Go with a quarter-page ad in the yellow pages of your telephone directory. The space salesman will help you with the ad, but remember, you want it to catch the eye of your particular client, and offer a promise of an end to her problems.
Always talk to your kind of people, emphasizing the benefits of your services. It's not good practice to quote or even discuss prices in either you advertising or on the phone when people respond.

There may be a number of factors involved in establishing you fees, but starting out with beginning and small businesses, and until you line up 50 regular clients, your best bet would be $50 per hour.
Count on two to three hours per client per day, and devoting 10 days per month to work on their needs, you're talking about $1,000 to $1,500 per month from each client.
Multiply that times 50 clients, and you'll be grossing $5,000 to $7,500 per month. As a one-man operation, you'll be plenty busy.
Insiders in this business say a person can leave his regular job on Friday, start a consulting business on Monday, and within six months, have an income of more than $100,000 per year.
