You'll learn how to:

• Build a healthy client base while working a 9-to-5 job
• Market your services effectively without spending a fortune
• Respond to outside clients while staying productive at your current job
• Set fees and negotiate contracts
• Handle non-compete agreements and conflict-of-interest issues
• Develop an accounting/financial system that keeps your personal and business finances separate
• Set up and run a home office
• Learn to handle the stress of working two jobs
• Know when the time is right to quit your job and become a full-time consultant
