 <title>Landing Your First Client</title>
 <link>http://www.consultantcommons.org/eng/landing_your_first_client</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;I created a company about 2 years ago to provide some legal protection when I did a project for a friend of mine.  Since then, I have decided to try and take my consulting gig full time.  I am curious if people out there have advice on how they landed their first contracts out there, and if they were able to work full time to pay the bills and start their consulting company, or if they had to take a loan out and risk it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; Thanks everyone, glad to have joined the commons!&lt;/p&gt;
