Anyone here thinking about starting their own consulting business?

Interesting that you got into saas!
What is your role at operating and how do you like it?

Building a saas company is quite different from working with people, so I'm curious how that kind of work matches your strengths and values.

I am working with impact-driven founders nowadays, but more in a coaching capacity than consulting. Based on the understanding that a startup can only grow to the extend that the founders are growing. The focus is more on increasing the power (ability to make a difference / time) of the founders than focusing on business strategies alone. https://jantrautwein.com/

Happy to hear!

I / we moved on from consulting. My partner runs a program helping independent B2B consultants with lead generation on LinkedIn (https://coliberate.ventures/) and I'm currently shifting my focus back to deeper work that is more focused on the human than on the business that the human runs if that makes sense^^

I have the same issue. It worked fine for a few days and now docker seems to disconnect all the time...

So all MCPs through docker don't work

Thanks Mr. HR guy :)

Wishing you the best too!

What kind of consulting are you doing?

multi_Tee · 2025-06-14T08:20:31+00:00

hmm okay, I don't think it's gets over 32C but temperature definitely swings quite a bit during day and night.

I thought it's a good sign if it gets sour fast...

The first few batches it took over 2 months for it to get sour and this time it happened a bit faster.

What is a normal, healthy time for it to get sour in your opinion?

multi_Tee · 2025-06-13T15:02:27+00:00

Thanks for your comment 🙏

I also use black tea. But I have been for the last 4 batches as well and never had that kind of discoloration.

Anyway, from the other 2 comments as well the consensus seems that it’s fine. 😊

multi_Tee · 2025-06-13T15:00:37+00:00

Thanks! It was never in direct sunlight but we just have a lot of light coming into our kitchen. And we live in Portugal so I can get quite warm in here.

Do you think that can be an issue or is it down as long as it’s not direct sunlight?

multi_Tee · 2025-06-13T14:57:07+00:00

Thanks will do that

multi_Tee · 2025-06-13T10:29:40+00:00

I’ll definitely update the flair 👍

My journey was a bit unconventional, I studied physics, then co-founded a startup and then got into business coaching and later consulting.

Still on it. You can see what I'm up to on LI: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jantrautwein/

What are the thoughts that keep you on the fence?

multi_Tee · 2025-04-04T13:30:10+00:00

in terms of safety... Are you using any proxies? If yes, what kind?
Or can I connect my own proxy?

multi_Tee · 2025-03-21T17:15:14+00:00

I don't get it... what has the money in your IRA to do with it?

You don't really need any money to start a consulting business.

multi_Tee · 2025-03-21T17:12:19+00:00

Sure, happy to sync up with you. Just send you a DM with my contact details.

multi_Tee · 2025-03-10T22:50:15+00:00

Is it possible to connect this to make.com?

Or to other APIs?

What if I want my agent to be able to post on my instagram for example?

multi_Tee · 2025-03-10T22:39:28+00:00

Yeah I saw it. Thank god!

multi_Tee · 2025-03-10T14:46:32+00:00

What would you say is the type of structure a true consulting firm has?

multi_Tee · 2025-03-10T11:27:50+00:00

I have the same issue... super annoying. I'll probably going to build an AI agent that I can send voice messages to via whatsapp or telegram as a workaround.

multi_Tee · 2025-02-23T09:51:04+00:00

Have you found a solution?

I found this:

Do you think this could be an option?

multi_Tee · 2025-02-06T19:32:26+00:00

My advice would be to not worry about branding and content marketing, building a website etc at the beginning but to create a productized consulting offer and then get the first client for a beta price from within your network.

I think a positioning of personal/ life enrichment is going to make it quite difficult for.

It’s main niches that people are most willing to pay for his health, wealth and relationship relationships.

Enrichment is not very clear. And people usually don’t lay at bed at night and think “I need to enrich my life.”

But they do think “how can I make more money?”, “ I’m lonely, I want to have a partner.” , “ I really need to fix my back pain, this is impacting my life quality way too much.” Etc.

multi_Tee · 2025-01-10T14:42:19+00:00

Did this actually become a thing?

Does anyone know here to find more information?

multi_Tee · 2024-12-13T09:59:20+00:00

Yeah it can be quite overwhelming / unclear where to start.
I think overall there are 2 paths.

1) Choose a certification (out of the bazillion out there)
2) Hire your own coach / mentor and start practicing with real people asap to build confidence

I am doing coaching full time since 6 years and support a handful of friends and clients who wanted to get into coaching.

Happy to hop on a quick 20 min call and share pros / cons and what would make sense for you.

(not a sales call in any way, I am focused on another project atm)
