Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
I signed up for a consulting gig. I was referred by a former colleague. The consultations are via phone, billed by the hour. I was expecting to be speaking with industry professionals on trends, best practices, etc., etc. In reality the gigs offered to me have come from investment analysts that are looking for info on my former employer. Every call has the same pattern. They ask a bunch of irrelevant questions, express complete lack of understanding of the business, and rush off the call after 30 min. Some have requested follow up calls that usually never happen.
I'm pretty closing to not accepting any more requests unless I can develop some skills to keep them on the phone longer. Any suggestions? I shouldn't be surprised, but these analysts are truly clueless which reinforces my believe in the folly of investment analyst opinions.
