This article features 8 lessons from an SEO contractor about how to be successful in business. It could apply to any consultant or professional, including an attorney or management consultant. I thought this was a valuable article because one of the hardest things any new consultant or professional starting a service business has to learn is HOW to run their business. It's harder than it seems.
When you first start out, you know your area of expertise well. But you probably have never gotten training in how to profitably make a business out of your skills. For instance, you have to figure out how to price your services. You have to learn how to deal with customers, including customer service "policies" (informal or formal policies). You must learn to say no to business that will lose you money. Read the article and share your thoughts.
