas !

The same system mentioned on the post here may be used to memorize a speech by linking a series of thoughts to a series of ridiculous pictures in sequence.
1. Proper preparation of your  speech is half the battle.
Know your subject thoroughly then make an outline for the introduction,  main body and conclusion.
2. Start your speech with something to startle your audience into complete attention such as a weird statement or funny happening.

3. In presenting the main body of your speech get the confidence of your audience by letting them know you know your  subject very well.
4. Get your points across without argument.
5. In making your conclusion you can briefly sum up what you have just stated then end with a big bang;  recommending action your  audience should take or suggesting they change their view point on the subject etc.;  finalize with a joke that fits the circumstances, or powerful word pictures they will remember after they leave the meeting.

6. Make your outline in large print with plenty of space between lines so you will be able to look up without losing your place on the sheets.
7. Rely on your memory for the  most important points, including the opening and closing lines.
8. Practice your speech with a tape recorder and in front of mirror before the meeting.
9. Work out any apparent speaking problems or things that don't sound just right.
10. Know what you are going to do with your hands and determine the better body movements to go with your personality.
11. Continually make eye contact back and forth across the room.
12. Take time to think before answering questions.
13. If you don't have the answer, ask another question, refer it to someone else better qualified to answer, answer in general terms, or change the subject  (like politicians do) complimenting the person asking the "impossible" question, or by telling a "clean" joke.
