OPPORTUNITY FOR CONSULTANTS
There
is an opportunity through your local Small Business Development Center
to potentially make a little side money and help out small local
businesses.
Most SBDC locations are open to and work with
outside Consultants. Consultants will need to contact their local SBDC
sites and speak with the Director to determine opportunities. Some
sites have individuals work as part time employees but they are the
minority.
Payment is typically $35 to $50 per hour. While it
is certainly not the rate each of us works for or should be working for
normally, it is an opportunity to help local small businesses be
successful, build your resume and earn a little side money.
When
you work with a client through SBDC, your work would remain through
SBDC. SBDC is your client and SBDC pays you. Any work done would be
through SBDC and there shouldn't be any expectation by the Consultant
that they might have work downstream with that client at a higher rate.
Their expectation should be that all work with that client would be
through SBDC at the agreed upon rate.
If you are interested in exploring this further, go to http://norcalsbdc.org/findSBDCand contact your local SBDC site.
