Publisher's Notes
In this eye-opening guide, consulting expert Ron Tepper shows you how basic changes in the business climate have revolutionized the consulting industry, enabling you to earn big bucks in one of the fastest-growing occupations of the 1990s. Tepper gives you an inside view of today's hottest consulting practices through the eyes of ten of the top independent consultants in the nation. Each of these peak performers has sliced off a generous chunk of this $17 billion pie without spending a fortune on advertising and promotion, without sinking their life savings into posh offices, and, in most cases, without hiring any permanent employees.
