Great revenue, make sure you collect on time and in full otherwise you will waste business development time in collection activities which actually end up reducing your income

Thanks for the pointer!!

What direction do you plan to take your consulting business? Feel free to message me OP if I can help in any way.

That’s very nice if you. I appreciate it! Will DM
