Synopsis

A layoff. A stalled career. A market shift that arrives faster than expected.

For many experienced IT professionals, independent consulting does not begin with ambition. It begins the moment stability disappears and a single question takes its place:

What now?

This book is written for that moment.

In Is Independent Consulting Right For You?, John Paulson offers a clear, grounded examination of what it actually means to step out on your own. This is not a pitch for freedom or a promise of easy income. It is a practical look at how independent consulting really works.

Independent consulting is often framed as a simple upgrade. More control. More flexibility. Higher income.

The reality is different.

It requires judgment under uncertainty. It exposes gaps that employment often hides. It shifts responsibility in ways that are not always obvious until you are already in it.

Inside, you will learn:

  • How your current skills translate outside an organization and where they don't
  • What clients actually pay for and what they don't
  • The difference between being good at your job and being able to sell your expertise
  • How to evaluate risk, income variability, and opportunity flow
  • The operational and psychological shifts that come with independence

This book does not try to convince you to leave your job.

Instead, it gives you a framework to think clearly about your situation, your experience, and your tolerance for risk.

For some, independent consulting will feel like a natural extension of who they already are.

For others, it will reveal gaps worth addressing before making the move.

And for many, it will confirm that staying where they are, at least for now, is the smarter decision.

The goal is simple:

To help you see the decision clearly, without distortion, so that if you do step forward, you do it deliberately, prepared, and on your own terms.
