Online Consultant

Hey, guys. This post is going to be all about being an online consultant.

Alright, once you have been blogging for a couple years, maybe actually only a couple of months, and you have done hours of research about online marketing strategies and running a business, you should advertise yourself. Basically what this means is that you should post articles around the web and on job websites and employment forums about affordable consulting oppurtunityies. Once you have the proof that you have become a knowledgeable expert in your field, people will want to learn from you. Plus, if it's something that you enjoy dealing with, then you are basically getting paid to do what you love.

All that this job really is:

1. Offering paid advice about whatever you like.

2. Successfully advertising yourself so that you get a wide variety of customers.

3. Once you get a wide variety of customers, it is completely up to you to pick the ones that offer the most money or other compensation. Advertising is key in this position as it is in any position where you try to sell a product or a service.

4. When advertising, make sure to include proof of your success and/or advice written by yourslef in the past.

So, basically that's it, you can post advertisements for your services on many places such as myspace,facebook,e-zine articles,about.com,wikipedia, and craigslist. You can also put ads about your services on job searching web sites like monster.com and jobs.com.
This really is pretty easy so you should try it out. The most commonly asked question about this subject that I get asked is: How much should we charge?
THe answer is start out at about $10. If someone accepts this offer right away, then you know that next time you can charge more. Experimentation= optimal success rate.
