My name is Michael, from New Jersey. I have through consulting companies
programmed
for over 4 years. I am very strong in most versions of MS Access (VBA
too), Excel,
Visual Basic, and Sql Server. My VBA and SQL skills are good, and I
have done light
work in Website updates, and the dot net technologies. But consultant
companies
exagerate your skills to the client to get as much money per hour while
giving you
the programmer as little as possible. I have been inspired to sever the
middleman. I
have done light research on how to incorporate, but my question is how
does the
marketing process work? Can anyone recommend good websites that teach
you how to woe
a major corporation in doing business with you? What are challenges any
of you
freelance had to conquer? What forms-online?-are needed to be prepared
for an
appointment with AT&T ect human resources/IT dept are needed? Any and
all advice are
greatly appreciated from this struggling programmer.
