My Expert Service
|
|
Over 350 engagements working as an internal employee or external consultant "hands on" in the field, this does not include WEB 2.0 or Internet/Phone engagements. For 2010 I have successfully coached and consulted hands on in 2 start ups, one spin off and one public OTCBB company. The resulting contract closings were 2MM and 22MM respectively. I have always had varying success from simple 2-3 day advisory tasks to 3 year ongoing projects or programs. Feedback to my services has been from, "it's just been easier to work with a trusted partner" to "thanks for helping on the "Gordian Knot" of world problems for us". In the end, I'm always successful when "you" are my success. Clayton Gilman
