My best advice would be to partner with other consultants, agencies or contractors and create a productized service that they can include in their offerings. Seek out agencies in your area and cold call them - good way to train your sales muscle without really selling anything to them.

That's what made the difference for me. I partnered with a marketing consultant and she added me to her services every time she got a new client.

The best book on this would be Million Dollar Consulting from Alan Weiss. Do your job well and then promote yourself to reading Trillion Dollar Coach ;))

The book "Trillion Dollar Coach" is on my queue to read, so I plan on using Steve Glaveski's notes to decide how to read the chapters based on needs, interests and challenges I have today. This advice is one of my favorite ways to get people to control their time and create an internal sense of urgency: "Don’t tell people what to do, tell stories and help guide them to the best decisions for them."
