Consulting for Introverted Developers
summary
Consulting for introverted developers focuses on concrete moves: form an LLC and accountant for tax and liability, use a health‑insurance broker, and list consulting on LinkedIn. Invest in tooling and format choices (an anecdote credits a Windows‑recorded Pluralsight course with $1M+ course revenue). Build reputation by writing or self‑publishing on Amazon, contributing to open source (core commits lead to job offers), and by choosing to speak at conferences to attract clients and steady project work.
