“Musicians play their instruments. I play the orchestra,” says Steve Jobs in the film chronicling his life. So, too, do independent practitioners who are expected to choreograph other service providers in delivering a flawless performance – at the right price – for their clients.
On November 19, Marisol Barrios and Jessica Payne will lead a roundtable forum that will help independent consultants and freelancers find cost-effective service providers and technologies – from “freemium” to premium – they can scale to service client projects and expand their own capabilities.
Come prepared! This will be a highly interactive forum during which you can ask for referrals and recommend your own trusted service providers.
