Considering myself a "Pharo Consultant", two things are happening to me. And maybe some other are in the same situation. Maybe we are poor at selling ourself. But it may be (as my case) because we don't need it now :) For example I don't want to advertise myself if I know I won't be able to have free time for the next months. So...maybe the fact that consultants are quite is because they have too much work hehehe. At least myself, if I need more work (if I have free time), I would send an email to the mailing list. On the other hand, we, consultants, should not only think in the near future but also in the long term. So even if may not be able to have free time in the short term, we should marketing us a bit better. So....where should be add ourself and describe a bit our expertise? -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com
