Job shop consulting
So I returned to school as a math major. I'm pretty happy about my choice: a lot of problems have direct applications to industry (I use the term grossly) and carry a hefty price tag.Plus: math is fun. I don't plan to go the Ph.D route, but I'm not graduating soon either.
I learnt about the job shop consulting concept not long ago.
It seems like it's straightforward after graduation.
A)Find a common problem in industry.
B)Find out clients.
C)Find out someone who can solve the problem.
D)Repeat process.
It seems like a good niche for someone like me who is both interested in mathematics and sales to fill.
Just want to know if anyone here have done a similar setup or have succeeded with such a model in the past (in this or similar industry)?
What are the major pitfalls from such a business model?
And if I wanted to go toward that direction, what would be the best way to do it?
Your thoughts?
