Online Consulting Business?

I started a wound consultation business from home and saw a few clients before giving it up. The biggest things that slowed me down was that it was a lot of work for the same amount of money as a an hourly job.

I learned a lot from building the website, like hidden fees. Wanna open an email account? Costs more than the website itself. Make sure before you commit to one that you know each cost of everything you'll need.

If I did it again, I would start more mom and pop.

I put a lot of effort in making my business look professional before starting, to give the right image. Ultimately though, it was through word of mouth and referrals that I got business. I don't believe to this day that the website was any help to anyone in my small town. I would make the website when business started coming in.

I would have probably not started my business, only because it is hard to break into a higher income bracket as a nurse consultant driving to peoples homes. You can only charge so much for that. So I suggest having a business plan that actually shows profit to be made for you, while affordable rates for the client.
