>>Great idea! Aside from the usual staples of pricing your services,
marketing, client relations, advertising, and so on, we need to know what
the hottest consulting fields are -- prospects for growth, what you need to
know to be considered expert in that field, what a complementary
arsenal of skills might be, etc., along with such topics as forming
virtual companies.

Okay, I'll add that stuff to the list. I'll have to think about these
subjects a little; I must admit they seem a bit broad. What do you think the
hot consulting fields are? (WWW, WinHelp, multimedia?).
